Just wanting to share a little amateur map making. Hope it's not too sloppy or nooby. :D
Also I couldn't find some kind of .smc to .bmp maker thing, only hundreds of programs that did the exact opposite.

Get a better picture and I'll analyze it for you. Use SCMDraft 2 to save the image, then open it in something like Paint.NET, resize it, and post it here.

Maps too tight and you aren't going to fit anymore than 4 players on a 128x128. Hell, most (2)s are 128x128.

Yeah, I've always noticed she was claustrophobic. I suppose I could edit it to be 4 instead of 6. I suppose 4 player maps are more common anyhows. :P
Thanks for gandering. :D

Hello

this map is cool :)



Please report errors in the Staredit.Network forum.

There are many existing maps who look like this one, but nice to start ^^
try to make more special things like bigger ramps or longer bridges (with scmdraft) and put eventually some neutral buildings or units (DTs are nice ^^) to block. (to set neutral unit/buildings into the map you have to place unit SPRITES)
otherwise you will not see them in a MP map.

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Used : " [img=https://i.imgur.com/gpOjTuD.jpeg] "

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.

Oh_Man -- true
