MapCraft Download

MapCraft 1.5 is a program that allows PC and Mac users to play custom games over Battle.net 2.0 with multiple players. A single player feature is included as well, primarily for Mac users who have no map editor to run Test Document on. As of MapCraft 1.4, Extinction is now the default Multiplayer map.

Starcraft 2 M3 Plugins for 3ds Max

Starcraft 2 Model (.M3) Plugins for 3ds Max is a Starcraft 2 Model plugins designed for 3ds Max 2010. Should work with 3ds Max 6 and above. The importer and exporter will now be bundled together along with Starcraft 2 object definitions for using custom objects (materials, maps, UI, etc) within 3ds Max. I've chosen to distribute them together so that the object file definitions are in sync with each script.

SC2 Localizer

SC2 Localizer - It's the original localization to take the data from and use for the other localizations. There's no single localization, it will add any missing ones/change existing ones to primary one. Well, it's intended to throw an error if you've already opened the map with MPQEditor/GE (crashing atm) having used a try & catch there.

SC2 Map Analyzer

SC2 Map Analyzer analyzes melee maps and creates PNG images and CSV spreadsheets with the results. It measures shortest paths between key locations, computes "openness" around the map and measures positional balance! Use it to gather data on the official maps or help develop your own.

Starcraft 2 Unused Hidden Terrain Textures

Starcraft 2 Unused Hidden Terrain Textures - 11 hidden, unused terrain textures found while digging through the files. Most of them are rehashed versions of already known textures, but some (Meinhoff Grating or Port Zion Tiles) seem to be unique. The attached SC2Map file has all the textures arranged into two tilesets. Simply ctrl+c/ctrl+v them into your maps/mods.

Starcraft 2 MapCache

Starcraft 2 MapCache Your assessment appears to be correct. My only recommendation would be to tell them to follow proxy standards. They are returning cached files based on the first X amount of data instead of the filename. In fact, it may even be a security issue. Compare the zipped file below with the unzipped one. If they're different, see the security advisory I put out for Orcon. Placing the included file into your cache folder will fix the issue: 640243aa437b04c73a608f46ed6c380110c7fb70585789b400e8679a33d5693b.zip EDIT: Opps, forgot to say where... \Cache\64\02 is where it needs to go. The cache folder is organized by \first2letters\second2letters\. The file names themselves are the sha-256 hash of the file. Unzipped (to see if that security issue is still there): 640243aa437b04c73a608f46ed6c380110c7fb70585789b400e8679a33d5693b.s2mv Download links : 640243aa437b04c73a608f46ed6c380110c7fb70585789b400e8679a33d5693b.s2mv 640243aa437b04c73a608f46ed6c380110c7fb705

Battle.net 2.0 Core Issues

Some of the core problems with Battle.net 2.0 are being discussed on the Bnet forums. Question : Player-based "core" issues, in no certain order: 1. Are chat channels predicted to be coming sooner than later? 1.5. Will we have private channels much like the B.net 1 structure, even without the presence of public default channels? 2. Is LAN play restricted solely to tournaments, given the information provided about "Premium" edition? 2.5. Will LAN see a future in retail versions of SC2?
