This is my first post on TL. I am a game developer and myself and my mate Matt were watching Showcraft today and decided to take a break from work to write a little application that will notify you when you need to inject larva. Just wanted to share it with you all and I hope it helps some of the less proficient players like myself.



(This application does not interact with the SC2 client in anyway)



You can download it for free at the following site. There is also some instructions on how to use it. If you like the tool please let me know. We are considering making one for Mules and Chronoboost.



Zerg Link:



Terran Link:



Protoss Link:





UPDATE:



We created applications for every race so now you can all cheat/practice depending on how you view this app.

Gamegene Profile Blog Joined June 2011 United States 8300 Posts #5 I consider larva injects a good measure of how strong a Zerg player is. This is just way too artificial for me... ;; Throw on your favorite jacket and you're good to roll. Stroll through the trees and let your miseries go.

People could be doing a lot worse things in my opinion like using large macros or hacks. I don't use these but I think they will be beneficial to some people. There are like 50 of these though. u gotta sk8

MeroteK Profile Joined July 2011 United States 46 Posts #8 Yeah.. this is definitely considered cheating

PR4Y Profile Joined November 2010 United States 260 Posts #9 does this know when you have finished your inject rounds? if not, 5 minutes into the game your timer will be off by like 20-30 seconds.





people have tried this before, and it usually just doesn't work correctly. unless you have the above mentioned feature, it will be quite useless.





not to mention there are already 500 of these on the internet. I'm your average Brotoss brother, weilding my brommortal, brothership, brolossus, bro ray, broenix... BROTHERHOOD OF BROTOSS

If I were you i would post on the official forums to ask if you can use it or not if you don't want to get an unintended ban. http://clan-exe.enjin.com/

Uh, how would Blizzard know if you're running a program that doesn't change anything about the SC2 client at all? Uh, how would Blizzard know if you're running a program that doesn't change anything about the SC2 client at all? gold on my wrist phone in my pocket

The difference being that you can't use a metronome during a competition or an exam.



I'm pretty sure you this fits Battle.net's definition of cheating, i.e. someone can report you if you use this during a game (even though I don't see how they will detect you are using it). Maybe it will help you when practicing, I don't know, but it will 100% be unfair if you use it on ladder.

You're using a Third Party program to give yourself an unfair advantage. You're using a Third Party program to give yourself an unfair advantage.
