I believe there was a Dirtside II editor for the Macintosh floating around
somewhere... I'm just wondering if anyone has it. Please email me privately
about this. Thanks.

I haven't seen a DSII editor, perhaps you're thinking of Ed Allen's FT
Hypercard stack?

Actually I wrote one last year in concert with an effort KR was considering.
The Mac version is finished and went through a month of offsite testing.
 I
can provide it free of charge however all the respective parties retain
their rights - Jon for the game system, myself for the code.

If you're interested in a copy I can place it in a Stuffit file and send it to
you (tell me if you want the PPC version or 68K version). You'll need about

Currently it stores each vehicle as a separate text file and prints the
vehicle out in a format similar to that in the back of the DSII book. It
only provides the basic vehicle costs - it doesn't cost out infantry in
an APC, rounds for artillery.

It needs a half meg of HD space in it's unpacked form. Currently I'm revising
it (only in the beginning stages due to flooded basement, new job, loss of
beloved pet, etc.) to store multiple vehicles in a library, provide TO&E
costing, coding it up for the Win32 platform, and eventually to JAVA to
provide further export possibilities.
