I'm using Char textures + grass in my map. Once you've changed the textures in the data editor go to Map -> Map Textures. Click on the texture that you changed from the original texture set on the right-side list and double click on the new texture. Works for me.
Yay. :D Thought I might have went a bit overboard on the doodads, but you're the expert here. :)
Edit: About the cliffs, well I kinda thought they were copying the terrain into their own map, so I only concerned myself with what was actually in the arena.
The event could be an Enter Region or whatever you want to trigger it with. For the first question, you could maybe duplicate the default, say, Barracks and change it to train whatever unit you don't want the others to have. Then just give it to whatever player. If you're wanting them to be able to construct this Barracks but the other players can't, then you'd have to duplicate an SCV and set that SCV to be able to make our custom Barracks. Not so sure about your third question.
Those are the ways I'd do it, maybe more experienced mappers can tell you an easier way. :)
I've set up a boss fight and he has 2 abilities, one which creates a Persistent that does a Search that applies a Damage. The other is a big Search which applies a Damage. Whenever my hero takes damage from either of these abilities all his items are removed? Lolwut?

Why not just use an actor SetTintColor message? Work's just as well.. although that's besides the point I guess.

Thanks, I just made it in about 30 mins. Took some inspiration from one of the WTEs.. 25 I think.
Your terran base project thing looks nice as well. :D I'm pretty bad at urban/city terrains, prefer to stick to ones like the Shakuras pic ;)

Shakuras. I remember walking into Zangarmarsh in WoW and just falling in love and I feel Shakuras can recreate that. :)

O.o Well I only had 290 so I guess I didn't go too overboard.

Great job, I'm just wondering if I put too much detail in my entry...

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind next time I make terrain with water or whatever. No point changing my entry now, but still cheers. :)

Thanks, I had the alpha at full so you couldn't see all the space underneath it, thought that might look a bit strange. :)

Edit: The Search didn't exclude items. Sorry ^

It was still really cool. :)

Alright, thanks for your help. I'll try this later, right now I feel like banging my head against the screen so I'll go relax and watch TV. :)
