If the Marauders weren't so mean to Snape would he have been nicer to Harry.

I think there are a lot of factors that contribute to Snape's mean behaviour towards Harry. While the bullying he experienced at the hands of Harry's father might have been a major contributing factor, this is not solely the reason for his frankly horrible treatment of Harry. Though I agree that he might not have been as terrible to Harry, if James had not been such a bully.
