NEW English PICTURE GUIDE and wDetector 3.24 download!

Thanks DyS-
!

+ Show Spoiler [view old LaZeRKiD45 guide] +


hi this is my first tl thread, don't know if this topic is already out there but ill post anyways. I only know how to do this for windows 7 and vista, i'm sure its not hard to figure out on xp tho, this requires NO downloads other then wLauncher itself and takes about 5 minutes. Get wLauncher here Here

You can use wLauncher like chaos launcher to play in #LL games but it doesn't activate the wDetector portion of the launcher unless you type "I am Korean" in the game lobby only in Korean text.

So here is how you activate the antihack feature of wLauncher:

First we need to change the our language settings and system locale to Korean so go to start button then type "change keyboard" option if your on windows 7 or 8, if your using xp go to control panel.
[image loading]

Find the tab "keyboards and languages" and click on change keyboards
[image loading]

Now add all of the Korean languages make sure you check off Microsoft IME
[image loading]

Next click the language bar tab, click docked in the task bar, you will need to use the Show language bar later on
[image loading]

Tab back to the Region and Language tab and change your system locale to korean, you will need to reboot after this.
[image loading]

once rebooted open up wDetector after installed, your text on the launcher should have changed from ???? symbols to korean text, make sure you're language bar is minimized, if its "on top" like in this photo, you will get a connection error
[image loading]

The wdetector text should be at the top if you launched it correctly
[image loading]


once online, alt tab to your desktop and click the KO on your taskbar, click Show the language bar, then tab back to starcraft and it should appear on top of your screen like so:
[image loading]

you want to select the Korean tab and check off Microsoft IME
[image loading]

Now click the icon with the "A" and this will turn your text to korean
[image loading]

Now create a game. make sure your text is on korean, and type sksms gksrnrdls, this is how it appears for me
[image loading]

after typed, press enter and wDetector should be on
[image loading]

the launcher will display hackers within the first 5 seconds of the game and you can press * on your numpad to display them publicly in game



respond if you have any questions

lol.

Thanks for this, I finally got this fixed last night, I am on windows 8 , change ALL of my settings to korean, and before all I ever had to do was hit ctrl on right side of keyboard, but now it seems I am not able to switch from English to Korean text at all anymore, I have to be in windowed mode and click the " A " to hangul letters then it will let me speak in korean on browser, other programs, but not when im in broodwar full screened or even fullscreen windowed mode...anyone know how to resolve this issue?

Really? I thought wDetector auto activates itself? It always showed some text ingame and in lobby about wDetector.
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

nope you can launch it and use it like chaos without activating it. but once you type sksms gksrnrdls in korean while in the lobby it will activate it fully.

Nice thread! Thanks for taking the time to help others, though I think there's a shortcut to switch between Korean/ English. I use alt+shift and then the right alt key to shift between languages, not sure if this works for other people as well, just trying to help

There is nothing at mz bar where I can switch A with an korean letter.
When it is on the desktop, there is only KO for korean and nothing right next to it.

Edit>
I can see the korean letters in the cannel, but there isnt the option
to change A to a korean letter like on your last pic.

Once you login to your bnet account, alt tab to your desktop and click the KO, you should be able to click show language bar, which will put it ontop of your screen allowing you to change your language to Korean on starcraft

i heard this is much harder and worse on XP, because you can only do that if you change the whole windows to korean. anyone confirm?

Broodwar only shows the simplified version of the language bar on xp.

But you can do as Jemah suggests: Use right alt to toggle.

Um... That has to do with the fact that you don't have ALL settings to korean I believe, change every single setting to Korean in the languages tab, and then try again.

my text comes like that too up in the game and lobby. first turn your korean text on before you make a game, then make a game lobby and type sksms gksrnrdls and it should work
