Hmm... were these from a WarCraft 3 StarCraft mod?

Anybody know if that one was ever completed or any good?

When you make the post, there is a button above the text field that says "upload image". Click that one.

Eww... No offense but... that looks scary crappy! Just look at those barracks. And minimap looks so dull, no pattern there. And you ask for voting - hell NO. I saw some similar mods in http://www.moddb.com maybe you need seek it there.

I dont know if I would consider that better looking. But it definitely looks like a WC3 mod. That being said, WC3 would not work well for SC:BW. There are simply some abilities which could not be made to work like in SC.

3d makes it less consistent to micro. It's just not practical for mechanics, especially if it takes some really precise micro (muta micro for instance).

Yup it's a WC3 mod. Might be fun to try out maybe at lan for lols, but other than that, the mechanics will suffer greatly.

PS. I like the original graphics better

3d sucks big time. 2d grafics are better in any possible way for rts. And btw BW grafics are awesome.
Less is more.

every wc3 player will beg to differ.

i actually think this looks decent, pretty clean (no random graphical clusterfuck) and quite faithful to the original sprites.

I prefer the original. It is just a lot better than this 3D crap. I don't know why people think BW graphics are bad. You can see everything and can distinguish between every unit and spell. Unlike WC3 or SC2 (at least for me).

This is not worth it, if you want 3D graphics for BW play the SC2 Mod, however I'd like to see an HD remake of broodwar, sort of like what Microsoft did with Age of Empire 2

It should be possible to recreate *most* abilities in WC3, but things like Carriers can not be recreated faithfully. Other then that I can not think of any ability that would be impossible. (Just maybe really really difficult)
