I know there was another post with this link a while ago but i was surprised to find it dead with no attention at all. Idk, maybe i missed something but isn't this revolutionary, at least for watching replays? I use it to watch all my replays and its the greatest tool ever! If everyone already knows about this then I'm sorry for calling attention to it, but I think everyone should give this a try, because seeing sc replays in high res beats the old way by a lot.

I'm not telling everyone to play with this hack, as it would probably get you banned from iccup, plus give you an unfair advantage unless your opponent was using it too, but definitely give it a chance for replay viewing.

CUSTOM RESOLUTION: inside the folder, double click the file called ResHack.ini
and replace the numbers for ur own resolution. This not only lets you customize how much you get to view, but for all my widescreen homies out there, this makes it so that things appear their appropriate size, so say goodbye to stretched out sprites!!!....at least for replays

TIP FROM ME:
if you have a big screen, its probably best that you dont set it to your actual screen resolution as this can make sprites appear way too small. So try playing with the resolution till you find a good size. But definitely pick a resolution with ur screen aspect ratio

Some Bugs(ONLY WITH THE OLD VERSION):

-When playing, clicking on the mini-map while having a unit selected wont send it to the correct position.

-Fog of war is basically turned off so the whole map is revealed. This doesn't mean that you can see your opponent, just that instead of the fog, you see the map
