Free terrain maps!

I quit SC a while back, and it occured to me recently that I didn't need any of the maps I was working on anymore.
None of these were ever anywhere near finished and most were abandoned, but there's still some good terrain and such.

If you're in need of terrain, just download these and see if you can get any ideas, or feel free to use and edit the map itself (feel free to change the units and triggers and all that too).

These maps are very good =)
I may make use of the first one "Map in progress", and I will credit you for the terrain, if you'd like. Let me know.

Sure, you can give me credit, you might want to in case people walk up to you and ask how you did the terrain (and you have no idea =P) XD.
Oh and by the way, I think I used the wrong null tile, you may want to fix it. It's supposed to be the kind of null that units can walk onto and then go crazy (they act like they're constantly "jumping" another unit or whatever, until they hit normal ground - perfect zero-gravity effect =P). It's supposed to be space, and the little areas of creep are supposed to be planets (note that creep on null doesn't withdraw once the source is destroyed. It occured to me later that you could do a non-creep producing zerg building and then destroy it by trigger, and it would leave behind it's creep, allowing you to make your planets smaller and in various shapes, like I did in "Project," you may want to try that.)

I can give you the original storyline for the map if you want, although I probably won't remember it very well.

i dont know about the storyline/gameplay/everything else but after scanning over everything the terrain was blocky where you did custom stuff and pretty basic.



None.

I'm not sure what you're talking about, most of the terrain I did wasn't very blocky.



None.

I dont mean to tear you down or anything but.









I think all of these can be polished up pretty easy, just look at falkoners terrain compilation or something and see where parts can be used to make things less blocky.

Ah, ok. Like I said, these were abandoned projects, so those probably weren't finished (and some of them probably can't be fixed, ie, the waterfall).

If you don't like it, either change it or don't use it :bleh: .

How would you fix the dirt > null ?
I'm interested.

with shadows from cloaked unit buildings...
Collapse Box

but i doubt it is worth it.

How should I credit you? Is Jesusfreak your bnet account as well?

Creep. Creep rounds off null perfectly =). For the ones by the cliffs though, you might have to use sprites or just live with it (I doubt most b.net users will care if the edge of the world is a bit blocky). Or R00k's idea works too, although I don't get what it is... oh, lifted cloaked buildings giving off shadows... NICE...

Yes, Jesusfreak[LF], although I probably won't be in LF much longer.

By the way, I started playing SC again =D.

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: 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
