Hi.

So I have this idea for quite a long time, I'm not sure if I'm up to it or even if it would be realizable. But I think it would be awesome. So I have a few questions, I hope someone takes the time to answer a few of them. I want to transform the single player missions into coop for two players, each with a hero (for example one plays Raynor, one plays Tychus), and on top of that apply my melee mod to them.

1) How would I apply this mod of mine to Blizzard's campaign maps? Would this screw up a lot? AI? I am ok with the CPU player having the standard units, while the human players having my mod units. Would that work?

2) I know that you can download maps & mods and then play them offline, make the savedata (hero experience) transfer from level to level (although I don't know how to do it yet). But coop I would have to publish to what was formerly known as battlenet. Correct? Would this still work?

3) If I modify the melee mod later on, would the changes be applied to the maps? I heard something about a master mod file, but I dunno how that works... (Edit: I planned to make the heroes in the mod file, so they're globally the same.)

xD I think I need help with this, if I'm ever gonna to realize it....

PS: Is this the right section to post this?

Thanks for the responses. Hm. I guess, I'll just try with the first map then. But I need to add the heroes first anyway.

Good old fashioned Raynor commando. I want the players to level ingame, just like in WC3.

My plan ist to add Raynor and Tychus for the Terran campaign, each player controlling one of them. They can also have little conversations to add to, or rather fix the story.

Another question: do the Actors/Models have animations to put their weapons away, like the Ghost? There are multiple Raynor Marines, one with a sniper, one with a machine gun. I'm thinking, I might give them an ability to change between the weapons. If that's not too difficult...
