Offical Homepage

SC Xtra Editor 2.5

(Version 2.6 was found to be more buggy and less useful than 2.5) Basically this was one of the first 3rd party editors that allowed for many great options with custom map making. It can do almost everything that SCm Draft can do with the exception of tile modding and other terrain abnormalities. It is mostly outdated and obsoleted by SCM Draft 2 now, but still has a few minor uses.


Protecting and Unprotecting

Unused Unprotector

Repairs maps which have been corrupted with the intention of preventing editing.
