UPDATE: Xaragoth and Tinman are going to host a map session instead of the tournament. It's being called Custom Live. If you made a map you want them to play tell them! They will be really happy to do so.
Due to the lack of participants, the SotiS tournament is cancelled!. I realize that having only 2 days to find a team of 3 is a bit too hard. I am sorry for those who wanted to join and watch :(
In September 2010 Issue of PCGamer sc2mapster has been featured in the useful links for a mapping tutorial they did :) I've read those magazines a lot in my childhood and would never have thought working for a website being written in one of those! That's really awesome! Next time we make the front-page :)
Magic Arrow
I'm tired of people asking for my Battle.net ID so I've made a little image-tutorial for an unknown feature: the Magic Arrow!
Play Cinematic Scene by progammer
Xaragoth during his two workshop showed us how to use the previewer to do actual cinematics. However we had like no idea how to play then ingame, the only solution was to record them to make a video. progammer tackled this problem and found how to do it :) He made a test map that lets you play any of the campaign cinematic. However this area is still unexplored and there are still a lot of gray points.
Game - Preload "CinematicScenes/Terran01.SC2Scene" Immediately General - Wait 0.1 Game Time seconds Sound - Play Terran01_ME (Unnamed) with "CinematicScenes/Terran01.SC2Scene" using "Cam_Export" for (All players)
God's Grove by Samro225am
I do not news often melee maps as I am not really able to distinct what makes a good or bad one. Samro225am for his map called God's Grove has made a clever thing: he annoted the map with all the special elements (Ramp, Xel Naga, Expands) this way even noobs as me can understand it :)
DAG - Destroy All Monster by KerenskyLI
KerenskyLI is working on a Godzilla-type map and is proud to release the first gameplay video. He is looking for beta testers in order to polish the map before publishing it out :)
First Contact by SCLegacy
sclegacy has got an impressive cinematic team. They have released 2 videos in the past months that are just awesome. They did all the models from scratch if you wonder and gave a behind the scenes explanation.
Just wanna say that magic arrow thing is really cool, never even seen that before
