Once you get a video done, send a message to David. I'm sure he'd happy to put your video on the Wolfire blog. That way we might get a bit more attention to the final results too, and more voters in the winning poll. :D

This'll be my first time making an OG map, but hopefully not the last!

Not a problem!

I recommend this video for learning the basic tools:

Once you know how to use those the shortcuts, you'll be ready to go!

Also, this thread should help for beginners, and even moderately experienced users like me: viewtopic.php?f=16&t=14869

I might try my hand at this, but I probably won't spend too much time, so don't expect much.

Also, there is now two new editor features that Wolfire added. The option to use the scroll wheel to select objects that are under other objects, and (my new fav) the ability to select all of one type of object with "CTRL+SHIFT+A"

I gotta switch back to 199 before the Jam... 196 is the least buggiest 19x alpha for me xD but the map scripts have changed a lot since 196. One issue with 199 is the constant crashes during combat :c

If I can make a request from my end. - Any custom items that are used, should either be provided as a new pack, or people should use custom objects from SUMLauncher. I'm going to do my best over the weekend to put all the maps that are created into SUMLauncher as we go, and this will be hugely useful for me. Noting which objects are used, will also help me a lot.

Unfortunately, there are two restrictions this would leave for people, which they may want to use. Markuss' American City, and Old China assets. He is working to update them to be compatible with SUMLauncher, but has chosen to update them himself, so I cannot rush the process. (Unless he gives me the go-ahead now.)

I'll try to get everything else up to date before Friday's start time though, so we can have as many options easily available as possible.
