28/04/2013 - State of the mod

Apparently HotS/the latest major Starcraft 2 update has once again caused some small problems throughout the campaigns. However, aside from episode 3, it seems there are no major issues present at the moment, 99% of everything should work. Everything should be compatible with both HotS and WoL - but probably more compatible with WoL. If you're experiencing problems, try switching to Wings of Liberty mode in the Starcraft 2 gameplay options menu. If you're getting "unable to open map" errors when using the campaign launcher and your Starcraft 2 is up to date, chances are you don't have the necessary files in the right locations - read the instructions carefully.

Know that we're still not happy with the state of the remake. We're already knee-deep in working towards a larger update to all six episodes, so there's no turning back to doing small bug fixing updates. We're making good progress so far, and looking to have everything done by the end of the year (hopefully major mod-breaking updates to the game have settled down a little bit by then). There likely won't be any updates this summer.

The upcoming version(s) will require Heart of the Swarm.

First of all, huge thanks to Ultraling and Maverck for having done most of the work and making this campaign possible. Both of them were awesome about letting me use their stuff to put this thing together. These are originally Ultraling's maps, found here in sc2mapster. I picked them up a long time ago and slowly worked on them, editing terrain, adding all kinds of flavor here and there, including Maverck's Brood War mod, and this is the result.

Features

• all 10 original missions + the tutorial
• original SC1 units and structures with original stats, including custom models
• original SC1 Terran soundtrack
• all the dialogue, voice acting & other miscellaneous text from the original campaign
• classic unit decals, such as Alpha Squadron, Sons of Korhal etc.

"Artistic License"

(some notable differences from the original campaign)

• Medics - to balance out the units Brood War style, and to provide more options to the player
• extra "hero" abilities: Kerrigan has the snipe ability, Raynor can replenish Spider Mines
• Mission 4 "The Jacobs Installation" - third person mode (optional)
• two difficulty levels - with a somewhat more aggressive AI than in the original, in order to provide some challenge to the average player

How to play

• extract the map pack to the "Maps" folder in your Starcraft 2 install directory (create the folder if it doesn't exist)
• extract the Campaign Launcher & setup to the same "Maps" folder (not the campaign folder)

Campaign Launcher installation:

• launch the Starcraft 2 editor
• open the setup map named SCMRsetup in your Maps folder and click the "test document" button on the top right (or press ctrl+F9)
• wait until the launcher loads and you're at the title screen, then save the game and exit the map (press esc or F10 to open the game menu)
• find the save file (named "Starcraft - Mass Recall" by default) in (your home/documents folder)/Starcraft II/Saves/VersusAI
• copy or move the save file to the saves folder under your account folder (your home/documents folder)/Starcraft II/Accounts/.../.../Saves/Multiplayer (for example; any of the save folders will do)
• Done! You can now log into the appropriate account and load the save from the load game-screen. You can use this save to play each episode.

more info:

• You can copy the save file to whatever accounts you want. For example, if you want to play offline, copy it to your guest account folder.
• If you're unsure of the right folders or can't find the Starcraft II documents folder, log into an account of your choice in SC2, go to the load game-screen, click on a save and click the "show in folder"-button. It will take you to the appropriate saves folder.
