Chaosplugin and LatencyChanger will be back soon. The other plugins will take some time.

it stopped starcraft and could be used for pausehack.

Only crap fixed. Again. They don't fix the pressing issues anymore.
Anyway. If you want hack-free games, now is the best and only time for that.
The skill of some players will drop mysteriously now.

Oh thank god they fixed that drop hack, I always encounter it when I play and it's annoying as hell. Didn't really know you could do it on purpose though, thought it was a bug.

some of you are so ungrateful it makes me sick.

Blizzard should just shut down battle.net and look forward to a future (and hopefully more grateful) audience.

no one patches games after 10 years. Blizzard does not owe you anything. Blizzard does not owe iccup anything.

They fix a drophack and provide better support for 3rd party leagues. How about you get on lazy-ass iccup creators to get the fucking move on updating their shit instead of complaining about blizzard still supporting their now-worthless game.

Yeah but you can't deny this is a pretty idiotic move on Blizzard's part. They fixed nothing and broke a hell of a lot of stuff.

Why didn't Blizz fix the latency with the release of BW? Same with the CPU issue. Why don't they ban cheaters, abusers, harassers when you email them the evidence? You just get an automated email saying they received it but can't say what they did? Then next week you see the same person again, still breaking Blizzard's rules which are bannable offenses according to Blizz.

Blizzard is totally out of touch with their fanbase. And that used to be their key to success. They have gotten too big to be able to do so. It's like with governments. Things like this prove this over and over again.

They did not fix drophack. They only fixed one method of pausehack. Pausehack with other methods probably still works and drophack can only be fixed by major changes to the networking code which will never happen.

hello lads, can someone be kind enough to upload their StarEdit.exe for me somewhere? My patch won't work because it doesn't "match the file checksum" and it points to my StarEdit.exe. I would reinstall, but my SC is from the digital download and I really don't want to dl all the 1+ GB again

The truth is this causes more harm than good since it doesn't fix anything important (I mean nothing is really broken) and we have to choose between iccup and bnet? (No i'm not smart enough to figure out how to somehow start it in the old version.)

That would be your graphics card. Best way to fix this is to restart your computer and get rid of some of the dust that builds up at your CPU's fan.

No offense but if U retire Zymastor, that makes U a reall faggot type of person.

Why stop making hax?? People depend on U man. U can't just throw all that away.

I know U'll do the right thing!! I have faith. Thanks in advance Zymastor.

Zynastor is God, AgentGod is right behind him...

Boo to the guy who insulted him!!

If this were a forum about science, would you diss Einstein? NO!
Why in this forum would you diss Zynastor....??

Hey Mac users, any way to get the game to run at full screen again? It loads in a little tiny window now.

To clarify: I don't want it to run in window mode, I want it to switch to 640x480 and run stretched.

Seriously though, wtf. This patch is more trouble than anything. I can't connect to battle.net (poor connection only, every time), and the iccup launcher doesn't work anymore, saying I should downgrade.

I'm running Windows XP, and it actually won't let me install the new patch. Everytime I start up Broodwar it just says I need to update to the newer patch. I press ok and it just restarts my Broodwar and the same message will come up.

I'm assuming from reading the rest of the thread that I'm going to have to re-install but if anyone else knows a quicker way to fix this error let a brother know. I'm all ears (well, in this case all eyes).

someone should totally start a petition:

"Dear Blizzard,

Many of us 10 year old fans are quite perturbed on this day. Despite your dedication and commitment to your community, you've caused me discomfort as you have forced me to get off my ass and search for the original disc 10 years ago - one that i've been playing for free ever since.

Please, in the future, could you stop supporting your games before the 10 year threshold. After making such a compelling game, my legs stopped working 3 years into my addiction.

For all the people who are having problems updating through BNET and don't want to reinstall try: Monipatch 1.15.3. It's only 2Mb.


I agree. I tried updating through through BNET on XP, and bnupdate.exe fails to load, and then crashed on Vista.

But it is Blizzard's fault to cause so much trouble to the players with a patch that really doesnt solve anything important.
