[edit] Stuff you need

• A Supreme Commander map editor. There exist two versions:

• The official Supreme Commander map editor, available from The Vault inside your GPGnet client
• HazardX's scenario editor, available on the SupCom forums

• Some sort of texteditor, to edit the script files. Notepad is ok, but you'll be better off with Notepad++ as it features syntax highlighting.
• A lot of time >.<

[edit] Stuff that comes in handy

• an image manipulation program, to edit/mirror your heightmaps and texture layers. e.g. Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro (Paint .net has layer support too and is free)
