This works for everything,.

Yes, but you said that the patch was wrong.

I actually thought the patch was all a joke, up until now...

I just logged onto battle.net no patch to download... so this is a joke... My "No disk" still works!

You are both wrong (OP and Test) while the method you described is close, the proper method is to put it in the "StarCraft Files" folder for mac, not the StarCraft folder.

FireGraft is going to take a bit of a back seat right now. The No-CD feature probably changed a bit of the code enough to cause me some headache. Even so, I've already started on a restructuring that will allow me to keep exe edits stored across versions so that IF the offsets have been found for that version, they will be on automatically. Oh, and I've got it set up to give the functionality to specify and add versions to an exe.

However, I have to actually go and figure out how the no-cd part is working, and fix myself up to work with that. However, it might take quite a while to figure it all out...

Lol, after dling the patch I can get on East but not west; it gives me an error.

Guess that's one more reason why East > West

Quite the opposite. Due to Modders now being more awesome, productive, and more popular than mappers, we can now use West so our latest FG version works.

Another reason why West > East, lolol.

You're so blatantly wrong. Maps are being played by more than 50000 people at any given time. How many people do you see consistently running around using mods?

West hasn't been updated with 1.15.2 yet, so they can still play FG mods on there.

He's referring to mappers versus modders. Not people who play maps or mods. Heck, you can't play a mod without a map, so it's impossible for mod players to pass map players.

Well, I was referring to the popularity thing.

No, I would just guess they changed F:/INSTALL.EXE to SCPATH/StarCraft.mpq in the default MPQ list, which is quite similar to what modders do with MPQDraft. If I'm right, then MPQDraft will work perfectly fine with the CD thing.

I said grafted mods... Anyways, new patches are usually bad news for modders.

Use another program to save it. For example, open the file in Notepad, then press "save as", go to your SC folder, and name it "BroodWar.mpq" (quotes included)
