SC2Mapster

The battle.net servers now support global play and publishing.

The best way found right now is just using SC2's inbuild region changing UI.

To make it appear, you need to create a file named "Regions.xml" in your SC2 installation folder (where your sc2.exe is). That files content should be:

<regions>
	<region displayname="AUTHENTICATION_SG_REGION" hostname="sg"
		allowedProductLocales="all" localesThatDefaultToThisRegion="enSG"/>
	<region displayname="AUTHENTICATION_US_REGION" hostname="us"
		allowedProductLocales="all" localesThatDefaultToThisRegion="enUS"/>
	<region displayname="AUTHENTICATION_EU_REGION" hostname="eu"
		allowedProductLocales="all" localesThatDefaultToThisRegion="enGB"/>
	<region displayname="AUTHENTICATION_KR_REGION" hostname="kr"
		allowedProductLocales="all" localesThatDefaultToThisRegion="koKR"/>
</regions>

For me, the region changing UI only appears after disconnecting from battle.net in the login screen as seen in the following picture.

We have space for maps and mods on the other servers, too. So, now we can globally publish. With that file, we can change the server within the editor's settings.

Enjoy! :)

inb4 the hotfix.

All kidding aside, if this works.. then this is extremely good work. We should tell Deletarius so he brings it to the attention of the right people to get it fixed!

Great find!

Dammit my maps more popular on NA than on EU:)

Well you need to click on the button near Email of yours to be editable Email and then button appears with regions.

Has anyone figured out how to publish to other regions? I managed to play on different regions but I cant seem to make it publish somewhere else.

Also it seems to me the latest update disabled the access to HotS dependencies in the Editor.

For other people too? Intentional or did it happen by accident?

Put that Regions.xml into the installation folder. Then you should have multiple entries in the dropdown in the settings window of the editor.
You should be able to publish to the other servers just fine then. I didn't test it with that, I only logged in and checked my published files as I published my work on SEA server before via a region changer tool made by the community.

You need to play a HotS game to have it enabled. Before, you can't see HotS in the editor.

I can confirm that this works, this is amazing! :)

However, is it "legal"? It doesnt seem to be officially supported by Blizzard yet.

Try the mac version of Simon's Relocalizer

I would have assumed that it would work the same way on a mac.

It's oficially not supported, yet as seen here: http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/7708263021#4 . I assume the next patch would add the support.

But I think there are a lot of things that work, but aren't oficially supported. For example, SCBW has a different rendering mode that fixes problems with missing ping bars on bnet 1, but it's not appearing in any support article...
