editor

It's been some years since Stormgate was announced as a project and since we're a modding and mapping community, we'd surely be curious what other games and editors are or will be out there. Seems similar to StarCraft II's.

Hi. I could really use some help with my custom map that crashes after several minutes. There doesn't seem to be a specific action, model, or trigger causing the game to crash when playing, but it always crashes after a while. I can save throughout, load after a crash, and continue playing, but...

Hello folks, I have 1.26a Warcraft + JNGP207 set up on my PC and it works fine. I copied my whole directory to another computer and certain features only work on a few maps. There are no apparent commonalities between these maps, but JNGP is consistent: if it works with a melee map Booty Bay...

I'm trying to find out how to create a transmission on the StarCraft 2 editor with Mira Han's portrait and Matt Horner's. Neither of them have a unit that uses their portrait, so how do you create a transmission for them? I'm also wondering if it's possible to access voice lines from the co-op...

Hey guys! I am a patient person so I thought Blizzard would implement a "Custom campaign" button in the main menu, as they did with Vanilla. But we're now, one year after the release, and I still don't see anything like it. As I would very much like to play my custom campaigns again and others'...

I have a map, in which I have one section that is like a tower defense. As such, I have a maze, from where units spawn in Region A, and walk to Region B. Obviously, along this path, they will take damage from towers. Upon reaching around 55% health, I would estimate, these units begin walking...

What purpose does the 'Normal Skin' and 'Hero Skin' serve on the Object editor and how do I tap into that? Is there a way to set a skin for a single unit that one can easily swap from and to that changes the spells? or am i misunderstanding what those features mean?

With the recent patch I just discovered a major problem with the map I'm making for the Mini Mapping Contest #16 - Mini RPG. As soon as I click on the Doodads-tab in the Object Editor my entire World Editor crashes. I can't remember if I looked at the Doodads-tab in the BETA, but my World...

So Reforged just launched, and to celebrate I'm going to do a complete 180 and look to the past. More specifically, with the launch update, the WC3:Classic and WC3:Reforged launchers seem to have merged together, and now both launch from the battle net client. To get the classic look you need...
