This is the last part in this series.

hey onetwo, i followed your video to the teeth. but for some reason when i go to load the map with the imported files it crashes and gives me the error e_errorIdNotFound

"Core: a required object could not be found"

ResourceFrame in the error report

@Brittx0x0x0 Well all I know is that you can't do what I did here exactly anymore. They changed the way you are supposed to import UILayouts. Read helral's long tutorial/post on sc2mapster.

Great Tutorial realy helped me out... Alot!

One thing i cant figure out is at 18:44 how do you remove that little black rectangle at the bottom right?

[OneTwoSC]

@TheSamAndTom Hmm thats the bnet button, I think you can move that using triggers?

I cant thank you enough for these tutorials, i would have never figured out all the UI changes before i got to frustrated lol. Really though this is by far the most informative and well put together/explained tutorial i have found on just about anything. Congratulations on this tutorial you deserve it.

@CANABALISTIC999 Thanks, now here's the $20 I said I'd give you... :D
