Hi,

This is a mod editor for Sins Of A Solar Empire Trinity/Diplomacy (next version will be Rebellion only)

As of this Version a backup function is included to port Data from Version to Version.
Only one project at a time (duplicate the Editor directory to support more projects)
All the basic stuff is in there
Read the readme file included for a disclaimer
Uses Filemaker and 360Works' Scriptmaster Plugin
Filemaker is not required, Scriptmaster plugin is distributed with this solution

!!Requires Java to be installed on the PC!!

As of now, besides many others the following limitations apply:

gameplayconstant and other such files are not supported
Brushes are not supported

Syntax is of Diplomacy
BIG THANKS to ZombiesRus5 for the amazing ModdingSyntaxWiki

After some testing I found another few bugs and I also implemented Duplication Scripts fro Abilities and Buffs (Research Prerequisites for Abilities are not duplicated though)

I will wait with the release for more in-house testing.

Successfully updated karma reason!

Thanks. I was using it somewhat but had some unrelated issues with mod things so I couldn't really validate the tool. soon as I get a functioning mod restored I'll run it through.

Abilities and buffs have some show-stopping issues in the version you've got available that have to be worked around using a text editor. The development version mostly works now, but I need to add all abilities of SOTYR and test if they all work so that at least 60 % of the buff/ability syntax is tested.

After releasing the Rebellion version for SOTYR I will release the next (Rebellion compatible) version of the Mod Editor.

For now the changes are:

Rebellion compatibility/requirement
Titans added
syntax corrections
visual representation of prerequisites in the research trees
resizing of meshes to a global scale
hopefully Import of previous backups
automatic conversion to binary using the ConvertData exes
rudimentary mod documentation pdf export

Successfully updated karma reason!
