Hi there starcraft lovers (you have to be since you are desperately trying to get your hands on a way to play Starcraft II while its still in the beta testing fase!). Well we were providing a awesome crack to you, and we are providing a new crack for you aswell!!! . The old crack (Starcraft II beta: Cracked) worked great untill beta build 0.10.0.14803 showed up which in fact screwed up the crack and broke everthing. We did provide a solution for you guys, which was to uninstall the crack and reinstall it without updating. However somebody has provided us with a much better solution, giving you the possibility to play with the latest beta builds! Also, because you can now play with the latest beta build… can create your own maps!!! now is that awesome or what? simply update to the latest build and you should get the official Galaxy Map Editor to create your own maps with. If you really like this game make sure you buy it, buying the game grands you a free beta key aswell! |

Starcraft II: All-In-One User Interface
This crack is a very easy installer that includes everyting you need… the login bypass, the lazylauncher 2, and starcrack AI 7.0. The installation is really easy and all thats left for you to get is maps and maybe some additional AI.
Why didnt we promote it untill now?
This “new” starcraft crack has in fact been around just as long as the Starcraft II beta launcher we provide. The thing is that the Launcher was way further and gave so much less errors that it wasnt worth it to try the all-in-one user interface crack. Now the thing is, the beta launcher is no longer supported by the developer and because of that its out dated (you cant play with it anymore after patching beyond beta build version 0.10.0.14803) and the all-in-one user interface is not outdated!
What files do i need?
Alright there are in fact three things you need, the beta client, the crack and some maps. Ofcourse we provide this all to you!
- A pc that has the minimal system requirements
- Starcraft II: beta client
- Starcraft II: All-In-One user interface
What does it support?
With the All-In-One user interface you can select:
- game type;
- game speed;
- game type;
- races;
- up to eight players;
- Set starting locations;
- customize team play options such (like ally unit control and resource share);
- Select multiple AI’s to play against;
- Watch replays.
Continue reading below to see where to get these files and how to use them! Read the guide please and follow the steps exactly.

- complete the instalation and run the shortcut that it made on your desktop
- Warning: Windows Vista and Windows 7 users have to run it as administrator (right click the shortcut > properties > compatibility)

If your error isnt listed here your problem might be solved here though. If you run into problems leave a comment and we will try to help you as good as we can!
Q: Is this launcher legit?
A: Yes, it is.
Q: The Launcher still work after 31-5-2010 (Beta phase 1 End)?
A: Yes, it will.
Q: I have a beta key but I also want to play offline with this launcher, can I do that?
A: Yes,the launcher does not modify any game files and it will not interfere with Blizzard.
Q: My replays wont work, why?
A: Make sure you have the latest cache(these must be cache files of the latest patch, so do not expect the if you go and download cache files that say are for patch 13 and there are no other newer ones, that your replays must work, you have to wait until cache files for the latest game patch are released and also from what I tested cache files always worked to play replays so if you get your cache files of the latest patch from someone else, there is a chance they will not work) files and that you are playing a replay of a game made in the latest game patch and you have the latest game patch installed.
Q: I got a problem with the AI, what should I do?
A: The AI and launcher are 2 different things that are simply working togheter.For AI problems post a comment
Q: The launcher wont start ,what should I do?
A: Make sure you have .NET 3.5 SP1 , and the verdana font
Q: Launcher will not launch the game, what should I do?
A: Make sure the launcher or game is not blocked by the antivirus or firewall, and if you are a Vista or Win7 user run the launcher as administrator or turn off UAC
Q: I want to make my own dificulty level, how can I do that?
A: You can manualy do it(which might screw your game if you have no idea what you are doing) or just wait until the launcher will have the AI editor
Q: I’ve got a problem but the FAQ didn’t help, what should I do?
A: Try to do a clean instal following Charlemagne installation guide
Q: I have downloaded the file but it has no extension, what should I do?
A: Just add the extension “.exe” without the quotes in the file name. (e.g. mysetupfile.exe)
Q: Starcraft II patched to a new version what should I do?
A: Check for any new updates of the launcher, if there are any download them, delete the one you previously had, and install this new one, also check for cache updates and if there are any delete your current cache and place the new.
Q: When I run the launcher the User Interface seems “off place” (borders, buttons, etc.) what is wrong?
A: You have set your Windows Font DPI settings over or under 100%. The launcher works only with fonts set at 100% DPI!

A: Yes, you can.
Q: Can I play custom maps?
A: Yes you can as long as they don’t have triggers (besides the default) and are made like the blizzard maps.So if you want to make your own map to launch it with this launcher, first load in the editor an official map and study it.For any other maps you want to try out load it in the map editor and press the “Test Document” button.
Q: I get an error msg “file not found” every time i try to launch a game why?
A: Your Antivirus / Firewall / UAC / or Windows Rights are preventing the tool for running correctly and create the files needed! Even worst those file may be deleted automatically or blocked by your AV software! Turn them all OFF and reinstall the launcher and run it as Administrator!
Q: When I press the Launch button but nothing happens! No error, nothing, the game just doesn’t start up! Why?
A: Possible the game is “stuck” running in your memory! Press ctrl+alt+del open Task-Manager locate “sc2.exe” process, and END TASK it, or just restart your computer.
Q: I downloaded some map files but i don’t know where to place them. What should I do?
A: Follow the solution for your operating system:
-For Win XP users: place them in C:Documents and Settings*YourUserName*My DocumentsStarCraft II BetaMaps
-For Vista and Win7 users: C:Users*YourUserName*DocumentsStarCraft II BetaMaps
-OR simply use from the Launcher’s Map Tab, the button “Add maps from folder…

Thanks! Great job. Now if we can only find a way to play multiplayer …
you should try “Tunngle”, its a program that lets you play lan games on the internet. it works ALOT better than Hamachi and almost everygame that has LAN-multiplayer option can be found in Tunngle, so its easy to find people who wants to play the same game as you.
Hope this helps : )

I got a “some files were corrupted” error at the end of the crack instalation… I will try downloading the file again.
Did redownloading fix it?
The loader took al night to finish patching, I tried installing the hack before running off to work, I will try it again when I get home. Thanks for the follow up! I will get back to you ASAP.
I downloaded the new crack and its working fine. Great work!

how do i stop it from updating?
just don’t launch the starcraft client or close the update patch client window.
And then proceed with the crack step.
then launch the game from the crack launcher

@spamme There are a couple reasons why this doesnt have multi.
A- Us hacker programmers cant crack the direct ip/LAN connections when theres nothing to crack. Blizzard hasnt put out the option and probably wont until the end version.
B-Blizzard has had tons of experience with hackers and if what ive heard is true, this wardens slightly better and smarter (Basicly this new one is average. Old warder was RETARDED.)
LOL … I thought it was as simple as creating an offline server to emulate BNET. Do you think Blizzard would go the “ubisoft-got-pwned-with-ac2-offline-server” scheme for the multiplayer setup?
Waste of the time if you ask me. It will eventually be cracked today or tomorrow.

Takes a lil while sumtimes on slower connections

Posted on: May 5th, 2010 at 20:40
k so the game flashes like hell making it almost unuseble and doesn’t the crack make it so I do not have to fill in a battle.net acc? and for the flashing, it starts flashing as soon as it is loading and ends when I press quit -.-
well I got it now, you need to click the exe in the all in one file and the flashing stops when I am actualy playing the game so, ty for the crack ^^

After I press launch it loads and after the loading bar fills it flashes then I can see that planet with the ring for line 2 sec and it crashes
Nevermind, I just preordered the game at gamestop. They will give you a beta key to play online when you pre-order. Might as well you’re going to buy the game anyways. Just got the key today will be playing this online! So just spreading the word to you guys!
niczoom
Posted on: May 6th, 2010 at 02:30
Same issue as as tranj1 above, Launches, bar fills, planet is shown then crash. Win 7 x64.
For all 3 of you: please download the latest crack (v9.4.0) and try it with that!
restorer
Posted on: May 6th, 2010 at 03:09
Same issue as niczoom and tranj1… exactly the same
Urm, it seems to be a real issue. I will notify Demon about it
Do you run as administrator? do you have the minimal system requirements? did the old crack work for you?
Old crack worked perfectly for me, no errors whatsover, I can run sc2 on high so yes i meet the minimal requirements. I also run as admin. Problem still exists.
Use the new version i uploaded, v9.4.0 is the newest, i wrongly named the previous download!
Thanks, works perfectly now, no errors.

The launcher updates repeatedly and I cannot get it to stop. It gave me an error once, but the window closed before I could read it. So then it goes back to updating again immediately after it finishes.
it does several updates: just leave it be for a while, go for a walk or drive around for an hour or so. when you come back it will be done. every time is a slightly different update, check your game folder!

weird. it worked yesterday! now it says “unable to open map”
Try the latest version of the crack!

Posted on: May 6th, 2010 at 20:51
This may not be a related issue to the above, but when I run the launcher and the game loads, my computer screen comes up blank saying “Input Not Supported.”
I don’t mean to be an amateur about this but am I doing something wrong?
Try the latest version (9.4.0 beta)
me too i dont know what to do help!

when i am updating, at patch 10 it says “your computer is hiding behind a firewall”
so i disabled mcafee completley and killed it, and it still wont work.
any idea on what to do ?
have the firewall thing but i am still updating it thought
so, the firewall thing doesnt effect the patch?
no i’m playing right now
keep it downloading, it will come off
you have to shut down all the firewall , i shut down all the fire wall and work perfect for me

i think it is the right folder, rite?
Yes it is
“C:\Program Files\StarCraft II Beta\SC2ALLin1\SC2ALLin1.exe”
Why it still said “file was not found”?
do u have any ideas?
Oh now i have solve this problem by lunch SC2Allin1 as administrator.

Demon, do you plan on making a crack for Starcraft 2 the game, not the beta??
When the real game is released a crack will most certainly be developed!
sweet. really appreciate it, how long do you think it will take for you to release a working crack?
No idea tbh…

Posted on: May 8th, 2010 at 08:58
Hey I am getting a error message from SC2ALLin1 saying, “I can’t read this map! If its a custom made map by you, you must have correct player properties, start locations etc. to be recognized as a compatible melee map!”—I never made any maps, all I have done is follow the instructions on here. Unless I have missed something??? It also gives another error message right after, “Could not find file Gamestrings.txt” Any suggestions?
Try a different map, the map your trying to play is most likely not compatible
your antivirus program is probably blocking a file named something like mympq.exe, just restore the file and you should be good
Thanks Demon I appreciate the suggestion. But the problem was actually resolved from sturmguy98′s solution. Lol… Thanks a lot sturmguy98, it works perfectly now!
I having the same problem as maverick9, and I dont even find file mympq.exe, doing everything I can but nothing helps, what to do??
paulvdoan
Posted on: May 8th, 2010 at 12:00
The Starcraft II Editor will not recognize any of the maps. I tried opening up some downloaded Starcraft II maps, but the editor won’t see any of the maps. I also tried right clicking the map file and “open with” the editor, but that won’t work either.
Does the map editor work for you?

Hey demon… I can play the game perfectly fine but there’s just one huge problem. It seems “laggy” throughout the game and Im not even using the internet. The units don’t move very smoothly; there is a delay in the way they move. And sometimes, it would say “Please close other applications to improve performance” and yet I closed all other application and still it would display so. I tried lowering down the graphics quality but still the performance is still slow. I don’t know if it’s the computer/video card, but it’s been bugging me. Can you please help? This is the only problem i’ve got. Thank you.
Does your pc have the minimal system requirements? i think it doenst…

Hello. I can’t make the SC2 all in one v9.4.0 (downloaded 5 minutes ago) to open some game replays which are downloaded from http://www.gamereplays.org like TvZ Top Platinum back and forth. I have the map which is from official pack. Any ideea why is not working ? I have also tried the modified battlenet and cache thing also not working ….. thanks.
Please view the new part about replays in the article, you need the latest cache files!
Thanx, I saw now there is a link to updated cache files for patch 11 but the link is not working ?
Updated the link, it should work now

I’m from germany, is it a problem when i download the client from this page ? do i need to download the deDE beta client or can i play with this one?
You should be fine if you download this client. It might be different however if you buy the game. Then you’d have to use the EU one.

i want to update on the newest version because i got a beta key and i tried to reinstall the game 6 times..
Ask on the official website (you got a beta key anyway).
if it doesnt update (stops) because your internet connection is to slow there is nothing we can do to help you at the moment…
Im sorry YOU HAVE A FREAKEN BETA KEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE thanks

Thanks again for the awesome all new beta launcher!!
Anyone knows any links which would allow me to download the Starcraft II Beta patches? I don’t really have internet at home… so I can’t update my Starcraft II Beta to the latest patch. Therefore, I hope there’s some external links that could enable me to download the latest patch, so I could download it from my office.. Thanks alot~
It is not possible to download the patches seperately… you really have to update true the beta client.

Help! I think I’m close to this but there are a few things I don’t get. Firstly, where exactly do I have to extract the crack? Where exactly do I have to place the installer part of the crack? I’m just so confused and it’s not working. Thanks for your help!
For the crack. You dont need to extract it anywhere. Just have it on your desktop because the crack will be the launcher for the game.

Ok, ok, sorry for the multiple posts, now my only problem is when i click ‘launch’, a msg pops up ‘file not found’. Otherwise, the maps are recognised and I extracted the stuff. Any ideas? Thanks!
I dont understand what you mean here… please explain (oh btw: next time press the nice big [reply to this comment] button
)
Ok, I got it working. Thanks a lot Demon!
How did you solve it?? I’m having the same problem as you now!!

hi.
i followed the instruction and installed SC2 and the ALLin1 v9.4.0
now my problem is that when press launch from ALLin1, launcher comes out and then disappears.
I put in on Administrator, I reinstalled it, re-downloaded it, but still same problem.
i found this at Launcher file.
03:44:36.4018 Launcher version 2.1.2.1406
03:44:38.0017 Failed while patching. Command was ‘download sc2-2.1.2.1406-2.1.2.1533-x86-Win-enUS-tools.torrent’.
03:44:38.0018 Failed to run Downloader from ‘sc2-2.1.2.1406-2.1.2.1533-x86-Win-enUS-tools-component-dl’.
03:44:38.0018 Unable to download update(s) from Battle.net.
pls help. thanks.
You cant update… were you able to update before?
Did upload the maps into ur all in 1 program silly question but i have too know also did you download starcraft 2 over Utorrent or sumother torrent becuase sometimes other torrents stuff up the download and give errors coz it makes it not download sum files im not 100% sure bout that but maybe just maybe thats why you have erreros with launcher and since it says ..03:44:38.0017 Failed while patching. Command was ‘download sc2-2.1.2.1406-2.1.2.1533-x86-Win-enUS-tools.torrent’.
TORRENT why would enUS-tools.torrent come up ? maybe becuase ur torrent is crap ?.Now im not pro at this sorta stuff but maybe try reinstall the game with Utorrent unless you already have my 2nd best bet would be delete everything thats got to do with starcraft 2 evan ur all in 1 program then reinstall everything and the game over utorrent.

Yeh I figured out a really weird yet maybe helpful thing after u fully install the game and the crack and all the other extras if the loader doesnt work or when u click launch and the load gets the near done then suddenly stops all you do is restart you computer and also the game sumtimes isnt ganan wona work if you have other programs on or if say u turn on ur msn for like afew mins then try to play the game it doesnt load at all.I hope it helps becuase it helped me the 1st few times now every time i want to play but it doesnt wona work just restart my computer and for some reason the game works again its strange.
GreeLee
Posted on: May 11th, 2010 at 09:52
And also somtimes if you launch the game thats probs cause you didnt load a map or dont evan have any maps currently loaded in ur crack you know the All in 1 program
ERRRM sorry what i ment was when u use the all in 1 program to start the game and it doesnt start thats cause u didnt load a map or dont evan have any maps on the program
Thanks for sharing

add the starcraft 2 beta client to your trusted applications list in your firewall(s)

Is there an AI that will keep attacking?.. the hard one I have now will stop after a few waves.
Wew..
U’re searching for a more aggressive AI.
And I’m searching for a way so that the AI don’t double their mineral & gas.
I figure that we can use “Starcrack AI pack (easy edition) (v7.0)”
But it’s no use for the patch above 5 or so..
I have also edit the Aidifficulty.galaxy but still no use.
Any other solution guys?
No wonder they build so damn fast… but they quit after a few massive attacks… last game I beat the protos with a group of marines cause they had almost the entire map but would not defend or attack… eventually they just stopped rebuilding.
yes..
they eventually stop attacking. This is what makes the AI not that scary.
But, the way they double their chips (mineral & gas) is still annoy me. Even the easiest level still got this effect i guess. It’s another story if the hardest AI level got this effect.
So, still no clue how to mod this one?
For me, the way they double their chips is giving an unreal experience/combat
and give trouble to at the beginning T_T
Im still looking into it, problem is that this crack has the AI included…

Posted on: May 14th, 2010 at 10:02
AHAH yeh the AI are crazy in medium they get there building and units so fast by the time i rush 1 barracks and 2 marines or protoss and zerg for that matter they already have a army of roaches or stalkers and zealots or marines and maruaders.Iv tryed so many diffrent builds and non are that good the only way iv stopped medium and over AI is where i rush collososs or really really fast roaches or stalkers with blink skill but mainly u need to scout whoever ur vsing if u just random ur enemy so u can see what they got so far but i just always rush barracks/warpgate/spawning pool and get any range type units apart from that the AI always beats you unless u counter really good anyways good talk

Oh one more thing for this whole crack/hack sc2 we all have auhh does it just offer YOU vs computer/AI or is there missions and lan im not sure so just wanted too ask thats all.Coz after i downloaded this over utorrent and checked that the game works which it does i gave my friend the site too download off too and he was asking me if lan works or missions.So here i am asking anyone who knows thanks.

Hi there! I’m having a problem with the crack. I follow all the steps described here but when I press the “launch” button my screen turns black and all I see is the cursor, nothing else. Firstly I thought that the game was loading or something but no, I waited for several minutes and nothing happened. Please, help me!
Does your pc have the minimal system requirements?
My PC has 1GB of ram memory and a ATI Radeon HD 3400 Series (512 MB), so I think that’s not the problem. By the way, since I wasn’t able to run the new crack, I downloaded and tried the old one and it works perfectly. But anyway I would like to be able to run the new one so if you could suggest me something else I would appreciate it. Thanks.
I had the same problem black screen with cursor on. Turned out the update function was being blocked and (something weird)m after i turned off peerblock and made sure my firewall wasn’t blocking the blizzard updater (I turned off both at the same time, didn’t think to check which one it was), it updated properly, and afterwards, it played perfectly with the all in one. Not sure you have the same problem, but the symptoms you describe are exactly what happened to me.
Thanks cookiemonster. The truth is that I’ve never been able to update. Not a single time. The updater starts downloading some files (I can watch its activity through my firewall program) but after some time and amount of information downloaded (usually 1 or 2 MB) it stops, closes the connection and the Play button activates in the main interface. So I guess that’s the problem, like it was happening to you, I can’t update. I think I’ll have to keep using the old crack; after all, it works fine for me.
Thanks again for your answer.
Where did u find the old versions ??? i cant update cuz i dont have any bandwidth left, please give me a link, i also get the black screen

I’ve downloaded the patch 12 a few times already, and it just keeps repeating. Anyone know how to fix this?
I was thinking the same thing when I was downloading. It shows the updates for patch 12, but is not actually downloading it. It has to download atleast 20 patches before version 12. I watched the update bar go to 100% that many times. Be patient and it will complete.
you download new builds, and not every build means a new version it goes like
11.1
11.1.1
11.1.5
11.2.1
and on and on, so yes it can take a while!

I’m having a problem with installing the All-in-One User Interface. When I attempt to run the All-in-One installer, I’m told it is not a valid Win32 application.
- I’m running a cracked Windows 7 (32 bit), which comes with .Net Framework 3.5 built in
- I’ve tried installing .Net Framework 3.5 and it told me I needed to activate it through my Program Features in the control panel
- I’ve activated the .Net Frameworks like I was told, but it hasn’t solved the problem
- I’ve tried to install .Net Framework 4 but it failed to install
- I’ve tried running the All-in-One installer as an administrator, and with different compatibility modes, without success
- I’ve tried looking for Windows updates that update my .Net Framework, but couldn’t find any
The Starcraft II Beta worked fine when I had a much earlier version of the Beta client and was using a different launcher (I believe it was the one from the older cracked Starcraft II Beta guide)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Does it give you any specific error messages? it should work (atleast it gives so many less people errors than the previous crack we provided and since that worked for you…)
Have you tried redownloading the crack? and did you make sure you checked the “Run this program as a administrator” checkbox in the properties (properties > compatibility) of the launcher?
Thanks for the reply Demon, but I tried again last night (without even running it as an administrator) and it magically worked!
great!

I having problems playing the game with AI. Everything launches/installed fine but the instant I start a game it tells me that I’ve won. This is because no AI’s a present in the game and I’m the sole palyer. Can anyone help me with this?
Is this with EVERY map? or with one?

I don’t think its possible since the ALLin1 launcher launches the actual beta client but just bypasses the login screen.

My game works perfectly fine. My recent replays work fine, I just can’t get replays i download to work. I have downloaded the patch 11 cache files and put them in the folder specified and every time i try to play a replay it either goes to a blank screen with my mouse pointer on it, and just sits there till i forcibly close the program .. or it says “unable to open replay” error after loading up. What is the problem? Did I do something wrong?
I’m having problems playing the game with AI. Everything launches/installed fine but the instant I start a game it tells me that I’ve won. This is because no AI’s are present in the game and I’m the sole palyer. Can anyone you or anyone help me with this?
I think the problem may lie within the maps but i’ve downloaded the 7 official ones that are from the link above. However, when I launch the allin1 client and get to choose the starting locations (1, 2, 3, 4 etc.) I don’t get to see which part on the map these locations are!
Can you try the latest 2 map packs we provide? those should work for sure!
if those work, and others have similair problems i will remove the links to the older maps…
Replays often give errors… dont know why… i recommend trying different replays because most work…

btw I have a question.. as it was patching up I noticed that each patch creates its folders on /version folder.. as it creates a folder an 800 mb file was placed inside.. and the size was increasing as it updates
my question is is it safe to delete those old patch folder and keep the recent one to save 6 gb of my space?.. i suppose the recent one was the only one needed and the things in the updates folder
ya i think its safe enough to delete previous data.. i deleted few myself.. keep last 2 to 3 to be just in case
thanks i’ll experiment first i’ll move the old base**** folder to another and sees that if the game still work

Need help…i did it all as the web says and when I click the “launch” button it starts the sc2 beta launcher and starts to dl a “new patch”…it says “no problemn detected”, then it says “preparing to apply the new patch” and the sc2 shuts down…i onle remains the SC2allin1 opened…and everytime i click launch goes all over the same shit again.
I tried to reinstalling the whole thing and carefully follow the steps, but nothing…the same thing still happens…
In the version folder that is located in the SC2 installation folder i have 3 sub-folders:
- Base13891
- Base14093
- Shaders852121
Please help me!
Hmmm did you block internet access to the starcraft II beta client? because obviously it needs that to patch…
nope…internet access granted…it also asked if i want to grant permission (twice) and i clicked “always”
found out what the problem is…if you click “ctrl+alt+supr”, in process you can see the “BlizzardDownloader.exe” and when it finishes then it starts the “Blizzard Updater.exe”…i noticed that Blizzard Updater.exe doesnt close by it self so i have to do it manually and then it continues to dl the next patch…
any idea of how i can fix it?

I’m getting a bit of a weird problem. Installed everything fine first time. Beta installed fine, took about 2 hours for all the updates to finish downloading. Installed the Allinone application in its default location no problem. Started up the App, pointed it to maps, chose a map, starting race so on and so forth yada yada, played a game for about 5 minutes to test it out, all worked fine. Went to bed as it was about 7 am by that time (another story) got up today and went to play it and it doesn’t want to…
The ‘Allinone’ launcher loads up and all the menus work within the app, when i go to launch the actual game the ‘starcraft II Beta’ little splash screen comes up in the middle of the screen and my CPU kicks into action, the first core runs at about 85/90%, the starcraft II beta process also runs but the computer doesn’t state that the beta’s .exe is running. (if i set the beta client to run as administrator it does but in a ‘non responsive state’.)
The computer stays in this state indefinitely (re: the game doesn’t load up at all). If i click the little splash screen beta client logo in the middle of the screen it ‘whites out’ and i am prompted to either close the application or wait for it to respond. Waiting does nothing.
I have tried completely removing all traces of both the ‘installed’ beta application and the installation of the allinone application. I have also removed the relevant registry entries after un-installation of both using a non intrusive registry cleaner.
After re-booting the computer i have re-installed first the beta client, to which the client ‘doesn’t’ download the updates this time, causing me to think that the patch updates have been installed somewhere on the computer other than the default installation directory that isn’t anywhere in the AppData subdirectory, nor the Users subdirectory as i have manually removed all relevant traces already, where i did not spot any easily noticable ‘patch’ update looking files/folders. I may be overlooking these though.
After a complete re-installation of all i need to i have tried to boot up the beta client itself, to which it does boot up and prompts me to input battle.net account details, which is fine, this shows me the client actually boots past the initial splash screen.
When trying to run the client through the allinone application i am given the same issue that caused me to re-install the client. After trying to run the game through the allinone application, trying to run the beta client from its own .exe, (that worked after a fresh install before i started up the allinone application for the first time again), no longer works, this only happens ‘after’ i have tried to boot it up through the allinone application.
so now the game no longer boots up and becomes ‘non responsive’ no matter how i try to boot it up, allthough it worked the first time before the allinone application tried to speak to it.
I believe i require some technical help to overcome this issue. Please review my situation as stated in this message and provide any possible technical advice. Thanks!
P.S. if it helps, my system installation directory is in a partition named “H:”, games i install is in a separate partition named “C:”. So the ‘default’ installation directory for the allinone application automatically installs to “H:\program files”. The game installs to “C:\~Installed_Games~\starcraft II Beta”.
I have never had any problems with this setup before.
Update: The game client seems to want to boot up through the allinone app now. Its currently re-downloading the patches. I’ll see how this turns out and report back when its finished.
seems to be working now. Odd
Hmmm strange… but its working now so thats good! let us know when the problem reoccurs

I stopped the patching at version 0.7.0.14356 (i get pissed off at blizzard for their stupid patching system and Bnet support, ran the Allin1, select my map folder, select the map to play, choose my race, difficulty, and launch… sends me to the patch download window again… i disconnect internet, run Allin1, launch game, bar fills up, Saturn like planet appears and immediately crashes… i read almost all comments and though i see that those with the same problem found a solution it was a on previous versions of the game.
If somebody could instruct me i would be pleased.

Posted on: June 6th, 2010 at 16:22
Ok i eliminated Allin1 and i will finish patching… i used ccleaner to get rid of registered information… once the game has patch to 15 i will reinstall allin1 and retry…
Just wanted to update…

I downloaded the all-in-one file, but it’s not extractable; it’s not in zip format. So I don’t know how to go on from step 6 onwards. No installer pops up, and hence no crack, and I can’t play the game. ) :
You must download http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=333325FD-AE52-4E35-B531-508D977D32A6&displaylang=en NetFramework 3.5 to run that file… you can also try to modify the name by erasing .6 from the name of the file and adding .exe
Oh thanks. (:
Run the executable (.exe), its no longer zipped

Hi guys, I just followed step 1-6, downloaded everything from patch1-16, then tried launching….
but then here comes the blizzard launcher cycling over and over with “Preparing to download new patch” “Writing interface data into blahblah” “Migrating miscellaneous data into patch.SC2Archive” … and it keeps adding whatnot data into the folder where I installed SC2… I hope you could give me some tips on how to make this thing work from that point >_<
btw “StarCraft II Beta — Patch 15 (version 0.17.0.15623)…” this is what comes up in the patch downloader… and it doesn’t go ANYWHERE past that T___T Have I forgot to download something? or is SC2 build 15263 no longer working….? Can’t it be played offline? Hope I didn’t waste my time…

I can still play. I don’t know why its not letting some of you play.
I’m wondering if there’s any other AI packs that don’t have a stupidly high spawn rate. i’m finding playing against this AI even on easy really hard, I’m new to starcraft but i’ve got down getting spawns out as fast as possible using a build order practice map i found, but the AI still has loads more enemies than me when i try to push at them. Turtling doesn’t seem to work either. If the idea is to be able t oout build your enemy by agroing their econ while expanding yours, how can you have more enemies than the AI if they have a blatant hack to spawn faster than you can/have min/gas income boost? Even turtling to tech up to enemies that are stronger then theirs doesn’t seem to work as you havn’t got enough higher tech to counter their weaker enemies by the time they push. I keep getting totally rinsed.
This AI isn’t ‘noob’ friendly. I’ve tried playing on ‘blizzard very easy’ but thats a fuckin push over and the jump from ‘blizzard very easy’ to ‘starcrack easy’ AI is soooo much of a leap in difficulty due to the hacks the starcraft AI have in terms of min/gas boost and/or spawn rate.
Are there any different ‘noob friendly’ AI packs?
Im not trying to put you down or presume or anything… ive been playing the AI on hard mode… ive won a few times and yes its so freaking powerful… Insane is simply out of the league, now if you want something easier to lets say have more fun? id say you look for some older AI files since they say those hardly attacked and developed… i havent tried medium or easy difficulty so maybe they are pretty much hacked too making them hard even though they say their “easy”… Anyway if what you want is to get better let the machine beat the crap out of you… and a piece of advice would be to try to rush and keep the preasure… i really dont think there is anyproblem with the AI…
To be fair you’re right. It was purely down to my noobishness. I’ve been pushing at it and really paying attention to my strategies and where i’ve been going wrong. I’ve also been researching into decent Zerg strategies for a few days and really expanded my overall understanding of the game mechanics. I’ve actually won a few games now. As i only play Zerg (for now) i didn’t understand how important aggressively expanding and macroing up a really robust economy was.
I’ve got a starting build order up really tight and have begun to learn which units counter which other units and have also (i think this is by far the most important) developed a hotkey system for units and buildings. Things like having all hatcheries on one hotkey so you can spam units from each without having to manually click round the map to your hatcheries and also place rally points on the fly for strategic purposes. Also having a queen at each hatchery hotkeyed up to and along with ‘that’ hatchery so you can ‘key,key,V,Click’, ive got this down to be able to keep the larva spawn flow really high. Qhich i believe is a key zerg strat… lots of expendable ‘meat shields’ with the key counter units at back microing specific enemies. Of course this is why the huge econ is important.
So yeh, the big problem for me i guess was not being able to multitask that well and not understanding Zerg enough to play effectively.
The last few games i’ve played have been really fun, when you know you have the upper hand and are able to control the flow of the game enough to get real time experience in dealing with strategic reaction to the enemy and microing/multitasking/macroing e.t.c.
You are right, theres nothing wrong with the AI, just me being a noob.
What is good is that you become better at what you want…

Even after i put the Ai in the correct folder and do all that right, the comps still suck and hardly build anything. even on insane difficulty. im positive i did everything right, just the AI seems like its bugged for some reason. any help?
Erase Allin1 from where it was unpacked, by default C:\Archivos de programa\StarCraft II Beta, let the SC2 beta patch, once patched unpack the Allin1 file again, leave it in its default directory, run the program. For what i read above i assume you have downloaded maps, but still i would recommend you download these (http://www.setupswarm.com/download/SC2-Maps-Patch10OfficialMaps1.rar). Extract them in the default directory (C:\Documents and Settings\dax\Mis documentos\StarCraft II Beta\Maps), select one of these maps in the SC2Allin1 launcher. Make sure you have chosen the right path for the maps folder, if not choose the option “Add maps from folder” and add those maps… now you should select difficulty, and game settings… choose max difficulty just to make sure its working properly… reply if this worked…
I already had everything you said, ex. i had the beta patched and i already had the maps and everything, but when i deleted the allin1 and re-unpacked it in the same location, the ai worked fine. So thanks a bunch Dax! really appreciate it.

Its working great with me now thnx for the crack.
anyways is there going to be any support to custom maps (the ones that arent like blizzards for example tower defense hero defence etc.)
Most likely, not in this launcher but in the official game! (and cracked versions of the official game
)
oh srry looks like i was wrong again
, custom maps do work on the launcher, u just need to use the option in game type “use map settings” inorder for custom maps to work.
i cant stop playing it lol,
wow custom maps are so much fun
try out a map called hex’d
i noticed now in the campaign maps when one of the character speak it actually speaks instead of subtitles, map develepors now can add their own voice acting in the map, which is pretty cool.

Thanks

“We are currently unable to process replays that are newer than patch 8. No timeline for for a fix as of yet.”.
Blizzard seems to have a bug in the game about watching replays. I can get some to work and others don’t. None of mine work, but one with Sen in it seemed to work.

Posted on: June 11th, 2010 at 19:41
Ok another question… How come you can go around login secutrity, input the information for an AI faking what supposedly would be an actual player with an iinternet input, and not being able to actually allow another player, lan, to make their input, instead of the AI?
Id appreaciate an answer…
it works differently… if you want to crack the pvp system you need to “rebuild” battlenet 2.0 which is like nearly impossible and not worth the effort while the game has not been released jet…
I know little about programming… but… the crack already has an input (AI) that somehow cheats the game into believing its actually a player… would it not be possible to allow the control of the AI to another pc user? I imagine there would be sync problems, but im not really sure…
Thanks for the answer…
Well in fact the problem is the connection part… you need to set up the connection between the players. That part is simply impossible at the moment…

I cannot understand how “Starcrack AI pack (cheating edition) (v7.0)” works. it says to unpack the files in a specific directory and then modify the difficulty by editing a galaxy file.. but how do i select it from the launcher ?
I think that is the way you had to do it in some old crack… now you just download the Allin1 SC2 and you dont have tod o anything with specific files…
Im sorry, this is currently not possible

Do i need to patch manually (downloading patch without blizzard updater) to patch 15 to watch replay from that patch or is there another way ?
Thanks in advance !
Watching replay’s created after patch 8 is impossible… not sure why.

Whats with the huge difference between Hard and Insane AI? I’ve got to a point now where i can right from the off contain Hard AI into its base and take down any of the beginnings of expos that they might be trying to put up while massing units from taking over the map with various expos and run in for the rape.
When it comes to Insane AI even with a 6 pool ( I play Zerg) they get their natural up so frickin fast and even WITH a fast expo they’ve got more units than i can make before i can make enough to counter them so they push off any attack i might try on their expo, even when i’m microing and prioritising units to help with the agro push on the expo, i can’t take down the natural and am forced to push back more defensively and protect my expos, which they inevitably take down as their unit production is loads more than mine even if i have map majority!
So i’m at the point where Hard AI is not fun as its to easy and Insane is not fun as its WAY to hard….
Is there any plans of making an AI addon that doesn’t have blatant resource hacks and crazy quick unit production?
Insane is doable… I havent been able to outwin it yet but i can feel its doable… i could mass a little rush on it and have some preasure over it…
The Insane, i feel, does a ton of microing like burrowing each drone that is weak one by one when i try a rush.
What you can also try is to give yourself a little bit more resources.
I think the problem is not being able to out produce untis. My income always piles up to some serious degree, on hard i have over 11,000 minerals by the time i’ve beaten the AI. On insane it seems a simple case that i canno’t produce units quick enough. Which means i may have to double hatch at each expo. But the n isn’t that moving outside of realistic tactics i would deploy against RL players? My belief of the allinone crack is a means to play Starcraft 2 to practice untill the live game come out.
I know there are always going to be limitations when using AI but i guess this is my gripe, that through playing against the AI i am having to resort to strategies that cannot really be transfered into RL situations/matches.
But maybe i’m just being a bit to anal about it lol. Sick game non the less and i AM really enjoying playing it.
The Crack is made so we can play… remembver that this is not a legitimate way of playing but rather a “crack”, and it wasnt developed by the same company as SC2 was, as far as we know, therefore you should not ask too much out of it be gratefu that you are being able to play even after the Beta has been shut down, and the fact that you couldnt get a beta key from starters…
I dont think that the computer has any hack that makes it over produce… try playing team and sharing your resources with one of the computers in insane, see how much resources it starts with and see how it develops…
I’m sorry if i came across inconsiderate in my post. I in no way meant for that to happen. I am totally greatful of being able to play when the beta client is down. The only reason i don’t have a beta key is i pre-ordered to late and missed on the keys being given out, non the less i do have a copy pre-ordered and am waiting diligently for it to be released.
I totally agree with what you are saying and do see where i may have been perceived to be out of line in what i said. The point i was trying to make is simply that i find the difficulty gap between the hard and insane AI levels considerably larger than the gaps between the easy, medium and hard AI levels.
I have read in various places i’m sure, that the Insane AI does have a resource hack and a map hack so the units know exactly where u are at all times and what expos you have at all times. I presume the unrealistic production of units is due to the resource hack by-proxy. I also agree that the Insane AI administers an insane amount of microing, i have noticed that in man game against Insane, which i have yet to win any of.
It sure is a challenge!
Its obvious you appreciate the hard work… now for the insane mode just try and play it yourself with more resources… or let the Hard AI attack you until you can hold all of its attacks…
How do i get this HARD AI??

I did what the instructions read … it lauches the update window evertime and keeps repeating the blizzard update 15 download, over and over . Allin1 just launches the update window to do the same thing and manually installing the patch 15 doesnt stop this . Frustrated any help or should
I just wait for a proper game with a proper crack ?
This is normal it isn’t updating just patch 15 from patch 14. Its updating ‘to’ patch 15 from patch 7 or 8 which is the beta client download on this page. This crack ‘is’ legit and works, i have been using it for ages now.
When you first install it it ‘does’ takes a long time to fully patch, leave it to finish, it may even take a few hours. This is normal.
Do not try and manually install patch 15 as you won’t have the large amount of previous patches from 7 or 8 through to patch 14 for patch 15 to work over the top of.
Uninstall everything as you tried to patch a later patch over the top of an incomplete update. Start from scratch and have patience in the updater.
You can run the update by either opening the Beta client as is. Or by running the allinone crack, which simply opens the actual beta client anyway. Both routes lead to the same update process using the same client.
Have patience and have fun once its done. Trust in the many people that are using this crack and are playing the client through the allinone launcher.

Guys i have lil problem ive done step 1,2,3,4,5,6 but i cant do the 7 step. i have installed the SC2ALLin1_setup966 to the recommended folder [that is : C:\Program Files\Starcraft II BetaSC2ALLin1].
Then ive downoaded tha maps from this site provided and put them into the folder called: C:\Users\Alan Kovac\Documents\StarCraft II Beta\Maps
Then i want start the SC2ALLin1 shortcut on my desktop, but when i start it messege will appear :
Cant load your settings! You may have deleted my default directories! Delete the settings file and retry, or reinstall tha application!
Then i click ok button and then another messege appears:
I cant read this map! If its a custom made ma by you, you must have correct player properties, start locations etc, to be recognised as a compatible meleemap!
again i click ok button, and another messege saying:
Acces to the path C:\Program Files\Starcraft II Beta\SCALLin1\lastmap.s2ma is denied.
Then it crashes…
So little help guys?
If you are using vista or wondows 7, which it looks like you are you ‘have’ to start the allinone application as an administrator. Also try running it in compatibility mode for xp (or vista if you are running windows 7, if that doesn’t work then try compatibility with xp).
Also remove the maps from the folder you added them to and use the ‘add maps’ button in the allinone launcher application. I’m not saying this will fix your maps issue, but along with allowing the launcher access to your programs sub-folder directories, it should be able to ‘properly’ access the maps. I like to add the maps using the buttons as the launcher then automatically places the maps exactly where it is already hard coded to read them ‘from’. If you place them manually there is always that margin of expect-able human error.
Try these steps, if they still don’t work. Uninstall the launcher and re-install by running the installation wizard with administrator privileges (you should have done this anyway). If non of these steps help please come back and some one with a more technical understanding of what may be going on can help you (I’m only a user of this application).
Good luck!

Glad its working out for you Shikamaru
Also remember to let the client run with administrator rights if you are using windows 7 or vista, and if you encounter any problems with the launcher try running it in compatibility mode for xp (try both vista and xp compat modes if you are using windows 7)
If you have any further issues please leave a reply to this comment and someone will be sure to help you.

I have the same problem using the StarCrack Allin1 Launcher. Running on a vista with specs that meet the requirements for the beta. Installed following instructions above. Tried re-installing, running in safe mode, turning off anti-virus and firewall. No Luck.
I did however get it to load successfully using Lazy Launcher v2.0:
http://www.sc2win.com/starcraft-2-downloads/lazy-launcher-v2-0-download/
Might work for you guys?
thanks for the suggestion, but mine still fails.
The problem I am having is because I had to manually download all the patches.
Since the beta is down, when I downloaded the sc2 beta, the patches didn’t start automatically. Somehow, I am missing something important, so that when I start the game using either the lazyLauncher or allinone, I see the loading screen, but the loading bar doesn’t change at all. After a few seconds, the error report pops up with some “internal battle.net error”. Any suggestions on what I can do?
Thanks in advance.
Hej,
I used lazylauncher, and i could actually run the game.
But when im about to begin, it says; YOU ARE VICTORIOUS..
I can play, but there’s no enemy.. any ideas?
Well Lazy Launcher does work. And to Downie, you need a map with AI built into it. The map you have is just an empty map with no AI. An AI is basically a computer player.
But how do i put a AI in, i just copied some AI file into the main folder, but the problem stays ..

I think that Starcraft 2 beta program is not working properly. I tried to run it and the screen got stuck with a starcraft 2 logo.
Do you mean the little SCII logo in the middle of the screen? This happens to me sometimes. Its a bit weird. I just go into task manager and kill the process then restart the app.
Try that see if it works.

hey, ive done everything you mentioned above in regards to the installation and cracking of the game.. however, when i open SC2. it just says there that i need an account for battle.net… i just wanna play custom game where i can verse AI.. how can i do that? there seems no option to go to custom game.
are you opening the Beta Launcher? cause you dont open that. you open the All-In-One interface and choose your options and it it bypasses the log in screen. it shouldnt say you need an account.
i did open the all-in-one.. and it goes black when i click play after choosing my race etc etc… however.. i downloaded the SC2 beta launcher.. and that one worked just fine… thats the old crack.. not the re cracked..

Yes it seems I have the same black screen issue. Installed the Beta client. Executed the beta client. No patches come down. The music is wonderful though… takes me back. Downloaded and installed the all-in-one interface and loaded all AI and Maps into it. Launch the AIO interface setup a game, when it tries to run I see a StarCraftII splash screen, then it goes black only showing the mouse pointer. I had client ver 13 so I upgraded to 14, then 15 then 16. All show same problem. I think the root of the problem is that the updater coming off Blizzard is not functioning and some component must be missing… please assist. Would love to see this game….
I’ve got exactly the same problem, anyone got a solution?
i’m dying to play this game, cm on!

Hej guys,
I got this problem, and i dont know how to fix it.
I downloaded the file, the all-in-one:
•Starcraft II – All in One – v9.6.6 (12.5 MiB, 3,095 hits) – Registration required.
Then when i extract it, by naming it .RAR i dont get any install folder.. Only thing with .exe is SC2ALLin1.exe and i cant install anything there, only launch. And when i launch, i just get a black screen with a cursor.
Second problem, if i run the BETA, it does not patch. And i dont know how to manually update because there are so many patches at the given site,
Please help me,
thanks in advance,
You made a mistake, you don’t name it .rar, you name it .exe
It should start as .6 which you change to .exe and when you run it it will extract and install and give you the required files.
As for the patches and black screen it is because there is something wrong with Blizzards’ servers or the crack, we just have to wait for them to be fixed.

I’m not sure wether this may be effecting people trying to install the beta client as of now as allot more people seem to be having issues getting this to work.
I personally have no issues getting it to work, but i ‘have’ noticed it now (since the server has gone down) hangs for quite a while at the very beginning when the SCII logo appears on screen. Though if i just leave the computer to do its thing the game ‘does’ start after a few minutes. Checking in task manager does show the Client process running and taking up processing space and the beta client shows as ‘active’ in the programs window.
I believe there is some form of issue with the client trying to talk to the beta server and not getting a response which is causing the noticeable delay in the game starting.

OK Figured it out – two things – downloaded the 9.7.7 All in one from http://sc2.nibbits.com/assets/starcrack-allin1/. Also it looks like the patches I downloaded and put into the updates folder never got applied. Even though the folder gets deleted.
Check out the link below – it shows you how to point your client to the EU servers for updates they are still up. Only problem is that after every patch this gets reset to the US. So the work-around I came up with is below.
http://sc2.nibbits.com/forums/29/view/828/regarding-latest-us-blackscreens-and-very-slow-loading-times-do-not-open-topics-read-here
This option has you create a file in the support directory called realmlist.stf and put the following line in it:
set patchlist eu-beta.patch.battle.net:1120/patch
This will work but after every patch this gets reset which I dont like and will make the process take for ever – even setting permissions to read-only only makes patch installs fail.
Work around – update your hosts file in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc. Add the following line:
213.248.127.133 us-beta.patch.battle.net
Save the file. Run starcraft II it should now be able to pull updates from the Europe servers without modifying the realmlist.stf file and it will happen automatically.
213.248.127.133 is the IP address of the Europe servers.
Am playing the game now. Hope this helps some peeps.
can u explain it more noobish?
I dont understand ^^
Yea I understand what you’re saying but I’m a bit confused where to put the line specifically. As in what file and where would the location of that file be?
That’s an awesome find though and should save some people some time!
I did exactly what you said.
1) Fresh Install
2) Create realm.stf with the correct line.
3) Boot up SC2 and it auto-patch itself. In fact it doesn’t do anything! =\
Okay I can’t find the system 32 folder on win7? I feel like I this is so simple….
Found exactly where to put it on my desktop but thats win xp sp3.

Posted on: June 30th, 2010 at 23:20
Got everything all set up, maps, AI, cache, etc.
My first question is, I’ve never seen a patch or downloading update window and all I did was download the client from the torrent so I know it’s not up to date.
Second, When I hit launch after selecting all the options I choose all I get is a black screen and a starcraft mouse on the screen. Which I have to task manager to get out of the end the program. Any fixes or ideas?

I don’t believe it means you don’t meet requirements because I know my system has far above the minimum and I’m getting the same error.
well darn this sucks got my hopes up. thought i was going to get some sc2 action today. oh well i guess ill wait for the actual game to come out or someone to post a fix/reason for this.

alright for anyone looking how to force patch, heres what you need to do. First all you will need all patch files. which you can download from here http://forums.battle.net/thread.html?topicId=25170841374&postId=251683269625&sid=5000#0 . then to apply these patch you will need to patch then from First File to Last File in each folder. To do this you with need need to copy the file from the update folder that you downloaded. then rename the file sc2-patch.MPQ , then run the blizzard updater . It should patch that single file to the game . then simply detele the sc2-patch.MPQ file and then do the same with the rest of the files within the update folder. Repeat this with each patch you download.
Hope this help some of you. Sorry if i didnt make it very clear but it worked for me..
Make sure you do them all in order! or it will not work
p.s. sorry for much spelling errors its really late and im tired..
I have done this all the way to patch 16 but I end up with a splash screen that doesn’t load AND errors me out of the game.
I have also added the realmlist.stf file into my support folder. Any thoughts?
When you say “do them all in order”, are you talking about patches 1 through 16, or the files inside the .zip update folder?
For example, there are sometimes 4 or 5 files inside each patch update folder that you have to rename to sc2-patch.MPQ. Files usually named xxxx-Bnet base, enUS game, enUS locale, Bnet bin… etc.
So does the order that THOSE FILES get updated in make a difference? If you run the Blizzard Updater on enUS game before enUS locale, will there be any problems?
I have done this to patch 16 also, and got the same error as jsb. Splash screen then crash to error report tool.
I’m glad you got it up to 12.1 and are able to play wildboar. At least SOMEONE reads what other people write in here lol. I’m not too sure about the order but at least we have a working SC2. Albeit a little outdated compared to patch 16 but at least it works
Let me know if you decide to patch any further!
IF YOU HAVE A BLACK SCREEN AND A CURSOR, IT IS BECAUSE YOU NEED TO MANUALLY APPLY THE PATCHES YOURSELF IN ORDER.
ugh, frustrating. Tried a different update13 download, applied it to a working 12.1 build that I played a few games to test with no problems, but after updating to build 15449 it starts crashing and I have to reinstall. I don’t understand how other people got it working but we can’t

To help out the people that have not gotten it to work yet.
1) Install SC2
2) Download ALLin1 9.7.7
3) MANUALLY patch until 12.1
4) Launch your SC2 via ALLin1
5) Play!
I tried patching to 12.1, launching it and it worked! I may or may not continue manually patching as I heard that patch 13 was a little corrupt for some people. I will update this if I decide to patch any further.
If you do not know how to manually patch, read the comments above. One guy explains it well.
This method worked for me, I hope it helps you guys out too.
hey JSB I found a workaround for updating to patch 16, go to bottom of this thread to see how. cheers.

Nothing is wrong, just disconnect your internet and your game will work

you have manually updated to patch 16 and can get into game with no crash to error report tool?
yup i can =)
bleh well it’s working with patch 12.1 for me, I’m going to leave it there I guess. don’t want to update to 16 and have it break again
Do i need to patch patches 1 until 12.1??

Is it possible that the most recent updates somehow invalidated installs based on build 13891? Maybe since 13891 is so easily obtained, it was broken purposefully by Blizzard to prevent distribution of the beta by third parties. Just curious.

Hej Guys,
I’ve been able to play the game with LAZYLAUNCHER, only thing is .. sometimes when i start the game it says: You are victorious.. Well, i copied serveral AI’s to the main folder, and i could play 1 or 2 games.. but then when i reboot my pc,, it won’t work anymore..
Any ideas how to fix this AI problem?
its a really cool game

anyone know where I put the manual updates? In what folders?
watch the youtube video or read the comments in this post, there are instructions there. The manual updates have to be done in order, one file at a time. The folder they go into is the SUPPORT folder, next to the Blizzard Updater.exe and BlizzardDownloader.exe files.

Posted on: July 4th, 2010 at 07:44
I did a backup just in case, but I patched to update 13 and bam, game crashes now. So something in build 15449 is screwed up. I’m going to try to find another patch mirror and see if maybe my update 13 file got corrupted maybe.
wildboar
Posted on: July 4th, 2010 at 08:22
One more thing to mention. For people having black screen+cursor freezes after applying updates MANUALLY, make sure you run the SC2Switcher.exe located in the support folder, and not the StarCraft II.exe file located in the main install folder.
So is it safe to say that we should stick to 12.1?
Try pushing it to 14 and see if it fixes it.
Thanks for doing the dirty work for me by the way
Ok, I saved you some time and did it myself.
Tested each patch as I updated. Results were like you said, 13 seems to give you a splash screen that does not load and errors out.
Post-13 patches have the same results.
So unless someone can find a fix, do not manually patch past 12.1.
yeah I was not able to force patch 14 on top of 12.1, it got a file version mismatch and it would not update. And no matter how I tried to update to 13, it would always crash. So unless anyone else has a fix for this, or a way to get a valid and working build 15449 (patch 13 applied) that can then be updated to patch 16, I suggest anyone having crash issues reinstall SC2beta, manually patch up to 12.1, and stay there. Don’t go to patch 13 or higher.
One last thing I am going to try though.
The Patch 9 folder (build 15097) contains a tools patch. This may possibly patch the Blizzard Updater, I did not get a chance to do a version check before I ran that update. I was thinking of patching up to version 9, but not applying this tools patch (file name: sc2-2.1.2.1406-2.1.2.1533-x86-Win-enUS-tools), and then trying to get to version 13 again. If that does not work, then I’m at a loss to figure out what the problem is. I’ve tried 2 different update 13 patches from 2 different locations, and it still crashes after being updated.
If that works I will post here.
Thanks for the update, I think I will just stay and be happy with 12.1 if your method does not work. At least we can play the game for a month until the real deal comes out!

I haven’t patched anything, and I can play the game..
There arent any bugs in it so far, so just play it with lazylauncher
@ Favian:
Just look at the top of the page, just pick one of the four AI’s.. download it (register first) and UNPACK it in your main Starcraft 2 BETA folder..
like: C:\Program Files\StarCraft II Beta
Also make sure u add some maps on the same way,, and then lauch lazylauncher, pick a map and play this BRUTAL GAME
Wildboar and I would be using your method but we want the patches so the game is a wee bit more balanced
Yes, you can play the base 13891 install with the lazylauncher. The point of this guide however was to instruct people how to play with the most recent SC2 beta updates. Some people are having issues doing this though, or at least getting it to work with anything past patch 12.1
So if you want updates, you can safely patch to update 12.1, but go past that version at your own risk.
Do the patches change A LOT? else i maybe should patching too
But it takes a HELL of a time, doing that shit manually
http://forums.battle.net/thread.html?topicId=23094049316
read through those to see if anything changes the game in a way you feel that you must patch.
You are right, the manual patch is a pain in the butt.
I’m certain there is a way to patch the entire contents of the update folder instead of making each individual file an MPQ (MoPaq or MoPack), as the Blizzard Downloader would bring down files and apply them automatically, but I’ve been unable to apply the manually downloaded updates as a unified file in an archived format. Also, it seems the realmlist for patching is either outdated or the patch servers are down, which is likely. So manually patching to update 12.1 and using older maps may be the only option at this point.
is it possible to do a 2 v 1, easy against urself?
else i just need to pick a harder AI… the first one is total lame
if you want to do 2 v 1 just pick a 3-4 player map and set 1 player on team one and the other 2 players on team 2. Do insane AI for harder difficulty

Got a question for anyone using new maps created with the map editor.
I went to the site to download new maps by pressing the button on the All-in-1 9.7.7 tool, which takes you to Starcraft 2 Nibbits page. I got a couple new maps from there, but they won’t load. The game will start, and the map will stay totally black, though the minimap and UI stuff works. No sounds though, nothing seems to start and no units are visible.
I notices the map file names are .SC2Map, and the default ones that work correctly are .s2ma file names. Is there something I should be doing with the .SC2Map files to make them work?
nevermind I checked the nibbits forums and found a solution
tell us that solution please, mabye others are struggling with the same problem!
hm well the solution failed, which was to simply rename SC2Map to s2ma
guess I should have checked that first. That sucks because there are some cool looking tower defense and 8player maps up on that site. I think maybe they were built to use build 16 or higher, and since I’m stuck on 12.1 they don’t load correctly
Is anyone with an active beta account able to connect and apply patches from a 13891 install?
I’m wondering if simply copying a current realmlist.wtf file will allow connecting to current beta patch servers.
whoops I meant to start a new post asking about patching and running custom maps.
ok, for anyone having problems running SC2Map files, try this tool.
http://sc2.nibbits.com/assets/simple-s2masc2map-converters/
blah screw it. That map converter tool is somewhat confusing. I could not get it to work

=========UPDATE for people experiencing crash to error report after patch 13 update========
I found a workaround for this.
Download the updates, all 16 of them. Manually patch 13891 install to update 12.1, but do not go up to 13 or higher yet.
After applying 12.1 update, Open the install folder. Default location is C:\Program Files\StarCraft II Beta
Inside is a folder named Battle.net, and in this folder is a file named Battle.net.MPQ
Move this file to a different location. It may be ok to delete but just to be safe, I moved it to a backup folder.
Since bnet is not yet up due to preparing for next phase, attempting to connect to bnet servers seems to be the cause of the crash after patching to version 13.
Now, resume updating client to update 13, 14, 15 then 16, but with a different process than you did from patch 1 to patch 12.1, the following method worked for me. I will explain.
Since Battle.net.MPQ was removed, there is no need to apply the following two battle net files (no need to copy from patch file to C:\Program Files\StarCraft II Beta\Support and then rename to sc2-patch.mpq and then run the Blizzard Updater). The files are named bnet-bin and bnet-base
- sc2-xxx-x86-Win-enUS-bnet-bin
- sc2-xxx-x86-Win-enUS-bnet-base
Skip those 2 files. Instead, apply the manual patching method to the other two files inside the update folders, same as before. (move from patch folder, rename, run blizzard updater). The game and locale files.
- sc2-xxx-x86-Win-enUS-game
- sc2-xxx-x86-Win-enUS-locale
Do this for patch 13, 14, 15 and then patch 16, remembering to skip the bnet-bin and bnet.base files. Note that patch 16 .zip does not have those two bnet files.
Finally, run SC2Switcher.exe
SC2 will launch, and will start into game. You will notice the main game screen, without any interface or UI elements, no username login box or any buttons at all. You will see the planet background and the battleship flying over, but nothing else. This is because there is no Battle.net.MPQ, but that is fine. ALT-F4 or CTRL-ALT-DEL to get out of the game, end task, and then go to your lazyloader now. Use that from now on.
Run the loader as normal, setup your opponents and settings, select map, and you will be in game with patch 16 (build 15655).
This will also allow you to play the bonus charlemagne maps, new custom maps uploaded from other users, and the SC2Map files from here :
=========UPDATE for people experiencing crash to error report after patch 13 update========

This will also allow you to play the bonus charlemagne maps, new custom maps uploaded from other users, and the SC2Map files from here :
http://sc2.nibbits.com/maps/
and possibly other sites.
I tested this with 2v4 – High Ground.SC2Map, charlemagne_03_uberfjord_v1.S2ma, and (8) Big Lost Tempel.SC2Map, no problems.
Keep in mind, if you have a valid bnet beta login and will be continuing to beta test, bypassing Battle.net.MPQ updating may cause issues when the update/login servers become available, but for now you will be able to play in offline mode using launchers like lazylauncher.and possibly other launchers.
Cheers, hope that helps people.
Thanks for the work-a-round wildboar!
No problem. good luck
I have tried this work-a-round and it does indeed work.
I see that you are using Lazy Launcher. I am still using ALLin1 and it also works with this work-a-round.

play the 2v4 highground map on insaneAI. That’s a good one. you and 1 computer in the center, 4 other AI attacking you from all 4 sides.
i cant choose teams with lazylaucher, or am i missing sumthing?
On the game settings tab that has the race/team/location selection and difficulty there is a team vs. team setting. It is the Game Type selection box. In there you will find the option to go free for all, map settings, or team vs. team.

Do replays work with the work-around? I can’t seem to get mine to work…
I don’t think anything other than getting into game and playing skirmishes will work at this point. I can’t even see the end score screen after a game is finished. Without the Battle.net.MPQ, you won’t be able to see any of that stuff.
But try what JSB linked for the replays. Other websites have mentioned being able to run replays.
An alternative is to stay with build 12.1, I believe then you can view replays as normal.

Man I have seriously tried EVERYTHING on the internet to try and get my replays to work. I just re-installed AND manually patched and it still doesn’t work…

Read the Cache Download and Installation bit. Hope this helps out.
Thanks for the link. I have tried that before also, and it didn’t work. Not sure what else to try….
Did you update to patch 16 but not update the battle.net.MPQ?
Yes I’m at Patch 16, and I took battle.net.MPQ out of my battle.net folder
Everyone, you need to read the comments. All the questions people are asking have been answered repeatedly.
Patch 16 WILL BREAK the ALLin1 launcher!!!! Updating your game after installing by connecting to Blizzard WILL BREAK the ALLin1 launcher.
Stop posting asking for help if you have not read the comments and followed the instructions other people have written out for you.
You must MANUALLY patch to 15.1, and you must do this without connecting to the Blizzard patch servers. Connecting to Blizz to update will give you the “unable to validate starcraft II license” error. After patching manually you then have to move or rename the battle.net.MPQ file from the battle.net folder inside the install directory to avoid black screen hangups and crashing.
If you are unable to read through the comments or do not want to put in the effort to do the manual patch process, there is nothing else people can do to help you.
ugh comment system is being stupid. this was meant for another post, sorry Sicksee

Why does the launcher take me to the battle.net screen Note:Already reinstalled it
That is strange. are you using the launcher listed in the links by Demon? It should be the All in 1 9.7.7 launcher. It is supposed to take you straight into a game with the players/races/start locations/team settings you select, bypassing login and the main battle.net screen.
Have you installed everything to the default location?
On WinXP:
Starcraft II should be in C:\Program Files\StarCraft II Beta
Launcher should be C:\Program Files\StarCraft II Beta\SC2ALLin1
Maps should be C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\My Documents\StarCraft II Beta\Maps
clicking LAUNCH should start straight into Sc2.
If that is not the case, uninstall, remove any folder and file left behind, delete contents of TEMP folder, reinstall 13891 to default location, decide if you want to patch or not up to build 16, then install the SC2ALLin1. Should work then.
Remember guys, the workaround to patch past 12.1 will break the ability to see end game scores, the main login window, and probably replays. I’m checking on that.

“I am getting a error after I launch the SC2ALLin1….It says “Unable to validate Starcraft II licence. Please log into Battle.net from the game or editor before proceeding.””
Thx for help
I believe this is because of the new phase of beta test that started today, and the new patches that came with it.
I was able to play until yesterday, but it seems that blizzard made a way to disable the cracks with their new patch or something. Only a guess.
Same here, I could only play until yesterday and then everything got screwed up. It automatically updated itself when I launched the game.
I’ve tried the new ALLin1 and reinstalled beta client thing, but it won’t work either.

Posted on: July 8th, 2010 at 21:49
Probably should have removed battle.net.MPQ and manually patched up to 16 to avoid the problem. Unplug your internet and don’t let it auto-patch because the ALLin1 launcher has not been updated to work with the newest patch.
k groovy, i think i’ll just re-install the beta client.
also, i’m on the patch download page, and i can see:
sc2patch1-16-enUS.zip
and
sc2patch16-enUS.zip
which is the one i need?
thanks man
Patch1-16 contains all updates from 1 to 16. This is a new file that was uploaded and I have not tested this yet.
However, since you have to update each file within the update folder individually, it’s usually easier to simply download each patch one at a time, going in order from 1 to 16. As stated before, once you get to patch 12.1, it may be necessary to no longer update the Battle.net.MPQ file with the bnet patches included in those updates.
Also, the bnet servers are now back up and updating clients, I am unsure what will happen if you update the bnet files with any of the previous patches up to update 12. Connect to the Blizzard servers at your own risk.
btw JSB thanks for all the leg work and sticking around to help people out. Good stuff.

I’m surprised that the crack worked for as long as it did.
As a general rule of thumb, when cracking a program I never connect to the official servers to update, and run patches manually when possible.
I suspect that update 17 will become available soon. If I can patch without connecting to Blizzard and run an available ALLin1 launcher without any problems, I’ll post details here.

I made a mistake, there is no patch “17″.
http://patches.lordaeron.org/sc2beta/pc/enUS/
This index contains the patch files needed to manually update. Up until now everyone was under the impression that the most recent patch (before beta phase 2 update out this morning) was 16. It was actually 15.1
So the patches listed on that site should contain 1 through 15, with the small updates 12.1 and 15.1 listed for download.
Also linked is patch 16, which may possibly be the most recent patch. I am downloading this now, will patch up, and will post here if I the ALLin1 launcher is unable to run with the correct update 16.
Until someone verifies this, I suggest everyone stay at build 15.1 until told that update 16 is OK to patch up to.

Download the client, download the ALLin1 launcher.
Unplug from internet.
Install SC2Beta client. Game will try to auto update. Close this. Install the launcher. Play.
You can play on the base install build if you want (13891). You can also update to patch 15.1, but only manually, because if you connect to the Battle net servers, you will be updated to patch 16 and it seems this may prevent the ALLin1 launcher 9.7.7 from being able to start the game. Connect to Blizzard servers only if you have a valid beta key and wish to play online.

An update.
The manual method of patch updating does not seem to work for patch 16 released today.
I get the error : The file “SC2.exe” could not be found. If this problem persists, you may be able to solve it by uninstalling and then reinstalling the game. If you are unable to correct this problem, please contact Blizzard Technical Support.
Stay at patch 15.1 until a new workaround can be made available. I’m doing what I can to figure this out.
Something in the phase 2 update has changed the way the patching process is handled. The new updater may be looking for a file named SC2.exe, which currently may be the SC2Switcher.exe.
When I renamed this file and ran the updater, I got the error: The game installation is corrupt, because no installed languages could be found. Please reinstall the game. If this problem persists, you may be able to solve it by uninstalling and then reinstalling the game. If you are unable to correct this problem, please contact Blizzard Technical Support. (SetLanguage)
Still trying to find a workaround for patch 16.

just a quick one, i’ve downloaded all the individual patches from 1-15.1
but how do i like install/patch them in to my starcraft 2 game?
i’ve un-zipped them and they’re just bin files which i can’t open or do anything with..
am i supposed to move them somewhere?
thanks in advance!

That will get you to patch 15.1
Remember, after done patching, move battle.net.MPQ from battle.net folder, then you can use the ALLin1 launcher to play.

I got this same problem with update 16.
When I get the time I will try it with update 15.1. But it is a time consuming proces to patch everything manually.
I played on update 14 succesfully but had problems with performance. I don’t know if my computer is to weak but I don’t think so since I set all graphic properties to “low”…
Because I patched to update 16 I will have to make a new install and try 15.1.
Hope this can help

Everyone, you need to read the comments. All the questions people are asking have been answered repeatedly.
Patch 16 WILL BREAK the ALLin1 launcher!!!! Updating your game after installing by connecting to Blizzard WILL BREAK the ALLin1 launcher.
Stop posting asking for help if you have not read the comments and followed the instructions other people have written out for you.
You must MANUALLY patch to 15.1, and you must do this without connecting to the Blizzard patch servers. Connecting to Blizz to update will give you the “unable to validate starcraft II license” error. After patching manually you then have to move or rename the battle.net.MPQ file from the battle.net folder inside the install directory to avoid black screen hangups and crashing.
If you are unable to read through the comments or do not want to put in the effort to do the manual patch process, there is nothing else people can do to help you.
Thanks for your support wildboar
no problem Heroin. Apologies for being frustrated. Hope everything works out for people and getting this up and running.
Don’t forget everyone, if you want to play online and enjoy the game, pre-order it now. You get a beta key, which gives you access to online updates and official support from Blizzard, and will be able to play multiplayer online with other people.

I manually patched up to 9 and was able to play using the lazy launcher though the AI was really weak. I then tried manually patching to 15.1.
Now almost every launcher I can find will open maps but there are no players just fog of war.
The newest allin1 launcher just crashes after loading a little bit of the progress bar.
I’ve found mention of this problem but no solutions.
Any ideas, or has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks

I don’t know which patch to begin from when trying to manually patch the client. I have downloaded what i thought was the right patch (patch 14 – enUS) considering the client download from this page is version 13, i presume the next ‘patch’ is patch 14. This doesn’t seem to work however and i think i’ve got the version number wrong.
I know how to manually patch, i just don’t know which patch i am supposed to begin with.
i am using this list as a database to gather patches from http://forums.battle.net/thread.html?topicId=25170841374&postId=251683269625&sid=5000#0
and i am trying to update the client version download-able from the top of this page. As stated though, i do not now know which patch to start with. I have tried patch 14 and i keep getting error messages when i try to patch the client.
i understand wildboar and other people seem to be getting rather annoyed at people asking the same questions, yet i have read through the latest comments since beta phase two has started, and have followed and commented on other peoples queries previously. I am now having trouble manually patching as i have not done it before and have had the allinone launcher working for a while, i uninstalled it recently after patching to patch 16 before i had come here to find that it breaks the allinone launcher.
Hope someone can help me.
ignore me. Figured it out, i didn’t know you had to actually begin from patch 1. the patches seem to be working now.

“No installer data could be found. If this problem persists, please contact Blizzard Technical Support.” i got this problem… even if my folder includes
* “Installer Tome 1.MPQ”
* “Installer UI 1.MPQ”
* “Installer UI 2.MPQ”
* “Installer.exe” files
That is the first time I have heard of this issue. Where did you get your SC2 beta install from?
I’ll check it out.
I got it from a friend actually via Flash disk. I mounted the ISO file then opened Starcraft II Beta enUS 13891 Installer folder but when i ran the setup ”boom no installer data….” pops up.
There is something corrupted in that install or one of the tome files. I would redownload from somewhere. I got mine from TPB link provided in the instructions by Demon at the top of this page. I just downloaded it again a few hours ago and reinstalled to check. It worked fine.
thanks. i re-download it too. then it worked fine ^_^

This Battlenet account does not include an associated copy of StarCraft II. Please log into Battlenet account management and add the game to your account.

For the recent people posting. It has been stated that updating to patch 16 WILL STOP the all in one launcher from working due to the new way the client side application interacts with the battle.net servers commencing Beta phase 2.
In-order to get the allin one launcher to work you need to (i know its a pain in the ass, but if you really want to play then you have to do this to fix the problem) uninstall everything and redownload the client available from the top of this page. ***Make sure you kill the installer before it applies any updates after the game has been installed***
Next you have to MANUALLY patch, starting at patch 1 using this link: http://patches.lordaeron.org/sc2beta/pc/enUS/
Download and install each patch *in order* and refer to the following steps to find out how to manually patch the client.
1. locate your SC2 game folder directory. In here you will find a folder called “Support”, open this folder window.
2. Open a ‘new’ folder window and locate your downloaded patch. Within your downloaded patch directory you should have a folder named “Updates” and within this folder you should have between 2 and 4 (this sometimes deviates) files named something similar to “sc2-0.2.0.13891-0.3.0.14093-x86-Win-enUS-bnet-base”
3. Copy and paste the first file into the Support window you have open from earlier and rename it to SC2-patch.mpq
4. Do this for every file in each patch folder, then move onto the next patch folder.
If you still don’t quite understand the process please refer to this you tube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7ot0krgL2E)
IMPORTANT!!! – Do not update past patch 15.1. Patch 15.1 is where you should STOP as going beyond this breaks the All in one Launcher.
I have simply compiled this information from various sources, most of which on this page, for ease of use for people that haven’t been following the comments progression. I know allot of people say ‘read the comments’ but i understand the length of this page deters allot of people from doing so. Hopefully this message will help a few people that are having issues with the client.
Cheers.
CRAP!!!!
i TOTALLY forgot that once you have place the files in the support folder and renamed them to SC2-patch.mpq
*** YOU HAVE TO CLICK ON THE APPLICATION NAMED “BLIZZARD UPDATER” TO INSTALL THE PATCH FILE ***
This application is found in the same support folder. Do this to install each patch as this is ‘how’ you actually install the patch files.
Sorry for completely missing that important step lol!!
Do i need to patch all patches 1 to 12.1?
yes. From patch 1 to patch 15.1
haha ok thanks. ^_^

Just like many before, The crack doesn’t work anymore!
It keeps asking me to validate the key ._.
No, it does work. You just did not follow the instructions. I just now uninstalled, re-downloaded a fresh install build (13891), patched to 15.1, and was able to play.
Don’t know how many more times I am going to repeat this. Do not connect to blizzard after installing 13891 base Starcraft2. Do not patch to 16.
To be safe I disable my internet while installing. After the install finishes it attempts to connect automatically to blizz. If it does this, it will begin the patching process and that will disable your ability to play offline with ALLin1 launcher.
You have to manually patch the beta to update 15.1, and then remove or rename the file Battle.net.MPQ located in the battle.net folder of your install. Default location is C:\Program Files\StarCraft II Beta\Battle.net
To manually patch, you must follow the instructions listed here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7ot0krgL2E
You must do this for every patch, from 1 to 15.1, and yes, it does take some time to do. After you finish patching, you must run SC2Switcher.exe, not Starcraft II.exe, or you will be unable to play. After running the SC2switcher.exe, the game will start but you will see nothing but a planet background and the terran battleship flying on top of the screen. ALT-F4 or CTRL-ALT-DEL to end task, then run the launcher. It will work. I am playing right now in windowed mode.
Alright, Thanks, Didn’t see that lolz

A few other things I have not been able to test, but may be possible causes of problems for people.
- If you have another Blizzard game installed (WoW, warcraft 3), the Blizzard Updater may already be patched and expecting you to install Starcraft II beta. I don’t know a work around if that is true.
- If you are installing Starcraft II beta and the ALLinONE launcher into a folder other than default, you may encounter problems.

OK so ii am having some trouble. I did a fresh install of beta client (13891).
I watched the youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7ot0krgL2E but still i keep effing up on the manual installs. I got to 12.1 and when i ran SC2allin1 (newest) it says
“…failed to start because fmodex_4_28_07.dll was not found.”
I always copied the first and then second “updates” and did the .MPQ thing but still nothing.
heres what my update folder looks like
“sc2-0.3.0.14093-0.4.0.14133-x86 game
sc2-0.3.0.14093-0.4.0.14133-x86 locale
so i did game first and then local right?
anyone run into this issue before? i scanned the posts but didn’t see any other issues like that. My comp was online and it attempted to connect to blizzard after patch 10? and then 12.1 but i stopped it. just trying to get to patch 12.1 atm i saw how to do the proper installs for 13+ earlier.
anyways thanks again!
i figured it out! for some reason when i extracted the files I had to start from the bottom and and work my way to the top installing updates.
game is working perfect up to patch 10 havent bothered going further yet.

Please log in to Battle.net or the Galaxy editor’ or something like that. This is really irritating as i just got a new hard drive for my laptop and one 1 had before had SC2 working great. Now i get SC2 back, and it doesnt work.
Please provide assistance if possible. Thanks

If you are still having issues patching to update 15.1, then just install the base 13891, ****DO NOT PATCH OR CONNECT TO BLIZZARD WITH THE UPDATER**** and then install the ALLin1. If you cannot figure out how to prevent yourself from connecting to Blizzard after the SC2beta install has finished, then it might be best for you to wait for retail launch or a more updated crack.

when I reinstall the beta and don’t let the game update and start the game then with te Allin1, I get a black screen and a green mouse pointer.

Sorry for not reading the comments on regards to my last request. But i have another problem. I patched it all the way to 15.1 and my internet was disabled through the ENTIRE process (installing client, patching manually). My Galaxy Editor works fine
but when i try to start a offline game it shows the nice loading screen with a planet and a loading bar, but then the game crashes all the time. Suggestions anyone?
btw i also experience crashes when i use the SC2 Switcher program or the original beta .exe
Can you explain the crash? Does it go straight to windows desktop with no error message? Does it show a crash log or error window with information in it?
This sounds like you patched but did not remove the battle.net.MPQ file from the Battle.net folder inside your Starcraft II beta install folder.
LOL well isnt my face red :S Yeah that was it and now im happily playing sc. btw the custom games can be run from the Galaxy Editor if u want a glimpse of what is to come in the final release.

your download is corrupt. Patch9 is a large 400MB file, and if you have internet problems, you will have errors with this file and might need to find a different place to download it from.
any idea where I can download this patch?..thanks wilboar..:)

i followed everything…….when i start the allin 1 launcher it works but the loading takes forever is that normal or what???
your computer may not be fast enough to play the game. One suggestion that works for some people with older machines is to install the game (DO NOT PATCH OR UPDATE), start up and go to options and turn everything to LOW. See if that helps. Then, if you can get into a game with the ALLin1 launcher, you can update to patch 15.1 if you feel the need to do that.
Also, you can try turning up some of the options one at a time to see which ones cause long load times or crashes. I run everything extreme/ultra except for texture detail, which can take up to 1GB of texture memory. Running at High or Medium is fine.

Hello to everyone!
I hope i will bring some smiles and happiness in your hearts by telling you that it’s been working for me for about a week, ever since i first installed it.
The only PROBLEM, and i know you’re not gonna be too happy to hear this, is that it’s patched up to version 12.1., therefor a lot of stuff is pretty outdated.
but IT WORKS! and, let’s face it, it’s only a demo. so, until the final release, we might as well enjoy what we have so far (that is actually working), right?
These are the STEPS that i followed:
1. downloaded the Starcraft torrent,
2. installed it (DEFAULT INSTALL: let it go into program files,it’s the safest)
3. DIDN’T let it get any kind of updates.
4. downloaded the patches from this link (sorry to the moderators if i’m not allowed to post it, just delete it) http://patches.lordaeron.org/sc2beta/pc/enUS/
downloaded patches 1 -> 12.1
5. removed battle.net.mpq from the starcraft folder
6. installed the patches manually (How do you actually do this: extract the patch files. there should be 2 files for each version of the patch. one of them should be called something like: sc2-0.5.0.14219-0.6.0.14259-x86-Win-enUS-locale and the other one smth like: sc2-0.5.0.14219-0.6.0.14259-x86-Win-enUS-game . What you do, is take them one by one, move it into the “support” folder and rename it sc2-patch.MPQ Then you run the blizzard updater, then delete the newly created sc2-patch.MPQ. then you move to the next one. copy into support folder, rename, run update, delete. And you do this up to 12.1. and NO MORE.
7. then you install the last SC2ALLIN1 9.77, that you have above.
8. copy some maps
9. you’re good to go.
Hi!
I was following your description, but when I launched the game, an ErrorReporter popped up, saying that the game has crashed. Do you know whats wrong here?

Posted on: July 18th, 2010 at 20:36
I also got that “black screen and cursor but nothing else” error.
I hope someone can find the reason or a solution for this error.
Also, I don’t know if this can help, but when I check my currently running process while the “black screen” (a.k.a. SC2) is running, I have two SC2.exe process, one using 644 Kb of memory and the other one using a normal amount (around 200 Mb)
I did all the step (installed the build 13891 and the last version of SC2Allin1)
Thanks for the help (or at least trying to help, if no solution is possible)
the sc allin wont work if you do not perform those update . And for the black screen , run the latest video card driver .. it seem that i had this problem because starcraft did not recorgnize my video card , i simply updated my video card driver and it was working

When I start a game from the All in one launcher, the game shows the Starcraft II with initializing maps at the bottom, then I get the error that the license isn’t validated and that I need to log in before I can play, then it takes me to the front screen to log in.
go download the new all in one launcher
Actually I fixed it, I didnt know that using the updater didn’t work, so I did the fix that the people were commenting about and my game is up and running, the standard Ai is way too easy though…doesn’t make me feel like im playin a real player at all lol, he just builds marines, zealots, or zerglings to rush me, you stop the first rush and u win.
What fix did you do? Cause I received the same error.

When I open the game up without the “SC2ALLin1 v9.7.7″ it opens fine and loads and I can see the main screen but when I open a map with the “SC2ALLin1 v9.7.7″ it shows a black screen with the mouse. I have updated drivers and have tried all the maps and each one does the same problem. I’m not sure what to do and I’ve read all the other comments and haven’t come to a conclusion.
And when I click on “B.net A.I.” under game settings it opens it and loads so no black screen but then it goes to the main screen since I don’t have the code for beta.
You didn’t patch to 15.1 did you.

Will 9.9.0 work with the latest patch (I believe 17 or 18 as of now)?
I am wondering about it because it seems to be crashing on map loading at patch 15.1.
9.7.7 kept crashing for me when I was about to win a match (in enemy base with an attack force) so I’m hoping for the best, it definitely can’t be my system as it’s more than the recommended.
Also it seems like I cannot manual patch 16, I simply get an error dialog with something like ‘cannot find SC2.exe’.
Hoping for answer, surely wasn’t able to find them myself.
works for me

How do I update to patch 16? I get an “cannot find SC2.exe” error, and i dont know how to fix this problem.
Also, the Allin1 9.9.0 does not work correctly with patch 15.1, anything harder than very easy AI gives me script logic errors in the game.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
I forgot to mention that the AI becomes completely passive after the script logic errors, so it makes the game pretty much unplayable.
Sorry for the triple post, but with further testing i can confirm that the new All in one 9.9.0 launcher doesnt work correctly with patch 15.1, only very easy AI is active, other difficulty levels dont work. Couldn’t test it with patch 16 because i haven’t figured out a way to patch to 16 yet (cannot find SC2.exe error).

And now it also seems like Blizzard took down the installation somehow, I can’t get the game to work properly any longer
god thank I already ordered it anyway so it will be just a week of doing something else..
what? once again, I redownloaded the 13891 client an hour ago from TPB link provided by demon, patched to update 15.1, and it worked fine.

9.9.0 Launcher works for 18? oO
I am using 9.7.7 ALLinONE, with SC2beta update 15.1
I do not use any other patches as they do not add that much or make major changes to the game, and according to the patch notes there is nothing big happening past 15.1 up to update 18. The official Blizzard AI was made available in phase 2, but I have been using Dark Green commander AI and have been very pleased with the results. There are a few maps that do not work with older builds but it is no big deal. Beta is coming to a close very soon, one week.
So, once again, you can use ALLinONE 9.7.7, and SC2beta 15.1. It works for me, it works for other people. If you are not able to get this working, all you need to do is read the tutorial and the comments made on this page. That is how I got it to work, and you will get it to work if you follow instructions.

I’m having the same issue as VespBurner, script logic errors on any difficulty above very easy, making the game practically unplayable… I’m using patch 15.1 btw.

Okay, so ive been using this for several weeks now. and it has been working perfectly. But as soon as the beta went down, when i start a game, no matter the settings i use, IN Game thats all it is is fog of war everywhere, no starting locations, nothing. just the map is visible. Can i fix this?
