There are a few things I need to clarify:
This is not my map. The original was made by someone I was never able to track down.
Neither is this map explicitly protected. It won't, however, open in the normal world editor. You will need WEU.
I decided to upload this despite the risk it would be taken down as plagarism because the author had all but disappeared and was not updating LOAP 2 gold beta 3. I chose to edit it myself in order to remove exploits that had become common knowledge and were interfering in nearly every game I played.
I take no credit for the ideas behind LOAP, or the content in LOAP 2 gold. I never added my name to the map in any form. I simply wanted a more stable version to play.
I only today read that this may no longer work in wc3 since patch 1.24 and I am really disappointed. This was one of my all time favourite maps.
