Protoss Mineral Exploit In Action

[yezero 16]

Unfortunately, I forgot to save the replay, but I'll try to describe what I observed during a 2v2 match where everyone agreed to the use of mineral & map hacks etc.

So basically it was going to be an all out Zerg fest of epic proportions.

 

For some reason, this guy called 'engimaxxx' or something along those lines, chose Protoss instead of Zerg of which we initially agreed on. We thought it was kinda stupid on his behalf. So the game starts.

 

Taking a sneak peak via the maphack showed something interesting about the engimaxxx guy - he wasn't mining. At all. But he seemed to have enough minerals to build shit left and right.

 

And regarding his building speed, it was extremely fast and efficient. He seemed to be warping in 3 buildings at a time in a linear pattern throughout his base. It seemed automated.

 

i.e.

 

Gateway - Pylon - Gateway

Gateway - Pylon - Gateway

Gateway - Pylon - Gateway

Gateway - Pylon - Gateway

Gateway - Pylon - Gateway

Gateway - Pylon - Gateway

Gateway - Pylon - Gateway

Gateway - Pylon - Gateway

 

 

In a matter of about 8 or so minutes.

We were then attacked by about 40 of his Dragoons soon after. So we got raped pretty bad.

 

I took a glimpse at the post-game statistics under the Resources tab, this 'engimaxxx' guy, apparently had only mined about 206 Minerals. So how the fk did he afford 12 gateways and 40 Dragoons?!

 

Anyone care to enlighten me?

I can hardly believe you forgot to save the replay. I need the copy of the map.

[Suteki 114]

It was probably a UMS. And if you forgot to save the replay, go into your starcraft replay folder and so long as you didn't play another game you can get the replay called "LastReplay" from your Starcraft>Maps>Replay folder. Starcraft Automatically saves your last game for you. Get that and PM me.

OMFG? sweet a toss mineral hack. the automated building is also very interesting, like suteki said it could have been a UMS, if he was the host he could have altered the map so that a certain player gets a shit load of minerals, then maybe as a cover he decided to mine so that it looked like he was doing something. About the building thing, maybe just bot automated, they make bots for everything im sure a builder bot would not be that hard to execute. Maybe you might want to message this guy if you haven't already.

 

I myself would love to see that replay, i hardly play any melee or FFA maps so this would be a double delight ^^

It's not a very common name. Only 1 result in google.

Google has just raped my soul. :) :)

I believe it is a quite easily made common name, except no one thinks of it.

so this was a melee map... you sure you weren't dreaming?

Interesting. I wished you saved the replay; I'm really interested in watching it.

I find that kind of impossible, must have been a really skilled hacker or something.

Damn I thought it was Enigma. Sounds cooler, ya know.

He just made it up. Otherwise he (or someone else that was in the match, since all of them were cheaters and would have known how valuable a protoss mineral hack would be) would have posted the replay.

[yezero 16]

He was godlike, and seemed to be doing 5 things at once.

 

But regarding the building, how hard is it to implement an auto-build hack, which takes into account how much resources you have, and then attempt to build a predefined matrix of buildings.

 

i.e. lets say for example

c = Photon Cannons

p = Pylons

g = Gateways

 

And in the config you have:

Definekey F1

[x][x][x][g]

[x][y][x][g]

[x][x][x][g]

 

Build order

g,y,x

 

And pressing F1 in-game allows to build that matrix in that order, pausing / starting automatically depending on how much mineral/gas you have until all 12 buildings are completed.

 

With that in mind, is there anything out here which allows you to say for example by pressing F3 - you will cause every Gateway you have to warp "ie: a Dragoon" and then have them all multi-selected bound to a predefined key. How will this work in-game?

 

You've got 20 gateways. You press F3. All 20 Gateways will add 1 Dragoon to the spawn queue. Once they've all appeared, they are bound to ie: key 6. Pressing 6 will select all 20 dragoons and you can direct them where ever.

 

The moment they die? Press F3 again and you'll have another wave of 20 Dragoons ready.

I've only cheated for 3 days, I thought there were mineral exploits for Protoss and Terran besides the Zerg one. It was only after searching around for them that it became clear Protoss/Terran mineral hacks didn't exist for the latest Starcraft patch. Had I known this, I would've saved it.

Then why'd you think it was stupid that he didn't choose zerg?

[Magical_Trever 60]

Then why'd you think it was stupid that he didn't choose zerg?

because usually when you 1vs1 with zerg you hack which means he coulda won....

You'd only think that if you knew there aren't hacks for protoss and terran, though, which he claims he didn't.

[Suteki 114]

I already told you that it didn't matter if you didn't save it, go to "LastReplay" upload and PM it.

[Azu 24]

I'm sure he knows that to. He has to be deliberately obtuse for his story to have any merit, though.

[Yoshiman03 0]

In regards to the building thing, its called multi-command, just click a gateway and alt, hotkey the bastards, and whenever you need to build units, press one again and press 'G' or whatever the shortcut is. as for the mineral hack thing im starting to believe that maybe you had someone else's glasses wrong and thought....well....all of his zerg units <.<......Looked like toss units......><

 

starting to believe that you might be telling porky pies, lol

 

 

Sorry to double post, but i decided to to do a little research through a more reliable source than wikipedia (ZOMGAWD I bullshits <.<) and i found this post on Bwhacks:

 

http://www.bwhacks.com/forums/starcraft-ha...ral-hack-3.html

 

From what I read there is actually a terran and toss exploit for minerals and gas, and apparently the only way to get is to pay $20 so the creator... I don't know whether or not this is legitimate and I don't have the cash to try it.

If your interested in actually reading it the is a fucking shit load of spam in there and basically all i got from 3 pages of posts is that there is such a thing, it costs you money, there is a lot of anger at BWhacks, and that people actually sign up to hack site for StarCraft and then flame at the people for you wouldn't believe it, zomgawd Hacking :o you wouldn't believe it a hack site that actually has hacks on it :o

Upon further research i have come across an actual saved replay of a user apparently using the mineral hack on Protoss.

 

http://www.battlereports.com/viewreplays.php?replaynum=30890

 

I haven't checked it out myself but im sure someone will and reply by the time i check this again tomorrow and can tell us whether or not this hack is a legitimate thing <.<.

[Union1 33]

The terran and protoss mineral hack exists. You might get an insight on how to make it if you google search bw chart

[Azu 24]

Eh I think you linked the wrong replay? He's just mining and building probes, no hax.

[Union1 33]

what you talking about Azu? By that you mean that you think im telling him to use bw chart on that replay?

 

Anyway im not all im telling you is that if you read the description of the current ver of bwchart you will see a basic idea of how the terran and toss mineral hack work. Not that you would understand it.

[Azu 24]

I was talking to the person who posted a link to a replay, not you.

[Union1 33]

k, wahts that replay about
