start with the basics like you used to.. first make a melee map... set terrian and units dress it up ... then worry about adding in custom units or making units train (custom ones) Id worry about triggers last.
Im making a melee and so far I have learned so much... I know my way around many tools, how to make custom units, how to make buildings make custom units, importing icons, setting some minor triggers.
I think the problem everyone has is they try and learn it all at once, you got to learn it from the ground up and start with a simple idea and add to it.
eh nevermind after playing around with the data editor i realized that if i just copied the values from the vanadium to the regular meaning Effects/weapons and adding the unit in as well to all 3 levels and the base upgrade (4 all together) it worked fine. (Lot of work just to get a unit in and allow it to upgrade :) thats one now a lot more LOL! )
Hey i wanted to make vultures build as part of my melee game, because they are awesome. Trouble is the upgrades for vehicles arnt effecting it. I went to the upgrade and added the vulture to the unit part of the upgrade but cant quite figure out how to add it to actor part.
If this is the wrong method please let me know, or just give me a complete rundown on how to add it to vehicle plating and weapons. thx
I did a search but couldnt find anything. (vultures are in vanadium armor but thats not in melee)
Hey I saw a lot of neat unused terran units and i wanted to form a rogue outfit race.. you know have Terran, zerg,protoss, "My race" on drop down menu.. Curious how to do so or if it is real complicated.
Custom Race would be better then modifying all the races... i may still add units in that i miss like the lurker and vulchure.

be nice if you mentioned where exactly you found the menu in the data editor... (Units/actors/abilities) + the field name (Some of us are noobs)
EDIT: Ah nm its under buttons tab
