      Ok so I've been using my Retropie project mostly for playing Gameboy and Super Nintendo games but since finding a nice compact keyboard, I've been playing the included Quake 3. I was wondering if anybody has successfully installed any other ported games onto their Retropie project. I'm trying to get StarCraft, one of my favorite games, and cannot find anything specifically for Retropie. Any help would be very appreciated, and thanks for the help.

            Ok I've done the install instructions on the site and none of these programs work. Have you found a work around or are the links themselves just busted?

              @Codeyvh I don't have the original StarCraft game so I haven't been able to test it and it seems nobody has been able to do an in depth tutorial on the stratagus engine. In theory it should work. I think StarCraft can probably be played in dosbox but I'm doubtful it will be a playable framerate
