I was wondering. since FG currently supports upto 1.15.1. how do you get your graftings to work on 1.15.2 ? sorry if i'm not updated. but ive been searching for any grafting tool for 1.15.2. and i just really don't know how to transfer my mods for 1.15.1 compatible to 1.15.2.

so, there is no other grafting tool out there ? and modders will have to wait for the next FG?

The answer to your question is simple. You can't. Instead you'll just have to downgrade your existing starcraft version back to 1.15.1 in order to play your firegraft mods. Firegraft 1.15.2 WILL come out eventually and you can upgrade your mods with it then however, until then, you'll just have to do it the old fashioned way of downgrading.

Excuse if I make this sound harsh I just find this question very common and annoying.
Why couldn't you have looked for questions alike :p.
Also why do you have to have the newest version,is it cause you do not like downgrading?
Well some of the best modders like Laser_Dude and (a name I can never spell :().
Laser_Dude made free market (a 1.12b mod with euds,triggers,and sexy mod stuff).
The other person is known for his custom AI's,patch 1.10 mods cause he can mod the sprite limit,and just odd unit shapes and sizes.
Btw, if someone can get his name through my head thanks =].

I hope he just waits until 1.16, because 1.15.2 isn't even a real patch. They're bound to release 1.16 really soon, if they care at all anymore.
It's better for people to play mods that are updated version to version since they're more easily and quickly accessible. It's a question of laziness, most people don't want to take the time to downgrade. Maybe you're thinking of Disciple of Adun or IskatuMesk, Iskatu in particular always mods on older versions due to the fact that latest patches really screw up Starcraft's modding capabilities in many ways, like how perfectly normal and flawless iscripts randomly not work or bug out.
But yeah, you'd be better off just modding for 1.15.1.

SCMLoader might be able to make it work. I don't know if it's updated to the latest memory offsets though.
If you don't have any idea what I meant by that, don't bother asking. I'll look into it if I've got some time.

Yeah that is who I was thinking about IskatuMesk he is a great modder who uses patch 1.10 tools :).

well, that is the prob, most people are lazy enough to downgrade, i'm a modder too, like i get the pressure be the one to upgrade my mods to patches that arent supported yet by FG. it's the annoying stuff. yeahm durandal's right, i'll just have to wait for 1.16.
also, only non-grafting files can be loaded to mpq's right? ur dat edits and iscript edits.

You can load any file into an mpq. However starcraft will only use the ones it knows. Meaning, if you placed firegraft files inside, starcraft won't use them.
