Anyone know how I can get one? All the links I've found are broken.

Thanks

Hmm still can't get it to work. Could it be because my supcom is through steam?

Has anyone got an editor working with steam?

You need to have the vanilla sup com to use the map editor- apart from that its still quite buggy and hard to use.

I've got vanilla, but that's in steam too. I'm putting the editor exe in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\supreme commander\bin and it's giving me some generic windows error 0xc000005 or something

I never tried it, but i think the map editor isn't working with the steam version of Supreme Commander.

im not sure about the steam version however you should try this:

1. run as admin ( you should do that anyway)
2. run in compability mod xp
3. EDIT: ups brainlag
4. try on another PC (you can do this by just copying it, as long you do not want to run SupCom but only the mapeditor)

As the Map Editor uses doesn't use files from FA, but from SupCom Vanilla, there for sure is no patch to 3599 ;)

I think (!) the Steam version of Vanilla is equal to the retail version. For that, it should work. However, I don't know if steam limits the access to the Files in the ...\Steam\Steamapps\... folder. So far, maybe try to copy all the Vanilla Folder to somewhere else and remove all file protections. As well as try to launch the Editor as Administrator, of course.
