Baksteen beat me to it (i had to create an account first ), you need to rename each file, we need a script that does this automatically
SuperVogel's method isnt working here (the one with the new realms file), I have the EU version of the game

I wrote a batch file for doing this.

ren %1 sc2-patch.mpq
"Blizzard Updater"
del sc2-patch.mpq


Save that into notepad and save the file as patcher.bat, then drag the patches in order onto the batch file. Make sure the patches and the bat file are in the support folder when doing the process.

Even after patching I can't run sc2 suctom maps. It gets to the loading screen but the progress bar never updates. It does this even when I open and test custom maps with the galaxy editor. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling/repatching about 3 times now and I'm about to give up. I even delete my cache between installs. When I just open up the blizzard sc2 launcher I get this small logo that just sits on my desktop forever until I ctrl alt del. None of the custom launchers work either. Really frustrating, makes me want phase 2 even more.

Baksteen's suggestion just launches the game and attempts to patch via the EU servers instead of the US servers (US ones are down and aren't patching). Basically you right click the realmlist.stf file and save it to the support folder, then launch SC2. It will patch the normal way via the EU servers. However, each time it does this, it rewrites the realmlist.stf file as US, so after each patch you have to re-save the EU one.

It's weird because for me it isn't loading the patcher at all, it just straight proceeds into loading the unpatched sc2.exe. And i think i am doing it right:

- I got a clean install
- I put the realmlist.stf file into the support folder (C:\program files\SC2 beta\Support)
- I run the starcraft2.exe from my desktop

Maybe that only works with the US client or something?

Forget the patches, where can I download the game itself? (I just formatted today)


Go to the battle.net site and log in, assuming you were a part of the phase 1 beta


Can't download them from there.

For those of you having it freeze on you while loading after having it patched, it's the Battle.net.MPQ (in your Battle.net folder) from patch 13 that breaks it. Just delete it/move it somewhere else and it should be fine. =)

It worked. OMG. I manually patched/reinstalled over and over trying to get this to work and you just solved the problem. Thanks, I was going crazy waiting for phase 2 without the ability to play custom maps. Now I can lay off persona 4.

Once again it's Bnet 2.0 causing problems.

But guys isn't the second phase supposed to come with ONE entirely new patch? So all the old ones are obsolete, right? This should also mean that we don't gain anything from patching now, unless we want to play custom games at least...?

I also have trouble with this, how do I know what version I have now? I was away for end of bete and don't know what my latest patch was (maybe 12).

But I can load YABOT right now, is that possible without having the latest version of teh beta client installed?

Pretty much. Custom games and replays.
