Does anyone know how to use it so it would recompile the map, or does anyone know of a different tool that would recompile the map from its sections?
None.
Using Mapkit for String Editing
There is a program called MapKit on Maplantis which can seperate a map's CHK into sections, and manually access the String section, and you can edit it right. But apparently the "CompileMap" that would recompile the map from its sections doesn't want to work for me.

Wouldn't it be simpler to use SCMD's string editing tool? Or are you using a mac or something, and therefore can't do that?
None.
SCMDraft? Can't use that. I must decompile the map into pieces and edit the string section individually, because the map itself cannot be neither unprotected nor opened by SCMDraft.
None.
I order you to forgive yourself!
Can you post the map?
ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!
mapkit just separates scenario.chk into sections. I can't get compile map to work either. Just manually put in the fixed string section back into the chk.
"Parliamentary inquiry, Mr. Chairman - do we have to call the Gentleman a gentleman if he's not one?"
Uh... The question is, how do I manually put the fixed string section back into the chk? 
In case people wanna know, I have found a program that is capable of reversing CMP Debugger's protection, but only to 1.70 state, and that cannot be unprotected too well. But it keeps the map in tact, therefore the STR section can be modified to translate korean maps. I'm sure there is a way to fix this issue with MPQ Repair (by Special) but I couldn't get it to work, probably needs a korean windows XP like CMP Debugger 1.70.

find "STR" in both scenario.chk and the string section, then copy/paste in a hex editor back into the chk. If you insert (which you should) make sure you delete the old string section up until whatever comes next in the map. See scenario.chk format for more details on all that in the wiki.
"Parliamentary inquiry, Mr. Chairman - do we have to call the Gentleman a gentleman if he's not one?"
The original map file is the same as the Scenario.chk, right? Except the map can also include external files like WAVs next to the CHK, and so it is a part of it.
None.
ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!
scenario.chk is a raw format. mapname.scx is a mpq archive. scenario.chk is a file inside of mapname.scx, alongside any wavs and external files. The chk is the map itself. Any wav files referenced in there reference themselves through strings in the chk, which point to the wav file in the mpq archive.
open the scx in winmpq to extract scenario.chk.

"Parliamentary inquiry, Mr. Chairman - do we have to call the Gentleman a gentleman if he's not one?"
Ehhh... I extracted it, put in the new STR section with Notepad, and afterwards it says it's invalid. I don't get it why. Any ideas?
None.

I use notepad++ with the hex editor plugin.

Aaaaand done! Thanks everyone for your help, now a half-english version of TWOE II is complete!!! 
I used Hex Workshop to do it and this way now it works flawlessly.
Truly I am in your debt.

Still going.. strong is debatable though.[04:13 pm]
WeirdoX4857 -- I can't believe this is really been around since 2003 but it does look classic and old asf still better than talking to kids on discord ranting about skibidi toilet and sexuality or whatever mental illness is going on in their heads[04:11 pm]

so it can be beaten by a prepared pro, even in macro games, if only barely. the muta micro in particular seems really hard to handle for protoss ground though. In the open goons can't catch them, in the base they trip over buildings, it just instantly flies out of storms and they fly circles around archons. Mass cannons do work, but can't cover the whole map with it. Probably need mass corsair to counter and hope you can outmaneuver all the scourge.
