Open the properties and add /edit mapname.bzn to the end of the Target line.Įxample: "C:\Program Files\Activision\Star Trek Armada II\Armada 2.exe" /edit mapname.bzn How do i make a shortcut to the Map Editor? - Right click on the Armada2.exe


This can prove handy if you are testing new ships. How do i start the Map Editor in game? - Follow the first step in this FAQ and just press CTRL + A whilst playing the game. Or you can use the next tip, which is so much easier. Then when you start the map ingame, you can beam aboard the ships and take control of them. Put the ships in the Map, double click on them And change the team number and the Percieved Team to 4 and make sure that the ship has no crew. How do i get Ships in the Map Editor? - Ok, this is how i do it, Say im creating a map with 3 teams, i press CTRL + R, create 3 teams, leave the rest empty, so now you should have 4,5,6,7 and 8 Empty. Whats the biggest size map i can have? - You can make a map any size you wish, but i recommend you dont go over the 100,000 x 100,000 size. Then load the map back into the map editor and it will be the desired size. How do i resize maps? - Press CTRL + R and type in the desired size of the map you want, What do i need? - Find the CD drive where your Armada 2 CD is and right click and open it, then open the folders, Setup/Editor and copy and paste the files named ATVI and unsupportedextension_mapedit to the Star Trek Armada 2 root folder, usually:Ĭ:\Program Files\Activision\Star Trek Armada II If you think i have missed anything important, PM me and i will get on and add it. Right, after observing alot of the questions asked about maps in Armada 2, i decided to use my time to make an FAQ thread so it saves you posting any of the frequently asked questions.
