I'm glad you figured out what was wrong with it, but I wonder how this got through their qa...

thx for the explanation.
this is my 3rd semester studying c++, i am making (lame) games with SDL, so i am interested in this stuff where is the good places in the game loop to put delays.
i have learnt some microcontroller programming meanwhile so I can understand some part of the assembly

i will check out this ollydbg stuff, I haven't heard about it yet but sounds great
And all is illuminated.

I'm sure they are very aware of the problem - if KeSPA aren't using 1.16 they surely have some contacts there to figure out why.
No the petition is for blizzard to hire you roflroflrofl

1.16 reminds me of MTGO. If anyone here has ever played that, for most of its now 5+ yrs of existance (wow, it's been a long time), practically every programmy friend I had stated how they could fix some of the ridiculously badly coded and user-UNfriendly design flaws in a matter of hours.. but yet, the billion dollar company sitting on their cash cow that creates money out of thin air with little to no effort involved, they can't do basic crap to improve things.

I just don't get it.
I used to run SC2GG, if you remember that. Come to NHFFA discord. It's where a bunch of old players who all suck at BW hang out, as well as people who like to play FFAs for some reason. https://discord.com/invite/kWNQvnd

So... blizzard tried to fix the cpu hog problem by trying to sleep critical code sections? lol?

is it just me or do people get the feeling that who ever wrote the original sc code must have left blizzard without telling everyone.

I'm pretty sure whoever programmed that part of the patch jsut rolled some dice to pick the sleeping time. That's how all the good programmers do it, anyhow

Also, the reason its probably taking so long for 1.16.1 is that they are actually putting it through its QA paces this time, unlike last time Can't release two crappy patches in a row (or can they?)
Can you jam with the console cowboys in cyberspace?

I'm pretty sure they are trying to kill off the SC community before SC2 comes out.

random interns doing the patches now huh


Yeah I'd guess none of their real programmers want to spend time working on starcraft when they could be working on starcraft 2 or diablo 3, so they just put their interns at work.

Definantly some intern who made that patch, i really doubt they have ANY qualified programmers working on starcraft:BW atm. So until this intern/Dustin browders son finds a solution we're stuck on the stable patch ^^

R1CH is a living legend btw.

Wow I liked reading this. I also am a bw user that randomly just joins a pubbie but since 1.16 I probably only gamed about 2 games and didn't know if I just sucked now and should quit playing or lots of pubbies gotten better then me. This explains alot....

Oh but I still suck at swallowing...So im fine.
