Is there any way atm that you can protect a map where it cannot be opened?

Thanks.



None.

Yeah, open up the map in a hex editor, and change a few values, the ones at the top really work if you change them.

But honestly, there is a point where StarCraft has to be able to read it, therefore no, unprotectors like Unused Unprotector can open it, as we can only protect it so far.



None.

Does trigger viewer also work for anything that is protected as well? It simply doesn't unprotect the map but views all triggers... I guess someone can also get you there as well just by viewing your triggers...

Actually, Unused Unprotector does a much better job than Trigger Viewer, as it can support Korean characters, and I'm not sure if Trigger Viewer can beat the protection done with Storm.dll, like it is with Shadow Protector.

Vrael -- yeah good point lets see the highlights reel from that

Oh_Man -- thats how it was trained to begin with, thousands of AI vs AI matches

Vrael -- see how far we can really take things
[03:06 am]
Vrael -- what they need to do is have some AI vs. AI matches
[03:06 am]
Oh_Man -- i'm sure there's a limit to that

Vrael -- if your mediocre army can fight perfectly every time, why bother with strategy
[03:05 am]
Vrael -- but from a gameplay perspective I think all its shown is that you can trade 1000's of apm to make up for lack of strategy
