Creating multilingual maps with WinMPQ

MPQs can have multiple language versions of the same file. I was wondering if worked for maps since they are MPQ files with a different file extension. Turns out it does. Attached proof of concept, french/english version of the starcraft tutorial, the french version will play if you're playing the french version of starcraft and english otherwise. Big catch though: It doesn't seem to work for Korean, I also haven't tested if it works in multiplayer.

hah yeah in the past that might've been up my alley. haven't really been mapping lately, been too busy with everything else. and kinda lost interest too tbh. just not enough people left on SC to feel worth investing the time personally.
