[xxxWWFANxxx]

Nice Warcraft 3 editor....

[BubbyChanDeviantART]

hahaha.. thats same like warcraft 3.. but, can we SAFE the game with the REAL GAME?

[Deniiel01]

[masterxilo]

@Deniiel01 Thanks, appreciate it.

[KMT698]

warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor warcraft editor... try out reading the top comments...

[masterxilo]

@KMT698 It's funny indeed, but this is really just using the same ground textures.

[SulaimanWar]

just one question before i download,can you create your own unit in this software

[masterxilo]

@SulaimanWar No. Well you could change the model files, but that's way too complex. You can when I release the source code. So there's no built-in easy way to add unit types.

Or do you mean can you place the units by yourself? If that's the question, then yes.

[leonSkennidy]

i think its warcraft world editor

[Real45ish]

@leonSkennidy it's not. It's made in game maker.

[kitchaki]

Seems legit.



[SuperKorou]

NICE

[BasementBird]

this is a warcraft 3 editor dumbass xD

[masterxilo]

@BasementBird No it's not, it's just the same textures - I made this and it's not compatible with Warcraft 3 maps. Download it and see for yourself.

[iZotair]

@BasementBird i was going to say that.

[TheGameStrike]

lol this looks like the war3 world editor

[HoNomgLan]

Warcraft IV xDD

[condexa1999]

men i want to make a game like command & conquer

[TheKingMartin25]

@condexa1999

Generals Zero Hour FTW !!!

[kyle22521]

do u have to download the fcuking sprites

[ZoomoU1]

unity 3d is beter

[therealattacka]

@ZoomoU1 This engine is made by 1 person while Unity 3D is made by 50+ persons.

This engine whas probably made in less than 6 months while Unity have been developed for several years.

Hands up.....

[nightthewolfhanyou]

^^; not an engine... dammit. xD!

[SimonMOak]

curious... Why does it look like WC3 editor?? like people said? Is this built in Game Maker? Or did you made that editor?

[masterxilo]

@SimonMOak I used the Warcraft 3 terrain textures.

[ktaker233]

@masterxilo CAn you make an online game with this? Like an mmorpg?

[masterxilo]

@ktaker233 Well this is not a game engine.

[ktaker233]

@masterxilo T.T

[TheVikiLaki]

@masterxilo always when I enter the editor it says unekspected error has occured when running the game . help plz

[ktaker233]

can you make an online came with this?

[0Ramiel]

It looks to me from this that your melee units AI is pretty retarded.

[puttemm]

h u r r i c a n e - e y e tk

[masterxilo]

@puttemm Thanks for that shortcut

[2DKnight]

I have a few Qs and Comments:

1; Are the sprites really elaborate 2D images or 3D models?

2; Are there any expansions to GM used or was this all with the base program?

3; What version of GM did you use?

4; What are the requirements on your system to run it?

5; If they are 3D models what are the limitations on the models vertices and

---movement?

6; Again if they are 3D models, how did you design them? or did you import them,

---and if so what file type are they?

[masterxilo]

@2DKnight

1: What sprites? The models are 3D, the interface is 2D.

2:Just the base program and built-in 3d functionality.

3: 6,7 and 8

4: It works on almost every computer with windows xp and also runs at almost the same speed (because of gamemaker)

5: I use switching models to do the animation so it's basically per-vertex animation which can be anything. As for the vertices, I think gamemaker has a limit of 65k, but the models used are pretty lowpoly.

[2DKnight]

7; Lastly; what was your method for save/loading and importing and exporting?

Overall I think this looks awesome for GM. I had no idea it was capable of 3D quality this good. It gives me new ideas for my own projects and inspires me to delve into 3D modeling and mapping. I would like to see how well this could be used for say a flight simulator or third-person RPG like Zelda TP or Shadow of the Colossus.

[masterxilo]

@2DKnight I just save all terrain data (heights and texture info) then all units data to a binary file.

Thanks for the feedback!

[Dick4YouFaker]

i downloaded it and i am impressed.. but there is no save function or so...?!?

[TheSupreme67]

how would i add units like ants spiders n bugs??

[masterxilo]

@TheSupreme67 I could release the source code some time...

[MrSargeHawk]

hi any ideas about the army men rts studio editor can anyone help me with it or give me some feedback on it

[SebawarezLP]

looks epic

[ILFZ2]

I am impressed. Although there is the lack of originality, the programming job was done like a pro.

[masterxilo]

@ILFZ2 Thanks for your feedback! I'm glad you like it.

[MaTToSauruSS]

can you make the pen smaller?

[JKtonoso]

looks like Cnc world builder some bits

[uratoko]

if you made this in a group - good job

if you made this alone - you are a genious

[soopamariogalaxeee]

Can you make your own objects, like buildings and characters?

[superkellerman8D]
