Bound Structure help

[FuzzzyLing]

Can someone tell me how to make a bound... i'm kinda a newb at making bounds and i do admit it...

If you have no idea how to make a bound, try to make one first. Find out that it is full of bugs and then get a decent bound off of Bnet that is not locked. Check out the triggers and learn from them. I wouldn't copy them though, because people generally don't like a map that has all of its triggers completely identical to another.

There are about 50 million bounds, so there is no set "way" to tell a person how to make a bound. You just gotta pull ideas out of your head and learn from other maps to be able to make a map.

Well, I have seen this question more then once. First, we are not going to waste 4 hours telling you in one or more posts how to make a bound. You might want to be more specific. What you want to know about it? If you have no map making experience, then God help you, because you're gonna need a lot more help then what a lot of people want to offer you.

If you do not have any map making experience tell us. Be more specific because you must know something about it, or else you're gonna have a hard time learning.

heh i'm think of explosions and such. i know how to make the other trigs but i cant seem to get the explosions

Okay, first make a location for each explosion. Name it so you have an idea of where it is. Make all the switches and stuff work so you can do this.

-Conditions-
Switch 'Level X' is set.
-Actions-
Create 1 archon at 'location 1' for player 8.
Kill all men for all players at location 1.
wait for xxx milliseconds.
Create 1 archon at 'location 2' for player 8.
Kill all men for all players at location 2.
wait for xxx milliseconds.
Preserve trigger.

do whatever you want with that. that's basically how you do it.

Since you've not been here long, it's only a warning, but next time, don't double post. Wait for someone else to post or use the "edit" option near the bottom of your post. Just a warning.

well ya i know.. but hey can you help me with another thing...
i have scx and how do i overlap the words for the game titles i tried using the overlapping marks but it doesnt seem to work and i tried opening maps that have them but they're all protected..

 

[-MatriX-]

Okay, this one's kinda of hard to explain.
First:
Select something you want to overlap.
Second:
Put the "O Back" tag first out of anything else.
Third:
Put a color tag after that.
Fourth:
Type the word/words you want.
Fifth:
experiment with the amount of spaces you use, start with 5.
Sixth:
After the spaces, make an "O front"
Seventh:
Choose a color tag.
Eighth:
Type the words.

This should work pretty good although you must experiment with the amount of spaces until you get it right. The more you put spaces in between the two words the closer they will be to eachother, but if you do too many spaces it will only display the "O back" area of the text.
Hope you understood, and be patient with it because it always takes a long time to get it right.

[tassadar920]

woah big convers between you too .

anyways, if you want help making a bound, id suggest searching for something like 'unprotected heaven bound' or something like that on, yahoo, google, or msn. You shoudl find an unprotected map that you will be able to look at (i use heaven bound as an example because it has some well done tricks and gives a lot of insight on bound making)
