I checked out the mod real quick last night for fun. Looks to me like Ago's Thor and Stalker were hijacked. At least that's where I thought I saw those units before. I don't thing Ago is active here at SEN tho. Other than a cool looking GUI and a nice turret, the mod isn't a whole lot.

Download for Mod is actually here:
SC2.rar
That first link was a 19mb campaign map btw.

I think he made the Immortal and Banshee graphics too, IIRC.

Looks like crap, honestly. Ripping graphics from sc2 screenshots doesn't end well, especially with the weird perspective.



Show them your butt, and when you do, slap it so it creates a sound akin to a chorus of screaming spider monkeys flogging a chime with cacti. Only then can you find your destiny at the tip of the shaft.

The starport's perceptive is really off :P Some of the units aren't that noticeable though.

I checked it out, wasn't very impressed, they're depending on .grps too much.

Its very GRP dependent, but I'm glad to see that they have at least implemented several neat features, such as building Thors with SCV and Stalker's blink (both still need some work though, IMO).

It's old because it still uses the Tempest model.

May 3 2009, 5:23 pm BlazerX Post #12



No, I think that's just cuz its a lot easier to rip the Tempest model. One of the earliest SC2 videos showed the tempest spinning around 360 degrees. The carrier, on the other hand, would need to be ripped from screenshots, which may not have all the directions.

Sadly, the Siege Tank ends up with this "lack of direction" syndrome, since the siege mode turret barely ever turns, making it look very awkward.

Yea. All this is is a poorly made graphical mod.

Ya this is pretty weak. :lol: I did however love the Terran GUI, the Warcraft3 modified menu, and there was a nifty turret! But then again I always tend to focus on the positive aspects of things.

The saddest part tho is that despite how terrible the graphics are, they're better than most of the nothing you losers have done. That's what is really sad. :) whaaaaaat?

I prefer syphon's SC2 kitbash buildings over the ones they use there.

Ya his kitbashes are great. He's a photoshop master. Maybe somebody should do something with them tho. What good is a .grp if nothing ever happens with it.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically
[2026-6-21. : 4:26 am]
Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings
[2026-6-20. : 6:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.
[2026-6-20. : 3:47 pm]
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:
[2026-6-19. : 9:57 am]
Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
