The Mac Editor

[Deadman_Forever]

Hey People,
I just signed up yesterday, and after looking though all the most of the Mac threads, I'm completely confused. What I would like to know is, 1.) Is there an editor, 2.) What systems will it work for (OS X, OS 9.x) 3.) How can you edit the "civ3mod.bic" file, which is like the "Rules.txt" for Civilization 2 3.) How can you edit saved games, and finally 4.) when is the editor going to come out? An approximation is fine, but don't give a guess unless you actually have personal knowledge of the project.


Thanks,

Deadman_Forever

Hi,
1.) No
2.) OS X only
3.) yes
4.) Not sure if you can with civ3Edit, but possibly.
5.) Brad Oliver is currently working on the 1.21f upgrade patch for Civ 3. He is doing this for free. Last I heard he plans to have it out in the next couple weeks. Once that is done, he will likely finish work on the Mac Editor (which he is also doing for free). I have no clue how long it will take him, but since he is doing this for free, I personally don't care how long it takes as long as it is this year.

Just in case you want to know the editor is currently in alpha stage, so don't expect it to soon.
