Providing we're not stuck with the 10mb/20mb limits for publishing on launch (I'll need that space for my own maps) I'd be happy to fulfill the role of an "official hoster" for map makers on SC2Mapster for the SEA servers.
Right now obviously it's hard to tell what will happen for certain but if it is possible and you are interested in having me publish your maps on SEA then express your interest here.
Since we're a mapping site. Could we have some more activities like this when retail launch ? User from different region could help each other get their map exposed easier without spending 300$, or wait till the 1st exp.
Of course, progammer. I was thinking about setting something up come Launch to list who is on what realms. Perhaps a master list, if you will, of users. Either that, or just list a few people from each region willing to do what Maul is, ;).
Hello
What is the progress on this? Has anyone contacted Maul about uploading thier Maps to the SEA bnet for them?
If you have made a map, and would like to upload it to the SEA bnet, please post something in this thread so either Maul or Myself can upload it for you
We are desperatly out of good quality custom maps on the SEA bnet (when i saw the amount of custom maps on the EU and US bnet, i nearly cryied xD)
On the SEA bnet server their is:
21.0MB map uploading limit (total space) for each user
only 5 map upload slots available for each user
I have used 1 slot for my own map, so i have 4 slots available to upload other peoples maps for them =).
+ + + + + + + + + +
There are 2 ways for you to get your map uploaded onto the SEA bnet server that i know of:
1) give me a copy of your map and i upload it on your behalf
I can understand if you don't trust me to do this given that i've only just started posting on sc2mapster, however i have been reading the news on sc2mapster since beta...just not posting anything (also, i didn't get a copy of sc2 until retail launch)
I will provide screenshots of me uploading your map, and once its uploaded onto bnet.
And if you want me to remove the map at any stage, i will (ill give u my email so you can contact me easier)
- - - - - - -
2) i give you my login details, you change your registry so you can connect to the SEA bnet server, you upload your map yourself using my login details
If we go down this path, i want to make sure your an active member of this community, so i can trust you with my login details (please dont steal my account, ill cry :'( )
This option would take some more effort on your behalf, and if your not familiar with the windows registry might take a while... but the registry is fairly easy to learn and straight forward.
If anyone knows another method for you to upload your map to the SEA bnet server, when you yourself do not have a SEA account, please post below.
This is risky, but SEA bnet is suffering from having not alot of custom maps.
Also, if you want people the SEA ppl to worship you, this might be your best chance! xD

3) you could buy a SEA copy of starcraft 2 and upload the map yourself
just dont buy it from Ebgames Australia unless you want to be ripped off 100$ for standard edition and 150$ for special edition. JB hifi usually sells it cheaper, around 70$ for special ed.
This method would give you the most flexability, but cost u 70-100$ more moneyz
+ + + + + + + + + +
So far Myself, Maul, and Eonfuzz have offered to upload maps to SEA bnet on your behalf.
Maul has the most posts between us, and has already uploaded 2 maps to the SEA bnet that ive played (he/she was also one of the first ppl to upload their maps)
!!!If anyone else in the community is on the SEA bnet server, and is active in the community can they please post their uploading support here, that would be epic.!!!!
Anything other then Nexus Wars for SEA... that map is destroying UMS for us... mindless creations +1
I was planning on buying another account to spam hosts for some of my maps but it could be used as a hub for hosting. When I buy it if I buy it, I will let you know. probably name it Sc2MapsterSEA or something lol.
Omg! BAZINGA!
I can give Fortress Fight to SEA if anybody is interested, current published version is quite good in EU but almost nobody plays it there.
It is more advanced map than some Nexus Fight.
- Good AI opponents who know how to nuke.
- 3v3v3v3 Arena.
- Units attack bases clockwise.
- Using proper units to counter is important.
- In beginning of match players of match vote how many rounds match has and more.
- Three very different playing mechanics (SCV, Probe and Queen).
Assuming map would become popular in SEA, I would continue to keep it updated for quite while.
Guys I still have a couple of slots available. If you'd like your map hosted on SEA please PM myself or anyone else in this thread. I'm hosting Income Wars and it's dominated so far sitting #1 for almost a week straight.

Awesome Maul, thanks, :).
FYI for those who aren't sure, South East Asia covers the regions that the name suggests plus Oceania, being Australia and New Zealand.

Comply Now, Resistance is Futile!
Giggle ;), my avatar is a sheepyWas just about to make a topic about the same thing until I saw this >.< Anywho
Well, seeing as im on SEA also, I'll gladly help with the publishing if Maul runs out of space.
Alrighty lets get cracking.

@KiwiWarrior: Go
Fortress Fight has been uploaded onto SEA. It isn't very popular yet, so you will have to go to the create games section then find it.
if you want a game, contact me Gimpexe.580 (SEA)...im usually not on during the working week
Thank you Clord. Enjoy =)
I would very much appreciate it if someone uploaded - Infested Arena or I guess I could do it if that is ok? never done before...
Just watched the video of it on the main site and it looks awesome :)
I love hero def maps, couldn't get enough of them in wc3 but sadly they have been lacking in the new sc2 system ;(
