Thanks so much for this mod, it's sick XD So much fun to play and more forgiving than the old school bw with MBS and unlimited selection and worker rally =)

Hey mav, just a heads up, for whatever reason a few maps don't seem to keep the same ranking overall. Maps like FS and Destination keep different records in terms of W:L and Rating.

Not a huge issue, but just something that I catch when ever I play series that are more than 3 or so games that change maps.

i know, no idea what the cause is
all maps use the same source for triggers now so it should all be identical

Just a thing about Irradiate: it's too small. Can you increase it about 1.25~1.5 the size?

These maps are incredible. They are SO professionally done, and work absolutely perfectly. The units look incredible, the maps are done just right, the spells work perfectly, it is so much fun to play. I wish I could play this on ladder instead of sc2 : ). However, I also hate these maps. They make me miss lurkers too much. It's painful as zerg to have to go back to sc2 with no lurkers or defilers.

Played a fun pvz on fighting spirit :

pvz fighting spirit (click on the link to dl the replay)

I'm a noob, so i completly messed up the BO that I wanted to do (+1 speedlot) ,but still managed to do a lot of damage , after that the game got messy. The game was played on hardcore , which is part of the reason why my macro is that horrible , if you want high level play don't watch it , but i had a lot of fun during this game so I figured I would share it

Maps can't exceed a certain size, or you can't upload them.

FS is 128 by 128. IIRC, the map can be that size in SC2. You have to adjust the camera boundaries though. I'm not sure if the models in SC2:BW take the same number of tiles as their SC2 counterparts though. Are you talking about the map file size?

This map is awesome, especially to give my friends a feeling of how Brood War felt like, though with the new graphics and pathing it still is a little bit better as it feels smoother.

looks better. less cramped down the sides. still looks a little cramped from bridge to centre obstacle distance but not a big deal anymore with the thinner wall thing

well with the new unit sizes i can fit more dragoons than you did so it might be more open than intended

Do you have any plans in future editions to have more current maps (i.e. those in the SPL currently, like Empire of the Sun or La Mancha)?

either way, great game work thusfar, it feels incredibly broodwar-like so far.

most of the maps are exceedingly difficult to port
as BW did ramps on 30 or 60 degrees, instead of 45 and 90 degrees for sc2
for maps like la mancha where the entire map is practically dictated by the ramps, it changes it drastically. theres one guy who remade la mancha but i think it's too different for me to use =\
i only have 1 map slot left iirc and thats going to be used on my micromacro map
i'd have to buy starcraft 2 a 3rd time to upload more maps

I see, that is quite unfortunate =( ah well it happens, I can't complain all the maps are pretty damn well done anyway. Though if you ever need someone to upload other maps for you, I probably won't ever do anything with my slots and would be more than happy to upload some for you.

And my axe.

On side note, would you want me to send you the air units size, with similar calculations to what I've done with Terran ground units? I'm in a good mood to help. ^_^
