Hello, My SCM Draft seems to be going a little crazy. it seems to be trying to load boodat.mpq and the like from "Starforge" i tried removing starforge and scm and reinstalling SCM but it still persists on going to search in the starforge folder. any assistance would be lovely, thank you.



None.

You can change where SCMDraft loads the mpq files by clicking on "Edit" for the profile. These are the default settings:

%SCPATH%stardat.mpq
%SCPATH%broodat.mpq
%SCPATH%patch_rt.mpq

If your SC Path is screwed up, you can set it in this window.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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

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

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.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.

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:
