Warcraft 2 port to html5?
« on: September 09, 2015, 06:57:07 PM »
I just saw that Starcraft was just ported over to HTML5 and includes all original assets. It's said to be a little rough, but done.

I'm no programmer/developer so I am truly clueless on the complexities. Would it run as well in a browser and if so is this a possibility for Wacraft2? Any benefits from a user experience or admin perspective of porting?

Well this thread belongs to mods section have this thread moved there.

Also yes I'm looking for someone to do graphic work and I'm down to learn anything I was talking about this with GML. It's totally capable even android too, Game maker is where I started learning to write code.

I've tried it but its slow as shit.  I dont think it's a practical method of playing war2 nor SC.  Things as simple as screen scrolling require keyboard use since you cant lock the mouse into a portion of the browser window to simulate full screen mode.
