Protecting my map

[troyboy]

I am finished with my map, and i would like to protect it.

However it seems that the site has gone down and thus i cannot download it.

Would someone who already has the program be kind enough to protect it for me?

Greatly Appreciated, its in the attachment.

May I ask why you want to protect your map?

 

[Gtam]

Probaly to keep people from stealing it Or edit it

As if someone would do that.
Even if someone would want to do that, they would simply unprotect it.
Protecting maps only prevents new mappers from seeing your code. Which sucks.

lol most people who steal maps are gui-ers. So its pretty effective.

new map makers should read tutorials because if they open other peoples map they wont be creative

you can make a great map with using just what world editor has to offer, take me i have an mac so i can only use world editor but if i want something done like custom loading screen etc i just send it to a friend with a windows.

Alot of great maps are just with normal WE

 

[BlackDeath09]

yeah, you dont need to have custom skin custom triggers to make a lot of maps, and the ones that usually do have those people get annoyed with waiting 3 minutes to download it. back to topic there is no point in protecting your map unless its a masterpiece

 

[Gtam]

No ther ar none good maps that doesnt hav triggers in them.

 

[BlackDeath09]

?? obviously there are no bad maps that dont have triggers, the lowest amount of triggers you can have in a map is 4 and there subcategories which are the basic triggers for standard single play.
since you dont know what im talking about a Custom Script is JASS you do not need to use JASS for triggers that are done normally rather then using CUSTOM triggers. IE you do not need JASS to make a good map.
irrelevant and off topic

 

[Gtam]

Custom triger are self made. Ther is a difrence between jass and custom trigs. And of cource ther r a lot of great maps with GUI

 

[BlackDeath09]

yes most of mine are, only things i use that arent are AI scripts on occasion

 

[Gtam]

I only use GUI exept when i need to remove points or destroy groups but now with newgen all GUI

Ok i downloaded the Map Protector, but my computer wont let me open it.
I dont have winzip and am not going to buy it.

Ill have to get someone to protect it themselves, because i cant.
Willl get back to you guys once Im finished this version of the map.

By the way Exide im protecting it so that no1 takes my map and claims they made it.

Screw Winzip. Use WinRAR.

@SharkBait87: I'm hoping you read the forum rules. It states somewhere in there that it'd be greatly appreciated if you stay away from the chatspeak. I guess I can't force you, but reading your posts gives me headaches. You don't have to use proper grammar and everything, but at the very least could you please make an attempt to spell all of your words correctly? The time it takes to type "your" and "ur" REALLY isn't that much. Thanks. @_@
