A new World Editor

[Zoxc]

I'd imagine your program is going to be very buggy, but, oh well.

Are you going to attempt to fix all of Blizzard's badness in the editor, ie the bugs, the stupid things editor does, etc.

Yes I'm going to recreate the bugs so I can fix them.

Zoxc how much time and effort will you spend on the terrain editor? An 2d one or a complete recreation of the WE's 3d one?

I will not make it in 3D for the inital release atleast.

would be nice if the was a trigger reset button.. like reset a countdown timer

What do you mean?

 

[Darksol]

like if u added an action to the already pre-made blizzard has. i mean like in the Actions list, there is no Action thats a reset trigger for countdown timers or reset at all

Total pwnzord Zoxc, though 2D editor would be a bit incomplete... Besides, why it is called Taur's while you're working on it?

i am not sure if this was said (i didn't read page 2 and 3), but u should add a way to convert .blp to .tga. and .tga to .blp . also, there should be a way to move units faster than just one at a time, that is SO annoying (units in meaning the whole unit editor).

also, there should be a away so that u can se e on the bodom of the screen how much space u have left for the map (max is 4mb). And a protector built in. also, a way to get back from JASS coding.

hmm lemme see...

a way to see the map as if it was in the game, for screen shots. Examples of complex triggers. such as save load, or non complex triggers, such as timers. that are preset. and a away to do a preset - ally all.

he said on wc3c that he doesn't want to have the name resemble his nick.

 

[Kadgar]

new idea, u know hwo ppl here post the code for triggers and such? there shoudl be a way for the program to regignize it, would save a ton of time.

Map protection detection? I hate it when a map doesn't have the words protected in its filename then when I go to open it, it is protected. Not sure if its possible but it would b awesome

Yea you are reading my mind..

Exept that all looks perfect keep up the good work

Can you make it possible for the user to determin the order each 'trigger' (a GUI trigger, not jass object) have in the war3map.j file, or atleast make the triggers have the order they have in the trigger editor without needing to reload the editor?

And ofc a syntax checker that doesn't crash and does give the right error warnings ^^

 

[Kadgar]

how about check for trigger loops, (this was a problem for one of mymaps, i entered a region and the game stoped because the user was put in a never ending loop between 2 regions, but i am not sure it would be helpfull in all cases)

Also, can there be a way to put JASS back to the other format? that would help so that code here could be pated in JASS then shown there in a user-friendly format.

--i remember about the help cestion thing but maybe u can make a .chm . i have a few friends that could make some imgs if needed.

It would be cool if you were able to implement a save and load feature. I haven't delt with the workings of the save and load code.

 

[Kadgar]

is there a way to be able to make this so that people can add thier own features that are not included in the release (btws can the terrianing work the same way as the other world editer just that the terrian plate things should be able to show all of them.

What do you mean by unit editor? Object editor? You move units there? Oo

You can see the map how it would look in the game (I think it was V button, but I'm not sure, time passed since my last adventure with WE).

I will save the trigger in the order they apear in my editor. Also I might use PJASS for syntax checking.

You mean like for the map browser?

when the editor is finished were to download it?

At www.wc3campaigns.net

is there a way to be able to make this so that people can add thier own features that are not included in the release

You mean like plugins? I might add that.
