Hi, I'm trying to copy some terrain from a map into another using ScmDraft. Each time I try my terrain gets corrupted (it's not the same thing that is showing (keeps the old terrain information with new visual) and it crashes starcraft at map loading. Is there a special way to proceed? A better program? Some dos and dont-dos? Please enlighten me!

It can be a lot of things. Maybe you could give us some more information about the maps and what is happening? Screenshots of the editor and in-game would be helpful, and/or post the maps here. As of now I don't completely understand what you are trying to say. What do you mean with "keeps the old terrain informatin with new visual?"

sounds alot like your copying say... badlands into a jungle map... what are the two terrain types?

I'm pretty sure they're the same

And I mean that lets say I copy high jungle on some high elevated jungle, if afterwards I put some high jungle in the copied high jungle high elevated jungle will appear all around it

or if I put water in water copied on anything else it will modify the terrain around it as if I was placing a new water tile

Ah i see what your saying.

The problem is is you place 1x1 isom of high dirt and copy that to a new map, the new map still thinks it has normal dirt there. Copying terrain is not recognised as valid ISOM by the editor.

I believe SI said he might add this feature in the next version.

Ex is right about how the terrain is 'keeping it's original properties', but I still have no idea why it would crash when opened..

I see, it pretty much means copying terran is useless tough

As for the crash I did alot of stuff (Like resizing) before the test it crashed. it *could* be unrelated

Oh! Lol, if you have an odd size and you don't play another map first before playing that map it has a tendency to crash.

Oh, so anything thats not something like 128*128, 256*128, 128*64(or w/e) will crash? Guess I'll need to add more stuff to fit in

As for the terrain if it doesnt crash the map I can manage it, thanks everybody for the answers

It only crashes if you don't play another map first.

Yeah but any crashing is bad. It's meant to be use on Bnet and I dont want to randomly crash other players lol
