What the spruck did that patch do, anyway. THANK GOD I never updated / rolled back, and keep using the latest MPQs from 1.22 (that feature the new ramps) since I'm running a custom profile.
When I was making my welcoming post I had a problem with ScmDraft because of a ramp in one of my maps, which I had to remove so that the program could open my map, after I noticed the message in the console. Because of the error message I got, and after reading your comment, now I think the problem is that there are missing MPQs.
Anyone who is having troubles with Scmdraft 2 at the moment should set their region to Asia (not sure how long this will be accurate, but as of this posting it still is) which will allow you to rollback SC:R to the previous version which still allows Scmdraft 2 to operate. Once you've done this, make a backup of your SC:R folder somewhere where Blizzard won't touch it. For the future, use your backup SC:R folder as the directory which Scmdraft 2 looks to. This will still allow you to use the Scmdraft settings for SC Version 1.23 or newer, independent of Acti-blizzard's fuckery. I'm not sure but I think the version 1.23 updates might include the unlimited strings addition which is pretty big.
The unlimited strings came much earlier than the present clusterfuck, I think in 1.23.2? They've been around for over a year now.
So make sure you preserve the 1.23.8.9411 build, which was the last public one before all of this shit started.
Trial and error... mostly error.
if you have errors I recommend using the scmdraft with mpqs

Okay, yeah I wasn't linking the unlimited strings update to said 'present clusterfuck', but rather the 1.23 version of Scmdraft which requires the backup of the previous version to work now. Luckily enough of us have it saved that it should be easy enough to disseminate. MTiger already uploaded his copy to
Mediafire for anyone who needs it.

Welp, it doesn't work. I get some error when I try to open scmdraft.
It's probably time for me to just make real games on gamemaker studio or something lolEdit: I'm dumb; you just need visual c++:
