MPQDraft on Windows 7

Hi. Apologies if this is in the wrong section.

I can go through all the steps in various SC BW mod tutorials (i.e. mod the marine to give him shields) up to the use of MPQDraft. When I use either the "Load MPQ" or .exe, my screen re-sizes and goes into 256 color mode (as usual when I run Starcraft). However, the game fails to run, without any "error" prompts. After 30 or so seconds, my screen re-sizes back to normal.

Any tips? I'm using Windows 7 (Basic?).

Thanks, Saima



None.

You should post the mpq/exe so that we can look at it and see if there's anything wrong with it.

Good news! I fixed the problem.

Turns out I was using an older version of MPQDraft which was not compatible with Windows 7.

NimoStar shouted: They were not "Unprepared" that was their fifth loss in a row against the bot. The other replays are also available
that doesn't mean he was prepared. When humans come around with new strategies it often takes weeks until the pros figure out how to shut it down. Oh_Man that's certainly a way more convincing argument for micro being "too good to beat".
