Starcraft/Broodwar 1.15.1 & THINSTALL

[Joe Forster/STA]

Registry values are quite localized into one or two groups at most. Also, you can use RegMon or some registry snapshot & compare software to find out the changes during the real installation. And, as games are not designed for slipstreaming, probably ripping is the only way to incorporate the latest official updates, addons, editors, tools etc. into them.

As for this thinstall software, it was meant to be used by software professionals, not for just running games in "unexpected environments", that's why it's so damn expensive.

well, good news. I finally got it working! I was missing ONE registry key that for some reason I forgot to implement as well. WOW - that took like 3 days to figure out. But now I got everything in one file! geez....

and actually I just checked a basic license (excluding distribution fees) is $4,995. So....Yea...I saw a XPS laptop (customized to my specs) that was that much and I rather buy that than a license...geez.

I actually used RegMon, Forester, to see what I was missing so thanks again. That saved me!

This sounds like a good idea. Portable 100% working versions of SC & BW? I'm game. But, if I understand you correctly - I need to pay 4000$ to do this?

If so, sweet DT - here I come again.

So pray tell how are you using the application right now?
