Unlocking a protected map (Wraith Dodge)?

Apologies if this is not the correct place to post this.

I've come across a cool map that's extremely difficult, maybe some of you have heard of it: Wraith Dodge.

It plays more like an arcade style game and haven't seen many maps quite like it. One problem I find that myself and a lot of players online are terrible at it which takes so much of the fun away from the map.

I'd like to test out an auto respawn so that it keeps players engaged and prevent them from leaving as soon as they die.

But I'm not able to open the map for editing. Attempting to open in SCMDRAFT2 gives me an error loading the map "Exception raised while loading the MPQ. The MPQ appears to be in an unsupported format."

I would attempt to remake the map but the creators have done a superb job and used some blackmagic that I'd probably never figure out..

I tried using "Unused Unprotector 2" but was no go. The file it created was much, much smaller and wouldn't open.



None.

We do a little trolling

Map unprotectors aren't officially supported here, but I think we've gotten to an era in SC's history where no one really cares if an old map is unprotected.. particularly if you respectfully leave credit to the original creator. I'd suggest googling SMC 2.88 naver, probably your best chance of getting in.

I could have a look at it if the guys over here won't have anything against it.

no shit sherlock. I wanted you explain what you mean with time capsule (hence the question mark!), because obviously what follows makes no sense. For someone so intelligent you can be quite daft at times...
