The most commonly used standard object sources are Liberty.SC2Mod and LibertyMulti.SC2Mod. Therefore, you can always go back to see how the unedited units look. At the same time, the editor will keep the old one. This would cause the editor to create a new copy for us to edit. Let's say we edit a marine and change the movement speed. I personally just use a big list and search for what I need, but it's nice to be able to have it sorted in a tree.ĭisplay All Object Sources - The next button says "Display All Object Sources".
Object Tree List - The next one shows the object lists as a tree instead of a big list. If you press the "View raw data" button, the editor will show you the data how the editor sees it. Basically, the data you see in the data editor looks prettier than it is. View Raw Data - First we have the "View raw data" button. I will break it down and explain each part separately.įirst we have some standard buttons that are in most of the other modules as well (like the trigger and terrain module): There are several parts here that are interesting. Let's start out the tutorial with a picture of the data editor:
I will try to follow this up with more detailed tutorials where we actually do something. This tutorial will just be a glimpse of the data editor as I try to explain how the fundamentals work. Today, I consider myself to be decent at the data editor as well but there's so much to learn. I was perfectly decent at the warcraft 3 object editor(warcraft's version of the data editor) but now I opened this data editor and I suddenly had no clue how to make a unit from scratch. Chances are that if you've had any ambitions about making a Starcraft 2 map, the data editor has been there to intimidate you. It doesn't matter if you were creating stuff back in the Warcraft 3 days or if you're new to the scene.
The single biggest problem that people have with the Starcraft 2 editor that causes the most people to just stop and give up, is the Data editor.
