What is the difference between Kmakemultires and MakeVtour Multiress

Hello every body,
I would like to know What is the difference between Kmakemultires and MakeVtour Multiress.
I know the MakeVtour, makes by default little thumbs, also embed the licence, and export a final swf. What i mean is:
What is the difference on the final result of the tiles and images?
Wich one is faster for downloading on the web?
There is levels on both, is there any difference there?

i know is a lot of questions, but i have no clue...

Thank you,
Nico

Kmakemultires.exe is actually the program that converts for the following tools.
kmakemultires.config contains a complete explaination of all of the options in the templates.

Here is my understanding of each tool. There may be different settings in each one but you can customize it to your specs.
(tools that output customizable XML files)
MAKE PANO (MULTIRES) DROPLET Output is multi levels and has an xml file for each panorama
MAKE PANO (TILED) DROPLET single level, (possibly) sliced into smaller sections
MAKE PANO (NORMAL) DROPLET single level, 6 cubes

*Edit*
MAKE VTOUR (NORMAL) DROPLET combines all xml info into one xml file using scenes, 6 cubes
MAKE VTOUR (MULTIRES) DROPLET combines all xml info into one xml file using scenes, multi levels
*End Edit*

(SWF OUTPUT TOOLS)
MAKE PANO (SINGLE-SWF-MULTIRES) DROPLET SWF output, Multi levels, no xml
MAKE PANO (SINGLE-SWF-TILED) DROPLET SWF output, single level, (possibly) sliced into smaller sections, no xml
MAKE PANO (SINGLE-SWF) DROPLET SWF output, no xml


The above notes are my observations, I may have missed a point or two.

Hi,

right, the tools behind all "MAKE ###" droplets is the kmakemultires tool,
the only difference between all these droplets is the used ".config" file,
there the settings for the kmakemultires.config were stored,

and when the kmakemultires tool is used directly - then the default config file,
the kmakemultires.config, will be used,

see in the templates folder for the config files,
they are named similar to droplets,

and here is also a short description of the most used droplets:

best regards,
Klaus
