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.

The final part of the Brood War remake on Starcraft 2, episode 6 - Queen of Blades. Italian version should come soon.

Features all 11 maps of the original campaign, with two difficulty levels, as well as a large number of cutscenes and advanced terraining.

English version

Russian version

French version

German version

How to play

  • extract the mod file (SC1BWmod) to your "Mods" folder in your Starcraft 2 install directory (NOT the folder under "My Documents")
  • 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.

    Yeah sorry bout that - sent you a PM.

    Some wild stabs in the dark:

    If you're using the editor to launch the maps, don't have Starcraft 2 running when you do this.

    Try saving/overwriting the maps with the editor before starting them.

    Try redownloading the files.

    Try going to Options -> Gameplay -> Expansion level and switch to Wings of Liberty. Not sure if it will work, but it solved some issues for other people.

    Hello Jones313, first thank you for your answer. But maybe you don’t find my reply to your answer, so I would like to link it here:

    http://www.sc2mapster.com/maps/sc1-episode-6-queen-blades/?comment=77

    The German version is already finished, it just need to be uploaded.

    I would be very glad if you answer me.

    @Miles07: Go

    how do i do that? (im kinda noob at this) i dont load it in game i do it directly from the editor so im unsure how to switch to WoL.

    Can you tell me how exactly?

    EDIT: just tried it, still nothing seems bugged IMO, I have installed it all correctly exactly as i did before but still nothing, ive double checked, triple checked, quad checked.

    either im missing something or the mod just hates HoTS :)

    Here's the solution: Switch to WoL when playing this mod. They're STILL working on making this project work on HotS, so it's not ready yet.

    (sorry if someone replied to me about this on the rebel yell campaign comments but i couldnt find the response or anything so im reposting my problem here as its the most recent campaign.)

    Hey peeps,

    I am having some what of a dilemma, before SC2 HotS came out everything was working fine, all the modded campaigns were working perfectly no crashes no nothing, so after my play through of HotS I wanted to go back and play through every SC2 campaign again, however this time it wont let me load any of the maps, ive re downloaded everything made sure every file and folder were in the correct directory area's and still I cant open the maps?

    by the way the exact error I get is "unable to open map" then i get sent straight back to the log-in screen >_>

    can some one help me with this? its driving me crazy lol

    If you can, email me with the response : will.higginson@live.co.uk

    Okay, I think it would be good when there is one German WoL version of the project so I would like to share it now or as soon as possible. So how can I do this? Can I send the files to you or provide a download link? And is it possible to communicate with you via PMs? I think that would be easier.

    • It is possible in theory, but that is beyond my programming skills. If any of you thinks he can do it, feel free to give it a shot.
    • I only know it's complicated. Jones spent quite some time on that, and never got anything satisfying.
    • We can't. The only way would be to re-create them in game, as we did with the endings, but that takes a HUGE amount of time.

    why in the original starcraft used units from broodwar?

  • Avatar of GongFuPandak GongFuPandak Apr 01, 2013 at 13:52 UTC - 0 likes

    I have a few suggestions and questions.

    1. Is it possible to make the "installation" easier, like bundle all campaigns and automatically copy the files to the right place with the right modifications?
    2. Is it possible to make the portraits move their lips during dialogues? Should not be too hard to select the corresponding talking portraits in the editor. No one is expecting lip synchronization...the original game had no lip synchronization either.
    3. Can you somehow add the videos as well and call the correct videos and missions automatically as in the original game?
    4. When will your final final version be released?

    Hope at least some of my questions get answered...
