***Thank you for downloading the Legacy of the Confederation campaign first episode: Past Purposes.  We promise to provide you with a campaign experience unlike any other.  Please read this entire file before proceeding to play the series***

INSTALLATION: (WITH STARDRAFT ENHANCEMENT)

1)  First, take the "Legacy" folder contained in THIS zip file and place it in your "Maps" directory in the starcraft main directory.  The proper path is C:\Program Files\Starcraft\maps\Legacy.  (That assumes "C" is your main hard drive.  If not, put whatever letter corresponds to your primary HD)

2)  Each Mission in the first episode comes in a separate "Zip" file.  You will need to use a utility such as "winzip" or "Pkzip" to 'unzip' the files.  Once unzipped, place the mission (LegacyPrologue.scx for example) in the "Legacy" folder that you placed in your maps folder in step #1.

3)  Once the missions are in your "Maps" folder, look for something in the legacy folder called "ConFed-Episode_1.exe".  Double click on that, and when the ConFed symbol pops up, select "OK" and on the next screen, select the "starcraft" icon, NOT the "staredit" icon.  Starcraft Broodwar will fire up at that point and will be patched to contain the new hero voices from this episode.

4)  Then just go to "single player", select "Play custom" and in the custom screen, find the legacy folder and select "LegacyPrologue.scx" (the first mission of the series.)  

5)  The mission will start at this point, all we can say is hold onto your seats.

6)  ***Note:  If you don't download all of the maps at once, and you "win" the maps you do have, eventually you'll see a message after you win that says "Unable to find specified campaign file."  At that point you'll need to go download the next episode and manually select it on the custom screen.  (If you download all at once, the maps will automatically carry you to the next one, so you won't need to do anything after starting the Prologue)


INSTALLATION: (WITH SOUND FOLDER)

1)  Take the folder "SOUND" and place it in your MAIN Starcraft directory.  The final path should be C:\program files\starcraft\sound\

2)  If you already have a folder named sound, rename it something else temporarily so that the one from Legacy will work.  After you're done with the legacy campaign, go ahead and rename the old folder sound to restore it.

3)  The actual campaign MISSIONS need to go in your maps directory.  The prologue comes in a folder called "Legacy".  It is advised you store all of the ConFed maps in that legacy folder.  C:\program files\starcraft\maps\legacy\

4)  Now, go to single player in broodwar, select "Play Custom", go to the legacy folder, and find a mission called "LegacyPrologue.scx."

5)  That's it, hold onto your seat.

6)  ***Note:  If you don't download all of the maps at once, and you "win" the maps you do have, eventually you'll see a message after you win that says "Unable to find specified campaign file."  At that point you'll need to go download the next episode and manually select it on the custom screen.  (If you download all at once, the maps will automatically carry you to the next one, so you won't need to do anything after starting the Prologue)


REMINDERS:

1)  Don't use CHEATS.  The ConFed maps are VERY trigger intensive.  If you use cheats, some of the triggers may not fire correctly.  Just take it as a word to the wise, do not use any single player cheat codes.  If you do, NexusCore Ltd. will not be held responsible if the maps do not perform correctly.

2)  SAVE OFTEN.  These are expert level maps, and you could 'lose' at any time if you're not careful.  Save often so that if you DO lose, you don't have to start all the way from the map's beginning.

3)  Avoid using the ESC key if possible.  Many triggers in this campaign are long strings and if you use ESC to end a trigger, you may miss an important event in one of the missions.

4)  You NEED BroodWar installed on your computer to play the ConFed campaign.  It is also recommended that you have a computer with at least 32 MB Ram and 150 Mhz, due to the unit intensive nature of several of the maps.
