UnholyUrine Post #1

this isn't really a UMS question... but I need the help

I can't DL the patch for some reason.. it's probably because I moved the SC folder from one comp to the other... and the first comp is unde repair (Never buy an Hp Computer guys)...

Anyways it keeps saying this error:
"Registry error loading key 'Starcraft\InstallPath'
The system cannot find the file specified.

RESULT: Prepatch failed"

Can anyone help me with that?

None.

Reinstalling Sc fixes the issue.

After reinstalling copy your whole old sc folder into the newly created one and everything is like it was.
The patch should work now.

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

You can use General Mengsk's Directory Fix program.
Just copy it into your Starcraft folder and execute it. It will create the registry entry and you can continue patching your Starcraft.

Hello

I had also a problem like this... (its not the same but this might be the same reason)
just close every program which uses any file of SCBW.. [for exampel SCMdraft]

Oh_Man -- whereas just "press X to get 50 health back" is pretty mindless

Oh_Man -- because it adds anotherr level of player decision-making where u dont wanna walk too far away from the medic or u lose healing value

[05:01 am]

Oh_Man -- initially I thought it was weird why is he still using the basic pre-EUD medic healing system, but it's actually genius

Vrael shouted: I almost had a heart attack just thinking about calculating all the offsets it would take to do that kind of stuff

With the modern EUD editors, I don't think they're calculating nearly as many offsets as you might imagine. Still some fancy ass work that I'm sure took a ton of effort

[2024-5-06. : 12:51 am]

Oh_Man -- definitely EUD

Vrael -- that is insane

[2024-5-05. : 9:35 pm]

Vrael -- damn is that all EUD effects?

Oh_Man -- https://youtu.be/MHOZptE-_-c are yall seeing this map? it's insane
