I've looked through 10 pages of "Mission Editor" search info and tried various other word arrangements, but cannot find an answer. I'm running SH3/GWX in 1024x768, yet when I load the Mission Editor, it apparently is in a lower rez because the bottom of the ship placement info window is below my task bar and I cannot click the Accept button. Until I can get a handle on this I can't get into the most basic mission building. Any suggestions on how one changes the ME rez?

Thanks, BBW. I d/l to my desktop and extracted the files to a folder. Do I need to place it in one of my SH3 (i.e. GWX) folders and let it overwrite the existing ME?

Didnt overwrite the old ME

Another workaround (but still anoying) is right-clicking on your taskbar, choose properties, and choose the 2nd checkmark on the list (auto-hide taskbar or something) Now the taskbar wil be removed if you do not point to it. You still have to move the window up a bit to press the button.

Just tried BBW solution and it's alot better.

Ah but that mission ed lets you place units 10m apart
Not 300m min like the original

Tell the missus to keep it polished so it's always nice and clean http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/5158/winkbigid2.gif

To rephrase the question......I am able to place boats right alongside each other when building a mission (as I am aware you already know).
Is there an older mission builder that would only allow a closest distance of 300m ? http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/621/thinkbigsw1.gif

I can see how it would be. I always physically drag the taskbar down so it disappears, then drag the mission box up so I can reach the button. I'm going to look at this new one now.
