I think Phoenix was referring to the map name, not the filename. Try naming the file &&&&& and then hosting it. I can't because my editor wont let me put & in the name, as I said earlier.

if you save the map, then change the map name manually, by clicking it, then clicking it again, then change the name. Or you could do (cmd+i) on the map file, and change it there. either way works. to change.. but You can't play a game with & in the "Filename"

I think people just stopped caring.

And I know how to manually change the name to add a & to it, but not only can I not play those maps but I also can't open them in StarFire or Emerald.

If my post was a response to you (Matt), then that would kind of prove I've not ignoring you (Matt). Hell, my first statement was an obvious response to your last addition...

They all open up fine in my editor on my Mac. So its not a Mac problem. Maybe its just your computer specifically? I'm not sure why that would happen to you, though.

everytime i install starcraft, upgrd to brood war, and dl the new patch, the maps are protected.

Report, edit, etc...Posted by DevliN on 2006-09-13 at 18:06:42

But they're unprotected before the patch? That's strange. They're perfectly fine on my computer, even after I downloaded the newest patch.

well. it says its not a valid starcraft file or something.. but i can still play them.. O.o

This is the time when OSMAP is pretty handy....

Unprotect the map, take out anything that is screwing the mpa up, and re-protect it and host it on SC.

W00tness.

Players above 12 might change their effects on every new patch. If you use them you're acepting the risks. If you want to know why just search 'buffer overflow' on google.
The '&' thing, just email blizzard telling them what happens and it'll be fixed for the next patch.

as i said. im on a mac. and these maps were never protected before.. so no1 protected them.. but after the patch they are protected.. how can this be?

Report, edit, etc...Posted by Clokr_ on 2006-09-17 at 05:57:06

My suggestion is: if you think that it is a patch problem, ask blizzard. Email them to the technical support email adress or go to the tech support channel on battle.net.

I dont think its a patch problem...that is kinda odd that they would suddenly come protected...which editor were you opening with this map(s) before the patch. Then did you use the same map editor to open it after the patch?

BS, they open just fine in staredit.

Aww freak if i would know it i would rename files instead of deleting all my D&D maps

Now i can't dl em anymore, and i never find any in the DLDB

AWWW DANG!

Edit: Oh ya, since thats a 1.14 problem thread, i guess i can ask this: Uhhh, i eared that given colors in the editors dont work anymore, can i find any elsewhere or are all the maps condemned to be in blue?!?

Report, edit, etc...Posted by O)FaRTy1billion on 2006-09-24 at 18:10:16

The colors in editors still work... There was just a bunch more added.

Report, edit, etc...Posted by Mp)Dungeon-Master on 2006-09-25 at 11:49:14

Uhhh false, they really dont work anymore in the games... i tested it and huh... its not working, all is at the custom color...

Report, edit, etc...Posted by Xx.Doom.xX on 2006-09-25 at 15:53:34

Actually, colors work on units in the game. Forces = Disabled. There are still colors in title names, but no more overlaps or people will not be able to join.

Colors still work in editors! more were added! Check out the sticky thread in the Map-making assistance forum.

I dont wanna know how many times i have to say this to people.
