Hey, people. Recently I discovered that AI has made porting open source projects for different plataforms really easy. Today I've been trying to make Star Craft 1 run on the New 3ds hardware, using gemini flash 3.8 high, on antigravity. It's really early in the development and A LOT of changes have to be made to be playable. But this early concept of gameplay is really cool and all the maps are there.
If you want me to make this project public in the future comment bellow and make suggestions so I can make good prompts.

I've actually never played SC1, but I'm a huge fan of SC2!!

(I don't know if this violates the AI rule, since its not an "AI generated vídeo" but an AI helped port).

I haven't even played a campaign (yet, game looks interesting).

Suprised how good camera actually is in replays, showing what I was clicking for the most part. It still missing me reading what each building does.

We were in discord call and the only thing he advised me is:
How to build workers (until number over nexus and those gas thingy go up to the limit).
What to build near ramp. Still not sure why.
And to build second base.
Oh, and he also said that there's second page of buildings.

Other than that he just said do waht you want and giggled through entire game.

Just thought I will share this game.

EDIT: It also took me a minute to find that menu is F10, not escape...

I always thought these custom console UI's were just stream overlays lol, this is sick that blizzard added these, easiest $6 i've ever spent

if you analyze his actions with the hindsight of Starcraft 2 story. it can actually be deduced he was already working to undermine everyone.

first of all - he couldn't really be infested and under Kerrigan's control - he shows no sign of it whatsoever, and only his voice changes when he joins the Zerg. he only let Kerrigan think she's controlling her when in reality he was the one manipulating her.

we can see this manipulation clearly in the "True Colors" mission. Duran is the one that subtly suggested Kerrigan to betray her allies by asking "and what of your allies, what should be done with them, you're simply going to let them leave?"
the queen thinks the killing her friends was her idea, but it was Duran's psyching powers that covertly planted this idea in her mind. just like he did with Dugal when he insisted on killing Stukov and destroying the Psi Disruptor.

every time we see Duran in a mission briefing he always gives exellent tactical advice as if he knows everything but at the same time it's horrible strategic advice because winning his battles doesn't help his 'masters' at all.
what did kerrigan get from killing Fenix and Razhagal? absolutely nothing. she just made the Protoss her sworn enemy
this only benefited Duran, who needs the zerg and protoss and constant war so he'll have all the bodies he needs for the hybrid project.

why did Duran ensure Mengsk's survival? because he is the only one crazy and evil enough to give him the resources to create the hybrids. and so that humanity will continue to have war with the protoss
and by keeping all the 3 sides hating each other he is setting up the perfect ground for retrieving the Xelnaga keystone pieces and making sure no one is strong enough when Amon will finally return.

think about it: we first see him as a Confederate commander that pledges allegiance to the UED, but he immediately starts to sabotage their interests right in the next mission, was it possible he was infested this whole time and no one noticed? impossible. he was already orchestrating everyone in response to Kerrigan's independence.

it's even safe to assume he is the reason why the zerg attacked humanity in the first place - if this entire time he was in a position of power within the Confederacy it's very likely he convinced the leadership to experiment on the zerg, helped creating the psi-emitters and had no problems murdering millions on mar-sara and chau-sara to test them.

I like the gameplay of both Starcraft and Dawn of War, but I'm just curious if yall would want hero based squads or squads spawned in from points like in Retribution?

I wouldn't either one, and part of the reason I want this kinda game is because I feel like it would give the opportunity to explore a bit more of the universe in smaller ways.

someone suggested earlier a game inspired on dawn of war 2 and while i was replying to the post this idea cross my mind inspired on statecraft and brood wars missions where you control a limited amount of units (like The Jacobs Installation mission)

and it cross my mind same gameplay , at bigger scale with more detail graphics and environments that you could maybe even interact with so you can make more complex missions you couldnt have in the original starcraft would be one heck of a game

cause those missions where you had to really think your actions and use the units abilities carefully and strategically where really fun . would be awesome if someone was to do game expanding on that . that still feel more like starcraft than xcom

Anyone watch it?

Insane game 3:

I've never seen such a crazy late game transition before - If you are subscribed to Rotti you can watch it:

https://www.twitch.tv/rotterdam08 - otherwise it will be put on Basilisk's youtube channel later.

But yeah, Swarm host late game transition when you're 20k resources in trading down in TVZ - to win the game. I've never seen this transition before in my years of watching pro starcraft. When 16 Swarm hosts got queued I thought it was a misclick!

I’ve played for decades. Love the game. The community has gotten violent though… the death threats have me decide it’s not worth it anymore. About 16,000 matches in SCII. I’m usually in team games around diamond league.

I don’t know y’all. Lack of moderation and really abusive spammy and violent player pool has me feeling disgusted. But I guess we don’t hold LLMs accountable for their words either so….

I’ll be back later I guess. But it sucks to be involved. It’s gotten worse.

So I'm not saying we should go back to the reduced worker count. I am wondering if a reason was given for raising the worker count in the first place.

When blizzard FIRST raised the worker count from 6-12, why did they raise it to that particular number instead of 10 or 14? Was any reason given or was it just an arbitrary, 100% increase?

by that i mean things that go against the script (like destroying the facility with drones in SC2 HOTS) – i'll go first:

in BW with kerrigan and the psi emitter once the evac comes for the SCV i let the SCV get onboard the dropship and then destroy it with scourges. because i'm an asshole!

and some missions i cheat and get myself a dark archon then mind control another army. it's fun, lol.

in SC2 with zagara and the banelings i cheat and rush and kill her base straight up without the banelings – i keep killing her everytime she comes back until there's nothing left!

in Nova:CO i cheat and rush to kill general davis before the camera cuts to cutscene (can't recall if i succeeded, lol)

do you have some more?

Hey Friends!

SMF is looking to do a light-weight BW event in late November. DATE IS TBA. We would like to cap it at 8 players. If interested, let me know. BW is new to us from an event standpoint--as we run multiple tournaments for other games including SC2.

I know there are many great groups and leagues out there running BW leagues and such; but this is something new for our community. If it sticks, we would likely run more smaller events.

Cheers!

I want to preface by saying both of the things in the title of this thread are just two reasons why there is turtling and not a lot of action

First, siege mode.

-Back when it was an upgrade it allowed the other races timings to be aggro on the map vs terran. Removing siege mode as an upgrade caused turtling on both sides and lack of action.

Second, Adepts:

-Adepts completely ruins the pvz interaction of units. But pvt and pvp as well.

-Not only does it remove more uniqueness from the races (now each race has a ranged unit that cant attack up) but it causes lack of action.

-Zerg and terran and even protoss can micro against zealots and that causes skill representation too, demonstrate multitasking and apm. With Adepts it forces the other races to not only not attack much, but also causes them to wait till they get more tanky units like Marauders, roaches and stalkers, it causes the games to play out way too similar and doesnt allow for variety or skill impression, and it allows protoss to more easily defend things, the game became too one dimensional and there isnt much of a wow factor watching players micro vs Adepts .

I sort of figured once we saw Adepts being added, pvx would forever be ruined, and I was right.

REMOVE ADEPTS. FIX PVX

BRING BACK SIEGE MODE.

Reinstalled the game after many years (last time I played, LotV wasn't out yet). To warm up, I did the HotS campaign on hard (and to re-learn the hotkeys, because I decided to use the TheCore hotkeys this time around). Just finished it now, and ready to go play the ladder. I have some quick questions about the viability of certain comps (at a casual level, not asking about the optimal pro-level comp).

One thing I used to enjoy, was playing a zergling-based mass-queen comp. I would make more hatcheries than needed (at least 2 per base), and constantly pump out queens, not just for injects, but to be part of the army. The reason is that I found that to be extremely "stable", in the sense that it helps defend against early attacks, including from flying units, without having to overspend on static defenses or having to spend gas. The queens are quite beefy and provided good anti-air, so even in the main army, as long as we are on creep, they would be doing a lot of work.

With the excess gas, I was able to go double evo to push a lot of upgrades fast, and spend a lot on banelings. So the main comp for early to middle game would be lings+banes+queens, and later I would be able to add ultralisks or something, and also nydus worms or whatever, because with this comp we have extra gas for a lot of things.

Anyway, probably sounds like a silly comp overall. But my question is about what changed since then (last 12 years pretty much). I know we have 12 drones at start now, and I noticed the queen's price increased from 150 to 175. Are there other important things that might be relevant (changes of stats, or creep spread, or nydus, or other similar things)?

Feel free to insult me for my stupid comp btw. I won't take offense haha.
