Re: SE4 Editor
Looks nice from the screenshots. There is at least one other well-developped mod-maker program out there, but since I don't do any modding I couldn't tell you whether yours is better or worse or what.
It's always good to see people doing stuff like this though, so well done & keep at it.
What's your mod like?

Re: SE4 Editor
Although a bit OT, what I'd really like to see is a better SE Map editor  .
Something with a LOT more drag and drop instead of filling in corresponding, reciprocating, and matching coordinates for warplines. UGH !!!

Re: SE4 Editor
My mod is a load of data files stripped bare at the moment (found a bug in my program - DONT delete all the techareas, components, or facilities, the program will crash). It will get some work done on it later.
A map editor? I will have to at that. How do you make a map normaly?

Re: SE4 Editor
The map files are encrypted, so a user-made map editor is impossible, or at least very very difficult.
It would be nice to see though, so good luck...
You can normally make map files with the map-editor program included with SE4 (well, with se4 gold or with one of the patches if you have classic)

Only recommended for people who enjoy root canals, have a good supply of alcoholic beverages, a carton of cigarettes, no spouse or children, a few available days off work and food for a similar amount of time, and the patience of Job.

Re: SE4 Editor
C'mon, it's not that bad. I made a map from scratch for my O&C universe, it only took me several hours to do something that should have taken 10 minutes...
The truth is, the map editor is just that- an editor, rather than a map creator. It's designed for tweaking maps already generated by the game (or by FQM or whatever).
