With your player selected click the Create Spawn Point button underneath the player list and then CTRL+Left Click on the map where you want your player to start. Select your player from the Estates list, you are Player 1 (red). You will need to both paint the opposing faction areas and place their starting points.įirst create your spawn point. Once you have the Factions tool selected the entire map should turn red, this is indicating that the entire map currently belongs to Player 1 (you). With a map loaded, select the Factions tab from the sidebar.
In order to play a custom map it must have at least 2 factions available to play from. ***Note that the official game maps are locked and thus cannot be modified. I use Windows 7, for example my maps location is:Ĭ:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Stronghold Crusader 2\assets\maps\ All maps available to play from, including your custom maps, are stored in the maps directory. Simply go to File > New or File > Open.įrom what I can tell the only way to play a custom map is by playing a Custom Skirmish match in game and having at least 2 factions points designated on the map. The first thing you need to do after starting the editor is to create a new map or load an existing one. In the Steam app go to Library > Tools > Stronghold Crusader 2 Map Editor These buttons can do different things depending on your current tool, just make sure you have the CTRL held down. Left click is camera pan, right click is camera rotate, middle mouse scroll is camera zoom. ***As a general rule of thumb, in order to place or select various objects within the editor you must have the CTRL key held down.
So without further ado, let's get started: I thought I would put together a simple tutorial for the map editor to both help me better understand it and also help clear up some things I see asked a lot here on the forums.
