You save it where want. If you want to save it "properly", you put it in your sc2 folder in mods/maps whichever works (as in: when it is in such folder, then you can access it / open it from the editor).

yes, the editor changes every time (almost) the game is patched.
possibly that was a bug and nothing to do with the patch, possibly the editor changes bugged the map.

So I made my first map and published it, but after a short time it automatically gets some mod added to it (I already had the "SUPER-mod" and now the "DP-Terran Full Tech"). This only happens to the EU map though.
You can still open map info and create a lobby with the normal map, but the search result only gives the map + mod.

Why and how do I make it stop?

Don"t know how to make it stop, it happened to all of my melee maps, i tried to wine about it on tl too :D but to no avail.

i suppose just informing Blizzard through proper channels could help, on the other hand it is after all probably them that implemented this or at least they clearly turned a blind eye to it...

# call it Pimp my mod
(by hashtag i mean hashtag, that everyone knows about it and that it has been happening since the bnet melee mods' system appeared.

When creating a map with neutral creep tumors, what's the best way to make the creep itself initially visible through the Fog of War and on the minimap? Is there anything analogous to the "Create Visible" setting for buildings?

You could give both players (i assume this is for a 1v1?) 0.02 seconds of vision/ownership of the creep tumors
after the initialization of the map.. a simple trigger might be what you are looking for

Event: Map init

Action:
Create tumor "x01" in area "y01"
Give vision of "x01" to player 1 true
Give vision of "x01" to player 2 true
wait 0.02
Give vision of "x01" to player 1 false
Give vision of "x01" to player 2 false

or
Map init

Set owner of "x01" to player 1
wait 0.002
Set owner of "x01" to player 2
wait 0.002
Set owner of "x01" to player 0

if you need any help doing it, just message me and show me your map editor and i'll talk you through it

I was rather hoping there was a way other than a trigger to do this. Well, if it's the only way, it's the only way. I don't recall what melee maps like Metropolis did. Maybe they didn't reveal the creep?

i would vote for "no need" for anything exept "communicate" about it, put it on the map info etc nothing more because the players can see it in game when they scout, if they are "playing/focussed" that is.. maybe?

Then again i'm maybe not representative of what people think? or should think?

The idea of making a trigger is just to showcase how it would work, if blizz liked the idea they would do it differently maybe but they would put it on the ladder regardless!

There is no problem with losing the "melee tag" .. it solutions the problem to do it this way because it easily is made available for anyone to playtest it online..

it will showcase (like blizz showcases the "possible start spawns of your opponent" at the start) your special areas

(these creep tumors will be highlighted as "yours"/giving you vision .. just enough to signal itself, no real info from then on)

this will give both the minimap and the map a "special texture"
...

Telling players there is something special seems like the best idea to me
if
you want to signal it..

(again just putting it in "map info" seems fine to me)

..otherwise i'd say keep it "neutral" and do nothing
.. lets see if you get to retain the "melee map tag" with that

The idea of creating the tumors at the start makes it even funnier
since
at the start it would be a 1x1 creep area and "x" minutes later it would be a 3x3 / 9x9 / whatever.. creap spread <3

Was the creep tumor supposed to be invulnerable?

What's the deal with the shield battery in the editor? Why doesn't it appear in the units tab for melee map? And what has to be done to enable it?

It likely only exists within the Void (Multi) dependencies, in the context of a melee setting. Maps by default only have Void (Mod) You would probably also notice that spells such as Interference Matrix are also not included in default dependencies, nor the current stats of the Cyclone, in fact, most, if not all changes occuring since the last few design patches.

I'm making a complete up-to-date Texture Catalog for the Starcraft 2 galaxy editor. This would include a picture of every texture in the current version. Where would I post this? Should I make a dedicated thread for it? What should the category be? Etc...
Thank you!

You can probably just make a thread in the Custom Maps forum--I don't think it fits under any specific category. Or maybe you could post it in this thread which was never completed: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/sc2-maps/511123-all-lotv-textures-and-cliffs?

Thanks, I'm guessing I'll have it done in a few days or so. There are lots of textures. I might do doodads too, but that might get mind numbingly repetitive really fast - plus it might not be as useful.

Can you use War Chest skins for custom units in UMS maps? Will people who haven't purchased the War Chest be able to see them? Can't seem to find the answer on Google.
