One question though, how do these 'mod files' work? Basically what I need to know is, will it affect my install/normalgame in any way? | ||

Nice little side benefit(?) is that you don't have to logon to battle.net when loading these maps. Might be nice for dirty thieving pirates. | ||

Do you think you'll go on to make all of the campaigns from BW once this project is finished? I really hope so, because so far I've enjoyed this more than the main SC2 campaign by a longshot. | ||

Edit: WOW. The production values on this are surprisingly solid. Voiceover, music and scripting are intact, and they even have those classic briefing segments. | ||

Like the 3rd to last one I think (first time you use Duke), you're instantly supply blocked, the control tower left over is bugged, and your CC is far from optimal on the mineral placements. It's nostalgic, though. =) | ||

I really hope this turns into an iterated project, where people take what these guys have begun and add in polish, map tweaks, balance, new models, cinematics etc and in 3 years or so we have something almost as good as the new blizz stuff visual/gameplay wise As an afterthought, is anyone else blown away at the contrast of amazing narrative/storytelling + kind of mediocre gameplay design in the mod campaign to amazing gameplay design + kind of mediocre narrative in sc2? Having them both in the same engine really sets it off for me. | ||

I noticed the characters' portrait doesn't have she "speaking" movements during cinematics. Is it only on my computer, or is there a technical reason for this. Awesome job, looking forward to see The Fall! | ||

Scourges cost no minerals or gas at all. A pair of them only requires supply. Goliath Range doesnt actually increase the attack range. Though thats just from the look. Production quality is very high, really good remake thus far. And I love the old siege tank sound, so much more ROAR :> | ||

There are little things like portraits not animating, etc, but man swarming with 1 supply Hydras is nostalgic! Correction: 1 supply Hydras that are actually good!! Kind of wish the difficulty was more consistent though. I went from just cruising through the mission before Eye for and Eye into 'wtf is this' difficulty imo. Weird progression. Its like how third-to-last in the Terran campaign was harder than the last one. -_- | ||

However I have a few criticisms about the retro-ness of the units. Part of me would prefer to just play with the modern starcraft 2 stats on the units. For example the firebats could be two supply and beefy etc. Also, it is annoying that you can't sink depots or do other fun things that starcraft 2 added. Since it is pretty much impossible to reproduce the damage/armor system of the original and you are adding things like medics to the entire campaign retrofitting everything half-way does not seem worth it. So to sum up, I think it would be more fun to play if it adapted the original campaign levels to SC2 gameplay rather than trying to frankenstein it into SC1. | ||

I do like the difficulty, demanding you to be very cost effective with your units and you can't just go mass marines and win like in the original version. Granted, I wish there was better consistency but there's only so much you can do with the game. Also, all range upgrades for Terran does not work at all. +1 Range for Terran gives Combat Shields instead, and Goliaths +3 Range doesn't work either. Valkyries also attack Wraiths regardless if they're cloaked or not. Also, music turns off if you restart a mission or continue to the next mission, though this problem goes away after mission 4. | ||

Only downside is, why do the portraits keep their mouths shut while talking? And also, was it not possible to implement the original SC1 units sounds to SC2 units? Edit: I mean, the hero unit sounds are fine, but the marine/firebat/medic sounds are from SC2... It would add to the nostalgia value if they were original too | ||

Players "idly" commenting (bugggg...this or buggg that) should read before doing so: this has been stopped mid through.. of course it's not finished.. Ooh, this great piece of work has been around for 6 months or so.. maybe some people need to actually search before they go on about... "been waiting for this forever..." And for anyone wishing this could be "finished/continued"... advertise around you and ask nicely ... maybe some mapmakers will continue this long ass project. Again thank you all for your great work... starcraft reborn Oh and + Show Spoiler + brutal < insane (just the word itself.. i love getting creamed on both ) | ||

Thanks for the support, everyone. I have to say I'm pretty overwhelmed by the amount of attention this remake is getting. To not come here and get all the credit, though, I want to just mention that the Terran campaign was originally made by Ultraling during the beta (he's working on the Protoss episode now), and the mod is in fact a slightly modified Starcraft 2 - Brood War by MavercK, which you may have heard of. Anyway, the U-238 Shells upgrade (and other possibly broken upgrades) is fixed in the latest version. Then again, the mod just seems to act different for everyone... I'm aware that some people are having issues such as music not playing, some images not showing, that kind of thing. I'd like to blame the Starcraft 2 localization or possibly Mac on those, but I'm not quite sure yet. To all the people who are "unable to launch map", to be perfectly honest I'm just as confused as you are. All I can do is quote Shootemup: On April 10 2011 12:45 Shootemup. wrote: I tried to load this up, but I get a "unable to load game" error, anyone know how to fix this? EDIT: It appears when you download the mod file, you have to hit the "download" button instead of hitting the filename, hope this helps anyone else with the same issue Sounds extremely random, but thanks for this. If anyone could confirm that this actually works, or in case anyone just happens to figure out what causes the problem, please let us know. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + ATTENTION: To all those who are having problems with launching the game! I have had the same problem for the past 2 days. Somehow JUST fixed it. Follow these steps and see if it fixes yours as well. Step 1: Click Rebel Yell v1.03 UNDER RECENT FILES this is a must and download it. Save to Desktop. Step 2: Once download is complete, extract to your maps folder in your starcraft 2 folder. The one located in program files. Replace all existing Rebel Yell maps. Make sure when you click on "Maps" folder that a sub folder called "Rebel Yell" is there. In that folder should be only the maps and no other folders. Step 3: Once again under RECENT FILES. Click and download the "SC1 Mod v1.02" download and save to your starcraft 2 "Mods" folder, DO NOT CREATE A FOLDER CALLED SC1MOD, just simply save that file to the mods folder that should already be there. Replace previous mod with this one. Step 4: You should be able to play the maps by Dragging the map on to the starcraft 2 shortcut. Enjoy. Side notes: For some reason the only way I got this to work was by grabbing the maps and mod under the "Recent Files" located to the right of this page. If you downloaded it by clicking under "Download & How to play" it simply did not work. I also only got the maps to properly extract by saving the folder to my desktop first and then extracting it after to the maps folder. I hope this solves everyones problem! This is... confusing to me. Apparently the mod file gets easily corrupted during the download, or something. Also: On April 12 2011 01:14 Count9 wrote: I get an error where I can load half the maps but the other half I get stuck on mission briefing screen with nothing nappening =( nvm, fixed it, all you have to do is wait ~5 sec after press any button to continue before pressing the button rather than spam enter or w/e Thanks Count, that should help a bunch of people. I always wait a few seconds by default before launching the game. The map starts could probably be smoothed out a little... I could also make a half-assed troubleshooting guide I guess. Kelberot: That's definitely not normal, and a new one for me. Sorry. Duckvillelol: See the above guide. Albrithe: Heh. Working as intended. | ||

Side notes: For some reason the only way I got this to work was by grabbing the maps and mod under the "Recent Files" located to the right of this page. If you downloaded it by clicking under "Download & How to play" it simply did not work. I also only got the maps to properly extract by saving the folder to my desktop first and then extracting it after to the maps folder. I hope this solves everyones problem! This is... confusing to me. Apparently the mod file gets easily corrupted during the download, or something. Also: Thanks Count, that should help a bunch of people. I always wait a few seconds by default before launching the game. The map starts could probably be smoothed out a little... I could also make a half-assed troubleshooting guide I guess. Kelberot: That's definitely not normal, and a new one for me. Sorry. Duckvillelol: See the above guide. Albrithe: Heh. Working as intended. This fix doesn't work for me. If I don't make the SC1MOD folder in the mods directory; I get the "Unable to load" error. When I create the SC1mod folder, I can get into the game and get into the first map, but still no Jim Raynor, so instant-loss. (I redownloaded the files as specified above to test all of this FYI) | ||

It is not game-breaking in the zerg campaign, but I noticed it immediately in the second zerg mission, they are far more powerful against zerglings/hydralisks. | ||

You can get an expansion in the top middle from the top left, and one the right. Both have a cannon and some protoss guys in them, though. For the first few two waves, it helps, if you spot them in time, to nydus kerrigan, her two ultras, and her two hydras there. Also, you can produce drones from all three hatcheries in the beginning to jumpstart your economy. I would advice you not to use mass crawlers, because, while it works in the beginning, at some time they will kill you, and you can not do a lot of other stuff while massing these crawlers. If you somehow manage to get a good bunch of mutas, they destroy everything too. But this probably only happens after you killed at least one or two of the protoss bases with lings. Which is very easy, if you pay very close attention to the reavers. If you manage to absorb the first reaver shot with a single ling, and then focus it manually, your lings kill everything else. Sadly, if you don't focus the reaver, it is the last thing your lings will attack. Edit: Also, i forgot to say that this whole campaign project rocks. A lot. | ||

About the campaign: on my computer, the IA doesn't react to guardian attacks. The unit just stands at the same place until it dies, unless the guardian gets really close. Anyone has the same issue? | ||

I had a little trouble at first, but then I restarded the mission, and for whatever reason, 90% of the attacks came to my main/top right canyon... ez mode from there. Can't say for sure if this would have been the hardest otherwise, but I personally found the next one to be. (Z9) Whenever he pushes with like 10 zealots, 6 dragoons, 2 archons, 1 reaver, 8 scouts, 2 arbiters, and 2 carriers, all with 3/3/3, I kind of felt it to be a little bit of a problem. Then I found out you could make devourers as well >.<. Oh, by the way, scourge are free units and costs only supply. They seem to be pretty buggy in behaviour though and aren't all THAT useful. Love both campaigns so far anyway, especially episode 2. Looking forward to ep.3 | ||

Tried different tactics, but cant find something that actually works. Anyone got some tips on this one? First I tried to do it without using Brood War tech, but it was so hard to keep the phalanges of zealots at bay with split forces that I eventually tried the lurkers, and the mission was suddenly a LOT easier.Tech to lurkers, burrow three of them in each canyon and a couple more in your base, and you'll be relatively safe against all breakthrough attempts if you have a few zerglings to soak damage and hydralisks to deal with the scouts. Then I used a ball of mutalisks to wipe the map, as I did in many previous levels. The Invasion of Aiur was a challening but very enjoyable level. Mutas deathcloud or guardian carpet-bombing don't work well due to the IA's templars/archons and scout/carriers strategies. This level was more of a macro game, and I had to make a good mix of units to deal withthe various threats. One my favorite levels so far. I haven't try Full Circle yet, but I'm looking forward to it. | ||

The developpers said they might introduce lower difficulty levels at some point, but for now you'll have to deal with it. Pretty much, in any mission when you could get 2 gases, I just dumped all my gas into mutas, built a million lings with upgrades and rolled. I feel like the adrenal gland upgrade is monstrous also. Wait until mission 9 and 10. Suffice to say: archons/reavers/scouts. | ||

Really worth a look if you have trouble. | ||

I can understand why Terran 8 has been giving so many people difficulty... go heavy, heavy mech with at least 6 factories and crank out tanks and goliaths... a couple of early nukes really helps in pushing out of your base, and then turreting up the entire right side of the enemy base once you control it. Also, move your production buildings up the map - don't be a nub like me and lose a constant stream of rallied tanks and marines to the enemies' wraith and BC forces. Terran 10 can also be hard - easiest strat is probably to tank and turret up the middle of the map between the two enemy bases, take the far right expansion and mass BCs to clean out red, then go for the ion cannon. The zerg campaign was much harder for me than the terran one... I had to restart zerg 4 several times because the early drops kept destroying me before I could get mutas up; build massive numbers of spines to secure your base, but once you have mutas, it gets much easier. Zerg 9 was quite brutal, you really have to balance your unit mix, and getting scourge against the carriers really helps. Also, try to clean out at least the midrange bases (beneath the cannon ridges) before mining the crystal, as otherwise the protoss attack waves are basically unstoppable. For zerg 10, you can just take the bottom bases mass up about a hundred cracklings, clean out everything in front of the temple then macro up another wave of cracklings to destroy the actual temple. Actually, mass cracklings are pretty effective on zerg 7 as well, since all the enemy has is a couple of brood lords and ultras. Zerg 8: Lurkers. That is all. Well, large defensive groups of hydras can work too, but they get chewed up by the occasional reaver. Overall, really awesome. The only beef I have is that sometimes, the maps had unbuildable expansions due to mineral placement or doodads (terran 8 comes to mind, you can't build a command center in the top left expansion due to mineral placement. Can't wait for the protoss campaign! (And hopefully eventually the BW ones, if we're so lucky! Can't wait to see what the last mission of the zerg BW campaign will be like in SC2 - it was difficult enough before, it must be totally brutal with an SCII AI backing it up.) | ||

Speaking of which, will you reckon that they will remake the Starcraft 1 expansions aside from Brood War. I heard Insurrection and Resurrection are the rarest expansions (even though they were poorly received somewhat) and it would be nice to relive them a little bit. | ||

Beside the original and broodwar there were a lot fanmade missions for broodwar. Most of them sucked but there were some true gems. Some of them I could only complete by slowing down the gamespeed. I don't know if those are still available. | ||

Any word on when the Protoss campaign will be released? They didn't give any date, though one of the guys mentionned 10 days ago that there was at least one month of work left.So I wouldn't expect it before the end of June, and even then, no guarantee. They do this during their free time after all. | ||

Not to spoil it for anyone but holy hell. Some of the aspects are so brutal it takes a second attempt once you know what is coming for you. On the other hand (You have 5 different fingers) the Overmind campaign [Remake of Zerg SC campaign] is relatively easy, even easier than the original since managing a swarm with 255 unit selection and multiple hatcherys on one hotkey changes the amount of things you can do at once or even casually. But holy hell. Some of those Rebel Yell missions. Its like the UPS guy shows up, knocks on your door; You open up and he shouts Surprise! And punches you in the crotch. | ||

1. Kerrigan (terran) form is completely useless and is more of a hassle than a benefit. The AI is so good that when she cloacks she gets scanned (or 'observed') immediatly making her die in seconds. It's really not fun that you have to babysit and guard her in the middle of your base so you don't let her get killed accidently. Especially in mission 8 she died a couple of times which made me lose a lot of time. 2. This is more optional, make supply depos able to burrow, its really annoying that you can't. (incomming nostalgia flame!) Again thank you for your effort, best custom map by far! | ||

I'd also like to state that I hate Zerg mission 8. They send a huge force with ONE dark templar to attack my top left base and before I can respond to it, the dt has run by all my units there (they were attacking the zealots I think) and caused me to lose... grrrrrrrr >_< | ||

After getting increasingly frustrated at how I couldn't add all my barracks to the one control group and the different hotkeys, I gave up.

"Artistic License" (some notable differences from the original campaign) Medics! There were no medics in the original campaign, but where's the fun in that? Your marines need 'em Kerrigan has the snipe ability (along with the original ghost abilities) because it's just too cool Mission 4 "The Jacobs Installation" - you'll see Difficulty level should be harder and actually keep you busy towards the end. Don't worry, I've tested it and I'm not that great. The final maps should give you a decent challenge though. | ||
