Editing Spells, Items, Units and so on without using WE

[Regno]

Hello,

As the title says, does anyone know a way to edit a maps units, items or abilities, without using World Editor? I used W3M Master but I can't say I'm a fan of it.


I'm getting tired of opening my map with World Editor all the time because its so slow and was wondering if theres a tool where I can do this, for example W3M Master. But once again, I'm not a fan of that program. xD

Thanks.

Sure, WurstScript allows you to develop maps completely without the world editor.

Objects are generated in code like so:
EBR/BasicSpells.wurst at 8b6fd034d36f42c0047cd17e4c1b89929a691496 · Frotty/EBR · GitHub

The stdlib contains natives and presets for this see here:
WurstStdlib2/objediting at master · wurstscript/WurstStdlib2 · GitHub

To get the asset paths, use:
WurstStdlib2/Assets.wurst at master · wurstscript/WurstStdlib2 · GitHub

Icon browser maybe to come in the future.

This way you only need the editor for terrain and scenario infos (name, description, players, forces - which will also be added to wurst config eventually)

Thanks. Will familiarize myself with Wurst once I have time, meanwhile, is there other ways to edit my map without WorldEditor aside from Wurst or W3M Master?

Check out the tools section?
e.g. War3 Object Editor 0.7.1

But I havn't tested any.

The Object Editor looked very promising, however, it appears that the tool can't open up maps that has been Widgetized.

If the map has been widgetized, the WorldEditor object editor can't load it either.
Also when widgetized the object data is converted to plain text slk tables, which you can manually edit without any additional tool.

Yes, I can edit the slk with slk editors like War3slk editor, Microsoft Office Calc and so on. But I was just wondering if there was a tool or program out there which is almost like W3M Master but without lag on importing, adding abilities (basically any changes) and so on.

War3 Object editor looked very promising, just too bad it didn't work out as intended. :/
