HI,
I am currently making a Cat n mouse ore warz map and am seriously needing help... before i tell you about it i have to say that i just bought the game after looseing it and getting a better computer and have no mods or anything like that to it except what came with the battle chest....

The map is 256*256 (biggest it can be)

So here are some bugs i encountered while testing it with my 2 bro's.....

1. After about 5-8 mins my 1st bro was 'disconnected'' folowed by the other on in a 30 sec timespan or so...

2. Once we started to expand our bases the cheese walls (protoss pylon) started to only produce half the circle of building area in which you could build on and about 20 later the stopped conpleatly but could still be map.... This also happed with the protoss stargate, and the other one that makes ships but instead of no building space the never fully came out of warp and were just a wast of space and V. gas....

3. Also we had all started to make carriers but after a while the would say "cannot produce unit" but it would still come out just not fire once i built the intorcpters

4. About 20 mins in everything i owned got destroyed and i loss the senario... im not sure if this happed cause i had more that 1 protoss builder and 1 may have died....


Those were the bugs during the first test run... some of them might have been because of building limits but not sure.. also is there a mod or something that most people use because when i would load other C N M maps into the campaingn editor it would say

"this scenario contains 54 units that are invalid or not properly placed. this is most likely a result of a placement error in an older version of the campaign editor. the invalid units have been deleted"

Does anyone have any suggestions or any ideas to help my map work.......


Thanks for any help,
Camul2

Well I can't help you, but welcome. I hope someone will help

Welcome to SEN. You copy/pasted that post into the UMS Help topic you made, didn't you? Also, try not to abuse the bbcode... makes things hard to read. Also also, make sure to read forum rules before posting. Here are a few links you should skim over:

Welcome! May your stay be pleasant and your kiwis be delicious! I hope your mapping problems will be resolved as soon as possible.

Cannot produce more units, means that you have reached the absolute limit of the amount of stuffs you can have in starcraft. Namely 1700ish units... I forget the exact number. Also, 256x256 seems unnecessarily large for a C&M map...

Anyhow, Welcome to SEN, hope you have a good time, and make sure to do this to Fire_Kame at least once in your life:

Hello camul2. Would you like a slice of this delicious cake?

mmmmm infernos cake

It's after 1650 units that the game has CCMU.

A 256x256 map for CnM OW is WAY too big. Too much space, especially if there is a human cat. Try cutting it down to 128x128 or 96x96. If you post in Map Production forum under 'UMS' I can help you more. Remember photos and the map itself!

What about my pizza?
My restaurant is much better than Inferno's!
I got some celebrities coming in often: Lethal_Illusion, Kaias... just to name a few!

1650 is the limit of preplaced units, 1700 is the actual limit in-game.

Hi, welcome to SEN.
You've come to the right place ^_^
