im doing a mod for my campaign Path of darkness im done with it but i cant start it for some reason.
it says:  Starcraft was unable to open a required file. If this problem persists try uninstalling and reinstalling starcraft using program ''SETUP.EXE'' on the starcraft CD-ROM. The problem occurred while trying to load a file Stardat.mpq


What should i do?

Would help if we knew what you used to make the mod itself and what version of StarCraft you're running.

usually the error of missing file lists exactly what the file is.  Like "setup can't find rez/gluchat.bin etc".  This is a good technique btw for finding "unknowns" in older mods.  Just rebuild the sempq leaving out the unknowns and Starcraft will tell you what those files are!  But I digress... Are you saying setup says it can't find "stardat.mpq"?  Been messing with your starcraft folder or somethin?
