Campaign Creations

I just finished remaking the VotF 1 patch with the MPQ included.  I'm going to do VotF 2-5 in the coming weeks.  Please report any bugs, problems, or differences here.  If someone has some ftp space that I could use, let me upload the files there so I don't have to rapidshare them. 

Once all of the kinks are worked out, I give CampaignCreations permission to post this patch in the VotF section as a replacement to the current patch.

Requirements:
StarCraft BroodWar 1.14
OR
StarCraft BroodWar 1.15

Requires only campaign maps from:

Known issues:
Akane's attack has never worked, so I removed it in favor of cleanliness. 

I'm going to pass this by RCX before we post this just incase.

I've always wanted to play Black Dream/Prophecy with Stargraft. I remember this 1 big space level where you gotta break into Arestes's base or something and I got a wonderful cloaked Carrier that did NOTHING!

Okay, so I've been working on VotF 1 some more and I've re-enabled the Shuttle's attack.  I'm working on Akane's attack next.  Hopefully I should be able to fix it.

If I remember correctly Akane only attacked when she was idle and not doing anything else, like healing.

Nope, RCX.  Akane's attack never ever ever ever worked.  She just walked up to the other unit.  I'm trying to change it and fix it, but it's just not working.  I think I'm just going to give up on it.  By the way, the StarGraft patches you have up on the site for all of these is just the wrong one.  I got the real ones for Black Dream and VOTF off a CD.  One was a pat and one was a sepat that I had to hex edit.  VotF is working now 100% except for Akane's attack.  If you (or someone else) can figure out how to fix it (some dat editing and iscript editing), I'll put it back in, but as of now, It doesn't look too promising. 

Black dream seems fairly easily doable.  Probably 3 hours of work to get it back to working. 

Prophecy, on the other hand, never had an EX patch that worked right if I remember correctly.  I found a version of it on the CC FTP and I'll dig around in it, but I don't think it'll be as fully featured as BD or VotF.  The Final Destiny/Mekani patch (are they the same? I can't tell.  Both are vision4sgpatch) is a trainwreck.  That will probably take me a few days to fix.  If you have anything that could help me saved on your computer, I'd really appreciate it.  Anyway, I'm done working on this today.  I'll probably have most of the patches done in 2 weeks or so. 

They're only as good as the tools they were made with... and it was like making stuff out of pure crap. I think I had to hand-edit some of the stuff to make it work.

hmmm, isn't VotF3 the exe with no problems whatsoever?
I am however looking forward to the VotF1,2,and 4 fixes
BTW, isn't the mekani thing separate from VotF4? 

Don't ever talk to me.  I hate you and you are stupid.

RTFM

I've been seeing this discussion, and there's a thing I want to say about Akane not attacking:  I guess it's not in Firegraft, but in ICECC, the data who makes all units in Starcraft work.  I'll try to test the mod, make in some ICECC changes on Akane's GRP (Medic) and send in if it works.

I already tried about 20 different IceCC edits.  If you can get one to work, I'd gladly put it back in.  By the way, you will also need to edit the DATs to change the attack settings for the attack unit and right click and stuff

I tried changing the medic's graphic in arsenal.  That would make the ICECC part irrelevant, since iscript is controlled by graphic choice.  Unfortunately, it still didn't work.  I tried changing the AI and weapon in arsenal, but it didn't work.  I changed the medic to an exact copy of the ghost, and still, it wouldn't work.  However, heal still worked.  If anyone can think of anything other than It seems that the medic unit is a very special case.  Apparently there is a "can attack" opcode that needs to be set on the medic, but I can't find it.

Okay, there are only three solutions right now.

1.  Make a new Akane unit not based on the medic and replace her in every map (I refuse to do it.  That's too much work for me.)
2.  Use Firegraft to change only the medic's "attack+move."  This will produce the effect RCX was talking about, where akane will only attack when she isn't healing. 
3.  Use Firegraft to change the medic's "attack+move" to attack unit.  This will allow akane only to attack units that you target manually.  This one is my choice, but I'm willing to do whatever the people here want. 

EDIT:  I'm giving up on this.  The medic's attack is too buggy.  It's also completely useless.  It does 6 damage and has like 2 range.  I'm removing it completely.  If anyone has a problem with it, figure it out yourself.

but what about the VotF 2 and 4 exectables? 

Ya some of us would enjoy playing more recent versions
