Stable and endorsed: ResEdit.. recommend you use the Annotated Bible Platypus mentioned.

Whizbang and I love it, must have for systems and spöbs: EVO Developer's Map

Okay, when will it be finished and why does it occassionally do weird schtuff?: EVO God

Finished, still very occasionally buggy, but great for setting picts and standard gear: ShipWrite

Avoid it or scream and sob and get migraines: EVEdit

No matter what editor you use, if you want to be accurate, check everything you do in ResEdit with the Annotated Edition of the EVBible in hand.

------------------
So I take it this means you don't have a ratchet...

In my infancy as a plug developer, I used EV-Edit. After spending days trying to figure out why my missions never appeared, I switched over to ResEdit for good.

Or you could just wait until Nova comes out and use the complete suite of editors from R&R; Software that come with
it...
(/shameless advertising)

So do the editors for Nova come built into the game, or are they seperate programs that come with the game?

I've said this over and over, but here goes again. When you're first starting to make plug-ins, learn how to program them through ResEdit. This will teach you everything you need to know so that you can fix it later when you use editors. Also, certain editors have limitations, while ResEdit has none.

The editors are separate programs. However, the actual nature of the release of Nova (download/cd; overall size; with editors/without; etc, etc) has not been decided on yet. It will be something that Andrew will get to once Nova is in beta...
