Does anyone know a good SCMDraft Counter part for the mac? Starcraft.org use to have one, i remember, but the sites all suck now.



None.

You could try UnKnown Edit. I'm not sure how complete it is, though.

IIRC, there was 'starfire'. Not sure of its full functionality though.

It was worse than xtra editor on windows, and it doesn't work on 10.5 (because it's staredit based)



None.

I thought there was an emerald version for mac.

Back when I had a mac, I tried so hard to find a scmdraft variant, but to no avail. It'd be awesome if there was one when I get another mac.

Are there any editors that you guys know of that can make square terrain?




None.

I think if you change StarEdit's filename to "StarEdit (Carbon)" it does work. At least that's what I had to do on mine oh so long ago.

There are very few. You have Emerald Edit, which is identical to the PC version. StarFire Edit, which is like a bad copy of X-Tra (some units are 1x1 pixel and some are like 30x30 pixels - namely a Zergling). UnKnown Edit is okay for square terrain, though keep in mind it is essentially just a copy of GUEdit on Mac, and at the moment I believe you can only make terrain in the editor but it won't show up on the actual map in StarEdit. This may have been fixed, though. I'm not sure.

There was also talk of SCM Draft Mac for a while, but that project died a looooooooooooong time ago.

Now im all sad :-(

The editor I was thinking of though was StarFire, but I didn't know it was that bad :><:
I'll try the carbon thing, though I don't see that working.



None.

Woah

Yeah, I didn't think it would work, either, but if it's looking for StarEdit (Carbon) I just gave it what it was looking for.

They are all not worth their weight in salt.
(And software doesn't weigh anything...)



None.

Yeah, Mac map makers just get screwed.

Ultraviolet -- oh yeah probably. think I misinterpreted the original message. I thought he meant moving the flag revealed the base in the sense that it opened it up to being scouted, but what you're saying makes more sense

Sie_Sayoka -- dont those ladder maps have use map settings game type? i remember in a lot of them there was display text showing the maker and other credits at the beginning
[2025-5-14. : 4:42 pm]
fritfrat -- Good point.. maybe in Melee it sets off the hard-coded Capture the Flag logic when they pick up a p12 flag, revealing the SCV
[2025-5-14. : 4:34 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah, I forget how they do it, but they can preplace P12 units in melee / TvB maps. Maybe unit sprites
[2025-5-14. : 3:38 pm]
fritfrat -- Artosis and Tasteless were chatting on an ASL cast that 6 player maps will likely never happen for competitive SC, but Artosis mentioned how there was a concept of one where a worker had to pick up a flag to get out of their base, which resulted in their base being revealed. That's not possible with Melee / Top vs Bottom settings, is it? Thought I'd ask..

dumbducky -- I am so good at procrastinating
[2025-5-09. : 8:45 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Me too. The general concept is exciting and fun to play, or at least I enjoyed it in the previous Diplo Europe iteration.

Excalibur -- I have no idea if Clans will finish his map but I hope so.
[2025-5-08. : 5:25 pm]
Ultraviolet -- don't count your chickens before they're hatched :P
[2025-5-05. : 9:24 pm]
Excalibur -- Sie is really really good and I'm glad Clans had them do the terrain for the new map. I feel like not enough of Sie's stuff will ever get used on a finished map.
