[...] Far too often these open source reimplementations just have no concern for staying faithful to the original. BW is the one game that requires it the most.


Luckily, in this case faithful reproduction is not a nice-to-have but an absolute necessity due to how replays are stored and replayed (the game is played out, just reading actions from the replay file instead of the player input).

This makes the retention test rather easy: process a set of replays and check if the outcome is exactly the same.

You have the 1.16.1 patch of course?
Did you install Brood War from CD, download it from Blizzard, or obtain it from somewhere else?

MPQ files are stored in the Mo'PaQ format, which allows for several compression algorithms (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPQ#Compression).
Seems like something went wrong during decompression of one of the MPQ files, which could indicate a non-standard compression.

Cool project. Impressive that you've gotten that far with compatibility already.

Fan-made "HD" graphics remakes have a tendency to look terrible, but I have to say that the Valkyrie looks promising.

How about optional pixel art scaling algorithms? I'm not a huge fan of them but I could see myself preferring those over redone versions that don't really match the originals.

That is a possibility that we certainly should explore for the tilesets.

As for the units, if you look at the comparison image, how could you not want the new version? :D

The potential graphical issue with scaling up original units is that they get a cartoon-style look, almost in a Carbot style.
The potential legal issue is that we would not be allowed to distribute up-scaled graphics that are directly based on copyright-protected material.

Update: the production tab can now be dragged anywhere in the window.

PS: did I say production tab? Ah yes... press '1' during a replay to toggle (show/hide) the production tab.

PPS: wait.. are those zerg units in the production tab?? ;p
