Is it really possible? I don't know if it's been asked before, but I can't find it in the search.helpsmilie.gif

Oh and another question, is there ai script that makes the cpu upgrade?

Thx for helping the nooby here!

upgrade 60(?) in starforge did that - although it upgrade everything else too(psi storm, missile turrets). i don't know if it still works after the new patch though.

and no, theres no ai script to do upgrades. although ther are methods to get special abilities, but not for armor/attack.

I think the only upgrade you can legitimately achieve would be the shields upgrade for Probes. Other than that, their attacks remain the same. I always wondered that myself as well, because I wanted to be able to upgrade Cannons, Turrets, Spore Colonies, and Sunken Colonies. Oh well.

Zeratul 101 was correct. Many units that aren't supposed to have attack upgrades have Unknown upgrades assigned to their attacks so you can still upgrade their attacks. I doubt Blizzard did anything to that information with the new patch so it should still work fine.

There is only one upgrade.

This "Unused" upgrade applies to all the normally un-upgradeable units. It also upgrades Psionic Storm damage.
It upgrades all of these things:

- Photon Cannon damage
- Missile Turret damage
- Sunken Colony damage
- Spore Colony damage
- All building armor
- Infested Terran damage
- Scourge damage
- Spider Mine damage
- SCV damage
- Probe damage
- Drone damage
- Psionic Storm damage

Hmm, apparently I forgot to hit the "reply" button last time. Made a post but didn't post it tongue.gif

In SCMDraft, it's the 10th, or last, unused upgrade. For psi storm, from my testing, I got that it adds +8 damage per upgrade on psi storm's 112 base damage. Everything else just has bonuses you can edit.

Thanks fritfrat, is there anyway to change the psi storm's base damage and damage factor? it will be really useful in some rpgs.

Oh is there an actual tutorial on SCMDraft's unused upgrades? It will take too long to test it out, and I am lazy blushing.gif pinch.gif

Oh and also in SCMDraft there is unused tech, what do they do when I enable them???? crybaby.gif


bash.gif Bash me all you want, I am still stupid...

I'm not sure if it will do anything. I haven't seen any tutorial either. The upgrade that everyone is telling you about is basically the only functioning upgrade that I've found to work.

Storm is the only attack one of the attacks effected by the unknown upgrade that you cannot simply set to max damage. With 255 ups, you can set 1 full storm to deal 2152 damage, which is a heck of a lot... I don't know of a way you can increase the bonus or base damage of storm.

Oh, and unused techs you can build once you enable them. Just good luck finding the unit that can wink.gif

EDIT: Apparently a lot of people didn't get that I was being sarcastic in this post. You can't build unused techs because there's nothing to build it with, just like you can't get unused upgrades in-game.

None of the other unused upgrades do anything.

If you go through DatEdit, anything that doesn't have an upgrade is assigned to "Upgrade 60". You cannot upgrade it in games without mods, but you can set it to a certain amount with Starforge, SCMDraft, or FartyEdit.

EDIT:
Yes this has been said a ton in here.. but I was adding my observation while I was modding weapons.

i think it was my map happy.gif
btw, there are also zerg/terran/protoss building armor upgrades there.
You can set upgrade lvl only in starEdit (scmdraft or starforge) but can't do that during the game.
