* Starcraft is a trademark of Blizzard Entertainement



=== What is the Fifth Order ===

The fith order is a Starcraft Add-on Campaign that is distributed
freely to anyone who wants it. The story of the 5th Order
was created by BlackIC.

=== How to install the add-on ===

Simply extract the files into your starcraft directory.
A good way to extract them, would be like the example below :

Make sure recurse directories is on. This will extract two
directories in the Starcraft directory called : 5THSND & 5THPORT.
One directory in the maps directory called : The 5th Order.
Two subdirectories in "The 5th Order" folder called : Episode I & Episode II.

The extraction will also create "5thorder.bat" and "end5thorder.bat" in the
starcraft directory (See How to play section).

=== Episode 1 & 2 components ===

There are a total of 16 missions accross two campaigns which
are Terran and Protoss. There is 1 epilogue for the Terran
campaign and one for the Protoss campaign. The epilogues are
the only campaign files which do not include recorded voices.

Episode 1 is the first campaign you should begin with and that
campaign is the Terran Campaign. The Protoss campaign is the
second episode.

Unit sound and portraits are available for this version.

=== HOW TO PLAY (VERY IMPORTANT) ===

(A) To start playing, double click on "5thorder.bat"
(B) It will rename the sound directory (if any) to SNDBASE
(C) It will rename the portrait directory (if any) to PORTBASE
(D) It will rename "5THSND" to "SOUND"
(E) It will rename "5THPORT" to "PORTRAIT"
(F) STARCRAFT will be loaded

After the batch file was executed, go into CUSTOM game, select
"The 5th Order" directory, and then select the "EPISODE I" directory.
Click on "5th_terran_01.SCX".

For "EPISODE II", click on "5th_protoss_01.SCX".

When you exit STARCRAFT BROOD WAR, click on "END5THORDER.BAT".
This will rename your "SOUND" and "PORTRAIT" directory to their
orginal names and the "5THSND" and "5THPORT" too.
