No, i dont already have it - I dont have the game. Would like to get a look at the editing process before I buy. Saw that the game manual is posted, and thought someone might post the editor manual also.

Is it possible to get a .pdf of the editor manual/tutorial posted here? I'd really like to see what is involved.

Thanks for the quick response. Changed the game settings from 1680X1050 32 bpp to 1084X786 16 bpp, and appears to be working fine now.

OK - bought the game -v.102. Attempting the tutorial, but all the terrain(grass?) is black. Installed the latest Nvidia drivers, but no change in the terrain color. Running Vista 32-bit, Nvidia GeForce 8500GT. Help!

Thank you for the clarification. I'm interested in what I believe is sometimes called 'sandbox mode' ... that is, making my own tactical map with a built-in map editor, placing some units and doing battle.

The product description of Great Battles Medieval states "The game supports modded campaigns. You can create new maps covering any area you like, even fantasy maps." Just to be certain ... does this mean that campaign and tactical battle maps can be created from scratch?

And I'll bet some others gave up on it too, Rich12545. If Slitherine comes thru with a good add-on editor helper, this game is going to become permanent on my hard drive. By the way Rich - I remember that you were one of the people joining in the quest for an improved editor back in August, along wi...

This is great news! The addition of a plugin system of editor helpers which provide a (hopefully substantial) GUI for some of the scripting is something that will greatly improve the lifespan, popularity and marketability of this fun game. Even if the first release of editor helpers is not substanti...

You guys are playing games with us. Look at the editors of the games Rich12545 and I have noted ... that's what we're talking about - thats what we're suggesting, and you darn well know it. And pipfromslitherine - if its so easy to post your new file shuffling "fix" here - why not just sti...

pipfromslitherine - check out the posts by Rich12545 and Jugger above.

adherbal - it appears that the customers are asking for something.

Question ... shall we get to work on it or try to argue them out of it? The world is watching!

OK guys ... YOU WIN! I admit it! ... it was nothing more than a communistic subversive plot for me to suggest that a non-script editing scenario editor would have made it easier for some BA users to create their own scenarios . I give up! Kamerad!!! It's your company! Do it your way. Thanks for the ...

adherbal - not complaining at all. Simply made a suggestion to Slitherine regarding what I thought might enhance this games popularity among wargamers - and there seems to be some support for my suggestion here on the forum. I used some very popular wargames as examples of full featured(for want of ...

The only thought I have regarding that is that it sounds a lot like - "Sorry, but Slitherine is not going to make that happen." Too bad - BA had such great potential ... but there are some other games in the works by other publishers that do provide FULL editors with NO scripting. I'm poin...

Jugger is right on. What I am suggesting is the possibility of creating good scenarios WITH NO SCRIPTING being required by the scenario creator. The editor handles all the scripting chores.

The map is great ... the scenario is fun. Three cheers for Ostwind!

pip thanks for the rapid response. Not sure I can elaborate but I'll try ... in Steel Panthers for instance, when creating a scenario you can click on a button then the map location to set a victory location ... click on a counter type button to set the victory points. What Im trying to suggest is a...

While I greatly enjoy this game, and have had some success in creating my own scenarios with some limited scripting - I think that BA would rise to the next level of popularity with a scenario creation engine that handles scripting for the scenario creator. I see some frustration with scripting here...

Alas, if it only had a scenario/campaign editor, I would have already bought this one!

Yep. looks like the tutorial WAS posted 31 minutes before my last post. However, since the discussion was going on here, I assumed that any announcement of a tutorial would be done here - and I unfortunately did not check the Scenario Design portion of the forum before my last posting. My bad. What ...

While pip is putting "some details together when he gets back to the office", and pip is waiting to "write good documentation", and pip is collecting "more information about what people are finding tricky", and pip is "developing a plan", can anybody post thei...
