I wonder how much of the input lag / mouse feel / muta control stuff is due to the transition from DirectX to OpenGL.
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.
The mac port was rather poorly done from a performance perspective. Meaning: Not totally smooth running on a PowerMac 8600/250 (a fairly high end computer back in the day), and still somewhat sluggish on an 867 MHz G4. Although the latter was running OSX, so maybe there was some kind of emulation going on.

Hi,
It seems that the 1.18.6 PTR is going well and lots of promising news even in the Korean community.
With that being said, I still haven't seen any fixes for when FullScreen will work... are they waiting until SCR? I mean, right now, people with an nVidia card can make it work (e.g. Flash does that). People with Radeon's cant.
And since I have a Radeon, I do Window Full Screen -- which to be honest, is fine. I like it. But I just hate that it's "Dark" ... it doesn't feel anywhere nearly as bright as 1.16.1. or even full screen mode. And you can't adjust the brightness setting either, it's greyed out. Does anyone know if they're fixing this or it's in the pipeline?

Is the PTR up for all upcoming patches beforehand? And what are the changes for 1.18.6?

Has anyone heard any news about the mouse blocking keyboard input? Sometimes I read the Blizzard updates and can't tell what they actually changed..

I didn't see this in the Suggestions or fixes, but I would like them to incorporate some sort of Lan Latency for battle.net. Maybe something like a updated version of a application like Chaos Launcher. I would love to be able to play in battle.net in Lan latency. The server delay is pretty anti-fun for me, especially since I've been spoiled with lan latency.
Even surrounding a zealot with zerglings or Muta Micro feels really sluggish and I don't have nearly as much control over my units as in lan latency.
Anyway, these are my 2 cents, as a hardcore brood war fan.

Has anyone actually reported this on their forums and topics?!

It isn't exactly Lan latency in my opinion. Though, it's a lot better than it was before, but it still feels too sluggish to be Lan Latency.
