Once created, mods can be published to the Steam Workshop to enable an easy and familiar path to downloading and playing community content. We aim to make the creation, sharing, and playing of mods as seamless as possible for both creators and players. That means when the game launches, it will come with the latest that our brand-new Essence Engine 5 has to offer, and new capabilities to build more incredible Company of Heroes experiences than ever before. The Definitive Editions improved both editors, not the AoE2 one isn’t as bad as it used to be and the AoE3 one got some nice small additions too like that the computer players now have an AI on default.We’re making Company of Heroes history! The Company of Heroes 3 Essence Editor and modding will be supported day 1. That’s why I think the AoE3 editor is much better than the AoE2 one. In AoE3 (especially before DE) you had to do a bit more to get a working map but doing more complex things is much more comfortable. Yes it’s very easy to make a scenario but using triggers and stuff is just pain. A lot of SC2 maps were also less complex, not because it wasn’t possible but because it took so long to make them. Changing things took too much time.ĭespite having more possibilities SC2 never got as many good fan maps as WC3. In SC2 attacks were their own properties that then had effects as properties that actually did the damage (maybe I forget some extra steps) this allowed much more flexibility but was much harder to use. In WC3 units could just have 2 attacks and they were in the list of the units stats. Stracraft 2 added so many new possibility but made things like just changing the attack damage of a unit a pain. I think a good example is Starcraft 2 compared to Warcraft 3. But too complex editors can become to hard to use for advanced users again. Simplified editors are often a pain to use of more advanced users. I think it’s important to find a balance between an editor that is easy to understand and an editor that is powerful and easy to use. I haven’t tried out the Company of Heroes editor so I can’t talk about that.
