It is not editor it is single mission launcher

"It seems nice what you made, but can you tell me what the difference is between your program and the standard mission editor?:hmm:


Hello
My "mission launchers" main difference to generic "career mode" is, it is like "tv series", and not like "long film".You make series of short missions with SH4 Editor. Give all of them same name "sms.mis"
Put "sms.mis" in "sms" folder, and put "sms" folder in "code" folder . Every
code folder has different name, but for first one i recommend, name it as "start".
Depending what player did in "start" mission, he will receive a radio message
with "code name " to start the next mission in series. Not like mission no 1, 2, 3 but like 1, 3, 8. You "jump to different mission depending what you did .

"Is it easier and more user-friendly to make missions?":hmm:
Short missions as series make one long mission or "career".
You make one short mission at time, easy to do and debug.

Folders must be like this:"TestMission"= name of series. in testmission folder:
StartPic.jpg . "sanFran", "start" = short mission folders with "code" names.
In "sanFran" folder:
SingleMissions folder = SH4 folder in Data folder. in SingleMissions folder:
"sms" folder = Quick mission name folder. in "sms" folder
"sms.mis" = Name of short mission that you made with SH4 mission editor.
"sms" = single mission series.
