When i download an rpg map from the internet and open it with my campain editor it says a number of units (ex. 200 ) are invalid and would be deleted, why is this happening!?

You probably have a different editor than what was used to make the map. This usually happens since not all editors have the same capabilities.
What editor are you using?
This should be in Assistance.
there are other editors? I just use the standard starcraft campaign editor.
Go and download
StarCraft Extra Editor 2.5
SCMDraft 2
Starforge 2.1
ProEdit 1.4.1
Go now and download the best editors.
The SEN DLDB is offline right now so youre going to have to go to another site.
I suggest going to the (U) site first.
I agree with beerkeg on that one
it may also have to do with the fact that some units maybe were placed in water even though that some editors will just delete the units and they will just disappear in the game eventually

maybe this will clear up your confused head
ok thx guys but where do i go to download all the new stuff? AND talk slowly i'm really bad at this map stuff.
ya know whats funny......................in this website go to the downloads section

The units are either sprites or improperly placed. Download a new editor from the download section.
the downloads are OBVIOUSLY down right now, so are there any mirror sites I can download the new editors from?
Try going to all of the affiliates on the bottom of eevry SEN page.
another problem has occured, the map is fine on the campaign editor but when I actually play it it's all screwed up, any idea?

What do you mean screwed up, be more specific.
Does the map open at all?
Is something specific withing the map when you open it?
Does starcraft crash when you open it?
We can't help if we don't know more.
the map is missing A LOT of units and the triggers don't seem to work...
If you had improperly placed units that you put in an advanced editor than opened the map in staredit, most of those units would disseaper. Also keep in mind units for a player that isn't present will not appear. So if you play in single player, all the untits for other humans will not be there.
well the units are fine on the map but when I play it on broodwar it dissapears
P.S. can any one suggest me a good rpg map? (that's downloadable)
What units specifically, and for what players, Just post the map and I'll look. No one here's gonna steal it so don't worry about that.
well it's not really my map it's just a rpg map I downloaded on the web:
Well I played it and all the units appear fine.
really? what happens in the begginning?
after i destroyed the command center there was nothing else to do.
ADDITION: I downloaded everything beer keg told me to but it still doesn't work, the map is missing 3/4 of the stuff when I play it, what am I doing wrong? Show me what you do step by step and look at my map skill leve

.
I didn't kill the command center but just look at the map in an editor, there isn't anymore, so why would you expect more to happen.
I didn't look at the triggers so maybe they're supposed to create more units or something.
But I don't think so, I think you just think mroe units should be there.
no there were a lot of more stuff in the editor but there is like NOTHING when I actually play, what are you suppose to do in the begginning?
Ok when I looked at it in the editor there is a big center land with most of the untis and the command center, then a few things scattered around the edges, the most around the edges is some other base with zealots and dragoons and wraiths. The rest is water.
When I played it I waited ttill they gave me a civilian then I chose 2 units to use down at the bottom. Then i got cloud and started killing stuff.
Then I stopped and posted something a little while back saying that nothin was wrong with the map or somehting.
i didn't even see the broken down battle cruiser or any of the protosses. THere was nothing to do, and can you explain again how you got cloud?
I don't know what you did wrong, if you open a map it should always happen the same way, unless you got something strange in the map, but still.
At fisrt they killed the battlecruiser, then like I got a civilian and went on 2 beacons. I got 2 units and then they gave me cloud.
if the map has units placed invalidly on terrain for staredit (so units that woulkd work in SCXE, scmdraft, etc), staredit would remove them
