note: The playonlinux forums do not work and I don't know where else to put this bug report.

This is using the original disk to install the game that were released.

The Starcraft: Brood War install does not work. I get an error message saying that it can't find the original Starcraft install even though that game is installed. I tried installing Brood War with Starcraft in the following states.

  1. Base install
  2. Base install with 1.15 patch
  3. Base install with 1.15.2 patch

edit:
I noticed when I inspected the Wine directories that there were two wine directories for Starcraft. This is a bug. Starcraft: Brood War is suppose to install in inside the same directory as Starcraft. It is not suppose to create its own directory. From using this in the past, it didn't use to do this. Someone must have modified the install file which is how this bug got introduced.

edit2: The only fix that needs to be done is for Starcraft BroodWar CD installation directory to be changed to the same directory that Starcraft CD installation uses. All the patches use the correct directory.
