Okay, as I said before, I've been overhauling the menu graphics. For example, here's what I did with the 'expansion selection' screen:

Yes, yes, I know, the beta wouldn't have had that screen. However, seeing as I can't remove the screen in any way, I decided to use it.

Let's load it up in game...

Oh, something's wrong here, somehow I managed to use the wrong colours for parts of it. Never mind, I'll just scribble around with black for a bit and we'll see...

...Clearly I screwed up. Alright, I'll use the colour picker from an area that is working, and...

Success!

Alright, onto other things. This is what I've got for the login screen:

Looks great! Alright, let's load it up in game and see-

OH

MY

GOD

Alright, I honestly have no idea what I did to achieve that. I probably messed up with palettes or something. I'll have to look into this.

Either way, I'll be getting back to the actual beta stuff soon, don't worry. Expect a screenshot batch within the next couple of weeks.

I plan on recreating the alpha, eventually! :D I'll need to get Warcraft II first, but that's definitely a plan of mine.

Not yet, unfortunately. I'm in a campaign contest on Campaign Creations (my username over there is Jim_Raynor), so that's taking precedence. I'm fleshing out some more ideas for the Protoss and Terran, though, and I'll probably have something to show before June.

So the Hydralisk used to have a melee ground attack and a ranged air attack? That would explain why the unit was never shown firing its spines during cutscenes... at least, not until Wings of Liberty.

This oughta be interesting!

That's right! Most of the cinematics were made during StarCraft's development, so you can see a lot of those old things. The ending cinematic with the Gantrithor actually shows Mutalisks firing their acid spray attacks at it. It's pretty funny, actually, how many of these 'beta hints' they left lying around.

It took you guys a while to make an aupdate but where's the morphing of buildings?

The building morphing is still a little problem. I'll demonstrate it as soon as I have something worth showing. Hopefully it'll be soon.

Will you be adding the Independent race back in? (Mercenary biker, etc.)

I do plan on it! It will not be an easy job, though. We'll see how this turns out.
