Hello StarEdit.net Users!
My name is
Zwitch (if you haven't glanced over the poster's name yet
). I'm a Starcraft: Broodwar player and a rookie to mapmaking. I've played SC for about 3 or 4 years now.
I first began playing the single-player campaigns on SC before I had an internet connection. After beating the campaigns, I tried testing my creativity with the Campaign Editor and this is where I began to experiment and make campaigns with the basic StarEdit. Ever since I've been playing on Battle.net, I've always wondered how there were maps that used different player colors, how buildings could be stacked, and how people managed to make certain effects or instances in games based on just triggers. Well, my curiousity finally drove me (Thankfully I'm not a feline
) to go search for SC Editor information online.
I ran into a bunch of different places to download editors of different sorts, each with descriptions that contained technical words and jargon that I had me wondering what the editors actually did. I eventually came to this site and did some browsing, looking at the tips and information provided by this site's users. I was quite fascinated and amazed by all the information this site had to offer, and I wasn't even a member yet! Well, I finally decided to register and download StarEdit X-Tra v2.5. I'm looking forward to what this site has to offer for me. Expect to hear a lot of questions on map-making from me soon!
