hey guys. i wanted to know if it is allowed to modify the campaign maps using the MPQ extractor and Galaxy. as in.. is it legal? i know it would only affect me since it's pure singleplayer but would it pose a danger to my battle.net account?
the game wont load the map i modified.. it will load the map from the sc2data/sc2assets i can only test the map... thats why i said that i can extract the files modify them the put them back in the archive ... and maybe then the game will load the campaign with my modifications.....
You mean you want to extract the mpq and replace it for the game to load ? I'm pretty sure you cant do it. The game has a way to determine whether that mpq is the official one. If its not, it wont load. If you can do it, do it with your own risk
ok I get what you mean now. 1) as said above I think the maps are hosted from bnet.. 2) if they are stored, when you put them back in, they wont be signed by blizzard, and the game would reject them.

Curse PremiumUmm..I believe the campaign data is stored on the internet and is un-changeable..(I might be wrong tho)
ummm.... you can just open the maps in the editor... simply go to OPEN, then select campign ....all the maps are there...even raynars ship.....
yes i know. i can modify them. but it won't load them. i more wanna know if i can get in trouble with blizz if i modify the components.

What do you mean by you cant load them? and yes, your free to modify them to your hearts content, thats why they let you do that to them.
