Google'd TL.net, nothing came up, so decided to post here, because it came to my attention that some people felt that getting used to playing in a faster speed could help with improvement on the game. (Feel free to move if this isn't the right section)



Step 1. Download Cheat Engine
+ Show Spoiler +
WILL NOT WORK ON BATTLE.NET UNLESS YOUR OPPONENT USES THE SAME xSPEED AS YOU.



Step 2.start starcraft

Step 3.attach the engine to starcraft.exe
on the cheatengine, tick "Enable Speedhack" and then put in whatever speed you want and then click "Set speed" (ignore the sleeptime)

Refer to pics for more help.

I have tried this method on LAN and Battle.net, but only tested this with my brother.
We both used the method mentioned above, and both used the same speed. *Worked*

This looks really cool! Does anybody have any stories about if t really helps mechanics, multitasking, and stuff like that?
Force staff is the best item in the game.

... There's more much reliable and more trustful sources and it's just an .scx file, not some program. -_-

Everyone probably has a different preference of how they practice, I am just providing another method of practice.

Hmm...
I play mostly on 3x it might be because of how long you've been playing.

Just reset the speed to 1.0 on cheatengine, set speed, and then set a faster speed again.

Cheat Engine is completely legit, though it depends on where you download it. If you aren't sure, upload it to virustotal.com

Could the "turning off" have anything to do with "sleeptime"? You said to ignore it but maybe this is relevant.

There are noticeable improvements(for me) I can say that.
I'm hesitant to say this, because i haven't played using this method a lot (barely have time for SC anymore), but it has helped me improve my APM, micro, multitasking in general.

I scroll so freaking far now. It's so hard to tell your SCV, "Build Depot here, go back to mine here."

By the way, does it have to increase by whole number increments?

I tried 1.5, and didn't really get anything.
