Warcraft III World Editor is the official level editor for the real-time strategy game Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos and its expansion Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne. Based on the level editor of Blizzard's previous strategy game StarCraft, it allows players to create and customize their own scenarios and campaigns with a high level of detail and flexibility.[1] [2] The editor has been used in creating several custom maps, including the popular Defense of the Ancients map.[3][4] The level editor has been substantially improved in the expansion to the game, The Frozen Throne and allow users to create cut scenes supporting voice-overs.[5] Advanced features of the editor allow for custom models, tilesets and icons. The editor also supports Blizzard's JASS scripting language for programming complex actions otherwise not supported by the graphical interface.
