Guys, I did a fresh install in a new hard drive and after installing SC2 using the battle.net app I'm facing a problem with the editor. I opens and works, allows me to draw stuff and even load campaign maps, but when I try to open any maps to the battle.net it crashes.

I login without a problem, it loads the whole document list (but only when I open the editor as administrator) and freezes. It is currently using 4 cores (more than SC2 usually does) and doing nothing. There is no Internet activity related to the editor process after some time (it uses the Internet for 2 mins to get the maps and it dies) and it is there using 4 cores at 80% each.

Anyone already had this kind of problem?

If anybody still uses the Brood War editor, I've been getting this issue with the computer's AI script. It'll use existing units to attack, but won't build any new ones. If I run the Terran Campaign Insane or Terran Custom Level scripts, they do fine (though they of course go completely ballistics due to the infinite resources I've given them) but with the easy to difficult Campaign scripts they just won't produce anything.

Does anybody have an idea of what I might have screwed up?

Pray that you publicly published it on Battle.net? Aside from that, sorry man. This is a classic case of why backing up your files is a good skill toi have.

Hey guys, I'm having an issue with the editor. I have two rock towers placed not far from each other, and when I make one collapse, the other one also collapse without having been attacked. Does anyone have an idea of why it does this?

You dont have to. Just send the map file to TL and they will eventually upload it.

I think what he's asking is where to host the map file to send it to TL for them to download. To that, I say take a look at this:

There is no quick way to mirror/rotate painted pathing, is there?

You can use the symmetry tool, it works wonders, but you can't copy/paste pathing paint as long as i know.

Has anyone been experiencing issues with the fog lately? i realized a couple days ago that the fog is not showing up in the overviews of my maps (just the overviews!), which is a pity because they now look freaking awful without the fog ;_;

The symmetry tool is great, but you can't use it with W-sym maps.

I actually have a very similar fog problem, except mine also disappears when zooming out too far in the terrain editor. I assume you made sure that fog effects are enabled under "view options" in the window where you export map images or that the view options are set to match the game.

You can try setting the camera angle to a low value (<10°) or zoom in using the zoom correction parameter; if your fog re-appears it's the same problem I have.

I messed around with the angle and i found out that the fog disappears after 30º, i also messed around with the zoom correction, i used negative (-10, -30, -70, -100) as well as positive values (10, 30, 70, 100, 300) and in neither of those did the fog show up ;_; Damn it blizzard! :shakes fist:

Yeah for non perfectly symmetrical maps you will have to do it manually :\

How can I listen to ambience soundtracks? I found the soundtrack tab in the data editor put I can't seem to play any of the sound files.

Is it possible to get rid of shoreline waves/splashes? I can't find any settings in the data editor.

Try this:

In the data editor, switch to "Table Mode" (it is one of those orangeish large buttons at the top of the data editor, or you cna use the shortcut Ctrl-1 and then Ctrl-2 to get back to "Detail mode").

"(Basic) Beach Shoreline" and "(Basic) Cliff Shoreline" are the entries you need to clear in order to remove the shoreline wave models.

Thanks! I had found those entries but they didn't have any effect; so I just tried it again now and noticed that I need to re-open the project before the changes are applied, like with the "texture prop" parameters for terrain types.

I don't know how to get harder AIs in custom games. I only have Very Easy and Easy AIs for custom. How do I unlock Medium and above?

This forum is about creating custom maps with the editor, and your problem seems to have nothing to do with that. Do you only have WoL and are using the HotS started edition or w/e it's called? That one has several features missing and I think harder AIs may be one of them. Just switch to WoL in the gameplay options menu to fix this (or buy HotS).

On the off chance that you're actually talking about the editor, navigate to map -> game variants and add the missing AIs by right klicking in the left list ("add standard").
