Actually sc2bw is featured in EU. I also left my computer with a public game running on sc2bw all day , python has 8 hours played today I think it helped ^^.
Problem is that games that are not made public are not taken into account in the popularity system ,and a lof a people don't know that. Maybe you should add something in the map description to ask people to make their games public.

The fucking Custom map system. This game will just not get high on the list.
The games in the "Up-and-Coming" category are doubled. There are at least 3 of each map on there.

An idea for letting more people know about the mod: if somebody has a really good replay, try to send it to one of the top casters. Some of them like Diggity and Husky often cast "fun games" between the pro games, so they might do it. Just a thought.

I'm a big fan of this map, I've showed it to 2 friends.
But for some units could there be retro models made? The current bc model seems very off from bw, and I still think the wraith laser projectile looks more like the bw laser.

Finally, the comsat seems to impede mining by quite a bit, was this the case in bw?

I don't want to be a buzz kill (especially since you know this already), but the published python on EU is bugged. This in itself might not be a big problem, but unfortunately the map is also featured, having it working would probably help with the player base issues.

Also, great work on the mod, I've really been enjoying it.

yeah looks like its not localized and you cant change options in the lobby, could you please upload a localized version so I can update it on EU?

they dont. but if you target a friendly unit. that specific unit should take damage
but splash damage will never affect friendly targets

These updates are quite exciting! Can't wait.

A small image from me just to update you guys on the Creep Colony. Don't worry the textures aren't 100% yet, and some parts are still begging for some resizing.

Regardless, just letting you guys know it's still being worked on:

The creep colony looks good imo. I played zerg in bw for 4 years and I was never able to tell what one would look like in real life because of how untextured it was. :D

One thing I'd like to ask, does anyone else feel like the spire should be taller? In bw it looked as if air units could crash into it but in SC2 flying units fly way above it.
