For Python it was understandable since it is a 4 players map anyway, but Asgard is a 2p map Agreed, this is one of the areas where the SC2 engine/editor actually is clearly superior to the (unmodified) BW editor, so take full advantage of it. | ||

I was thinking if you're worried about warp-ins to the main, you could also make the area just above the cliffs unbuildable. | ||

For example, Bel'Shir Beach (not Vestige) I've asked the creators this before, and they say they don't want to because: (1) They want Starbow to stand in it's own right, and not be associated with sc2 through the maps and (2) SCII maps simply don't work with sbow, simply because the rush distances and features are adapted for a different game | ||

Feedback: - Main bases might be too small (this is an easy fix since you already have the "not - dead space" area. - Whole map might be a tad too chocky. I would look into opening up the middle at least. I have some ideas but they are hard to explain without just modifying the map and taking a picture. - Except for that the map looks promising imo. | ||

A few things though.. First, on Python, there are two small tower-like platforms (to the north side of the 3 o'clock base AND the south side of the 9 o'clock base) that you can set a single smaller unit on (ghosts/vultures NOT tanks) which allows for high ground. Units also 'glitch' up the side of this platform by accident when you walk over there. Not sure if that is intended. Second, a couple things regarding the 'island' bases in the 2 and 7 o'clock positions. In BW there were minerals there that had to be mined before you could take one of these bases. Also, the bridge that connects the close-by-air positions did not exist. I haven't played enough games, but I am not sure about these designs ESPECIALLY if you get close-by-air spawn locations. This could be more beneficial to Starbow and the map, however, I'll have to play more and report back. Also, on Andromeda, it appears the game setting starts on "fast" not "faster" when you create the game. I know these were just released so I thought I'd give you a heads-up! Great work though! Keep it up! EDIT: it seems the python problems were only on NA, EU is perfect (except for the big white sheet which hurts the eyes, maybe do a grass theme?) | ||

And im pretty sure no one wants to see boring shit Sc2 maps in starbow. And furthermore the sc2 mapscene is for the most part inactive and does nothing. | ||

Well you start a map with the size of 148x148 or 148x110 (depening if you are porting a 128x128 map or 128x96) and then you go from there. But how fast you will do that heavily depends on how good you are with the editor, and Mereel is very good and expierenced^^ The stuff he does in 1 hour takes 3 for me.... | ||

Problem is, in SC2. If we want zerglings to be able to fit, then vultures fit as well. But not goons or tanks. Hydra and vultures are the biggest units that fit through it once it is updated. But the gap can be easily blocked by a single pylon / supply depot. | ||

I wanted to keep that round about feel for counter attacks. It is the mid map 4th base that makes the map so chocky. I can move the 4th's to the center of the map and push the main attack path out and open them up. Or, I can make the 4th a 2x gas base and open all of the center up. Also, I made the map by coping Fighting Spirit, so all of the mod is there. I uploaded it to B.net before the spider mine patch and the map updated with it. | ||

http://www.twitch.tv/tligrok/b/283705673 You just adjust map heights + Sight blockers. Then put mini/invisible xel'naga towers on the high ground that have range 9. I am not sure how to get the defenders advantage to work. | ||

The map is has Starbow dependency and you uploaded it yourself? We would like to have a certain control of the Starbow maps... | ||
