hey, i built a map, which works without any problems in single-player, its not an ums, just normal melee map...
but when i come to battlenet, and create game with this map, it doesnt want to start uploading to anyone... also i cannot see a map preview... also tried to send it to a friend by icq and then play it togehter - nope, it always says the same, map scenario is still being distributed.... anyone know where can be the problem with my map ? it's not my first map and i never had this problem before...

i know it's maybe an stupid fault, but i cant find out whats wrong :(
... so thanks for ur help and understanding :)

Maybe you used some illegal characters in map or force names or have a force with both computer and human players.

What exactly is the code for your map title? Stacked text no longer works, and some things, like line breaks don't allow others to join either.

It sounds like people can join but they don't download the map.

What's the size of the map?




May 10 2008, 8:01 pm velkej Post #5



map size is 256x256 / file size is 130kB
there isnt any computer players, all players are set to human control
in map name, there is used symbol "&", nothing else special
and yes people can join the game, but downloading wont start

so do you see some probs now ?

How 'bout the forces, anything funky going on with them?

Try removing the '&'. Don't know, but it's worth to give it a shot.

Ultraviolet -- Yeah, I suppose there's something to that

Oh_Man -- whereas just "press X to get 50 health back" is pretty mindless
[2024-5-06. : 5:02 am]
Oh_Man -- because it adds anotherr level of player decision-making where u dont wanna walk too far away from the medic or u lose healing value
[2024-5-06. : 5:01 am]
Oh_Man -- initially I thought it was weird why is he still using the basic pre-EUD medic healing system, but it's actually genius

Ultraviolet -- Vrael
Vrael shouted: I almost had a heart attack just thinking about calculating all the offsets it would take to do that kind of stuff
With the modern EUD editors, I don't think they're calculating nearly as many offsets as you might imagine. Still some fancy ass work that I'm sure took a ton of effort
[2024-5-06. : 12:51 am]
Oh_Man -- definitely EUD

Vrael -- that is insane
[2024-5-05. : 9:35 pm]
Vrael -- damn is that all EUD effects?
