By that I mean that if you click somewhere while using a shortcut (such as producing a unit) the shortcut input seems not to be processed. I realised while having a lot of gateways in late game where you click each and type z (for zealot, it s an example) in each one. Several gates didnt produce anything and I am sure I clicked on every single one of them. Anybody else has this issue? | ||

This transition feels longer than it should be. I recorded it, from the moment I click on Join and the moment the list is displayed it takes 1:14 second. If I had to guess I'd say something around 0:40 second would feel correct. | ||

Iccup has much better system than fish for ladder. I mean website, stats etc. Without that 1.18 will be failure. ShielBattery will be another alternative for foreigners. Everything about it is amazing, just needs matchmaking. | ||

Gameplay-wise it feels really good, lat is good and mouse speed is perfect. Just needs ladder, i think that'll happen this month or next month at the latest (just speculation on my part, i dont actually know). | ||

I have to uninstall/install bw every time I want to switch from b.net servers to iccup!?... Install 1.16.1 in a separate folder | ||

On that note, since DirectX was always a Windows proprietary API, what did the original Starcraft for Mac software use for graphics rendering? Was the responsiveness different then compared to the Windows version? Those are things I'd be curious about if I were in QA. | ||

Was the responsiveness different then compared to the Windows version? Those are things I'd be curious about if I were in QA. That's probably impossible to compare given that Macs have such different handling of mouse input (and don't e.g. let you turn off their acceleration). I have the numbers for input latency (measured using keyboard input, but mouse input is very likely similar) on 1.16 using W-Mode, ShieldBattery DirectX, and ShieldBattery OpenGL. GL tends to be about a frame slower than DirectX, but W-Mode is consistently slower than both. So if people didn't complain about that, I'm not sure why they'd complain about something purely from a rendering backend change. (Note that latencies are basically identical for either mode, and nearly instant, if you flip to Classic mode instead of Aero, but I don't believe that's something you can do in Windows 10+ [I measured in Windows 7]). It seems far more likely that Blizzard changed the interaction of input polling with rendering with their changes, and didn't properly account for something, leading both to the lost input bug and increased input latency. | ||

Yea and this is not very hard to do. I suggest downloading the monikon version of scbw from mca's website, then when it asks to create a file destination, name it something different like "...program_files(x86)/desktop/ICCupBW" or something like that. Then whenever you play ICCup through mcalauncher it will use this version of BW, which is 1.16, as opposed to blizzard's 1.18 version which has its files updated every time bnet has Ann update. I've already helped somebody set this up, and I've done it myself. You should therefore have 2 versions of BW on your computer so you can play on both. | ||
