Greetings, OwnedCore, I hope I post this in a right section. If it's not, mods, please feel free to move it.
Firstly, most of you probably know about this one already, but I thought, I'd post it here to spread it a little. Secondly, this is in no way my work, all credit goes to the fantastic guys over at starfriend.info/battle4sc2.com.
Now, what is Starfriend?
Starfriend is a software, that enables playing Starcraft 2 over LAN (and therefore Hamachi) by emulating the battle.net servers.
It's of course still in development, and therefore there's still a plenty of bugs. In 0.54, only 1v1 is enabled, support for more players is coming soon though. Starfriend supports latest SC2 version (1.3.6) and all client locales except zhCN.
How to install and use Starfriend?
- Download map cache from: MapCache_1.3.6_New.rar
- Place the map cache in \ProgramData\Blizzard Entainment\ and in your Starcraft 2 folder (Stacraft II\Blizzard Entertainment)
- Download Starfriend from: StarFriendBeta_0.54.rar
- Extract all the files in Starfriend archive to your Starcraft 2 folder
- Start the server, and then start the game
- Log in with username: [email protected] and password: gg
I hope, that's all, have fun.
Woops, there's the virustotal scan: VirusTotal - Free Online Virus, Malware and URL Scanner
(the results are probably false-positives, I tested the files myself and everything is fine)
