Im getting a "Sc2.exe not found" when i try to launch a map.
Yes, im a noob.

What directory should i have this fcking beta installed in so it can find the exe?

got the same error. any heads up on how to fix it?

PS: i moved the launcher exe into my SC2 dir. same error.

you should not use lazylauncher2 GUI 1.2.2 as of now, as it does the following:

-GUI can detect your SC2 directory and replace the AI file

(which is still 5.5)

i changed a few things and found that the (cheating Terran) AI, which i havnt been able to beat before now, has gotten very easy all of a sudden:

used Lazylauncher v2 isntead of the original one
used the 1.2.2 GUI instead od none
used the maps from the map thread on this board instead of another one i dont remember where i got it from (mappack created by "omnipotent" , is what it says in the readme)
changed gameplay speed settings normal --> faster


will reverse each of these options 1 for one to check wich one affected difficulty.

EDIT: just noticed that on startup it says starcrack v5.5 which explains the drop in difficulty  ...   how did the before mentioned changes affect cause the AI to revert to 5.5 wtf?

Very good job on the AI, I really enjoy playing against it.

I have a suggestion for improving your Zerg AI: It should build an additional hatchery in its main base at some point, as it won't be able to keep up with the other races production pace otherwise. I think this is the reason, why the cheating Zerg AI is significantly easier than the cheating Protoss and Terran AI's, which are the only ones I couldn't beat yet 1v1 (no cheese!). Anyone else experienced this difference in difficulty?

Also, I experienced the following: PvP, AI had like 12 Zealots chasing 8 of mine, my Zealots were forming kind of like a line while retreating. At my base I was like what the heck and decided to fight. Turned out his Zealots were focused on the single one that was on at the end of my "string" of Zealots, so I microed it back, they continued to follow it for like 4-5 seconds which gave my other Zealots time to deal enough damage to offset the AI's advantage.

Keep up the great work!

PS: Can anyone tell me where to get more maps from? Cheers.
