Hello... I know the Basic of Stacking names but having trouble stacking long names i got scdraft and sc xtra etc..

like my names TripN420
ex: <13><1F>TripN420<12><1D>TripN420 (Tab 4 times then 2 spaces) the bigger the name less tabs but i cant do big names that are atmost 14 characters ive done it before to the name "soul_of_dragon" in BoundNControl 7 with muilti colors but cant remember how ...
if you could help ill really appreciate it, its been bugging me the last couple days :crazy:

p.s the only way i stack muilt colors with my name is copy paste in sc draft then open it in sc xtra and add colors

Colors don't take up any space, so they shouldn't affect your overlaps. If your overlaps are affected after adding colors, you may be truncating the end of the string.

Code
<13>soul_of_dragon<12>soul_of_dragon
It laps that name perfectly without any additional spacing at the end required.

Some names take up too much space, in which case you can only overlap part of it, like so:
Code
<13>WWW_So_Long<12>WWW_So_Lon

I have a name stacking/in-game text stacking generator that I can put on here later (I'm at school right now). Also Soul_Of_Dragon HA! He's pretty bad at SC on East.

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.

Mr.BurnLiquid shouted: Ultraviolet Thanks; I'm new to the site and a Spanish speaker. I must have missed the part where it was prohibited—I'll change it now.
I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
