~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ StarCraft: Dark Dawn by Scott L. Howe with special thanks to Ronnie Smith Version 1.0 December 3, 1998 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dark Dawn is a full thrity mission campaign continuing straight off of the last mission of Starcraft. It also ends where Blizzard's upcoming Brood Wars begins. There are ten Zerg missions, ten Terran missions, and ten Protoss missions, in that order. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Notice: This version starts with the zerg, then it will tell you what to do next. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dark Dawn is available absolutely free, with no obligations. If you like Dark Dawn, please feel free to send a donation of at least US $5.00. Play it first, and see if you like. Like I said, no obligations. It took over 100 hours of development. Those of you who enjoy one-player campaigns should like Dark Dawn. It should be more than enough to tide you over until Brood Wars is released, and I sure that it won't be less than $5.00. As a side note, if I get enough positive feedback, I will create another thrity mission add-on to Brood Wars, available absolutely free. Dark Dawn Scott L. Howe 4690 Co. Rd.

If not you must manually copy them to the maps directory for Starcraft to find them. Then you must copy the directory \dark dawn\sound to your main \starcraft directory. This will enable the special Hellbringer personality. It is not necessary to do this to play Dark Dawn, but it is recommended. Also, when you're not playing Dark Dawn, you might want to rename the \sound directory to \soundx or something else. If you don't, the Hellbringer personality will remain during non-Dark Dawn game play. After you do this select "load custom game" and select Zerg1.scm or the race that you choose to play. Be sure to use "map settings." Sometimes when you save your game and return to it and finish the level, the next level will not be loaded because of a campaign editor bug. Just select the next level manually and continue playing. The Terran missions are under another subdirectory named \Terrans and the Protoss missions are under \Protoss. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If anyone intends to widely distribute Dark Dawn, for free of course, please contact me (Ronnie) at stubbs23@hotmail.com.
