This took over 30 hours to make; i made this in about a week. I couldn't go to work so i had alot of free time. I originally made this map for someone on stareidt.net but i decided to make it for public use. I had to enlarge some islands to make left side of the map more playable. Europe came out a little small with the polar oppisite being russia/asia This map is just the terrain. The reason it took 30 hours is becuase i carved out the contients by hand and redid them many times.

You can alter and distrube the map as you like as long as you keep this and give credit to the creator of the map (Tempz)

Wow 30 hours... Why weren't the old risk maps good enough? This one doesn't seem particularly better at first glance.

You made a world map in StarCraft. Yay? Is it supposed to be playable or something?

This is the Preview, a pic that works
Nice job, but as said by Chef, it isn't actually much better. Seems to be just a new map of the globe that is more accurate than the current risk maps on B.net to the true globe.

I like! Where are the minerals and spawn points? Is the water actually impassable?

I think an 8 player FFA world map with 32 bases would be sweet.

Not balanced but, real life's not balanced either.

can't you just steal the terrain from WWII/Diplo UMS maps?

the map doesnt look too bad, but too many blocky features make it unnatural.

If you add in the Risk UMS games' psi emitter that sends you from alaska to Russia then that could actually be pretty fun and balanced! I have that somewhere in my map files lol.

The original map still needs a lot of work... to be playable.

The other map would look better without Antarctica, but I guess removing it now would just be a lot of empty space.
Their needs to be broken terrain in Asia like cliffs or something for Tibet/Himalayas and maybe the Urals, as it is it's waay too open.

There was another World map made a long time ago. It's not as detailed/accurate as the one you made, but much better for gameplay since it makes the most use of terrain and expansions. And besides, when you play all you see is the minimap, how well the map looks zoomed out doesn't matter.

Any tips on how to balance the world map?
