Hey everyone ! I didn't had the time to fix all the bugs, so I'll release the major update tomorrow.

This update will bring a GUI for the scene editor and will bring a better experience than the in-game editor ! It will allow you to apply heightmaps more easily, without having to convert it to a raw texture.

I'll let you explore the rest tomorrow ;)

[09/09/2020] Hey everyone ! It's been almost 1 month of no updates, sorry for the wait ! I did alot of things for my career and I almost finished the next update, which is...


It will include a Todo Task Manager ! You will be able to focus on your most important tasks and being able to assign any assets to any lists ! You will have no excuses to forgot something ;)

This update will be available in 2 days, the 11th September.


I upgraded my infrastructures and you can now contact me by e-mail via the link: the official website[louis8257.com].

There is more news incoming, stay tuned !

[11/09/2020] As promised, here's the new update !



- Added the Todo Manager ! Create a Task Context by right clicking to create lists of tasks.
- Added a link to my official website.

- Added Testers in the credits.
- Shows the curent version in the credits.
- It will shows the curent version when doing a manual update and it was not necessary.


- When downloading an update, an error message will appear. It will stop poping after the download is complete.
- When installing BetterEditor for the first time it may not find the Settings file. If so, create a new Settings file by right clicking, while in BetterEditor folder, and click on "Create/BetterEditor/For Backups Only !/Settings". This will be fixed firstly in the next hotfix.


I planned to interrupt the development of BetterEditor for my professional projects after I fix the new critical bug. But I still maintain the support of this extension, if you have encountered uncomfortable bugs you can still report it in the "Bug Reports" thread.


"After 3 years of modding, I made BetterEditor because I needed it. Making planes were painful to make. It was buggy quite often (like the good old missiles that doesn't lock up <( °w°<) ), missing materials (not very often, but very inconvenient for mac users) and because of that I have to remake 26 mods from scratch to be sure to eliminate the bugs once and for all. During its development, I also considered BetterEditor also a part of myself, because it does exactly what I did in the past. It builds planes, it sets up planes and it export planes like as I did before. And now, BetterEditor makes Ravenfield modding very complete and user friendly. You have proved that BetterEditor is fully able to do everything it promises now, and thank you very much for that \(^w^)/ !

I'm very sure, for the future, BetterEditor will be essential for Ravenfield modding. It creates assets with ease and can rebuild prefabs from scratch. If SteelRaven7 would like to implement it in RavenfieldToolsPack, I would 100% agree. If I had to quit modding, I always be there as long as BetterEditor is in the Workshop."

I have more ideas for BetterEditor, that could be potentially subject of a major update. It would take times like 1 months but with all the projects I have, it will be completed even for the next year.


That was the 10th update ! Thanks everyone for supporting this mod ! BetterEditor has never been this big before !

[12/09/2020] HOTFIX coming in hot !

CAUTION: Use the Unity Import Package feature for this one ! You can use the update merger after this update.



- Fixed the installation failure for new users. The package now includes the Settings file I'm very sorry for that inconvenience !


- The "Paste" button will now create a new instance of the Todo Task or Todo List.
- The Task List completion percentage will now not count Complementary tasks.
- Fixed the note foldout.
- The colors in the Todo Manager are now less agressive, to improve readability.
- Minor display fixes for the Todo Manager



- When downloading an update, an error message will appear. It will stop poping after the download is complete.

Today, SteelRaven decided to port the entire game to Unity 2020, that means I'm also migrating to this version of Unity for all of my mods (future and every mods present on my Workshop).

BetterEditor will also be ported to Unity 2020 but the support for Unity 5 may come to an halt. I'm checking if I can compile BetterEditor from Unity 2020 and export it to Unity 5, there will be a news for that.

Finally I'm working on a solution to compile and export mods to the old version of the engine. I'm still working on the mods but Ravenfield is changing so much I can't mod it right now.

Also I'm working on commercial Unity tools ! Some of them will feature in the future update of BetterEditor ;) You can also check my official website (louis8257.com) to check my products !

I hope you understand the current situation ! Sorry for any inconveniences !
