We need a Standalone Map Editor / Scenario Editor

Hello Everyone,

I do think its already time to get more love to the Map editor and get a Scenario Editor for the game.

the MAP editor is already out, but omg its so broken!

I used to make maps in the Alpha version of the game and it was awesome! and so easy, never froze on me. never!

now that i am back into it and i want to start making maps and scenarios...it just freezes after I click build map in quality 1!

Sometimes it work (10%) and sometimes it just dies (90%)

So here is my Questions to Stardock:

Will the Community be be getting a good working Map Editor anytime soon?

What about a Scenario Editor for better Modding?

Right now that build 2.20 is out, please explain step by step on the best config to create maps without getting the Editor to freeze.

Do we use DX11.exe to run the map editor?

will it work on DX12?

Any Tip or recommendation?

in the http://wiki.ashesofthesingularity.com/index.php/Map_Editor its updated to 2.2 and I thank everyone who wrote that. its great but!.....

something is missing in there.

Its very important when creating a map to know what everything mean..

• Map size : that's easy but what Pc specs are recommended per map size?
• Cell size: no idea what it really means. 400m are better than 175m? it will be nice to have a good explanation and again what are the recommended pc specs for different cell size?
• Terrain Synth: The style of slopes and mountains generated by the erosion simulation. Anything other than 1 and 2 is experimental, can you give us a better example with small pics? i may be asking to much sorry.
• Terrain Type: that's easy so never mind.
• Light Environment: easy to understand no need for explanation.
• Sky Background: easy to understand no need for explanation.

on the http://wiki.ashesofthesingularity.com/index.php/Modders_Guide is good but can you please take a real Scenario that you made and explain it to us step by step explaining what triggers you used, why and how, adding some pictures to the explanation. is that possible to get from you guys, thats a lot of time but it will help us a lot to understand it better and faster.

thank you in Advance.
