How come people haven't started making different models for ums yet? They've clearly stated that the sc2 map editor is capable of anything that the warcraft 3 one is and people have had more than enough time to make something. So im just guessing that blizzard hasnt enabled it yet?

People have, but since there is a limit on map size, custom models are difficult to incorporate.

I threw a custom model in my melee map (which breaks the true melee status, by the way). It took a while to wrestle all the parts together and into the map just for a static doodad.

But really, there are just so, so SO many cool things the data editor can do over the original Starcraft editor and War3's that people are going to be exploring ideas for a long time. I think once UMS get really mature someone is going to set out to make a high-quality project and the custom models will start popping up.

Until then its just too easy to make something amazing and new that custom models are probably too much effort.
