+1 bump for such an amazing tool/idea.

I'm fairly sure my lag issues have been relieved (slightly) , but I'm even more sure that this is more useful to me as a pre-ladder psyche up. Run once, I'm automatically going to be playing better. Even if it doesn't work as intended (and I'm fairly sure it does), I feel better as a person :D

Keep up good work.

We need a preloader for HotS

I love this for WoL and use it every time I play.

Why dont games do what they used to and actuly LOAD THINGS in the loading screen instead of loading half the game and then trying to access the other unloaded half whenever you actually play?

I've been getting quite a few requests to port this to HotS. There are some complications with dependencies since the tools aren't complete in the beta, but I'll see what I can do when I have the time.

Would be awesome, one of the last beta patches reintroduced the stupid patch 1.5 stutter.

Don't really understand what the heck Blizzard keeps doing with this issue and why it's back.

Reduce loading times heavily and I think another factor is that as computers get more and more advanced streaming data during the session gets more and more viable. Don't take my word for it though!

I love this tool, but it's hilarious that someone had to make this because the game doesn't do it itself ;_;

Thanks very much!

I've gotten a lot of requests to port this to HotS, but for a while I had a lot of other things on my plate. Finally, I have an update:

A couple of days ago I managed to solve the dependency issues that were preventing me from updating the map with HotS units. I can't publish it just yet, though, because there's a Battle.net issue preventing me from logging in with the editor to publish the map. I'll publish it as soon as I'm able to login with the editor.

I am also eagerly awaiting the HOTS beta version of the preloader. It's fucking ridiculous that Blizzard still has not fixed this problem with the game a month away from launch-- in fact I find it almost comical that my entire game freezes up for a second or two whenever I spawn a unit for the first time when I'm playing with low-medium settings on a top-notch PC.

Good news -- I have a somewhat functional beta version up on HotS. Right now there are a few known issues:

- Pressing Play directly from the Arcade won't work -- you have to select "Create Game" to create a lobby and then select "Play" from there (Arcade issue)
- Loading screen is missing (editor bug, can't resolve this without making the map from scratch or until Blizzard fixes it)
- Some HotS-specific animations are missing (I will add these in over time)

Apart from these, though, the map should be more or less usable.

Is it possible that you are actually confusing something and you are trying to play with top-notch settings on a low-medium PC?
