At last…. custom maps are now live! Waste no time… head to the updates page, play for 12 hours straight, then you can come back here and finish reading:

Welcome back! I’m sure you finished all of the 20+ maps that were available at launch. Of course, there are probably more in the queue waiting to be approved by now, so a Liberation Ship Captain’s job is never really done. Now that you’ve played a bunch of maps you might like to make your own. You can get the map editor here:
http://knucklecracker.com/creeperworld2/mapeditor.php
Here’s a little screenshot for the impatient:
With this editor, you can do all sorts of things. Custom fields, graphics, tiles. Make tall or short maps, easy or hard. It’s all up to you. When you are finished you can upload your map to KnuckleCracker.com and it will be reviewed by a crack team of community based moderators. After approval, it can show up right on KnuckleCracker.com and right in the game. Your path to fame will have begun… all I ask is that you remember all of the little people when you are on the red carpet posing for the paparazzi.
I actually was sufficiantly surprised, and excited that I had an outburst of “****, its about time!”
😀 yaay im on my way to play
The mods:- you made a small type when you talked about them. You said “…it will be reviewed by a crack team of community based moderators.”
It should have been: “a community of moderators on crack!”
🙂
OMG YES
umm i did everything but when it installs the patch it says it cant because im installing something else. And im not. :/ Not sure what to do.
A system reboot may correct these issues. You can follow up on the forums or on the support at knucklecracker dot com email address.
Thanks!
Is anyone else having some problems installing both of these on win7?
What sort of problems are you having? Have you updated the game successfully but are having trouble installing the map editor? In most cases, a system reboot and ensuring you have plenty of free space on you hard drive corrects installation problems.
win7, everything is ok
thanks for the custom maps, it will be really cool timewasting for me! =)
yay!!!!!!!! woohoo!!!!!!!!!! yaaaaaa!!!!!!!!
Thx, reboot worked. And btw, can you add like a speed up button to speed things up a little… the gameplay seems too slow. And GJ…
Woo, thanks for the b-day present Virgil! Hehe. Been waiting for this update since CW2 came out–checked the site nearly everyday waiting. Keep up the awesome work on CW2, and I can’t wait to see what other projects/games you can come up with.
Thanks again for making two of my all-time favorite games!
Virgil, I think you should check this out, you might be able to demonstrate Creeper World 2 to a much larger audience, at Mine-con. Please follow this link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_US&formkey=dDRhRVE2SWdIQk5XUDdfTTVuMXZ3OVE6MQ&ndplr=1#gid=0

Umm whern’t you going to includ custom units. If there is I can’t find it XD
Why not make a field code system that we can code our own action?
However, everything is totally great! Thanks Knuckle Cracker!
problem!!!!!my map shows up on the public map page…but it doesnt show up on “my maps”
please help
Only maps that you have downloaded from the in-game browser or have manually moved to the CW2 “customgames” folder will show up in My Maps
Here’s a new wrinkle for you!
While playing two different custom maps on two different days, I’ve elected to ‘restart’ the mission, only to have the game reset to my last ‘quick-save’ position, rather than the absolute beginning.
Sorry, no screen-shots or other supporting evidence…
Been playing with custom maps, and the editor, for a while now, and it is magnificent! Thank you, Virgilw!
One question though: When I d/l a map, where does it save to?
P.S. I’m also confirming that everything works beautifully on Win7.
how do you start a nexes,if i try, than it stays at 0%
Did you make sure it is submerged in creeper?
