News Batch #4 Boot Camp v1.1 Released - Starcraft 1.5 3D Conversion Maps Mod for Warcraft III

The original version of the 'Boot Camp' campaign map was release back in 2007 and was my first attempt at making a campaign map of Starcraft. The end result was a nicely converted map which followed the original demo map perfectly but after the map was released i knew i could do alot better and would be able to convert alot more of the map to look just like the original Starcraft maps.

So for the next 2 years i spent hours upon hours making skins for all kinds of borders, backgrounds and icons, you name it i converted it. Its amazing how many little things need to be converted in Warcraft III to make a Starcraft menu screen or score screen. But i wanted this new version to be perfect with little or no need for another update again. Along with all the skin creations the models got a once over as well. This resulted in better death animation and sound for the buildings and units within the map. Due to the new patches for Warcraft III: TFT i had to remove all the custom script coding and remove the Terran Liftoff ability which used some of that coding. But most of the original trigger systems are still there and working perfectly.

The map now stands at an amazing 12.40 megabytes in size, which is double the previous version 1.0 at 6 megabytes . This shows just how much more material i added to achieve a perfect Starcraft lookalike map.
