None.

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

in the install.exe of the broodwar CD OR in your BroodWar.mpq, if you are using the 1.15 noCD feature.

how would i extract them? o.o



None.

We live in a society.

Use WinMPQ to look inside the .MPQ files and extract things from them.
If I remember correctly, the scenarios are stored in .CHK format, not .SCM or .SCX.

1. start winmpw
2. go to "File" -> "Open"
3. select the Install.exe
4. click "Open"
5. smile & be happy

don't double click on the exe... that will start the exe...
select the exe, press open to open it. Search the *.chk files and extract all.

None.

i got the exact same thing



None.

Yes. There's a LOT of files in there, far more than just the campaigns. Fortunately for you, the thing on top with an asterisk (wildcard) in it is a search. (This is why it is listing everything.) Now, I've told you that you're looking for .CHK files. So, put two and two together and the campaign is yours to extract.

The unknowns are because you have not properly added SC's listfile to WinMPQ under options.

I like this way better: CampaignUtility.
Just extract the archive into a folder, insert your SC/BW cd into your computer (or both discs if you can), and run the program. Virtual disc drives and the 1.15.2 no-CD thingy both work.

Code
                          ("`-''-/").___..--''"`-._
                         `6_ 6  )   `-.  (     ).  `-.__.`)
                          (_Y_.)'  ._   )  `._ `.  ``-..-'
                        _..`--'_..-_/  /--'_.' ,'
                       (il),-''  (li),'  ((!.-'
