THANK YOU! It was so easy to this watching your tutorial on my phone at the same time I was doing it step by step. Very comprehensive tutorial and extremely user friendly. Thanks for doing this for all of us noobs. The written guide explains pretty much what you said, but it leaves some details out, personally this tutorial helped me a lot. Thank you.
To any one having problem with "Mods and Maps are no longer available" the installation v5.3 look if you added Cinematics (optinal file) to your mod folder, I know it says optional but if you reed below it It says that you need to add it in order for the mod to work.
Thank you very much for the guide. Need more people like you. Now I can recall back the story. Too bad they didn't include cinematic scene from the original one. Anyway great work from you guys.
I think the next version will have the cinematics. Someone found a way to get them into the maps without the file becoming enormous, which was the original limitation.
Followed the *video guide to the letter: "The launch of this game makes reference to mod or map references which are no longer available." *I went back over the steps, I tried launching the campaign via the Editor. "Dependency file could not be found Mods\SCMRcinematics.SC2Mod." **I had to go back to SC2Mapster and download the cinematic(s) files and replace the Launcher in Mass Recall's folder and now it works.
JayborinoPlays I'm having the same issue but when I try to unzip the file into mods it has an error and I'm not sure why. If you could help when you have a chance I would be immensely appreciated.
Maxwell Gulsvig When you have the SCMRcinematics folder u need to put the mod from to the folder to the mods folder of SC 2 . After you did that you can put the SCMRcinematics and the launcher to maps
I had the same problem as most of people here. When I clicked on "Test Document", SC2 says "this map cannot be opened in Starter Edition". I have both WoL and HotS in full version, and I have everything in the right place.
Hello! I' ve watched your video, followed step by step. When i try to open SCMRsetup.SC2.Map, it opens with the editor and in the left bottom corner it says < [2/4/2015 1:27:03 AM] Warning: Unable to load 'MapInfo' from 'Untitled Map' >. Its verrry frustating. I cannot play the campains either, it says unable to load map. Any advice will be apreciated :)
I think it may be because my guide is for 5.1 and the current version is 5.2. In 5.2, Telenil seems to have changed the file structure from when you unzip the directories. The most important thing is making sure the mod file is unpacked and under the Mods folder and that you Map files have the same structure as my video has them around 6:20. Regardless of how things unpack, if you manually make the directories that way then, one way or another, it should work.
JayborinoPlays The files are in the right place, the SCMR Campain Launcher is about 13.8 mb, other than that all is good. I think the problem lies somewhere else.
Clonda Stefan Are you loading the campaign launcher from inside the editor? The last thing I can think of is possibly opening the editor, then opening the SCMR launcher from inside the editor. I know that's nitpicky, but I've had to do this specifically in order to launch some other custom campaign launchers that I've played - where I would just double click the launcher map file from Windows Explorer, but then just load up an empty map.
Clonda Stefan I should also add that 5.3 should be out soon. I'm not sure what polishing is left, but I know Telenil has included an installer to do everything automatically for players.
Amazing! Walkthrough! Thank you very much! I thought I had done everything correctly but when I tried to launch it was saying that it can't... I started to get quite annoyed.. But you helped me! Thank you!
I have a problem with the downloads. It keeps saying that several files are broken. Currently all Iron Fist files are broken for me. Its the only download that wont go through all the other maps went through though.
Thanks for your installation guide but i have a problem. everything works fine, the menu is show and the cinematics work but after it says "uneable to open maps" and it close...
I downloaded the full English version, but it is all in Deutsch, subtitles aside. I know German, but I'd rather play a videogame in English. Does anybody know what the problem may be?
Does someone know why the hotkeys work like shit? if i set a key to unload all, the cancel key deletes itself, the same with half construction, if i set the cloak key to something it unbinds stim pack, i can't get shit to work
I followed everything step by step and it says to buy the full version of starcraft 2; the thing is i have the full version already. I also dont have the "change modmap vc 3.3 file". please help?
MegaNovaNation Hey, there's instructions on the download page and also an installer that theoretically should do the install for you these days, you should go check it out.
look's like the mod isnt supported in my case all of this is followed when i click that icon in the test wings of liberty activates and says map no found and its just the regular starcraft 2 anyone know a solution bcs this is rly annoying i;v tried everything
do you need the expansion cause i did it all and it says i dont have the dependency files for the expansion and wont load the maps, nvm i figured it out....lol
have a problem( thx blizzard bug) if i click scmrsetup or scmr campaign laucher, ok its start and loading but next in the end, its say me "warning" you must log in to blizzard to authenticate your SC2 acount before using the editor" i click yes, i write my account + password and its say me next " warning, this blizzard account has no SC2 character associated wich it, please log in from the game first to create a character, then try again are you kidding me, i have a character and i have Sc2 x year and sc remastered ~ 1 year, so I dont know what to do now
"The launch of this game makes references to mod or map dependencies which are no longer available" I get this error after the campaign loading screen. Does it have somthing to do with the cinematics mod that it says is required on mapster? I noticed you did not install that. Any help would be well appreciated. Thanks!
It seems that this mod doesnt work with the non-legit copy. It just gives "unable to open map" error whenever the SCMRsetup is launched or when any campaign is launched from SCMRCampaignLauncher. No idea why it happens, it should work without problems, after all its just a mod that launches custom maps and the maps themselves are opening fine in the map editor. Anyway, that sucks :/ EDIT: Also, if anyone expects to have 100% same SC1 in SC2 - you will be disappointed. I've viewed some maps in editor and they arent exactly like in SC1 - geo-wise they are different, like in some places there are no ramps that were there originally or some higher grounds are shaped differently
Profane92 This install is outdated and you most likely have something in the wrong place. Check the link in the description for a newer installation video.
Yeah 5.4.1 is the latest mod version and map pack 1. Map packs 2 and 3 are still at version 5.4.0, but that's what they should be and they are compatible.
it said me i need buy the starcarft 2 to play it... (i have bought the starcraft 2) then i thin i need buy the hearth of the swarm to pay it... shit...
Hey, uh... None of the Brood War missions work right. There's no briefing, no objectives, no scripts. Oddly enough the three original campaigns work without skipping a beat, as does Chau Sara series and Ressurection IV
Maybe it's an issue with the mod - try re-downloading the mod from the download page. Make sure to use the English link because if you hit download in the upper right it will download the Russian version. Then make sure you unzip the mod in the mods folder.
does this work for cracked sc hots versions? mine is retro mod and it says unable to open map. when i tested the document they gave me an error and one of them was "unable to find impaler sound" or whatever
Tyler Thoren Well that's weird, the mods folder is there with the base game because that's where the WoL and HotS mods are. Make sure you're in the Program Files Starcraft folder, not the one in My Docs
Makes sure the Extras folder is extracted under the Mass Recall folder where the other 6 campaign folders live. So you should see Maps > Starcraft Mass Recall > Extras > all the extras junk
I have a question about the enslaver remake. Is there supposed to me no sound or dialog during the cutscenes? Because I keep get the beeping sound thus no sound or dialog
JayborinoPlays can u make a tutorial video of installing the remake map of Enslavers and Dark Vengeance campaign and walk through? I am having a trouble downloading it and curious about the unknown campaign from Blizzard :D
It works basically the same. It uses the SCMR mod in the same folder. The maps need to be in folders called Enslavers and Dark Vengeance respectively under the Maps directory in Starcraft. There is no launcher, you have to load from the Galaxy Editor. The first briefing just doesn't have sound, only the briefing beeps. Also, neither ever had any spoken dialogue in the originals, so that is normal.
+Moonlite360 I've tried with the recent 5.4.2 version, everything EXCEPT cinematics works... I've got a black screen with video subtitles but no video and no sound... the rest of the game works perfectly though.
I did.... annnd i cannot play the game. the moment I try to even launch a map, it says unable to find map. and everything's where they should be *ergo the maps folder is in the SC II install directory and so on* anfd when I try to open any of the campaign maps via editor... I get the infamous unable to extract mapinfro from untitled map issue
JayborinoPlays Yepp. extracted the Retro Mod files into the Mods Folder and the SCMR Maps into the installed disk > SCII > Maps*created folder* >Starcraft Mass Recall here's some pics mods folder: i601.photobucket.com/albums/tt95/psycolord/mods_zpsef685586.png map folder: i601.photobucket.com/albums/tt95/psycolord/maps_zps83fc0901.png I can open the launcher without issue...... its when I play a map that things go downhill
And i Aprichiate that you talk abouth everything but could you maby make one that is like a bit faster :) other then that im realy glad for this video. but while watching your video i think im realy glad that you talk abouth things :D
JayborinoPlays thanks a lot :D and i did saw that and i can play it now thx anyway and it was a realy helpfull video bytheway. ps i have bad gramma if its hard to read. :)
oh it does if u launch the Level Editor then open the "Launch campaign" map and hit test document. Currently looking into a work around so u can select more then just "Terran" episode 1 maps. :P
It's 13 minutes talk when you'd need 5 MAXIMUM ! You talk too much, too much digression too much on "what you can", "what you can't", "this/that was made for...." yada yada... You talk and explain so many unessesary stuff that in the end it make this guide very, very UNCLEAR. Maybe MOD is worth playing but after this guide I got no desire to play it. Way too complicated.
Very nice of you to make a guide to help people installing Mass Recall. This mod is just so much fun.
THANK YOU! It was so easy to this watching your tutorial on my phone at the same time I was doing it step by step. Very comprehensive tutorial and extremely user friendly.

Thanks dude after a lot of bs of me i tried from scratch following your directions and nicely done now! RIP life... ;-)
Excellent tutorial man, keep up the good stuff bro!
Awesome! Thankyou for the help with this!
Thank you very much for the guide. Need more people like you. Now I can recall back the story. Too bad they didn't include cinematic scene from the original one. Anyway great work from you guys.
I think the next version will have the cinematics. Someone found a way to get them into the maps without the file becoming enormous, which was the original limitation.
JayborinoPlays hmmm so if they gonna do that, i think i gonna stop playing for a while. do you know when they gonna release the next version? eta?
Followed the *video guide to the letter: "The launch of this game makes reference to mod or map references which are no longer available." *I went back over the steps, I tried launching the campaign via the Editor. "Dependency file could not be found Mods\SCMRcinematics.SC2Mod."
**I had to go back to SC2Mapster and download the cinematic(s) files and replace the Launcher in Mass Recall's folder and now it works.
They must have just uploaded 5.3 - I'll have to make a new install video
JayborinoPlays I believe the upload date of the cinematic file was 2 / 19 / 15.
JayborinoPlays I'm having the same issue but when I try to unzip the file into mods it has an error and I'm not sure why. If you could help when you have a chance I would be immensely appreciated.

Drew Müller Forget it ...I can't start the missions.
When i start the Mass Recall Menu it says Mods and Maps are no longer available

JayborinoPlays Hey! Thanks for info, but it doesn't work! :(
So i'll wait for v 5.3 :)
What a nice guy.
Amazing! Walkthrough! Thank you very much! I thought I had done everything correctly but when I tried to launch it was saying that it can't... I started to get quite annoyed.. But you helped me! Thank you!
Broken after 3.0 patch, lighting problems, roads are turning black, flickering ugh.
i keep getting "unable to open map" when i try to play.
And when i try to open mission maps thay can not find the Mod for some strange reason.
Thanks so much for this guide. You're the man, man
I have a problem with the downloads. It keeps saying that several files are broken. Currently all Iron Fist files are broken for me. Its the only download that wont go through all the other maps went through though.
Thanks for your installation guide but i have a problem. everything works fine, the menu is show and the cinematics work but after it says "uneable to open maps" and it close...
Thank you sooooo much for this. for all the stuff! this is great!
Thank you so much! Because of this video I was finally able to make this work!
I downloaded the full English version, but it is all in Deutsch, subtitles aside. I know German, but I'd rather play a videogame in English. Does anybody know what the problem may be?
Thank you for this installation guide
thank you for this installation video. very easy to follow
I can't change my keybinds for some reason, they get all messed up when I try to change them in Mass Recall. It never saves the changes I make..
Can someone link me the save please? It tells me ''You can not play this map with Starter Edition'' even though i got HoTS DELUXE
nicely done!
Thanks!, very good explanation.
thanks you for doing this bro i always have trouble dl mods idk why wow was easy but this has a lil more to it lol

I followed everything step by step and it says to buy the full version of starcraft 2; the thing is i have the full version already. I also dont have the "change modmap vc 3.3 file". please help?
I found it not being able to adapt the new patch, it keeps saying that mod dependencies are not available any more. Can someone help please?
Jay, plz make a new walkthrough on downloading asap. This is infuriating me beyond belief.
MegaNovaNation Hey, there's instructions on the download page and also an installer that theoretically should do the install for you these days, you should go check it out.

How come noone has uploaded this to Blizz archive of playable mods
"The launch of this game makes references to mod or map dependencies which are no longer available" I get this error after the campaign loading screen. Does it have somthing to do with the cinematics mod that it says is required on mapster? I noticed you did not install that. Any help would be well appreciated. Thanks!
When i try to save it says save failed
Can you help me out with 5.4?
I don't have Mod folder. What can I do please?.
It seems that this mod doesnt work with the non-legit copy. It just gives "unable to open map" error whenever the SCMRsetup is launched or when any campaign is launched from SCMRCampaignLauncher. No idea why it happens, it should work without problems, after all its just a mod that launches custom maps and the maps themselves are opening fine in the map editor. Anyway, that sucks :/

where do you install this mod in wings of liberty or heart of the swarm or legacy of the void?
Unable to open map still...
What if it says unable to open maps
mellonator 123 Same problem. Help?
Profane92 This install is outdated and you most likely have something in the wrong place. Check the link in the description for a newer installation video.
JayborinoPlays Thanks for quick response. 5.4.1 is the latest, isnt it?
Yeah 5.4.1 is the latest mod version and map pack 1. Map packs 2 and 3 are still at version 5.4.0, but that's what they should be and they are compatible.
then it simply do not work for me, did everything as explained. twice. Good thing i have the original in my bnet acc :P
Please, how do I unninstall it?
i didn`t have HotS but i can use it with WoL?
it said me i need buy the starcarft 2 to play it... (i have bought the starcraft 2) then i thin i need buy the hearth of the swarm to pay it... shit...
Hey, uh...
None of the Brood War missions work right.
There's no briefing, no objectives, no scripts.
Oddly enough the three original campaigns work without skipping a beat, as does Chau Sara series and Ressurection IV
JAY! WANT. THAT. DESKTOP! WHERE! MUST. FIND!
I don't get it, why am I still getting the Unable to open map error :(
I even tried directly opening a map from the editor itself.
Is the Mod in the Mods folder?
Yes
Weird... do you have a legit copy of the game? Other than the file structure, I'm unsure what would keep causing this problem.
JayborinoPlays I am having the same issue, and I do have the a legit copy of SC2
Maybe it's an issue with the mod - try re-downloading the mod from the download page. Make sure to use the English link because if you hit download in the upper right it will download the Russian version. Then make sure you unzip the mod in the mods folder.
unable to open map?
does this work for cracked sc hots versions? mine is retro mod and it says unable to open map. when i tested the document they gave me an error and one of them was "unable to find impaler sound" or whatever
No idea, sorry
What if you dont have a "mods folder" ?? I have nowhere to put that third download.... Help??
Tyler Thoren Well that's weird, the mods folder is there with the base game because that's where the WoL and HotS mods are. Make sure you're in the Program Files Starcraft folder, not the one in My Docs
Thanks thats what I did I'll try redoing it now.
The campaign missions work but I can't play the extra missions.
Makes sure the Extras folder is extracted under the Mass Recall folder where the other 6 campaign folders live. So you should see Maps > Starcraft Mass Recall > Extras > all the extras junk
Thanks, worked like a charm. Oh do you know of any Warcraft 2/3 campaign mods in the works?
how do u save in game and where d u find it?
I have a question about the enslaver remake. Is there supposed to me no sound or dialog during the cutscenes? Because I keep get the beeping sound thus no sound or dialog
I'm not sure about Enslavers since it's a different mod. I booted it up once and the sounds worked for me though.
JayborinoPlays can u make a tutorial video of installing the remake map of Enslavers and Dark Vengeance campaign and walk through? I am having a trouble downloading it and curious about the unknown campaign from Blizzard :D
It works basically the same. It uses the SCMR mod in the same folder. The maps need to be in folders called Enslavers and Dark Vengeance respectively under the Maps directory in Starcraft.

hm i installed th campain, but I can not produce Medics,m is that normal or a bug ?
KRISHNAWARRIOR there were no medics in SC1 :)
Is this working with the free edition of SC2?
Soo is anyone else having trouble with 5.3? I can launch from the editor but not from B-Net
it says "The launch of this game makes reference to mod or map dependencies which are no longer available."
Moonlite360 I have the same problem m8...did you find any solution?? :/
Not yet.. still playing it from the editor.. the cinematic doesn't work either..
+Moonlite360 I've tried with the recent 5.4.2 version, everything EXCEPT cinematics works... I've got a black screen with video subtitles but no video and no sound... the rest of the game works perfectly though.
Kewl Good to know.. i'll update it..
Do I have to buy the game or I can play it from the trail version?
Fck you need to have at least wings of liberty or hearth of the swarn to make this mode to tun
please tell me , what im gonna do if i havent got "Maps" folder , sry for my mistakes
Даниил Мамиев You will need to create one yourself if it's not there. Under the Starcraft 2 directory, right click > New > Folder > name it Maps
JayborinoPlays I fixed it thank you very much !!!!
soooooo I still need the SCMR mod files if I want to use the models in the Retro edition mod?
No, if you want the Retro mod stuff, download SCMRMod Retro Edition instead and put it in the same place as I put the normal mod
I did.... annnd i cannot play the game. the moment I try to even launch a map, it says unable to find map. and everything's where they should be *ergo the maps folder is in the SC II install directory and so on* anfd when I try to open any of the campaign maps via editor... I get the infamous unable to extract mapinfro from untitled map issue
Hmmm, well, I have no idea. Are all the map/mod files extracted?
JayborinoPlays Yepp. extracted the Retro Mod files into the Mods Folder and the SCMR Maps into the installed disk > SCII > Maps*created folder* >Starcraft Mass Recall
here's some pics
mods folder:
i601.photobucket.com/albums/tt95/psycolord/mods_zpsef685586.png
map folder:
i601.photobucket.com/albums/tt95/psycolord/maps_zps83fc0901.png
I can open the launcher without issue...... its when I play a map that things go downhill
dragonfable66 Hey, sorry for the delay. Try re-downloading as the newest version of the Retro mod has been released. This should fix any issues.
SCMR_v8.0.1 does not have Setup. Why even make mods just to waste people's time?
what if u don't have a folder named mods there. will that be a problem
You have to create one
Thanks
Thank you.
Thanks a lot!!!
Hey if u dont have the Mod folder Should i just make one?
And i Aprichiate that you talk abouth everything but could you maby make one that is like a bit faster :) other then that im realy glad for this video. but while watching your video i think im realy glad that you talk abouth things :D
There's a link in the description for a newer, shorter one.
JayborinoPlays thanks a lot :D and i did saw that and i can play it now thx anyway and it was a realy helpfull video bytheway. ps i have bad gramma if its hard to read. :)
Will it work if i dont have a battle.net account?
I think it used to if you launched form the editor, but now the editor checks your log on info I think.
OK, it wont work on Wings of Liberty?
Can you just tell me can i get hots bnet acc for free?
And so i should have 1 maps folder before?
how the hell you gonna play SC2 if you don't have battlenet account?
idk, but i play offline with reloaded
THANKS
I ONLY HAVE MAP BUT NOT MOD
Thx !
great !!
Too bad Mass Recall doesn't work with starter edition.Nice video ::)
oh it does if u launch the Level Editor then open the "Launch campaign" map and hit test document. Currently looking into a work around so u can select more then just "Terran" episode 1 maps. :P
It's 13 minutes talk when you'd need 5 MAXIMUM ! You talk too much, too much digression too much on "what you can", "what you can't", "this/that was made for...." yada yada...
You talk and explain so many unessesary stuff that in the end it make this guide very, very UNCLEAR. Maybe MOD is worth playing but after this guide I got no desire to play it. Way too complicated.
Alright, make your own tutorial then dickmouth. Oh right apparently you're unable to use the provided INSTALLER THAT DOES IT FOR YOU.
Thank you for this installation guide
