You are talking about Starcraft 1 I assume? We all kinda went to gamerangers. It's a neat and tiny tool with which you can easily hook up and play games with good latency. There are instructions on how to sign-up there in this thread *somewhere* or just head over to gameranger.net. Do you have a working retail version (need to be updated, connect to bnet once to make it update).

Yeah, I meant StarCraft I. Also, any idea as to whether that gameranger stuff works in Wine? (Starcraft itself works great, fwiw)
The fediverse needs great indie game developers! Find me there!

Looks like it.

Quote from: Gameranger FAQ
I'm on a Mac. Can I play against my PC friends?
Yes! Some games offer cross-platform play between Mac and PC and are listed here. The others are not compatible at all, usually due to technical reasons with the games themselves. This is not a limitation of GameRanger.

Alternatively, if you have an Intel Mac, you can install Windows on it using Boot Camp, and play your PC friends with all games that way. You will need to get PC versions of those games.

Hm, actually, it doesn't list Starcraft under the supported games. I also suppose you're on a Linux machine right?

Well, we can always go with standard BNET as well. Let me know if you wanna play, I do have some time now.

Hey, dkh, let's meet in sc2 sometime; I need someone to teach me play  :P

Sure, I still have you added so we can talk when we see each other on Bnet 2.0, Crimson. I can't really say when I'll be on since I don't have the time to play "whenever" anymore. :D More like, 30 minutes time for a game or two spontaneously.

And DeadSuperHero, still up for a game of SC1? If you can run Starcraft and enter Battle.net we can play. It still works!

Oh, hello.

I've had very little time to play recently but I'm wanting to pick SC2 up again. In case interested, add me -- Ishmael #694
I used to make games but then I took an IRC in the knee.

<Calin> Ishmael looks awesome all the time

I might just add you guys, since no one I know plays SC2.
