    Hey guys,
    My name in Starcraft(IGN) is ModAllstar,
    im getting Starcraft 2 sometime,but just asking,
    how do you make a use map setting game(UMSG) in starcraft ?:wacko:
    Can you tell me all the details on how to make one?
    I think i've made one before then saved but then dont know what to do next i just saved and im making new one cause i deleted that one.
    If you can tell me a guide or if you made one and know the steps just list them in order.
    I'd really appreciate if you did :)
    Thanks guys,
    Your Fan,
    ModAllstar

    Watch out for double-posting, edit button is your friend.

    And as far as I know, no Starcraft staff are here, unless Protosschick got the job.

    But that section of the forum should help you out. A lot.

    You just open StarEdit (the planet when you open starcraft), place the terrain and units how you want and make triggers... Ask for help in the forum willy posted, most of the people who would be able to give you step-by-step instructions hang out there, but you really need a basic plan and atleast put some units down to get a basic idea of what you want.

    Also, your name is ironic...

    WOW...
    I can't even remember how StarEdit goes.

    StarEdit is good for messing around and for beginners, but SCMDraft 2.0, StarForges or SC Extra-Edit is the way to go. Advanced map editors include features such as:
    -play units anywhere
    -stack
    -change player color
    -change text color
    -255 upgrades
    -+10000hp and shield
    -advanced triggers not available in StarEdit
    -cut/copy and paste
    -square terrain
    -doodad into terrain conversion
    -and more

    As you learn, you will probably understand. Anyways, tutorials mostly relate to the kind of map you're making. Maps usually fall into there categories:

    UMS
    -RPG
    -Mass Attack
    -Tactical (impossible scenarios)
    -Bound (running past timed things)
    -Defence (turret def)
    -Melee Style

    Melee
    -casual
    -professional

    Experimental

    Its actually quite hard to give tutorials without knowing what kind of map this is. For example, learning to open and close installation doors won't help much in a RPG on Jungle terrain.

    scenario > forces, there are four forces to choose from and you can name them whatever you want in the white bar that says "force 1" etc.

    You should probably stick with staredit until you get a bit more experience.
