Little preview of the first map. Don't worry, Dem0n, I've got a lot more done than this. Been working hard on the gameplay for this map. Music is by me.
Dem0n, consider making this contest longer by a week. Lots of people are having difficulties with the time constraints (I myself might have to cut some really awesome things from Rivalry's Zerg campaign in order to meet the schedule and I just plain and simple don't want to do that).
You guys can definitely expect something good from my submission. After the contest I'll end up bug-testing what I've released before starting the other two campaigns (for Protoss and Terran).
Symmetry -- Man I wish we had this tech back in the day when people played ums lmao

NudeRaider -- EUD actions, specifically. The conditions remained. Today we can even have actions again, but they're all virtualized/whitelisted (not sure on the actual technical implementation) so you can only use them for specific intended purposed, not arbitrary code injections.

NudeRaider -- I mean yes, maps - through EUDs - were theoretically able to do that as well, but that was patched quickly.
Symmetry shouted: Ohhh imagine a SC map that could delete itself
not the map, the editor

Symmetry -- I vaguely remember Voy doing some ACE back in the day, but I had no idea EUDs could do that kind of shit. I am very much catching up on the technology

Symmetry shouted: NudeRaider Is EUD editor capable of writing shit onto the player's harddrive? That seems like it would be dangerous
yeah an editor that isn't allowed to write files sounds rather pointless, so I'd assume it can. Like most other programs too btw. and yes, obviously that's dangerous, but also kinda necessary. MS introduced that virtualization for exactly that reason.

Ultraviolet -- I don't think so. I think they shut that shit down after 1.16, maybe even earlier
