It may not be possible to ask for the mod author to transfer an old version mod to current version, I wonder if I could do it myself.



None.

The only version-specific portion of mods is the grafting component. Using FireGraft to try and convert a mod from one version to another ends up with all sorts of undesirable side effects. It's probably possible to use a hex editor to update the EXE, but I found it faster to just redo the grafting.

I have no idea how to update Samase mods. If you had the original FG EXE, you could just run it through Samase again but presumably only the original author has that.

I found firegraft at "http://www.staredit.net/sc1db/file/2258/", but it says it's outdated and the site "http://www.broodwarai.com/" they suggested isn't available.



None.

Oh_Man -- yea APM vs eAPM
[08:48 am]
NimoStar -- plus most of the human APM is just spam clicking APM inflation
[08:47 am]
NimoStar -- the thing with the "*12" thing is completely misleading. The AI isn't using two control groups, it can use each of those actions to command a single unit individually and issue different commands to each single unit.

NudeRaider -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
*Pluto's wraiths

Vrael -- perhaps there is a small professional player trapped in a box in the server rack where pluto is running? hmm?
[2026-9-21. : 4:14 pm]
Vrael -- 240*12*2 is 5760, where is the other 240 APM?
[2026-9-21. : 3:44 pm]
Oh_Man -- 1 action is selecting the unit and another action is moving it
[2026-9-21. : 2:58 pm]
Vrael -- 240*12 is 2880, where is the other 3000 APM?
