If you mean the built in editor, you have to run the game from the bz2edit.exe file to use it, not bzone.exe. The editor was deintegrated from the main exe back in the early days of 1.3 so as to prevent cheaters from using Multiplayer Editing tricks to give themselves an unfair advantage.

k lol thanks ya I nvr tried to use editor in 1.3 cuz atm it wouldnt work for me. So I uninstalled it

GSH split the editor from the standard bzone.exe to eliminate a multiplayer cheat of adding units while in combat through the editor. (I believe that's the reason).

I didn't know once and couldn't get the editor to work till someone told me I had to launch the other .exe file for it.

1.2 also had the problem of altered terrain and damaging water.... on Dunes in MP because of this "hack"
