Will source code be released for StarDraft?
This question was originally posed by StarHack, and then re-iterated several times by programmers interested in seeing how we implimented StarDraft. I can tell you this – that StarDraft is not an MPQ importer – it simply allows you to run patched files off of a subdirectory on your hard drive (one subdirectory per copy of patch loader) as if they were part of the MPQ archive. This does have its advantages, however, since you can still play the original game. In any case, Camelot Systems has no plans to ever release the source code to StarDraft. Source code and/or file specs will be released for each of the add-in utilities that will be published by Camelot Systems following the release of StarDraft.
