SC2Mapster

Quote from Cyrileo: Go

So a long time ago I made a map called Ultimate tank Defense, it was fun way back when and many people played it, but I got bored and quit SC2 but now I want to work on my map again, and heres the problem:

I LOCKED THE MAP

And my computer crashed about 7 months ago and I lost all copys of the map, all I got now is the earliest beta version, which is something but really nothing much.

Anyway what I'm asking is if you good people know a way in which I can overcome the stupid locked crap(Seriously, why cant the PUBLISHER re-download their own map?), because Blizzard technical support just told me too ask you guys because they don't do editor stuffs.

Thanks

lol buddy your not alone i had made a really sweet TD game and i wanted to buff it up more well.....the file corrupted and i locked the map...-.- stupid idea DONT LOCK YOUR MAPS!!! BIG WARNGING BIG WARNGING BIG WARNGING BIG WARNGING BIG WARNGING BIG WARNGING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and so i just let it go case closed it was really sad but yeah go with exaken or dRag's idea's :/ sorry

Got a little problem, everything works great, but my turret is inside my bunker.(it should be on top of the bunker) So i guess there is someting wrong with the offset of the turret. I checked the offset numbers but they are ok. Does anyone know what i forgot?

Great tutorial tho.

hmmm seem's like the height of the turret attachment is off the height is Z try setting higher like 10 or something and mess around with it until you get it right

I recommend posting when you have a specific issue you need help with. In one of the forums, I think Tutorials, there is a Mapster Mentoring thread, long list of people that will help. Its pretty outdated though, so you'll have to check which people are still active. People are open to being PMed and possibly even added to IM programs and so on. The Mapster IRC is also a good place to find help.

In this current thread, no one can really help you because we don't exactly know what you need help with :/ Stuff in the editor is very specific, so "generalized" help is hard to come by.

alright...i just kinda wanted a team for this game but ok

We're getting there. Is this a map request/suggestion/idea? If so, I should move this thread to the appropriate forum.

"Hello i just need some help with this map i am making" Its an idea i just need some help making as i said before

Take some of these and insert them into your post, then I'll try to read it again.

Ok thanks for that im sorry now it's readable

Hello people i just need some help with this map i am making, yes i will give you credit in the game i mean who wouldn't! If i dont you can always report the game :). So i just need some help with it, and the map all you do is the first thing your talking with your buddy in this police department, and then after that you go to the commander. then you have a mission and a little objective pop's up, and then you get in a police car and go. there is a body and you find clues pin it down to a person find some more clues and either catch the criminal or you have to look for more clues, and your buddy is another player and i guess maybe some of the criminals could be players to but yeah we will get more into it once you join, also i have worked a little on it already there's just problem's and stuff i would like you to make, so anyone?

@MasterWrath: Go

i know how to make the +5 thing show up first:

make a variable and call it mineral unit and inside make it unit type and below that make it the unit you want to be generating minerals then make a trigger and call it minerals +5 then inside that do this:

Events: Every 5 seconds of [Real Time] Conditions: put your mineral unit variable here and dont do anything else with it Actions: Display [+5 with the teal color] for [All Players] as a [Chat] message

and you are done hope this was correct
