How to Play Starcraft Original Brood War Without a CD
If you are a fan of the classic real-time strategy game Starcraft and its expansion Brood War, you might want to play it without having to insert the CD every time. This can be useful if you have lost your CD, your CD drive is broken, or you just want to save some time. Fortunately, there is a way to play Starcraft Original Brood War without a CD, thanks to an official patch from Blizzard that allows you to use files from the game installation folder instead of the CD.
In this article, we will show you how to play Starcraft Original Brood War without a CD on Windows and Mac computers. You will need to have the game installed on your computer and have a valid CD key. You will also need to download and install the latest patch for Starcraft and Brood War, which is version 1.16.1 as of this writing. You can download the patch from Blizzard's website[^1^] or use the game's built-in updater.
Windows Users
Make sure you have \"Hide extensions for known types\" unchecked. To do this, please follow these steps:
Click Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Windows Explorer
Click on Tools -> Folder options (Windows Vista users may have to press the Alt key to see the tools option at the top of the window)
Click on the View Tab
In the list, look for the \"Hide extensions for known file types\" option, and make sure that it is unchecked.
Click OK to save the changes.
Now you will need to copy some files from the Game CDs
If you own only Starcraft, copy \"INSTALL.EXE\" from the Starcraft CD to your Starcraft folder and rename it to \"StarCraft.mpq\".
If you own Starcraft: Brood War, copy \"INSTALL.EXE\" from the Starcraft: Brood War CD to your Starcraft folder and rename it to \"BroodWar.mpq\". If you wish to play the Starcraft original missions then please copy and rename the install file from the original Starcraft CD as well, as listed directly above.
Run the latest patch of Starcraft and/or Brood War for the software to detect the \".mpq\" files.
Mac Users
If you own only Starcraft, copy \"StarCraft Archive\" from the Starcraft CD to your Starcraft/StarCraft Files/ folder.
If you own Starcraft: Brood War, copy \"Brood War Archive\" from the Starcraft: Brood War CD to your Starcraft/StarCraft Files/ folder. If you wish to play the Starcraft original missions then please copy the Starcraft Archive file from the original Starcraft CD as well, as listed directly above.
