Unable to query registry key value!
GAHH, but I installed the whole thing
Edit: Nvm I'm a man I can handle this
|
So lets see, by the time protoss and zerg come out starcraft 2 and its expansion will already be old.
|
Ugh wtf, mini iso doesnt work as the cd T_T
Anyone had any sucess with an iso?
|
What is the appeal of playing SC in wc3 style? Who would want to play this when sc2 is coming?
|
I prefer to wait for SC2 to come out and while I am waiting - I will stick to the old, good SC:BW   .

Downloading now

W00t, getting ~320 kbps from the torrent here

Downloading now but I have vista so I might be screwed according to them. T_T

why do you need sc and bw to play a war3 mod?

It's needed for the installation or something according to the FAQ.
|
Heh cool, SC with weather effects <3
I won't be trying it though, i don't even have wc3 and tft.
|
so anyone tried it? How was it?
|
Wow now I finally have a use for those WC3/TFT CDs.
|
can it be played online in some pirate server or something?
|
looks nice... good for testing mbs
|
annoying how it requires the original sc cd. im installing it right now. i think you can just multi play directly on battlenet, since its a tft mod?
|
I'm pretty sure you can play the mod on the official B.net server. It's just that if you play with people that don't have the mod, then you'll disconnect. This is the experience I have with StarCraft mods...
|
Oh damn then I can't play it since I don't have valid cd-key for wc3 ;(

So.... I guess this is where Hamachi will come in handy.

Oh I am sorry I was blind
And hamachi, very good point ^^

Indeed, let's try out some MBS/smart casting/auto mine :/
|
lol try laying a mine in an opponent's base and then click teh mine and make it attack your own vulture. (the mine goes off even when buildings are in range, it's pretty fun lol)
terrans have a suicide unit now
|
uhhhhh I installed it an when I run it....
TFT runs, as if it hasn't been modded

go to the path that you put in
there's a different exe for scr

|
|
Oh shit, MBS.
Well I don't want to play this anyways. The original SC:BW=God's work.

Playing it now... you CAN play it over bnet, they just don't recommend it. (I hope my key doesn't get banned or anything)
Some issues... minerals in mains run out super fast (3-5 minutes), you have to be really far away from a geyser.... and you can land your CC right beside minerals. Heh. But it's pretty fricken neat...
MBS is in, as in automine... if the game had a bit more functionality it'd be fun to mess around with these features. The game isn't as fluid as SC though.
edit:
Actually, MBS is in the TAB format... I highlight all my factories and I must hit tab in between each selection of 'v' or whatever for vultures... Can't just hit 4 V and make X amount of vultures, have to do tab v tab v tab v etc.
edit 2:
and adding a machine shop, the machine shop 'replaces' the factory when it comes to MBS... so you can't use it like that :/
edit 3: ( )
I was a bit wrong there... I had 6 factories, 2 had no machine shops, they had their own 'tab', so I had to hit tab to cycle through them. The other 4 with machine shops, however, hitting 'g' once made 4 goliaths.
Whew!
|
holy shit the video actually looks very promising. the only real critic i can give is that the animations for certain things are not at the correct speed. apart from that, it looks very true to form. excellent job on the models, weather effects, and mapping. just wow!
on a 2nd note, i thought "they" ditched the project a while ago? what happened..
|
SC is SC.. Although the graphics are quite good, i believe the whole concept will be ruined by inserting 3D graphics into it.

Same problem
|
We need to get some screenshots from this current version. Does the game look different from the last set that were released (because that felt somewhat disjoint).
*edit Nevermind saw video . looks decent
|
So... uhh... cliffnotes? Just how functional is this? Can it be played multiplayer, can it be played with AI? Maps?
|
It can be played multiplayer yes, terran only. And you can play vs. AI, but they suck ass.
|
It still has some serious flaws.
For example you can land the CC next to the minerals and suddenly you're playing FMP
Also 8+ workers can mine the same mineral patch.
It's fun though.

copyright issues.
thy extract the sc sounds right out of your sc installation, and to veryfiy that you still have a cd, they request it to be in your directory.
they want to prevent a shutdown from blizzard this way.
btw:
the demo is nice, but has some serious flaws.
the ressource system isn't finished (hence the 8+ workers per min patch possible)
the medics heal isn't responsive enough.
tank deploy animation leaves somewhat to be desired and for obvious reasons is running to fast.
the defmatrix has some display issues when cast upon flying units
and many more tiny things.
but overall its quite okay considering that it's not finished.
|
can someone put up a youtube vid of the game in action? i dont have tft and i have no clue where my wc3 cd is :D
|
you can build a cc right next to minerals
spidermines affect buildings and you can target your own units with them
lockdown has no animation
no yamato
no nuke
you can bug the scvs into mining from a geyser without a refinery
the distance from refinery to cc is too big
can't stack wraiths
those are the differences i can think of so far in addition to jacen's

Who the hell made that installer?
Because it's like the most horrendous piece of installer software I've seen in 7 years.
|
I don't know. The trailer looked badass (prob cuz of the Zerg), but that video ist just missing that ol Starcraft spark. It kind of felt dull, probably cuz the animations are that great (ie death animations). It has potential, but it needs the other races, pronto.
|
We can use this to experiment, so that we can have a precise and clear view of what starcraft 2 should be.

I agree 100%.
At first i thought the 3D graphics were awesome but i changed my mind now.
The 3D graphics may look good at first but SC is best as it is.
|
I prefer a lot of these graphics to sc2's. It seems like if these guys stopped trying to match SC1 they could make an awesome game.

If anybody is up for some games on this mod join JuNi+ // 1 @ Hamachi!~

what trailer?

Anyone wanna try it out over BNet to see if it works there? Psion. @ USEast.
|
you can also play as zerg (maybe protoss as well)
if you use random
|
nevermind, you can't play as toss
they just stay invisible and don't give off any power
they're also 3x3 big
|
Not to disrespect the people who created this mod......
The Zerg/Protoss look fugly as hell. Well, Guess they aren't done yet so the graphics should improve by the time the project is finalized.
By the way, does your mouse cursor feel different when you play this? Because my mouse cursor literally floats on the screen when I play WCIII; a problem I never have when playing SC, where the cursor moves fast, smoothly, and accurately.
|
not just the mouse cursor, but the whole game feels really clunky
|

Good to hear. I was really trying not to install WCIII and its expansion back into my computer and your word has just given merit to my resolution.
