Just shoot me a PM with your settings and I'll see what I can help you with.

What I need for now is mca version and the current settings that are enabled with it. Also just to confirm. You copy paste the dll into starcraft installation directory and disable directdraw emulation and gui fixes?

in short here are my settings:

Oh um.. no I don't believe I have ever copy and pasted anything into the StarCraft folder, I'll feel pretty stupid if that was all that had to be done, I don't remember that detail ever though!

I rly like the fact that BW tools are run by the community instead of blizzard. Blizzard always finds a way to tweak things for the worse, theyve been losing players in all of their 3 titles because of it. When the community does it, its a more genuine attitude towards improvement.

part of me wants to disagree with ICanFlyLow hard, but I really don't find anything to agree. This must be a first.

So Brood War grew because the community ran it?

I'd say it is where it is today because of the community developments over the years, yes.

most definitely. All the software tools, all the guides and threads. All those prople who have organized tours, acquired sponsors, recorded Pro gamer Vod's, casted the games. They all did this for the love of the game and still do. It's the most amazing thing for me personally about the foreign BW scene.
Broodwar for life!

The way I see it, part of the problem is that when Blizzard makes a change to one of its games/franchises, it is forced upon the gaming populace. When the community creates something, no one is forced to use it; thus, popular/in-demand advancements like various launchers and private servers become a mainstay, while other things that are more or less useless like Charlie Murphy's now-defunct torrent of YouTube VODs gets ignored and forgotten. I'm sure there have been many failed or underappreciated projects done by community members over the years, but the cream rose to the top. Blizzard doesn't have that luxury nor liberty.

Looks amazing really reminds me of playing Starbow. My one question is currently I can host ranked games on ICCup with the match up in the name will it be this way on ShieldBattery? From my experience if I host a 1v1 D-C you are going to get all Toss gets boring really quick.

Matchmaking will be automated. No picking and choosing matchups for ranked play.
