This patch added all possible colors to SC: https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/starcraft/t/patch-1-23-1-notes/640/40

I am using SCMDraft 2.0. IF i use a color like cyan, it defaults to red when I play the map.

Same with other extra colors.

How do I enable extra colors now that it's officially supported?



None.

Get the newest version of SCMDraft. It has support for this.

Woah, what was the string update? Higher string limit?

Unlimited. But jj or SI haven't added the ability to their launchers. (Did I get that right?)

I see you !

Limited to 65k strings / 4GB of text. Should be a significant increase over the current limits.

Is that a coincidence? The limit used to be 65000bytes-ish right? So that number has gone up to 4gb and the 1024 string "limit" is now 65,000?


How does this work with backward compatibility? Im guessing if you try and boot up a 4gb string map on older versions you'll get some sort of error msg?

I can just see someone try to reach the 4GB limit, just for the dumb fun. :)



Trial and error... mostly error.

What am I missing here? Still says i'm at 92.6% used. Wow, I can't believe the order of magnitude size increase we're getting. from 0.06megabytes to FOUR GIGABYTES

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.

I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
