Updated Worldbuilder for the SDK.

Worldbuilder for Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars is the toolset that the game's designers used to create all of the single-player missions and multiplayer maps, and we're making it available to our player community.

The Worldbuilder download also includes a detailed instruction manual (100-plus pages) that is intended both for beginning map designers as well as advanced and returning Worldbuilder users. Any new mappers testing out Worldbuilder for the first time should definitely read the 1st section of the manual which will provide you a quick set of beginner skills to build a multiplayer map!

Be sure to take your time and have patience when using Worldbuilder! In the coming weeks we will be taking map submissions for review by our development team and release right here on our official site! Be sure to really plan your battle-plans on the maps when you create them...We are looking for the best!

Q: Why was Worldbuilder not included with the shipped version
of Command & Conquer 3?

We made various changes to previous versions of Worldbuilder during development of Command & Conquer 3, which needed to be documented. Furthermore, references to previous projects and old functionality needed to be removed both from the software and the documentation. As a result, we wished to take extra time to best prepare Worldbuilder for its intended audience. Worldbuilder is a fairly small program that references all the artwork and other assets already built into Command & Conquer 3, so we believed that providing the toolset on a download-only basis would not overly inconvenience those looking forward to it.
