Widescreen resolution
- This hack may not be compatible with the latest versions of StarCraft and Brood War, and is also unnecessary as of the latest patch --Sagacity159 (talk) 23:36, 22 January 2018 (UTC).
- DO NOT play in Battle.Net while using this hack. You might get banned.
- The single-player portion of the game has been reported to have some bugs when running this solution: Sometimes in the campaign the camera gets stuck and won't scroll anymore. The problem is fixable in this updated version of the Resolution Expander by shifting to 640x480 and then back to the resolution you were in. Some users have reported that the crash that occurs as you complete a level in the campaign is still there. This crash can be fixed by moving the StarCraft folder out of C:/ drive.
