Hurry up with this map it sounds cool! And i cant wait for it to come out!

Lol, I just read this thread for the first time today, and yes. I totally agree with all the others.

I suggest using SCM Draft 2 (Beta 0.7.2). I think it works wonders and is way better than all the rest. I just re-released HGMA Defense, since the old one was corrupted and you couldn't play it online, and that program is the BOMB!

Anyways, have a good one.

he can't, he uses a Mac. otherwise, he'd be done this map already.

Say what?

he has to create repititive triggers by hand. if he had access to TrigEdit, he could create triggers approximately 3 times as fast(at least). while that alone may not have been enough to complete the map in one month, he would have been more motivated to work more on the map and would have finished it before he would have ended up in WOWland(which he may never emerge from...)

No.


Yup.


Okay.


You read this thread, yet you failed to read the hundreds of posts pertaining to the fact that I use a Mac and SCM Draft does not work on Macs? That's where all my helpers were supposed to come in. Ironically everyone who helps me ends up quitting because this map is a female dog to make.


What.


Oh yeah, I may be getting a new MacBook soon. Therefore I can install Windows and SCM Draft. But this wouldn't be for another few weeks.

it was about a year ago since i briefed this topic. is there really that much to trigger? so im gesin u got all the standard rules; buying/selling, landing on property, dice system, bidding, houses, mortgaging, deals between players, community/chance cards. i admit, that is alot of work, but over a year's worth? maybe theres more to it than most people percieve? anyway, a good map takes time. and i think that once you release this map, it will become very popular, and probably one of the best, or THE best map starcraft has ever seen. please, keep up the hard work, it'll be worth it in the end.

Hopefuly this map is finished and released before I decide to quit sc

I dont think that Devlin's version will be.

Thanks. As I've said many times before, it is taking so long because I have a life away from SC. I'm 19, I have a job where I work full-time, I have bills to pay, and I have many obligations I have to meet. I don't have the luxury of only worrying about school each day, as so many other map makers do, and therefore I barely ever have time to work on this. I joke in saying that I have only put about a month's worth of work into this map, but that is almost factual.


Unless you quit tomorrow, it will.


Faith, boy. Faith!

I do have faith! I live around monopoly and I will forever use your version (because I know it's professional), but thats when it comes out.

how do you get the minimap to look like that picture mapper or something?

Nope. I did it by hand in StarForge on a friend's PC.

Wait, you're playing WoW now? How awful. And I feel like making a bet for the heck of it. I'll bet you 1 mineral that you won't finish this before SC2 is released.

You can only bet up to the minimum of 10. No bet now.

But seriously, how far is this from being completed, sorry didnt look at first post.

I'll take that bet.


I'm not sure. Fritfrat has disappeared with the most recent version of this map. I theoretically only need to do mortgages, chance cards, and community chest cards. But then again, that's assuming he copied all the property triggers. Its about 40 to 50% done, I'd say.

Ok... I didn't take the time to read all the 40 pages (logical) but I have some questions :
- Can I be part of the beta-testers?
- You're planning to finish that map in about how many month?
- Is your first message of this topic up to date?
There... good day

1. There is no set list of beta testers. When the time comes, I'll show an alpha version to friends of mine, but then I'll release a public beta version for anyone to test and report bugs.

2. Originally I was going to make this in about two months. Now, after a year, I have no idea.

3. As far as I can tell. Perhaps the "Percent Complete" is a bit off.


UPDATE:
So as it turns out, there was a huge miscommunication between Fritfrat and I. He told me he actually made no significant changes before he went on vacation, and I assumed he was still working on it. Long story short, he has offered to work on the triggers now and I left it up to him to decide if he wants to or not. If he doesn't, I'll work on this map like crazy to get it finished ASAP.

I 100% agree on that i will bet 1 mineral that he wont before sc 2 aswell.

Sweet, looks like I'm gonna win 2 minerals.

I'm going to actually start working on it now. I'll probably get the version back to devlin within a week or so, with all the non-house and non-hotel property triggers done.

Yay! In that case I'll split the 2 mineral winnings with ya.

You guys got some competition now you should get to work and finish it

Hey, I add +2 minerals in the pot! To encourage!
Also... What is SC2? What's gonna be new? Is it the famous Ghost?

Devlin, if you need some moral support, I can come over and massage your shoulders as you work on the map. Maybe your suicidal azn friend can come over too
