Edit: new version is up, check it out at the url below. Including localizations.

Hello everyone - I'm surprised I didn't find my way to this cool place sooner, even one of my maps made it here before me. :-)

Anyways, here's another one for you guys to chew at.

http://www.sc2mapster.com/maps/hexd/
Six player spellcasting arena battle. Master your spells and outsmart your opponents with them. First to 15 kills wins! Rematch vote after each round. Empty player slots will be populated by computers. The AI has 4 difficulty settings.


I seem to be getting an error when trying to attach the map to this post, so I'll leave it empty for now. Follow the link above to be sure you're getting the most up to date version.

Nice. You work fast. How'd you find us anyway?

Wow, that really is the greatest custom map I've played!
Make moar! I love how you made an AI too.
It was becoming boring to play alone ;o

Who showed you this community? It's the best. =)
I hope you'll stay with us!

By the way, I'd just like to suggest you to randomize the environment effects (based on the beautifulness of the pictures I've seen hosted on Sc2M) for every play (sunny, lunar, foggy, etc.).

Now That was Amazing..
This isn't even a week after the galaxy editor is released...

I've played it with 3 friends on B.Net: it was laggy ;o
Kinda ruined it, but was still fun to play

Very, very nice. Won first round, yay me.

Cool map
I lost first round and my score was 0 when every ai had at least 10.
yay me for reading tooltips.

Heey, thanks for the replys folks. :-)


D:
This was unexpected. Isn't lag over B.Net usually caused by memory leaks? I haven't given them a single thought when triggering because I have been under the impression that Blizz's memory garbage thingy system would take care of all that in StarCraft II?

It was more of a high latency than lag, in fact. Anyways! We could still play, it just wasn't as great as with CPUs.

Hey look, it's Warlock for SC2. That's badass.

I know one of those spells are from mothership slow time thing, and stalker teleport what is the rest of it please do tell

other 2 = dual blue orb + green orb

He updated his map, by the way. Go download the latest version! =)
I know the fourth spell is a mix of the protective spell of the Sentries and the time-distortion spell of the Mothership.
For the rest, I really don't know. XD

Sorry




where do i put the map?

I suggest you to put it under "Starcraft II/Maps", it's a specific folder where you can put your maps.

New version is up at http://www.sc2mapster.com/maps/hexd/ Including a new spell, vastly improved AI, and localizations.

I see no new spell: http://www.sc2mapster.com/maps/hexd/pages/spells/

Argh, I didn't think anyone actually read that. xD

Gotcha!
Btw, I hope you like the description I've made of your map right there: http://www.staredit.net/starcraft2maps/3-Hex%27d
I'll upload the map's version as soon as I can (right now, it causes a bug).

Yeah it's real neat, thanks.
Hope you didn't go to too much trouble making it. I'm currently almost too bored with Hex'd to continue the project. :< I've been trying to make other stuff, but so far all I've ended up producing is a few mediocre melee maps.

If you are searching projects to work on, I'm your man! XD
By the way, publish the latest version on the US server... we only have version that no one plays
