scenario editor?????

Kinniken · Jan 26, 2003

Brad, I don't suppose you can tell me, but I've just started playing Civ3 again and I want an editor fast... Now, I was thinking of just reinstaling VPC and Windows, but if the editor is that close to being posted, why bother?
To cut it short: can we expect it this week? Apparantly you fixed that arrow bugs on the 21th, we are the 26th, it seems to me it should be ready...
Whatever the answer (even the probable "I know but cant tell you"), great thanks for devising it!

PS: to anyone familiar with the PC editor: you can use it to define starting locs cant you? So I can make a world map "scenario" just to get my starting loc corrects? Since it appears that this basic feature only made it in the game in 1.29f, which was incedibly lame of the original devlopers, it seems that will be the only way to do it on a mac for some time....

At the moment, it's out of my hands. Your guess is as good as mine. To be honest, I thought it might make an appearance at MacWorld.

From what I have seen, no. using the PC editor on a Windows machine or in VPC, I haven't been able to fix the starting locs.

What I ended up doing was using the location tool on my kids machine or on VPC.

I could be wrong about things now, because I gave up trying to fix locations on the world maps by the time I was on version 5 of my earth (Now on version 12)

Well... since we have waited all this time... way past April 2002 ' :goodjob:

' i don't see why we don't just get the editor that is on parity with the PC version. i can't believe that all this time has gone into the making of an editor that is, even as it comes out, not up to snuff. Maybe, and i will keep my foolish fingers crossed, MacSoft is going to surprise us? ' :confused:

Because many, many, new features were added for the 1.29 editor. Thus it would take even longer to port that one than the 1.21 version. Nobody's happy about it (I'm pretty confident that includes Westlake, Brad, and MacSoft) but that's how it is.

If it really isn't "up to par", then they should give us back atleast a fraction of what the editor added to the games price -or release the pc equivalent version...

Or these babos could get off of there asses and release the first version...

Take note of the "now we know" thread. MacSoft just got bought out. It seems likely that this process was delaying the release of the editor.

Based on the sale of MacSoft, I think it's a lock that we'll see Moo3 first. Just where do you expect to download the editor from? Infogrames web site?

Actually, I'm spending more time at the Moo3 forum these days. Just a coincidence.

The PC version of Moo3 has gone gold - it was delayed and will be available for purchase in February, as will the Mac version, we hope.

I have the distinct displeasure to reside in the Tidewater region of Virginia (the shallow end of the gene pool), at least until my retirement, which is coming soon. As far as my age, let's just say that I'm older than your father but probably not as old as your grandfather.

Ah yes, blatently putting an ad on the back of my inept manual for my incomplete game. You can probably tell that I'm bitter... :mad:

Go into user cp and see if you can change it in the Edit Profile tab.
