All the Good Times

[sandwich_bird]

Been playing SC1 again lately; mostly random UMS. Good times. They're all there if you need: https://gitlab.com/scmaps.net/starcr...ve/tree/master

I also revisited some of the UMS I made when I was 12. In particular, I made this huge RPG but god was the dialogue cringy! I think I'll work on it for fun when SC:R is released. Honestly, I loved UMS and making UMS more than real Starcraft. The editor in SC1 was just a perfect balance of simplicity and features. Never got into the SC2 or W3 editors sadly. Sure, they were more powerful but too complex I felt(to the point where I'd rather just make a real stand alone game).

Anyways, I'll definitely be playing a lot of Diplomacy/DBZ all sagas/Risk/etc when SC:R is released!

Haha, I just uploaded my old SC1 UMS DVD collection to my Google Drive. Was something like 19,500 maps. I wonder how it compares

This. All of this. I remember making some pretty major 'adjustments' to other common maps. I pretty much re-invented Smash TV, and made some major additions to the popular Chrono Trigger and DragonSpell RPGS. I even made some melees. Ahhh, good times. You nailed it on the simplicity/power ratio. StarCraft was the perfect ratio. So much creativity was going on in 1999 that is far beyond anything done in SC2 since its release. Sad, it has so much promise.

Annnnd somehow I have everybody else's maps but my own. Can't seem to find the DVD that had my old maps on it despite working hard to keep it for so long. Left it at my moms house and it was sucked into some kind of void (DAMNIT MOM!).

You ever venture onto Battle.net, let me know, I've been wanting to play some old school UMS.

Are you sure of the spelling? It's not in the huge map pack but check the links in the first post of : https://us.battle.net/forums/en/star...ic/20753716241

That name sounds familiar though

[Gradius]

I don't think a lot of people played it. It might also just be called "Invasion Earth RPG".

[TheEconomist]

Yes, I have three separate version of "Invasion Earth RPG" and a couple "Invasion Mars RPG"

Would you like me to send them to you? Better yet, we can play it together

[Gradius]

Fuck yes! ;o
