What you expect the New Campaign Editor is going to be like

[Stealth_Reaper]

well, some of that stuff is in the editor we have now. i heard that thers a 2.6 now, but i cant find it. Srry for getting off the topic, but where can i dl it? And, it wouldn't be cool if u started out with units without a ums cause it could b rigged, even if all the players had an even amount. I mean, thats wut campaigns are for.

to get SCXE 2.6, just search google for SCXE 2.6 Download.

You should be able to add new units, which you can completley customize with a built-in unit editor that's kind of like a 3d modeler, and when i mean completley i mean you can change every single aspect of it, terrain should have a huge range of heights like the wC3 editor except more so, maybe like 255 even and a option to scale the terrain however much you like, and you should be able to put anything anywhere, like a bridge between 2 mountains, terrain should be truly 3d as in you could make a tunnel through a mountain and if you played it the mountain would become semitransparent where there were units under it, and you could also make things like caves, and the ability to plave wells or fences or whatever that can be shot at to destroy them but like units you can change how much health each part of the wall has (these walls should also be buildable in-game), individual unit stats should be editable like master virus said, and there should be triggers to change terrain, lyou could either make another mini-terrain in the same map but not on the map, and you could have the trigger change replace what is at a specific location with that terrain, or you could specify exactly what it would be changed to with the trigger editor using a scripting language, locations would be much fancier: they could be "painted" which means you could set a brush size and paint it on the map and it would make it part of a location which you would select in a drop down box with one of the options being "New Location", if you picked that it would pop up a box asking for a name, or you could use a line tool to draw a straight-edged shape, or you could use a combination, and of course all the other neat features that I can't think of right now.

Starcraft X-tra Editor version 2.6​

Just a more advance version of Starcraft X-tra Editor 2.5. This version can be bad for you because the the trigger screen takes up the whole screen. You need to be under 1024 x 768 pixels to view the trigger screen.​

Unless sc2 isnt't be an rpg (IT BETTER NOT) there should be an editor. I expect it to a combination of a working starforge, SCXE 2.5/2.6 and GUEdit with an option of creating more varying terrain (like jungle,space...)to make it more interesting and have the option of day and night (like in warcraft 3).

 

[R[s]T]

MAN! if its like wc3, im not gonna use it.. so damn complicateing...

 

[panthr_dude]

wish the editor would have the ability to make short movies or clips like in W3 and also to create a few units of your own like a Ling with a tanks CANNON...*LOL* would be kind of :rollie freaky:rollie looking, but kool though its kind of impossible but somthing like that would be nice

Be able to make new players, like you know how theres only 8 players? And you know how people who make defense maps and stuff try hard to use the Player 12 player?....yer, able to add more players...

that would be nice only it would kind of be laggy if alot of people were in one game...but still kool

kool SMILLY->:lucifer

 

[DEAD_PeASENT]

make it like wc3 editor except bigger

 

[iamshort]

Actually, I would hate it if it was like the wc3 editor. I can understand the bloody thing!!!! I mean, this is wayyyyyyyyyyyyy off topic, but how do you make some bloody stupid cinamtics?
Yeah... I would like the new SC2 editor to allow you to make cinamatics like the one's in the intro.(you know, the really cool ones, not the clunky Wc3 ones. The ones with real looking guys and grahpics) That would so cooooooool.

 

[Zz.cOoL.zZ]

I hope we have the terrain things like sf and we can have the sprites and that they work also i would like the move location thing be able to select one specific unit then you could do tons of different things and i like master virus's idea of changing just the specific units stature then you could actually have like an army campaign and that would be so sweet!

 

[KillerMe]

I think the program for SC is called Arsenal 3, but I think it would be cool if the campagain editor would have all the features that Aresenal 3 has (without making a mod for it).

 

[Moof-Ader]

Starcraft 2 is going to have a way cooler design as a campaign editor. There is going to be way more stuff you can do and other cool units. If they are going to make a Starcraft 2, it better be good otherwise I'll be mad.

 

[Gpstar92]

I think there should be a graphics screen which shows a 3-d model of the unit and you can modify the unit. Like how much blood it spills or customize your own color. You could also add other unit parts to it. Also it should change the weapon like for a marine you could change it to a shot gun or claws instead of a machine gun. It would be cool.

.:edit:.
There should also be a doodad graphics screen where you can modify doodads and/or you could make your own doodads. Like broken down homes and stuff. It would be better than the crummy doodads they give us in starcraft and expansion.

 

[God Illuvatar]

I think the biggest thing that it needs, which many of you already said, is the ability to modify units, and then to have a camera that could move anywhere at will over the map, enlarging the characters so we can see all the cool details done by people.

 

[Gpstar92]

OoOoO i got a good idea. There should be a chooser which rotates the terrain so you won't have stinky diamond terrain.

If you can't understand the WC3 editor, you will never be able to make a cinematic.

I would be impressed if you could actually create new spells, that aren't based off of other ones. WC3 does this, and it can really become a pain in the a$$.

 

[None293823]

Aragorn you are incredible!How do you follow whenever somwbody posts something about war3.

Around Starcraft Broodwar that i used to play 5 years ago,i made some perfect scenarios with use map settings-briefing,changes in the map options and triggers.Indeed the warcraft map Editor is hard i myself dont know how to use most of the triggers,what you can do in WC is above your fantasies.

I think you shoudnt argue with me and Aragorn.I know SC better than some of you and wrarcaft (2001) how does this sound?

If you doubt that the War3 Editor is better than every other editor that exists in the world for any strategy game,let me prove it

 

[Supa]

The wc3 editor is actually very easy to understand once u get the hang of it and variables.

Like to create a Peon and only a peon go to a certain region and then make a footman faciing whatever degrees at region

Event=Player 1 brings 1 unit to X
Conditions=Triggering Unit = peon
Actions=Create 1 Footman at X facing X Degrees

(Replace X with correct information)
Its kind of hard but, it gets alot easier.

Starcraft has been declared a dead game, that means further work to the syntax has stopped, which means no starcraft 2, I was heavily dissapointed. But i could try modifying starcraft to accept a few new buildings and units! With some help, im not perfect though, I could give you guys a taste of a new starcraft! It will start out with a ton of flaws but over time it will be in working condition! I already have cloaked overlords! It took me 3 months!
