I just want to say thank you for your work and time spent into such customization! Also I'm testing right now if Existor's MPQ prioritization method will work for people who can't use certain models, will be posting result later.
Update: Existor's MPQ prioritization method does work, I now have the marine and Thor skin working.
1) Go to your Liberty.SC2Mod folder and make a copy of your base.SC2Assets file (make sure to make a backup as well.)
2) Unzip the Terran folder you downloaded from Teliko.
3) Open up the Terran folder, then go into the Mods, then keep going until you see Portrait, Textures, and Units folder.
4) Open up the copy base.SC2Assets file you just copied with the editor, then drag and drop the textures and units folder in to the Asset folder.
5) After you are done, close the editor, and put the base.SC2Assets into the Liberty.Multi SC2Mod folder.
6) The skins should be working now.
Worked like a charm for me! Thanks for the steps 
Again, great mod.

You can try the mpq prioritisation method posted by existor, but I've never tried it or had the patch bug, so I can't promise anything. As always, back up your mpqs before doing any editing. I'll get around to all the problems people are experiencing once my internet gets itself together, it's really awkward to experiment with mpqs to test various peoples problems when I've very limited access to the internet, so apologies for the delay.
I did use the latest packages but i still get the dark pylon :< . How can i get rid of the dark pylon and go to the regular pylon ?

Installed it again. Still patches, but the rest works now. Best of luck to you solving the patch problem.

Thank you so much existentialism! ive been trying to get that to work for sometime now haha. but when i did this the other units that i modded reverted back to there old model T.T is there a fix for that?
Just simply put the other units folder into it as well.

I just noticed that the new dropships dont show their cargo, the bar above the ship and the pics on the bottom are missing. I remember the merc medivac in the campaign was able to show both. Did I mess something up?

how do i get rid of the dark pylon and have the regular one. i don't like the dark pylon

this is probably the SICKEST mod out there for all colors, i'm blown away

It looks like my units had their up and go in the morning,

Awesome mod! Unfortunately mine still patches. Idk if it makes any difference, but I have the DL version of SC instead of the CD.
I'll keep checking back here to see if anyone found a solution to the patch problem, but anyways great work Teliko!

It's like 20% cooler, good job !

I asked the same question before, people with a CD client also seem to have that problem. Waiting for Teliko to show the updater who's boss as well.

This looks absolutely awesome, I've always wanted something like this since playing the single player. Just to make sure, this is compatible with the brood war sounds as well right?

You don't replace sound files, so I dont see a problem using both.

Hey for the dark protoss buildings fix where are we supposed to put the folder of buildings textures?

Open the base.SC2Assets with the editor and drop all the files to base.SC2Assets/Assets/Textures.

Ahoyhoy everyone, apologies for being afk for so long. We had huge problems getting the internet set up at the new house, but we finally got it sorted and it feels goooood.
Old internet:

New internet:

From slower than 78% to faster than 97%? Hhhhoboi. This is probably a relevant time to announce that I'm hoping to start streaming, possibly casting, at some point in future. Not many looking for EU casters, so I'm trying to find a US stream seeing as I sleep at retarded times anyway, but I'll see how things go.
Anyway, huge thanks to those of you who helped others in my absence, but I'll answer what I can just to prevent any confusion.

This is because you're not installing the mods folder correctly. If you tried that and it caused you to patch, try this as a fix. (Credit to BioVolt for already having this written out for me while my internet was ballsing up. This goes to everyone else having patching issues.)
To install this, go to C:\Program Files (x86)\StarCraft II\Mods\Liberty.SC2Mod and copy base.SC2Assets to C:\Program Files (x86)\StarCraft II\Mods\LibertyMulti.SC2Mod then using the MPQEditor open the new base.SC2Assets file you just copied to C:\Program Files (x86)\StarCraft II\Mods\LibertyMulti.SC2Mod\ and drop the mods folder in there. Your client will not try to patch on startup anymore and you will have all the units now, including the collector's edition Thor! (If your client does try to patch, make sure your remembered to replace the patch.SC2Archive with the original backup and startup again.

Hello,
I love the way this looks for the Protoss units / buildings, but I am having a problem where most of the Protoss buildings are not properly textured - the gateway, assimilator, cybercore, etc are all just blank purple buildings. Did I do something wrong, or do I need to have my graphics settings above a certain threshold in order for it to work? [I am playing on low currently] If posting a screen cap would be helpful I can do that too , just let me know
I think this may have been my fault. Apparently when I zipped the Protoss Buildings folder, it decided to create the zip called Protoss Buildings, and retain that folder inside the archive, so people were probably accidentally installing the wrong folder name because of that. I'm waiting for the update to be accepted on sc2mapster, but for now you can just ignore the Protoss Buildings folder and only install the Assets folder.

But I have a problem regarding the protoss buildings. Can't get it to work  ![[image loading]](http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/1737/protossbuildings.jpg) Everything else works fine, but the buildings, except Nexus and Pylon, only appear in player color. So what have i done wrong? I did put them here : C:\Program Files (x86)\StarCraft II\Mods\Liberty.SC2Mod in base.SC2Assets. Should they be put somewhere else? By comparing my backup with downloaded zip-file i noticed there are some aditional files like ..._emissivegreen.dds and ..._emissivered.dds which are not included in the file. Is it possible this might have an effect? I'm open to suggestions anyway^^ They look like they are completely untextured. Meaning, the game might not detect the textures u made. Dear OP, Is there an easy way to get these mods (Protoss Units + Protoss Buildings) to work on the Mac? I can't use MPQEditor because it only supports Windows and I'd like to play on my Mac. With the Stronger team Color mod, I could just paste a EnGB.SC2Data in my files and it'd work! Kind regards
I've personally never done this on a mac, but here's a quote from another of my threads by BoBisComing2getU
On July 28 2011 00:25 BoBisComing2getU wrote:If you're using a mac, first you have to download MPQ Extractor and DropMPQ. Then go to the enUS.SC2Assets file and open it with MPQ Extractor. A folder called enUS should appear in the liberty.SC2mod folder right above the original enUS.SC2Assets file. Drag the enUS folder onto you desktop. Then open the folder containing your desired sounds and use the contents to replace the contents of the old sound folder found in the folder LocalizedData inside the enUS you just put on your desktop (NOTE: if you are lazy and simply replace the old sound folder with the new it will not work. You must keep the old/original sound folder and replace all its contents.) Then open up DropMPQ and drop the now edited enUS folder into it. A .mpq file should appear on your desktop. Change the extension of the .mpq file to .SC2Assets. Replace the old enUS.SC2Assets file in the liberty.SC2 mod with the new one on your desktop and you should be good to go. If you are confused about where some of these files are located I wrote this post assuming everyone had already read Teliko's OP, so you might want to try giving that a read. + Show Spoiler +As always, do this at your own peril. MPQ editing is against the ToS. While there are a lot of people doing it without any reported bans such as Pzea's Stronger Team Colours, the Background Menu Customisation or my Ghost to Nova Model Edit, I'm not going to tell you there's no chance of getting banned for doing it because there's always a risk no matter what anyone tells you.
Still interested? Awesome, me too. First off, you're going to need to download the MPQEditor. This is by no means advanced software, it just lets us open the files used to make SC what it is, and let us see what's inside. As well as edit them. Obviously.
Go to your SC2 folder, Mods\Liberty.SC2mod and then open enGB.SC2assets with the MPQEditor (Just drag and drop it onto the editor). This might also be called enUS/ruRU/deDE/zhTW.SC2Assets or whatever. Depends on your region. There's also one in there called enGB.SC2Data. Make sure you don't mix them up. BACK UP YOUR enGB.SC2ASSETS FIRST INCASE YOU MESS UP or change your mind later.
After you've got that open, go to the folder "LocalizedData" inside. This will have the two folders "Facial" and "Sounds" within it. You're going to need to replace the "Sounds" folder with the one in the download below. After that, you're good to go. Thanks again Teliko for the sound files and all your help!

You'll have to install your backup and remove any files regarding dark pylon from the download before applying it, or extract the pylon from your backup and install it to your main mpq manually.

Would I be right in saying you noticed this is one of the unit test maps? I was having this issue too, but it happened when I wasn't using the mod, too. I think it just happens when you're on maps that allow you to control two or more players because you're not meant to be able to see as the opponent.

Yes, I noticed that on a unit test map. Didn't see the bug occur on a normal map, altough I got to admit, I didn't pay much attention to the cargo of dropships.

Tried it again, still seems to be fine for me outside custom maps. While you naturally wouldn't notice the cargo being there because you're used to it, you would probably have noticed if it wasn't there

It seems this recent patch manage to change something again, now my marine and thor skins aren't working, the rest are fine. Even though it shouldn't be cause I used the MPQ prioritization method instead of installing it directly =/.

hey Teliko if I could make a suggestion, it woulkd be super cool if we could get two-tone team colors similar to the dark Protoss buildings but for terran or zerg if possible
