Just here for the activity... well not really

So whenever I play the damn campaigns, I freeze sometimes in the briefing. I think this is like, the sound file is corrupt, because whenever I play FFA Random Unit, I freeze whenever they have a quote.

Anyone else have this?

Are you running off a physical CD?



None.

Yeah. Do I need to do the No-CD technique?

I would try it and see if it works, because the sounds are kept on the CD.



None.

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

shut down starcraft's music can fix this, too.
the problem should be the music. I've had the same problem with the zerg theme and my starcraft cd (bluescreen of death on win98 ftw). but I was able to install everything properly :X

When life gives you a gay CD. Mount an .ISO

I can't copy the damn INSTALL.exe without everything crashing, maybe because I use a burned CD, but I can't find my other CD.

Dude, just torrent an ISO of the game, you've already bought it, so it's not stealing..



None.

Yeah, since I bought it fucking twice >_<

Edit2: Yeah, nevermind, it works now. No ISOs for me

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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?
[04:25 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
[06:15 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.

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:
