Staredit Network

ok, i'm making a map and i have 3 differnt map making things i have:

* Scmdraft 2.0 (beta 0.6.0)

* SC X-tra Editor

* StarFroge Pluse

Those are the 3 map making progames i have as well as the orgianl Starcraft campaign Editor. I have a good idea for a map, but i dont know wich progame to use. Or, should i use all 4 to make a map? Or i could use all of the but starcraft campaign editor? Well? wich one should i use???

I use X-Tra normal mode for terrans and unit placing, for further units placing, i use Special mode at second and i finish with SCMDraft2 for the terrans and sprites... (i use X-tra editor for triggers and locations)

i use scmd2 for terrain, unit placement and sprites and Xtra(special mode) for triggers and unit placement.

due to some problems with with switching between editors, i usually use them in this order:

scmd2(basic terrain, basic unit placement)
xtra(triggers, some more unit placement)
scmd2(sprites, extended terrain, advanced unit placement, and touchup trigger work)

after i finish with xtra, i usually don't go back because xtra will remove sprites and stacked units.

I use SCMD for everything except the briefing, which I use SF for. So you should use SCMD; it has everything that Xtra and SF has (except for stupid briefings... )

Well if your making a map without starforge just forget about custom terrain and stuff..

I never see any use for scxe anymore

wth are you talking about? haven't you ever heard of SCMD2 with rectangular terrain...

wth are you talking about? haven't you ever heard of SCMD2 with rectangular terrain...

lol zeratul..hmm your my role model ima be just like you
wth have you heard of no double posting
wth have you heard of no double posting

and since when could scm make terrain like starforge? (sure scm's isom doesent screw up terrain) but ive never been able to do squat with scm's terrain
hmm maybe ive got a old version..

Use SCMDraft2. It can do everything SF can do (better too), except for briefings.

It also doesn't mess up your ISOM like SF does.

EDIT:

fr0St_LunaTiC: I really can't see what flaming does in this case. Anyway, look at this:



Also of course:

SCMDRAFT2 has zooming, creep, plyon auras, ISOM that works, TWO trigger editors, Fog of war, rectangular terrain, tileset indexed terrain, and can copy paste terrain and units.

1, it seems ive got a crappy old version of scm
2, i wasnt flaming if you want flaming i can pm you with it but its hot so iduno y'd u want it
3, im just here for the pie.



edit- WOOOAH copy and paste thats soooo gooooood (not sarcasm)

I use starforge for square tile only, the triggers and other stuff is ezer to do in xtra editor. It also would help if you told us what ur doin... gl

Ok... listen frost lunatic, i guess you did'nt understand; We are not talking about scm, we are talking of SCMDraft2, if SCM is how you call SCMD2 its messing me up, and if you just dont know SCMD2, you should know that you can download it in the DLDB and its the same as SF(StarForge) but in better ('cept for briefing)

So, i hope you now know what SCMD2 is or know that saying scm mess somme ppl up!

This is not flaming, i"m just explaining something to you

SCMDraft 2 i most likely use now. I agree with everything MindArchon Posted. SCMDraft helps alot. Thanks SI.




Also, Starforge Plus is not as good as StarForge 2.2. Not that it matters or anything.
