I've been working at maps for SC for a few years now... I've decided to try something new, I would like to edit campaign maps. But alas I can figure out how to get to them... I have the MPQ viewer, but I can't find the things.
I'd love your help if anyone can give it.

I'm not looking for scx/scm files, am I?
In that case what am I looking for?
If I am looking for scx/scm files, I don't see them..

I think they are on the SC CD, but I may be wrong.

You are wrong. ;) There's only 1 big data file

I can't tell you what you are looking for, but I know that you can download the campaigns as scm/scx files.
Try to google it. I forgot where I saw them. sry :/

But if you want to integrate your maps into the starcraft campaign you can't just use/replace scm files. You will need some kind of alternative executable I think. Saw this in other custom campaigns where you could click on the Protoss image to start instead of choosing it manually from the map folders.

WOOPS, it's on the cd - i checked.
open install.exe with WinMPQ... there you can see all the missions. For each mission, just extract all of the files with that name (e.g. protoss1/staredit/...). this will include sound files.

Blizz did not use regular staredit. They used a slightly modified version. The only main difference I could notice by playing would be that it gave them access to all the campaign AI's, obviously.. there were probably more differences, though.

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
