I wonder the same, he just wanished right after the first beta release of the AI editor :/.

Maybe Blizzard found him and hired him to code the AI Editor for WE in TFT :D. well that chance is really small, but he's gone for sure.

Heheh, I'm still around, although I very rarely visit here anymore. Right after I made the first version of AI Builder my computer crashed and it took me a couple weeks to get my junk back together. After that I got caught up in some work stuff that pretty much kept me out of gaming for the past few months.

By the time I could get back into it, it was becoming apparent that Blizzard was preparing to put an AI editor into the world editor, so I figured that AI Builder was kinda moot. The funny thing is, the AI editor in TFT ended up having exactly the features that I had originally envisioned for AI Builder.. hehe :)

Anyway, I do have the latest and greatest version of AI Builder if someone wants it for some crazy reason. I haven't played around with TFT but I'm guessing the AI editor can probably do everything mine could and then some... :)

Wow, so you really still are alive huh !?! :D

Good to see you after all these months, don't think you editor is needed if it don't have any more features than the first beta you sent out, but a AMAI compatibel AI-Editor would be really nice :)

I just realised that the TFT AI Editor is somewhat limited.

I was thinking that one could gain some flexibility by heavy usage of conditions. The only problem is that when the editor produce the final .ai file it breaks all lines at about column 263, which is somewhere in the middle of one of mine conditions. :(

I suppose that the TFT AI Editor is good for making basic stuff and for learning the basics of creating AI for WC.

You aren't thinking of making an even better editor JonahDean?

Actually, I had considered making something more advanced, but I'll have to work it around my somewhat busy schedule lately. :)

Could I get a copy of your AI Builder JonahDean?

It would be interesting to see on what lines you where thinking when creating it. :gsmile:

Certainly. here is the first beta... I would imagine that it's pretty primitive compared to the TFT AI editor, but at the time it was alright.
