Compressor/Protector?

I seem to be having a problem. Uberation gives me a bad script error but ProEdit works. Thing is when I compress and protect it the strings mess up completely so I have the force names as some of my unit names, heh. And if I protect it only it messed up in the game. HP values are incorrect etc. What's the problem here or what are some better programs to use?

Try all of these programs: TinyMap, OS Map, OS Map 2, PROEdit, Shadow Protector, Special Protector, Uberation 2, Uberation 3, and StarForge.

I would try all of them, find which one makes your map the smallest without bugging it up, and stick with that one.

If TinyMap doesn't work, the creator is still working on it. So you can go bother him.

If OS Map doesn't work, the creator doesn't give a crap, so don't try to bother him :bleh:

Compressing IS protecting for some protectors. Use TinyMap because it's new. :D

Armor: 90.50%

I've had some weird cases where I had to go open and save the map in different editors for certain protections and compressions to work without crashing because of string problems. Try opening and saving your map in StarForge before using ProEdit, it never got along with SCMDraft 2 for me. I thought I was the only one who had this problem... apparently not.

NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating
