Okay, start off by download WinMPQ, and a hex editor, such as HexWorkshop. Search for them on google, as I don't have the link off the top of my head, and if you want to learn, you should put in some effort. here's a link for winMPQ http://shadowflare.ancillaediting.net/cgi-....cgi?WinMPQ.zip and here for a hex editor ftp://ftp.softcircuits.com/apps/cygnus.zip and the crack for the hex editor is here http://www.cracks.am/s.x Your next step is to open the map you want to unprotect with WinMPQ and drag the scenerio.chk file on to your desktop, and rename it p.chk. Next make a map with the same dimensions (i.e. 64x64) and the same tileset (i.e. Ashworld). Save the map and drag that chk file (using WinMPQ) on to your desktop, and rename it np.chk. Next open both files into your hex editor. In the np.chk file, search for IOWN. It will be right near the top. Copy the entire section from IOWN to right before OWNR. Your clipboard should contain (in ASCII translation) IOWN ...... but not OWNR. Next go to your p.chk and search for OWNR (near the top). Check the section (four letter word or abbreviation) right before OWNR. If you see GUPS, you're dealing with GU-Edit. If you don't, you're dealing with SCM Toolkit. Delete the GUPS section if it's there. This is from GUPS to right before OWNR but not including OWNR. If you did not have to delete GUPS, or if you did, the next step is to put your cursor in front of OWNR and press control v for paste. Next go into the np.chk file and search for ISOM (near the middle). Now copy from ISOM to right before DD2, so that your clipboard contains (a very long) string looking like ISOM ..................... etc but not DD2. Note that this may include the TILE section. Next go into the p.chk file, and search for DD2. Put your cursor right before DD2 and control v. 1 or 2 steps left depending on whether or not you had to delete the GUPS section. If you deleted the GUPS section, then do the next two steps. If you didn't, skip the next two steps. 1. Search for UPUS in the np.chk, and copy from UPUS to right before MRGN. Your clipboard should say something like UPUS@ ......... but not MRGN. Go into p.chk and search for MRGN, and right before MRGN control v. 2. In the np.chk copy the WAV and SWNM sections (next to each other) right before COLR. Your clipboard should say WAV ........ SWNM ........ but not COLR. Go into p.chk right before COLR, and control v. Now, only if you didn't delete the GUPS section, go to the end of the p.chk and look for PROT. Delete from PROT (including PROT) to the very end of the file. Save p.chk. Open SCXE 2.5 or whatever editor you use and click open. Click the desktop icon, then in the file name type * This will let you open a file of any extension. Click p.chk, and with luck, it should open! -Archn" -Mynock | ||

Go download whatever program people are 'locking' their maps with, I think I heard "GueEdit" or something, get a map, save the original, lock one. Get Hexworkshop, there's a "compare" file option, compare the locked and unlocked (who would have guessed). Note the difference, use a completely different map, lock, then compare unlocked. It's probably something simple, it can't be too complexed I don't think, otherwise starcraft wouldn't run it either. Happy Hunting | ||

I could probably unlock a map in about 5-15 minutes using that guide that Mynock pasted =/. | ||
