[Storm_Tyrant]

i used to be good at it i had a few popular maps but after reading these boards im realizing there is allot i know nothing about, what is moding exactly? what programs should i get? is there a place where i can download moded units like a flame throwing probe or something, im usualy good with this type of thing, just need a lil more info to get started with more of the advanced parts of making maps, thanks....and check out my post for SEA BATTLE HERO = )

A mod is an altered version of StarCraft, very different from a map.

StarCraft.Org has more info.

Storm_Tyrant: You're not alone here! I've actually made a couple of campaigns myself -- although those never got anywhere because I don't even know the first A of modding. I wouldn't download very much software, though. Some of it could carry some serious viruses, man.

So you dont trust starcraft.org to not have viruses huh? tsk tsk...
