Moonlite (or Moonlite Map Studio) is an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) for StarCraft 2 and WarCraft 3. Currently it only supports scripting and file import management, but it will also support object scripting, debugging and maybe even terraining. It also is 100% extensible, as it uses the same extension engine as Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.

It is currently in a rather early stage, meaning that crashes and issues can happen. A bug reporter tool is included, but please, only use it if the issue you have found really is a bug. (Meaning that the most people I have had using it so far has tried to use a feature, done it wrong and told me there's a bug)
Since it is an open beta, please also always keep a backup of the map you're editing. Although Moonlite creates a backup, the backup is used for dynamic syntax checking, so just have a backup to be sure.

I haven't finished the documentation yet, so it's not included. If you're used to using the Visual Studio IDE, you'll find using Moonlite easy. To code with it, you simply create a new project, and then add files to that project. Moonlite uses files that it then compiles into the map. If you want to script an already existing map, you have to create a new project, build it, and replace the map in the Bin directory of the project's directory by the map you want to edit. Preferably you want to replace all your GUI triggers by Moonlite code, but it should be compatible.

Moonlite is tightly integrated with the Andromeda language, meaning that it 100% supports OOP programming. Because of this, Moonlite supports dynamic error checking and intelligent and context sensitive code completion. (The code completion isn't implemented yet though)
Note that I want all the feedback, suggestions and error reports I can get. Although this is beta software it should be in a pretty stable state.

The current Galaxy features are:
  • 100% Andromeda support;
  • Dynamic error checking;
  • Xml object creating through Xml files;
  • Code completion (yet to come)
The current Jass features are:
  • 100% vJass support;
  • Dynamic error checking;
  • Code completion (Finished)
There are probably more independent language features, but I most likely forgot.

Global features:
  • Project manager;
  • Function list;
  • Live code preview;
  • Rich user interface;
  • Object Browser;
  • and more

The Andromeda code completion will feature enrichment support, inheritance support, class support, etc. For example, say we have a static class named "Test" with fields "op" and "offset". In our code, we can write "Test.", and when the dot is typed, a list of the members in the Test class pops up. Very small example, but it should do justice to get you thinking.

Requires the .NET Framework 4.0!

The source code is currently not available. It will be available as soon as the application gets out of beta stage.
If you are experiencing any installation problems, but tell me in this thread ASAP.
For developers, the installer is custom created using WPF and a zip extracter. All files are packaged into zip packages/embedded resources.

DISCLAIMER: I take no responsibility for any damage this software does to you or your computer, your maps or any project that you have created. Any issues with your computer, your maps or any project that you have created caused by Moonlite is your own problem.

About time, for the hours on MSN talking about it.

If only Lyerae can get it to work..

Unfortunately, your right.
The installation process doesn't even start up.

I'm hoping I can find some sort of work around though.

It didn't do anything at all? o_O
That might be because of WPF using DirectX.
You should get someone on Windows to install it, then he can send the files to you, and then try to see if running them works.

WOOOOOOOOOOT. :D

Also if you read his post, GetTriggerUnit, you'd see that he mentions that the source is not available.

Bugs
- Idk if it's supposed to, but it creates 3 folders (Compilers, Temp, Templates) on the desktop. The same folders are in the Installation location too.
- When I ran it for the first time, I got some Missing file error.
- When I ran it the 2nd time, I got the same error again, but the program opened anyway.
- When I ran it for the 3rd time, I got a Program has stopped working error during the splash screen.

Edit: I restarted comp, and it shows the Program has stopped working error.

Edit2: I reinstalled it, and it ran perfectly the first time, but after that, I got the Program has stopped working error again.

I do not want this installed to C:\Program Files.

The installer has no option to put it anywhere else. Please add one. D:

Also, it is beautiful, but whiny. Same error as poster above me. I did get it open though!

You probably should install it there, since that's much more appropriate than probably any other place, and it's sort of a windows convention.

You can always make a shortcut?

My C drive is slowly getting filled. I do not want even more stuff on it.

Every single other installer I have ever had ever has had the option to install in a different directory. This one does not :/.

A shortcut does nothing.

Also, getting huge amounts of errors. I tried pushing test map, guess what? Exception! :D

Code:
See the end of this message for details on invoking 
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Also, theres no syntax highlighting for my imported .a files. It is sad!

Edit: Some of my code keeps blinking away and back in! Demons are clearly infesting this program! D:

Code:
class Projectile[MAX_PROJECTILES]
{
	
	private fixed _angleXY;
	private fixed _angleZ; //underscore needs a check 
	private fixed _speed; //private too
	
	private static int Count = 0;
	private static timer IntervalTimer = TimerCreate(); //needs moar api
	
	private static Projectile List[MAX_PROJECTILES];
	
	Projectile(unit u)
	{
		this._angleXY = u.angle; //check
		this._angleZ = 0;
		List[Count] = this;
		Count++;
		
	}

}

The stuff in Projectile(unit u) mainly is invisible.. but the line Im on blinks in and out! D:

A lot of things give exceptions.

Word Completion on SC2, Test map on anything... Probably more. I just can't remember.

I had a similar error as the one that you are getting, but running the installer (and the program) in both administrator mode and Windows XP SP3 mode seemed to work fine. I haven't really tried much with regards to working alongside SC2; however, everything seems to work as far as creating new projects, etc.

I can't wait to try this out further, but it will have to wait for now.

Keep up the good work!

I use Windows-7 64 bit and it installed like butter (is that even en expression?).
Are you sure you downloaded the latest .Net?
