Surely just giving an ingame option to do it automatically is the best way....I don't want to have to stare at tychus' face any more ;-;

Blizzard's whole design philosophy of late is a major turnoff. I just can't stand them as a company to continue to support something that I love (starcraft and the competitive gaming community).

It's pretty clear this wasn't the intent behind the patch, it's just an unfortunate side-effect. If enough people tell Blizzard that they want to be able to do this, they might just implement some way to do it for HotS. So keep asking for it, but do it politely without hate!

I'll say more. If you just make any game file "Read only" without modifying it, it will still end with endless calculating size window.

Well, I'd rather have good sounds/music/mods than be able to watch Orb's casts, so this is quite disappointing.

I'd rather have no modding than hacks. Odds are this won't shut down all hacks, but it'll sure make it harder and give blizzard more ways to track and stop the existing ones.

Oh well. It had to be done when cloaked banshees could be seen when cloaked easily(read that onthis forum that some people modified for that)

As for STC, wait for blizzard soon, it will be back

If this removes stronger colour I am sure they will be working in something for colour blind people.

It's my understanding that depending on exactly how blizzard have decided to change the STC implementation this patch as they have done every patch (between adding the SC2Asset file and manually editing the MPQ's), we may still be able to use the STC mod. If they left it as it has been for a while now in that only an SC2Asset file was needed for the STC to work, then we aren't actually editing any existing files at all, but simply adding a file.

Don't lose hope yet.

Existor, any opinion on how this will affect relocalizers? I know that the popular relocalizer edits mpq.

From what I know of hacking this won't stop very much hacking at all. Maybe if a file was editing to make DTs visible instead of invisible? Other than that I can't think of this as being very good at stopping hacks at all as normally hacks work by injecting code into the starcraft exe rather than editing existing files.

^Yeah I think he's right that this won't do anything to stop the hacks. My very primitive understanding is that they operate external to SC2. Would be nice to hear someone knowledgeable speak about it, though.

Will this prevent us from using relocalizers?

there is always ways around things. I'm sure someone will figure it out.
