yeah i went into game and did it as fast as possible and a few times it didnt go through, so yeah, ive been delaying my clicks

i still wont use this though, it's modding the game and should be considered cheating.


Regarding whether or not this is considered cheating... is still pretty up in the air. But it does not "at least directly" mod the game. In a way it mods your mouse to selectively perform as well as (or better than) a very responsive (click-wise) mouse.

Reminds me a bit of changing your usb mouse polling frequency to gain an advantage in FPS games.

I'd really classify this as a "hardware" hack, and people comparing this to buying a new monitor or a gaming keyboard are not wrong.

I used AutoHotkey when I play DotA. It really helps out when using items (instead of clicking or using numpad). I just bound my thumb buttons on my mouse (Logitech G5) to be numpad 7 and 8 and place my usable items to be there.

However, I do not use AutoHotkey for Starcraft.

I don't really consider using AutoHotkey a hack or a cheat but I can understand how it can be unfair in game play. Having those extra few buttons allow players to get more control groups. (For example, if I usually use 1 2 3 4 for units, with AutoHotkey I can easily get two more with my 7 and 8 bindings.) Overall, I have mixed feelings about this though, since I don't see it as a hack or cheat. You are just taking advantage of what is available.

It is definitely cheating, and should be banned on ladders. Still it's a good find and I hope Blizzard will incorporate this into the next patch.

how is this cheating when it's simulating hardware? old non-gaming mice behave this way (according to his post on the 2nd page) so using that hardware gives you the same "unfair advantage" which explains why all pro gamers use piece of shit mice

it's no different than me using a different mouse to play

I agree its still helping a player in someway while the opponent has no such help = unfair= cheating

Is there any way I can stop my mouse registering a double click if the clicks are too fast? It's bugged recently and become almost impossible to single click. When I try to single I double and it means I keep stopping probes from mining.

If this is happening regardless of what you're doing, the mouse itself is broken. Get a new mouse.
I had that happen to me a few months ago. It sucked.

Sigh. I wish this can be legalized for gameplay, without it being considered a "cheat" or a "hack" so that everyone can equally have this feature... It really is helpful and it's not going to change the skill differences of the players if everyone uses it -_-

Why would someone name their thread "This is a hack" after the shitstorm caused by the iccup hacker's list thread and after a forum veteran like clazziquai was banned?

This is way different from using maphacks or something. It's just improving on the efficiency of the game. It's more like buying more ram, rather than downloading oblivion or something. It helps you mechanistically, rather than giving you some kind of unfair advantage.

give me a fucking break.

If this is cheating so is having a nice mouse with awesome drivers and a great keyboard.

So is this banned by iCCup, i would like to test this out but dont wish to be banned. Also, how would I actually apply this? Maybe a guide is in order?

Also, Manifesto sowies for the language in my other post. That kid was just really pissing me off and most people who think like he does do as well... Ill try to avoid responding to posts like that.

Well... I can release an executable that you can just run via double-click. I don't recommend using it though, because I tagged it with an identifiable signature on bwchart.

Come now kiddo, dont think that cant be fixed ^^ as im sure someone is already finding a way.
Anyway, is this bug free now or is it still in the development stage?
