For starters, the ground decal thing is just a glitch. I think the only thing one can do is restart the editor.
On the terrain, it looks a lot better now. The only thing I can think of off the bat would be to make the terrain inside the base a little less "perfect". Make it a bit more cracked, add a piece of grass or plant, add a few little rocks. I doubt they would keep it so manicured.
I think this project is officially dead unless I find away to save that map. Thanks for all the help of everyone who posted here, especially you, Mozared.
I'll probably have another thread up soon with something else.
Well, now that my other project has died due to map corruption, I've decided to start again on something new! I may post this in another thread at some point, but at this point I'm just trying to figure out how to best use the textures/doodads/ I've chosen to display the environment I am portraying.
This is supposed to be a desert/tropical island type of environment.
Got a pleasant surprise when I tried to open my map this morning. Apparently, I cannot open archive as my SCII installation is corrupt. I ran the repair tool as per the message's recommendation, but to no avail. I can open my other maps fine.
Is there anything I can do, or is my map lost forever?

I will be honest with you and tell you I don't know what that is :)
I feel it is doubtful that I have one, and even more doubtful that I would know how to use it.
Thanks for trying though.

Blizzard did it with the archon itself, so it's probably possible.

Ask around. I'm a n00b, but I'm pretty sure there is a way to do it with data with the "tint" function.(Might even be triggers)

Thanks! Just trying to get a feel for the island style.
Does these look any better?

Or as a trap to lure in those nasty ole' rebels.

Nebuli nailed most of it, but I also think it's a bit weird for a Dominion base to have a sign with "Mengsk Lies" emblazoned on it.

Tried already. :(
Well, I guess it's "So-long" to that.
I guess I've learned a lesson if nothing else.

If it helps anyone, I'm attaching the map too.

Map is corrupted. :(
Ran repair tool to no avail. Going to make a thread in General I think.

Blizzard usually bans people in waves as they aim to catch as many people as possible.

I have a feeling I got the whole point of this wrong, lol. ;)
