MapEditor, maps please!


MapEditor, maps please!

The Strategic Assault mapeditor is out, get it from

To load add-on maps you will need to update to the latest version of the program which can be downloaded from (and only from there at the moment)

To install add-on maps into the game put them in:
\Program Files\Strategic Assault\Forest Fire\Extra\

You will need the full version of the game and Forest Fire.

I hope people will contribute maps to the game, and when we have some there will be a page for them on the Xen Games website for everyone to benefit from, and the author will be credited.

Thanks!

I've deleted my last posts as they went off the topic slightly ;)

The problem you are having is a bug in Windows 98 that I was not aware of.

The mapeditor should therefore work fine on ME/2K/XP and not work properly on Windows 98.

Now I know exactly what the problem is (a memory leak in the built-in TransparentBlt windows function) it will definitely be possible to work around it. I will try to release an update soon.

So basically if you don't have Forest Fire you can't play the maps?
Thought that it was cool with the edit and want to try it, but there's no need for it now since I can't play the maps anyway.
