Still can't see it. Can you explain to us what the editor does? I may want to use it.

Please try the link again. I can't explain why the embedded code doesn't work.

Yeah, it works now, and this looks like a very useful tool!!! Seems that I have to get my ToT copy back...

Can you say something more about this editor? When will it be finished? And can we also change the special unit flags from ToT in an easy way?

Very, very, very nice! Miner, you will cause many, I hope, to make scenarios in ToT. I may make one or two for ToT as well in the near future.

Good work, miner! It's another argument to use ToT for new scenarios! I always wondered why there are relatively few ToT scenarios, I assume the reason was the lack of any good editing tools.

BTW, speaking of ToT, what is the exact size allowed for events.txt?
Have you considered adding an events handler tool in the next version? Or what are your plans? I'm looking forward to the first release...

Let's all congradulate the person who would do what Microprose would not. So when is the map editor coming out?

I am sorry, I don't know how to make a map editor.

I have discovered nothing extra about hex editing ToT. I am hoping that the stuff discovered for FW stands for ToT. Nearer the time I will ask the help of people better able to do the actual hacking*.
Once the bytes offsets are discovered I can automate this process (you will have a menu and you will choose a scenario file to hack) at the click of a button. It is nothing special, it is the same process by which I can edit the bitmaps. I have already tried this as proof of principle (albeit with a FW scn) to give barbarians democracy, as per recent postings.
However, all this will not be until release 2!

*PS Allard, this means you!

Is the screenshot from a real, working version or just a mock up? Just curious. Keep up the good work. Now, back to my dimly lit computer to work on my scenario.

AWESOME!!!

Now I can finally make some decent scenarios for ToT without spending 600 hours to do it...

I think I'll switch to ToT for scenarios when I figure out how to make them work (I have the patch and they still won't function. Argh.) So in the meantime, its FW for now.
