They mension a leaked chinese account on the website. It allows them to get through the menu and pick a character, but unfortunately there's nothing else you can do with it.
Just sound assets and text at the moment, texture/model will need a viewer to be able to view or import anywhere. Also the client number seems to be changed so this leaked one will do nothing, if you get into beta you will be likely to download another version to play
I know progammer... ive been looking through the client for hours =P
\. Still the SC2 editor is a good artistic outlet as a hobby.
I think you said it beautifully there. Its a fantastic tool for people who love just to sit down and makes things, when they dont care if others see it or not, and just want to make something for fun.
Its the sc1 editor that I played around with for years so so so many years ago that got me into programming in the very first place. I think thats why I feel so strongly about the sc2 editor (due to what the sc1 editor meant to me)
But if you really want to make games for people to really play, and make a good money off of... yeah you shouldnt be scared to take the jump. Triggers are simple, but if you got them down, you understand the basics of programing already.
No official exporter/importer for models. So all you can do is make MAPS. And modding the game is hard since you dont have exporter/importer for models.
wait what... I dont know if serious. (about the importing)
If you want your work to be enjoyed by tens of thousands of people, you need to make an complete game. If you want to make a game by yourself, then SC2 editor is the tool for you.
see thats where I disagree...as of right now, its NOT sc2 editor.
flash on newgrounds
Unity/unreal/hammer on steam
..ect thats where its at if you want people to see it as well.
Even then if you are only using the assests in sc2.. even with new gameplay, your game is still going to be like all the others, theres only so much you can do to make it unique. if your going to spend them time to make it unqiue, with our own UI, and graphics..ect.. then moving out of it is a grand idea, and as the OP said, its very very easy, a lot easier than people think.
Once the Pop system is changed around, I think sc2 mapping will be a grand place to be, just not right now.
Thats the exact reason you dont see me doing many maps at all, and only a tech demo here and there.
I spend my time doing web/standalone games that any user, anywhere can enjoy while I have no limitations working on it.
Problem with sc2 it takes more work to make something that first only people with sc2 will see, and even then its limited again.
The truth of the mater is I program for myself, and not others, but it sure is a billion times better when others get to enjoy you what you made out of your own enjoyment.
But Im not given up sc2 dev like you tho =P Theres room in my heart for all forms of programming.

well said, If you'd like to help the poster by all means do it, but he wasnt asking what your thoughts were on commentating. Try not to be rude.

I wouldnt go with noscript at all... it breaks WAY to many needed things on sites.
Simple make a map, and become an "author" and ads will go away. (I think author is still ad free).
but I agree... these ads with sounds are figgen crazy [and before anyone says it, no I dont use adblocker cuase I dont support it]
