Mod note: It is likely that this is an internal testing version not intended to be public yet. Battle.net reportedly does not work after patching, which indicates that it's not yet "released". |

Are you stupid or what? How can you hurt anyone? Please stop exaggerating.

This BETA patch will be released officially once the Mac patch are ready. And the version would be 1.17.1

what about the response time of clicks ?? I hate muta micro-ing with high latency.
Latency changer
might now be obsolete
from testing it feels like networkmodedelay is now 2 (or #l2). pre 1.17 the default used to be 5.
you still need to use the lowlatency program to completely remove latency...which needs to be updated as it doesn't work with 1.17 (guess changed offsets)

Report: Blizzard is looking to remove unused game protocols such as Local Area Network (IPX), Modem, and Direct Cable Connection. They're logging the total and monthly amount of games we play on each protocol.
Additional research has been published at BNETDocs.org.

There are two protocols whose names start with "Local Area Network". Everyone uses Local Area Network (UDP).

Blizzard fixed a crash caused by watching a replay in which a player has chat too much during a paused game. Replay Fix plugin is no longer required.

I loved all the skeptics in this thread not listening to reason and then just disappearing into the wind :D
This patch is super duper awesome though!

As a network/security IT engineer, reading this thread was painful  It's crazy how people can talk out of their arse and throw words they don't understand.
Anyway as has already been said ftp.blizzard.com has been used since .... forever to host patches for all of blizzard games. But it's pretty clear they didn't intend people to download this version yet

Yes this will still work. What they are removing is IPX aka a protocol no one uses anymore. I don't think they will ever remove LAN from starcraft1

Stop embarassing yourself and learn how domains work.

I can't imagine many people use ipx, serial, or modem connections given that network interfaces are no longer optional like they were when starcraft came out. I wonder how well it did play on serial, my experience with AOE1 was that it worked alright but eventually went out of sync.
I'm probably the only one to notice but running starcraft on 9x/NT4/2000 will no longer be possible as they are using a quite a few newer APIs and it would appear it is no longer compiled with MSVC 6.0. Not that its really surprising just something I noticed.
