There are 3rd party programmes for it, but it's usually considered cheating. And yeah, I find o for overlord and m for muta pretty bad  On January 29 2012 23:25 Azera wrote: No music in this SC download?! Is there unit sounds though?? Yes. Iccup version lacks the music and the campaign, and that's all as far as I know. No unit sounds would make it pretty hard to play imho/ | ||

Anyone knows how to fix this? I'm using a Logitech G15 keyboard (Azerty) if that is relevant. Thanks in advance. As it's an azerty keyboard, numbers are up, you have to play with caps lock. Annoying stuff.

My advice would be to pick one (zvp for instance, protoss are pretty common on iccup, and it's the more macro oriented I guess) and to train only this one at the beginning. In this case read Liquipedia and use 3 hatch spire into 5 hatch hydra I guess, it's a bit outdated but it will give you a good feel for the match-up. Well, good luck adpating to the numerous one base build you'll encounter at D level though. | ||

As far as I know, there is no solution. I simply got used to playing like that. | ||

That way I play in full screen (on my widescreen monitor) in a 4:3 aspect ratio.. | ||

It might be different for different video cards... but a quick google search should have it. On February 13 2012 11:26 aka600 wrote: My question is, do a good amount of people still play BW? I havent played it in years, so if i begin to play am i going to get stomped on right from the beginning? Simple answer: yes. There are plenty of people that still play and you will get rofl-stomped for a little while I just started back again about two months ago, went about 80 games before i felt like i was actually winning games (as opposed to my opponent losing them, i.e. one base cheese that fails) | ||

I play with acceleration off and 6/11 in windows and 1200 dpi on mouse. Do you just change the dpi and get a different sensitivity or is there some kinda chart that shows how much 1200 dpi is equally in bw resolution or something? It's okay if you play in windowmode but everything is so small then... | ||
