I've reccently been playing income D made by Vic from this Clan. I enjoy it very much however, I'd like to test and play around with the map. May I have permission to do so?



None.

As long as it's unprotected, I don't see why not. Obviously, if he has protected it, then it was done for a reason. If that's the case, you can unprotect it, or respect him and leave it alone/get an OK.



None.

Woah

All Vic's maps were protected. Most have since been unprotected and, to some extent, stolen.

If that's the case, at least have the decency to credit him, heh.

Most stealers did in the beginning.. than it got bad.. So there nothing we could do about it except listen to sixen's advice.

The players know when there is a map is stolen. Someone like t3hprxm4pper would not be able to make a map such as Income Def.
Most players do know that Income Def is made by Vic, as well as Path Def.
I think we are lucky that Starcraft is played by an older generation the at least has some decency to respect the map.

Many kids these days do not care to respect the work others put into the map.



None.

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.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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?

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
