Ok, yesterday I was hosting fine and everything, until suddenly people couldn't join my games. It might be because of a windows update at the time, but that was just Internet Explorer 7. I made sure that my router was still on DMZ and my Windows Firewall off, but to no avail. I also system restored to December 10th, and that did nothing.

Any ideas?



None.

Forward port 6112 for both udp and tcp in your router settings, if you haven't already.



None.

My router is on DMZ for me, so no need.

Never mind, found out it was SCMDraft corrupting my scenarios so no one could join. Look in my topic in UMS Help if you're interested.

Telling someone to port forward because it sounded like that was the problem, isn't giving a lot of information?

How were we to know that it was SCMDraft?

But, whatever.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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

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?
