Well i am not that skilled at making ums maps, and i have tinkered in the past with a few things but this is the first serious maps i have decided to make. Please try them and give your input on how it can be made better or certain bugs that need to be fixed, and how to fix them.

Here is the link: <a target="_blank" href="http://www.mediafire.com/?ftc9mrymzcz">http://www.mediafire.com/?ftc9mrymzcz</a>

I just tested the first one, it was too easy, I beat it in 17:33 without building any units, I just used the ones you gave me. my main hint would be to add some color to the text, like make the names one color, I would make the actual text white so it is easy to read.

Also, use the Enter Bunker AI script to make those units go into the bunkers on the cliff.

thanks for the input, but how do you change the text colour?

ok tweaked the units a bit in mission one. Tell me if it is any different.

Get SCM Draft, you can get it <a target="_blank" href="http://Falkoner.CoW.GooglePages.com/Programs.html">here</a>, it has colors on the side.

Just use the HEX codes in the SCMDraft app. Mostly all colours are there but beware of diferent colour-suppotring computers...

NudeRaider -- blessed innocent soul knows nothing of the strife we had before EUDs were discovered :teehee:

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Symmetry -- :wob:

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings

Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.
[2026-6-20. : 3:47 pm]
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:
