SC2 Custom map patcher
Custom Map Patcher
Custom Map Patcher is a tool that allows you to play custom map on Battle.net. (EACH PLAYERS MUST DO THAT) Do this process for all the friends you want to play with:
- Create the map "Lost Temple" on Battle.net and everyone join it
- Launch the map patcher
- Select the map you want to play and click "Patch"
- Go back to SC2 and start the game
If you are interested, there is a post explaining the technique behind it.

fury: its lost temple novice, the one you play on practice league
edit: nevermind, its not, should be a novice map though edit2: actually it does not matter, cause every time you join it downloads the original one again if you dont have it
Instead of using a map everyone loves to play like Lost Temple, why not use something like Twilight Fortress Novice like it’s described in the original thread?
Yes I'm sorry, more details:
i tried a little more, and i successfully played a custom map over the internet with a different player and HIS map (when we tried to play my map we crashed).
I thought it was a caching thing, so i deleted the entire cache and download Lost Temple from battle net (and my friend did too).
We got into a custom game (settings: custom game, on the same team).
We used the patcher both on the same map.
The maps loads successfully, but only the host gets his units, the other player always gets a map full of fog of war (but he can see the units move). When he selects something, the game crashes for both players.
The maps we tried are:
- a map with no units, and no triggers
- a map with 1 building for every player (1-14) and melee triggers.
- a map with a custom script and some basic units.
They all crashed :(. But not the game I played with Zip! (But we only got his map to work for some reason).
Ubdead, each player must do that, not only the host ;) (Sorry if it's not that)
Give me more details.
(Sorry for my bad english ;) )
Great concept, and the map loads BUT it always crashes right after. My friend and I tried three maps (one only had 1 building for each player on it, still crashed).
Great idea, please try to make this work for everybody :D!
Great idea!
Very nice, :).
