Every time I try to get a map editor to load it says "stardat.mpq not found". Also, if I try to use a program, an example being scSoundUtility, it says stardat.mpq not found. This really sucks an I need to know how to fix it please. My stardat.mpq file is clearly visible and has not be changed by anything. In fact, I have reinstalled sc 3 times to try to fix this.

Is SC in the default directory, also, in SCM Draft you can select exactly where it is.

in regedit (start->Run... "regedit") go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Blizzard Entertainment\Starcraft and make sure that the values for InstallPath, Program, and StarEdit have the correct path.

Defaults (change accordingly if you use a different path):
InstallPath = C:\Program Files\Starcraft\
Program = C:\Program Files\Starcraft\Starcraft.exe
StarEdit = C:\Program Files\Starcraft\

You can also use this to fix it.

I think it is from not using "uninstall". I have simply been deleting sc before i reinstall. Could that be the problem? Neither of your methods worked.

I don't think that's the issue, but try it.



None.

You can delete StarCraft registry values
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Blizzard Entertainment\Starcraft
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Blizzard Entertainment\Starcraft (except the three previous mentioned, StarCD, Retail, Brood War, and Recent Maps... or just stay away from this one.)

NudeRaider -- I bet it just needs another training session against pros instead of only against itself and nobody will be able to stop it anymore.

so it can be beaten by a prepared pro, even in macro games, if only barely. the muta micro in particular seems really hard to handle for protoss ground though. In the open goons can't catch them, in the base they trip over buildings, it just instantly flies out of storms and they fly circles around archons. Mass cannons do work, but can't cover the whole map with it. Probably need mass corsair to counter and hope you can outmaneuver all the scourge.
