Just a reminder that the
StarEdit monthly challenge is halfway through...not enough participants. Come on! Join and push your skills to the limit!
More details can be foud
here.
Well, it would help if I knew how to make buildings but, meh....

If i make a 256x256 map and make a skyscraper as tall as the map would i win.
Well, I'm almost done with mine, so I should be able to enter the contest. I'm making sure it looks right while playing and the sprites don't crash SC.

About how many people are participating so far.
Two. Which is sad.
Go to the original post, attatch the file to your reply, and I shall download it.
well i would participate but i am really lazt sorry

Sure, I'll have it done by tomorrow I think.
2...really? This was pretty quick, even when trying to do something luxurious and cool. How could you be lazy enough to not make a building in a month? lol. Maps must take a very long time.
edit:
I assume you want it unprotected and stuff so you can see it in an editor? I dunno, but I'll do that.
I in the process of makeing an a sc map basiced on ->Alien breed Tower assult.
with minrals ->upgrades and gas for ->special abbliys

Although we do value your opinion and information please enter such things in relevant topics, or if none are available create a suitable one yourself and enter more details than what you've offered here and i'll keep it open.
Sorry not used to posting in the forums yet =].
still getting used to the setings and stuff.
The idea of the map, is like the game(if you not played it, i will do into some detail here).
Info
As a marine you been send to a resreach base in the (middle of nowere basicly).
so see why their has been no contract with the base. on getting to this base you were shot outta the air and crashed landed near the out side of the base. your only escape from this planet is the pods at the top of Centre tower.
Were you had to kill the alien Queen, who was very annoying and keep spawning aliens as fast as you could shot them =./
In the real game you could buy upgraded better weapons and stuff. To compansate for this i will add special abbillys into the map, think x.men mulitey abbilys(bad spelling). these will be basic on the type of marine you pick at the start. ie flamer/gunner/cloak etc. also as like in the real game every one can go their own way. not fixed, untill the end 3 levels which must all be togeter.

I hope spawning as fast as you can shoot won't ruin the game. I mean, if it's gonna be that fast, make it balanced enough, to where you can actually have a 50/50 chance... but in my opinion, Alien Queen... Spawning at light speed.. Aliens, period, is just a bit un-creative...
I'm interested in cxompeting, I will have my map in by the end of the month.

Oh I think I will view it in Single Player mode...different map editors gives different quality, which can make this challenge unfair.

Cool. I look forward for that.
My magical skyscraper....
I was going to do the twin petronas towers, but it didn't look right over the water.
Anyways, behold its magnificence.[/scsm] lol
Please summit it to the original post.
I will let you go this time, since I didn't make it very clear. But next time, summit it it to the original post.
File downloaded.
Hye Zerg Playing Dead that is pretty good

I like the dual towers over the water.
Shame about the lack of toilet facilities. But no i like that map a lot, not much to do with it, but simple design and it works.
k, sorry iamandragon.
I was thinking of doing some extra stuff using the Carriers as airships to transport stuff from mining facilities and stuff, but I decided that wouldn't add much to the towers. The reason it's two was I wanted it to be like the petronas twin towers, but I thought it would be cool to have it over water. For it too look right, I couldn't do both.
Anyways, simple but elegant.
And it advertises Blizzard.


Woah nice sky scrapers

Should I make not downloadable now since iamandragon said he has it?, or should I leave it for people to see....
