You know what I meant. It was a joke. Jeeeez.
And if its not being ported sooner rather than later, what is Min talking about when he says "Before I start on a mac version I want to get all my writing functions fixed. Theres a small error somewhere in writing out CHK code. My guess is a byte on a section name\size." I figured that meant it would start sooner than three months from now.
EDIT:
*Note that I'm not asking what he's literally talking about, I just wanted to know if he is porting or if Heimdal is, and if Min is then why does it have to start in December.

If Min is doing something now, then he's doing it on his own; it's not a port of Starforge.
I'd be happy to offer any kind of support for people writing editors, but I can't work on anything until december, and maybe not even then.

I am doing something new. It is completely my own editor(Save for the sfmpqapi). I've been working on it for a while actually.

Heimdal is saying that if he would *if he would* he couldn't start till mid december. He wont have access to his code until mid december.
Anyway now I have some writing functions and have to fix an array cuz I just broke a few more things. Although I did fix some of the writing functions but not all sadly. Also fixed some reading functions.

What sort of features will this editor have? Square and isometric? Or what?
If you can add sprites and things that would be GREAT. Mind you anything would be great, all us (us being the mac gaming community) have ever had is some crappy staredit emerald. Better?

Probably to keep up with SCMDraft and Starforge.
Why cant he acess his code until mid december?
OFF-TOPIC: Qwertyditto, you have to put a closing tag to make a color show. Do '' without the quotes after all of your text, and it'll be green.

Read the thread
Anyway all my writing functions are complete. I'm going to be playing with MONO(download it right now). Once I get it to work on Mono then I just need to convert from the SFMPQAPI to the stormlib api on the C++ side and throw in a Mac Compiler.
My guess is Mono will be the hardest part.
nevermind. I finished writing CHK's and downloaded Mono. Gotta test more under Mono.

1. Its whatever Min wants to call it. Simple as that. He can make a project name for it when he wants.
2. Why would a Mod move it? We can still technically talk about SF's port that could theoretically happen in December. Otherwise it would go to StarEdit Related.
3. No. Why would we?
4. Allow what? Why the heck would a Mod not allow a new editor to be made?

Theres 2 project names representing different parts. One is "Project Cole" the other "Project EverEdit". Project Cole being a C++ dll and Project EverEdit being a C# program.
The release name, well I have no idea.

Once I get to the mac version. I'm having fun just trying to get it to compile. The main problem I have is I can't pass a buffer into Stormlib when writing maps. It really pisses me off.

Umm... okay. What responsibility do you have with this new editor anyway? You keep acting like you're actually making it with Min yet it seems like you're just an overzealous Mac user and he's the actual programmer. Are you only going to make a logo or do you have something else going on?
Out of sheer boredom I came up with these. Basically I just took Blizzard wallpapers and added the text. I used "EverEdit" as the name for now, since "Project Cole" didn't look as good.
And as for an icon goes, this is just a simple thing I put together in about 2 minutes:
EDIT:
I forgot to clean up the icon, sorry.

Cool, thanks. And I'll save the PSD files in case you change the name of the program so it would be easy to fix as opposed to remaking them.
