Well, SC2 isn't even probably close to being released (probably the point). Second... I wouldn't join, becuase it might be hard to get SCII in the first 24 hours, and I'd rather play it relax-fuly than be rushed and what not.

It will be not worldwide release I guess.. so..

And well.. it takes more than few weeks to get used to a world editor.

That's the fun of it though, everyone starts at the same level of not knowing. Besides, don't you kinda want to be one of the first people to have a map?

Yes yes, but what I mean, in 24 hours, you might not be able to make a trigger which gives player resources.

The release is so far, why are you even thinking about this?

Honestly I'd rather just play the game with my friends than rush to make a map under 24 hours.

On a side note, why is this becoming a Korean discussion...?

Anywho, I think that this would be too hard seeing as though you can't create an ultimate awesome game in just one day. No matter how awesome the sc2 editor is.

First week, not 24 hours. Be real..... Maybe even more than one week...

People wont even get it untill more than one day, and then they will probably spend a few days PLAYING it before they get to make a map. 24 hours after release is silly.. o.0


Personaly, why would anyone want to be first. Popular games like footmen frenzy were not made 24 hours after wc3 was released. Being first doesnt do much good, I would like to make a map a mounth after its out, by then there still wouldnt be too many maps out..

On a side note, there might be a few people who could\will do this, But they probably wont be at the helper and there wont be enough to have a very big contest... o.0

24 hours ; if you are going to buy SC2 then you are going to play it first, not going to check the world editor in which you may not understand 99% of things at first sight ; and more, you don't know what will be exactly used in it.

Oh c'mon, the interface isn't going to be in russian seriously. This won't be that terribly hard to do; and you'll basically monopolize the custom map area of bnet for the first bit of SC2's release

A good maze game would take maybe 3 hours
A start for an rpg might take 8 hours if you have the concept pre-planned.

It'd be really cool if anyone's interested in the challenge

I'd (and probably many others) would rather enjoy the first few moments of SC2 calmly and relaxed.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
