and it utterly sucks for anything other than making new maps. No modability. You can't even edit the weapon tags or HUD tags. Nor can you do effects, or even edit the damage effects. Tool is also lacking half the power it had. No new animations, or sounds can be compiled. http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/9649/captureev3.jpg

Sapien is alot better than the h1ek, but its useless for modding as well.


So all in all, all the new H2EK is good for is learning how h2 works, and I think for h2V mods, we're all going to be waiting for Prom. :(

Did anyone ever mention anything about modding or editing properties in the map editor?

Maybe you should wait for the game to come and get the real thing instead of asking for it from some random guy. Just a suggestion.

He does have the real thing. Most of the modding community already does.

Well, if the Map Editor only edits maps, then maybe Hired Gun will release some modding tools. Or, more likely than not, someone on the internet will find a way to mod the game (Not "hack," you little consolers who may be listening) without the need for modding tools. Just wait for a while after release, I'm sure there'll be some mods floating around.

Yes, it's simple, but this was done with no tools other than a hex editor, and h2tool. Seeing as H2 Guerilla doesn't let you open weapon or item collection tags, it all had to be done via hex editor.
