Please post a link to any thread that is similar and lock this if it exists, but otherwise, can anyone give me a list of all the more advanced (not necessarily popular) map editors, with details of their benefits over the original map editor :) Specifically, I'm looking for an editor I heard could remove unused scenery from a map's scenery list...

Why would you want another editor?

Because they have many more features than the original, e.g. polygon selection by #, multiple abilities per polygon (e.g. a polygon that hurts and also only blocks soldaten), etc., etc., etc.

Problem is, each map editor has different features, so I want to know which have which so I know which to get. And MapMakerPlus doesn't work for me...

First install the original map maker, then install mapmaker plus in that same directory. ;)
That is, that's the problem with most chaps.

Yeah, I did; they both went to C:\Soldat, which is where my game directory's at...

well... you are right with that Keron... I agree :)

Can anyone tell me why my Map Maker Pro isn't working? I did install it into my Soldat directory, no different than the official one. Yet it says it can't load the banana.BMP texture and whenever I load maps it loads 'em scenery-less...

Did you put it in the MapMaker folder?

It is true... if you don't put it in the MapMaker folder, it will not work...

Awesome! I put it there, and now it works perfectly! B-) Thanks a bunch, all.

EDIT There was some talk about a map editor that could select polygons by #? Can it take you to them if you can't find them? Could someone post a link to that?

EDIT #2 I really need that, please... c'mon, at least one person must know!!

there no such program!
i know Meitzi's Map Editor Professional (aka Edit Pro), MapMakerPlus, VisMapper and PolyWorks but none of Map Maker Pro :P

Sorry, I was wrong; that should be MapMaker Plus :-) And I don't need any polygon # selection anymore; I was somehow able to select the polygon (more easily unzoomed than zoomed o.O') and delete it.

good job! ;p ^o^
