SC2Mapster

Added a page to the wiki for allowed animation names you can use a combo of them I do believe.

http://wiki.sc2mapster.com/galaxy/data/animation-names/

First id like to say, this tutorial has just had a massive update!

Still looking for help with my problem. I use to be able to do it all fine and dandy.

It seems like its not allowed to read in that directory... thats something your going to have to post about in the WMV thread (in the art section, he has a thread)

How did OP manage to extract those human buildings and get them converted to M3?

WoW model viewer is only useful for crashing when exporting WMO's as OBJ's or LightWave models.

Im not sure I understand... I was able to do it via the way the tutorial says. what part are you having issues with, ill be happy to point you in the right direction.

Hi, I have a question about the popularity on sc2mapster. My map Island TD on EU server is on sc2ranks.com, but it is not on sc2mapster. It's bug?, or popularity does not work any more on sc2mapster?

Hey Korvin, that was coded by V awhile ago..and am not sure how he has it setup ... I have not seen any of the maps change...so im not fully sure its even working anymore.

looks flashy, and I like flashy

To get better? :)

And ur P.E. classes were awesome.

but I had no desire to get better at something I didnt like in the first place=P

That's not being smart, but being afraid to be the worse. Sometimes in school we had to do what our P.E. teacher wanted us to do.

had nothing to do with being afraid... why would I play something I wasnt good at? (and all my P.E classes we picked what we wanted)

Who was never the last one to be picked up at least once in life, leave this community immediately.

I remember being so terribly bad in basketball that no one wanted me on their team. :(

I was never picked last... but thats because I was smart enough to play something I knew I was good at in which I would not be picked last...= P

I don't browse for videos like this. My college teacher showed that in class today, so I decided to share it here because my reaction was pretty much like Molsterr's reaction. :P

The film was shot here in Vancouver and got some rewards. It is intentionally funny. Sad, but funny.

its like a dark twisted version of Napoleon Dynamite

this.... ummm and then... but.... anad it.... and .... but... they.. ummm .... WHAT!?

@Zelda Im sorry but I Lol'ed... its just so... wtf (the point of it im sure)

edit: wth is with those credits tho? that...seems like a few to many people for something like this.

python games: btw as everyone is saying, learn your main languages first.

Trouble is, will that be too late? My worry is not that it won't happen, just that it will happen when nobody cares about it and lots of people have given up map making.

because people that stopped are locked out of the editor once it happens? People that are maken maps for the soul reason of being #1..and not because they love doing it dont really matter if they leave and never come back, its the ones that truly love what they are doing.. they will stay (or will come back when the time is right) and they are the ones that matter.

Things are going to happen soon + two more expansions ... it wont be to late

You know, this website isn't exactly poppin' these days, a lot could be done to bring more people into the fold. A "hello reddit" for either one of these "big" (relatively speaking of course) news stories would do a lot to build community.

Feels like the pointless fanboy clashings in here are having an adverse affect on the website and map making community overall if you wont run with a good story when it pops up, they're not exactly common these days.

Here's an image for you: http://sc-reborn.com/images/starcraft-logo.jpg

its not that hard to get a youtube video..... thats how we usally find "amazing" looking things, either 1, we see the video in the project, or someone PMs us asking for a front page, and we tell them to make a super quick video it helps the map maker more than anything, if you have a video that looks awesome, your going to have more people click that link in the news to take a look at it.

(its important to note I think it would make for great news on the front page, but we need that video)

on a side note: onetwo makes some of the best videos ive seen for peoples maps, send him a msg. and see if he'll make you a sexy video that just makes people go wow...

No video, No SS, no font page.

Most internet users dont like text. Imagine that?

Quote from Ardnived: Go

I concur with Molsterr.

What we have right now is great! Sure there are things that could make it amazing, and I am sure we will see those down the line.

Blizzard is on it. Remember, as always, their slogan is "It'll be done when it's done."

Thats what im talking about.
