Is the map editor stuff strictly for messing around right now? Or is there a way for you to host these maps online to play with others?

The part where Blizzard said the map distribution system would be added in a later patch gave me the impression we wouldn't be able to play these for now.

Messing around.

We can't use them on bnet for a while. It kinda makes sense though 'cause I'm willing to bet once custom games get released to bnet like 80% of the people will start playing UMS and fastest money map and BGH-style games and not help balance shit at all x]

It sucks being European (And on a borrowed sc2 account ) and having to wait for the patch :p.

I have SO many idea's for maps and can't wait to get started. I'm currently studying bachelor in level design and this is going to ruin the summer for me

pretty cool map editor i must say.

just messed around in it for about 2 hours or so, and this is what i came up with.

[image loading]

texture and everything isn't done yet, and a few little things here and there, but for the most part, the layout and everything is set in stone.

a lot of choke points on this map, and it favors defensive play, or air.

i would also like to see the classic Stetons Gulch from supcom . i think that could be made into a really cool map for 4v4 (or perhaps 2v2 and 3v3 versions of it, scaled down.

it's impossible cuz you need to paste the highlighted portion of the map, which overwrites any terrain underneath it, before you can rotate it.

MatchPoint Lite
I call it MatchPoint Lite because it ended up kind of squished. And the terrain isn't as detailed as the original MatchPoint.

I wish I could play this with someone.

You rotate the selection before it's pasted. Drag a selection around something, press ctrl+c, press ctrl+v to get the box showing you where it's going to be pasted, go to edit -> rotate then rotate it however you want and then click where you want it to go.

I can't what for the pro starcraft leagues to make maps. They are already very creative with the limited options they have in brood war. Their SC2 maps should be spectacular.

I'd just like to point out that all custom maps are completely unplayable on battle.net, you can only test it by yourself in map editor's test feature. blizzard stated later on in beta they'll allow maps to be published, till then only blizz maps allowed -______________________________________-

It recommends that I open one of the pre-existing maps to poke around but I have no idea where that would be. Any help TL?

ok hi guys, wishbones here. Need help, and heres my current problems that make me not want to push forward.

1) How do you unlock locked maps, I've heard that trying to do that Legacy Map thing you need to unlock the locked maps.

2) I haven't tried any of the Pro League Maps, just old Brood War blizzard maps. All I got though was the minerals in their positions, and a completely black map underneath. How to fix that? What I am doing wrong. What do you do that doesn't make what I'm going through happen?

3) Yet to be decided, I have not attempted anything since I cannot figure out why this is happening, or how to unlock maps. I remember seeing the program in one of the threads, I will go through this one see if it had the link here.

edit - Alright no luck for me on finding it myself. Need some help please guys.

You won't be a premium map just because your map is symmetrical...

I did not imply this.

They've stated in Q&A they wouldn't be adding that.

That is absurd. Seems like a deliberate hindrance to encourage people to buy premium maps...

How does that encourage people?

Because it makes it much, much more tedious for an amateur map-maker to create a symmetrical map.

amateur map makers won't be making high calibre melee maps to begin with. you don't need a mirror feature to make a mostly symmetrical map.

Are you familiar with the bw scene in the slightest? First of all, there have been many, many high quality maps made by amateurs. Secondly, "mostly symmetrical" is generally not good enough for high level play. Positional imbalances are easily created by slight terrain differences.

Maybe my statement was a bit of a premature attack, but I am baffled as to the possible motive behind intentionally retarding the UI and functionality of the editor. Mirror x/y is a pretty basic function which makes functional melee maps easy for the layman to create.

If it was an easy feature to implement, they would have done it.


Dunno how obfuscated their code is, but assuming there is an underlying grid of some sort like in SC1 and WC3 (I haven't tried the galaxy editor yet), there are a number of trivial solutions to this. Reflections are rather easy to do.
