Where''s a good place to start for making a map editor ... I''d like to avoid using VB, if that''s possible. Just some tips, suggestions, anything you guys have learnt would be of help. Tutorials would be awesome. - Ben

sorry, i don''t have any links for you, but why not use VB? assuming you will need all sorts of buttons, menus, and controls for this editor, VB will let you build your interface in a few minutes. yes, it will be slower, but you will be done much sooner, and it is only the editor, not the game engine.

just my 2 cents...

Just make your engine, and add capabilities in-engine to edit things.

I''m actually working backwards, sort of. I''m making the editor, but the game will be an extension of the editor. When everything is finished I''ll disable the editor and make it enabled through a command line switch.

Care.
