Patched / Modified Files
This section provides files for Blizzard games that have been modified/updated by fans and not by Blizzard. For this reason you use them on your own risk and you shouldn't mail to Blizzard about problems occuring in connection to these files. I'd advice you to backup all necessary files of a game before you modify them.
At first of all you will need a MPQ editor like WinMPQ or MPQ2k. Go to my download index to find out more about them. Probably you want to use better MPQ listfiles (e.g.: for WinMPQ). If this is the case, you have to go to my MPQ Research page to download the newest listfiles.
I don't make here a turtorial on how to use WinMPQ/MPQ2k. The manuals given with WinMPQ/MPQ2k are detailed enough to tell you how to use these tools. I just tell you in which MPQ you should put them and which path they should have inside the MPQ

German bugfixes
pack
In the german Starcraft a little bug was created by Blizzard, that shows the names
of the missions of Episode 1 to 3 in english. The mistake they made is that the
translation team of Broodwar just translated the files for Episode 4 to 6 so the
other episodes are back in English if you have a German Starcraft and you install
a German Broodwar. I tried to point that out to Blizzard, but they didn't understand
me.

This file contains the names of the mission in the start mission selection screen. I've fixed the bug that in Episode 1 to 3 the missions are displayed in English. | BW 1.04 - 1.09b | Starcraftfreak |

The German epilogue of the normal Starcraft was after updating to Broodwar in English. I just grabbed the epilogue from the normal Starcraft CD. | BW 1.04 -1.09b | Starcraftfreak |

Beta Death
and Decay
Blizzard has changed some graphics in the retail version. Some fans don't like the
purple and pink Death and Decay spell graphics. So Devourer has posted on
the Infoceptor Forums that he has extracted the beta graphics and put them for download.

| Filename | Target MPQ | Path | Description | Created / Submitted by |
| DeathandDecayDamage.mdx | War3Patch.mpq or war3.mpq | Abilities\Spells\Undead\DeathandDecay\ | Replaces the graphics for Death and Decay with the beta graphics | Blizzard / Devourer |
| DeathandDecayTarget.mdx | War3Patch.mpq or war3.mpq | Abilities\Spells\Undead\DeathandDecay\ | Blizzard / Devourer |
Note: I'd rather put them into War3Patch.mpq than war3.mpq because the you don't have to replace files. Files inside of War3Patch.mpq have for Warcraft III a higher priority than files in war3.mpq. That means that the retail graphics of Death and Decay (inside war3.mpq) remain untouched because Warcraft III takes the files of War3Patch.mpq with higher priority. And to restore the retail default you just have to delete the two files you added to War3Patch.mpq. But I'd make a backup anyway, because if something goes wrong you have to reinstall Warcraft III.
If you want to submit a file or want to report a bug occuring with a file provided here, send an email to scfreak045@hotmail.com. Don't send to the submitter, if necessary I'll contact them on my own.
