In The News / RIP Stan Lee« on: 12-11-2018 »![]() American writer and former president of Marvel Comics Stan Lee has died at the age of 95. In 1961, Lee and Jack Kirby created The Fantastic Four for Marvel Comics and went on to create titles including Spider-Man and The Incredible Hulk. Lee's wife, Joan, died in 2017 - also aged 95 - but he is survived by his daughter, JC Lee. Speaking to celebrity news website TMZ, JC said her father was "the greatest, most decent man". The legendary comic book author died at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles on Monday after a medical emergency, according to Variety magazine. In recent years, Lee had periodically suffered from illnesses, including a bout of pneumonia, US media reported. Bob Iger, chairman of the Walt Disney Company, which bought Marvel Comics for $4bn (£2.5bn) in 2009, called Lee "a super hero in his own right" in a statement. "The scale of his imagination was only exceeded by the size of his heart." https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-46186552 2
In The News / US government deems it legal to circumvent DRM to repair electronic devices« on: 26-10-2018 »Quote The Library of Congress and US Copyright Office outlined the new set of exemptions to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) in a "final rule" document (PDF) spanning 85 pages.

(SC2) Model & Texture Discussion/WIP / How to export models from a Starcraft 2 Map« on: 16-02-2018 »
This is a walk through guide is based on gerSlikey's guide at sc2mapster
This is so you can export models\assets from a map, many private maps feature assets you cannot obtain elsewhere and stifles the development of SC2, credit should still be directed towards the asset developers. What do I need for this tutorial? You have to download an MPQ Editor. In this case I used the first hit at Google.com: http://www.zezula.net/en/mpq/download.html Important: Choose the "MPQ Editor with listfiles ..." After downloading, you have to install it anywhere you want I downloaded the program, next? The files of the custom maps are hidden, but you can typically find them in these directories: Windows Vista / 7 / 10 C:\ ProgramData \ Blizzard Entertainment \ Battle.net \ Cache Windows XP C:\ Users \ YOUR PC USER \ AppData \ Local \ Blizzard Entertainment \ Battle.net \ Cache When you enter this folder you will get a shock at first, but don't worry, we have a solution. The files for which we search have the ending: *.s2ma Type this into you search and look through the hole Cache folder. All these files have a crypted filename and I don't know the algorithm. There are two possibilities. Method 1 Download the chosen map once and then look at the dates of the files. Compared the file time and choose the latest one. It looks like that. Method 2 Delete all files in folder: C:\ ProgramData \ Blizzard Entertainment \ StarCraft II \ Maps \ Cache Run Starcraft 2 and start a lobby with the map you wish to use, let it download. Exit the game. Now go back to this folder, search *.s2ma file and copy any of these files you found to a seperate directory. Since you are after models, typically the larger the .s2ma file, the more likely that it's the map you want to unpack, so start opening the maps until you find the resources you are looking for. Typically models are in: .m3 format and textures are located in assets/ - Right click on the desired content you want to export in the program and press "Extract" and save to a directory. Then load up whatever map you want to use and import the assets, make sure the folder structure is the same. 13
