Guys, this debate is totally stupid.

In real games (by that i mean iccup ladder, tourney, etc) you aint gonna use ANY hacks
In other games it doesnt really matter if you use resolution hack or liveapm (or even maphack) as long as it makes you have a happier experience playing the game. err maybe not maphack, dont ban me plz.

i agree with this

I played about 20 games on east with it.. i love it!! but i felt like a cheater and hacker =((( i cant bring myself to use it anymore other then replays.. u can see Cloaked units running around they have a black color to them and u can see lurkers burrowed for only a short while, if u move ur screen around it fixes it! use at ur own risk!!

I don't have the time to read through 10 pages to see if someone already posted this, but
I found a bug
If you hit 'attack' and then click a spot on the minimap, the units don't go where you told them to. Often times they go a lot lower

Bugs I've encountered:

Attack-move on the minimap makes units go to a wrong location
centering the screen around a building/unit by double tapping a hotkey doesn't work properly
mineral and gas count is in the middle of the screen
text messages in the middle of the screen
when hovering above the Play/Pause button(and others) in replays, it shows labels in the middle of the screen

This is one of the greatest SC apps ever made, congrats to the author!

This REALLY has potential. I mean it.

A few things that annoy me though, is the blue info box at the bottom (hehe), but also a few things need to be centered. For example

messages like "not enough minerals"
the menu if you hit F10
the building/unit info box at the bottom
the vespene gas/mineral counter (well it needs to be on the right, not centered)
and perhaps the main menu

But everything else is DAMN AWESOME! I wonder if this falls under "cheating"

edit: okay I don't know if someone else mentioned this before but my SC is crashing if I click "exit mission" and i can't move the screen if the pc auto-centered it in the campaign... But these are just fine adjustments

The sounds played are centered around the top left of the screen. If your resolution is big enough, stuff that looks like it is happening in the middle of the screen can be totally silent because it's too far away from the top left, where all the sound is centered.

Would also love to see mineral counts at top right, as has been mentioned.

I suspect that the regular broodwar engine will only be taking the standard screen size in it's automatic saving of screenshots... But if you just paste the screen shot from the clipboard into MSPaint or something, I don't see any reason it wouldn't work.

EDIT: I tried it myself... just the prnt screen button doesn't work, but if you use Irfanview (free image viewing program) the hotkey for screen shots is ctrl + f11 and that works great.

Alright, I can get a screenshot but after I take the screenshot the colors come out funny.
EDIT: Alright, forced alt tab when I use irfanview seems to be the problem. Is there a way I can fix that?

I wonder if we're gonna see some hot battles suddenly zoom-out on OGN or MBC in the time coming.

haha, yeah. Before too long all commentators will play with a res of 1920x1200 and there will be a zoom button to allow them to zoom anywhere from 640x480 all the way out to 1920x1200 :D

Think of all the room they could have down there for the unit counting station! That would be awesome...
