[Pat]

Mr Stephen that is such a wonderful view.... I do to know whats on my Christmas wish list..........

[jeronij]

 ...  ...  ... ...  .... fantástico  ¡¡¡¡

[Heblem]

thats truly amazing.... a new lot editor is that?!? please make it a much better and flexible than maxis one! many many thanks!

[xxdita]

I am really looking forward to this wonderful program. A quick question for those that have tested it so far... How steep is the learning curve on this?
I think at first I'd like to start with just making some downloaded buildings CAMpatible, but if it's not too daunting, perhaps start making my own lots.
Excellent work on this Wou.

[RippleJet]

I am pretty sure you would find it rather straight-forward, xxdita, especially if you have ever used Maxis PIM before.

Besides, a certain mademoiselle is making an excellent tutorial for the beginners!

[JoeST]

I wonder who that is...   

Now

WOW thats looking OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO so awesome.... can you calculate pi with it?? lol

This looks like such a powerfull tool that I actualy turn scared thinking about using it when it's ready.   
Great job Wou. 

Now with Serkanner uploading those prop cataloge's does that mean it might get released in the near future or
am I making wrong asumptions that one has to do with the other?
[it wasn't a question, just thinking/asuming out loud] 

[TheTeaCat]

Oh this is amazing 

[dragonshardz]

I can only hope that this works on Vista. It would be a shame to get all  about this and have it not work.

They have nothing to do with each other!

Wouanagaine is developing this tool on a machine running Vista...
And he is trying to convince the rest of us to switch into using Vista as well...

Run that by me again on my deathbed, maybe then I'll be desperate enough to try it.

I've actually been toying with ditching XP . . . for good old Windows ME.   As much as people complained about it, I actually had very few problems with it when I was running it--far fewer than Windows XP SP2.

At any rate, wouanagaine, this is truly, truly fantasic work, as always.  Your tools have really improved the entire community's SC4 experience.     But I'm not switching to Vista.

Don't do it Alex! Go back to Windows 2000 instead! I still miss 2000, I went to XP for better wireless support in 2004 and wish I still had my 2000 disc now that its up to SP4. Heck, if you're REALLY adventurous give the new Ubuntu Linux distro Gutsy Gibbon a try. It has smoothly installed and recognized all the hardware on 5 different computers in the house, ranging from a Intel Quad Core system to a tired Gateway Pentium III laptop.

Apparently SC4 runs well using W.I.N.E., the problem is the other fun programs that are used to create custom content. I haven't had the time to configure W.I.N.E. for SC4 yet, but its on my to-do list after comprehensive exams on the 30th.

Cheers,
Kevin

So, there is hope for me as well .....

Haven't heard much about the status of this new tool lately, although I have seen that it is getting used (by testers I'm guessing). What's happening with it? When can we expect to see it?

[jmyers2043]

Hello Lonedog

There is no schedule that I know of. And there hasn't been much new for us either. Wouanagaine is the lead programmer. He is having RL at the moment. Traveling I think. I am using beta 54. There is a beta 55 but it's not been uploaded for us to use yet.

As far as a plug in manager? There are two bugs that I know of that will be fixed in version 55. As far as a lot editor? I've only seen pictures just like you. 

[wouanagaine]

What a better day than my birthday to revive some old thread ?









Don't ask when it will be public, as with NAM and others, it will be when it will be

[Diggis]

Wow... looks exciting.  Wish I could use it.   

[BarbyW]

I wish I could too
