Vernam7 replythis Quide was written by a friend that didnt updated properly! why didnt you also read the 1st page, still that was NOT you main ISSUE!(i have fixed that btw now tnx)
@Anata, patch 17 will work just fine, and also patch 18 only fixed some problems that will not affect the gameplay. And I do no think there even is a patch 18 for enGB.

yeah i have enGB and patch 18 never came down, i forced enUS and fucked up my strings :P then i deleted everything and reinstalled beta and upgrade (because eu servers were up) directly to patch 17 and works stable.

just reinstalled again .. matched manually following the guide up to patch 18, clicked the "crack latest patch" button on the launcher, using maps from the download page. Still getting the same black screen with the terran mouse :( Has anyone who had this problem fixed it yet? @Champy any luck so far?

thanks for helping :) ... third time reinstalling for me ... this time after the install it would not patch up automatically so i had to manually do it... no change though, same black screen at launch
@SyKo i thought you are better than this! tell me what part of the previous post with MY screeshot is so hard to understand? you havent even patch 1 patch to your game and you are expecting to play?
YOU DIDNT PATCHED ANYTHING! compare your version to mine above! 13891 is the February 1st version launcher doesnt work with that! read again the article on manual patching and make sure this time its done ;-)

Downloaded all the patches up to 18 from this page, and extracted the zipped files to a folder called "Updates" in the Starcraft 2 Default directory. All I did was follow instructions on this page and nothing more. Have no idea how to get my version folder to look like yours :P
So I did all that ... extracted all the patches into the folder called "Updates" that you can see from the screenshot of my Starcraft 2 install directory. so my "Updates" folder looks like this: . There was nothing I could see in the instructions about doing anything to the "Versions" folder. All I did was follow the Instructions I read.
Anyone else that follows the Noobs Manual EXACTLY is going to end up with the same problem, as some others have already. That is because the manual is mising all the information required to learn how to manually patch the game. I recommend at least putting a link to the 16+ patching thread or some type of step by step guide in the manual itself, or there will be more people with the same problem :)
look friend we are not BLizzard support team and the manual is for the tool not for the replays nor the patching process!
you have to understand that and dont ask so much! seens i found you your problem its your time to fix it! we just cant do anything for you or the rest of thousand users!
so dont blame the manual nor the tool.

Is this an issue with the the maps the version or something else.

Do manual patch and don't paste the cache folder.

localz has nothing to do with your problems!
somehting is wrong with your game version and maps.
or you havent crack the beta
so i had the recent maps..
so mate, in your noob guide, there is a error "http://sc2.nibbits.com/forums/29/view/660/new-install-instructions-for-noobs-or-not-and-faq-here"
"Blizzard Maps
http://rapidshare.com/files/392818478/New_Official_Maps.rar"
i've downloaded that maps from there ;)
exactly as i was Afraid! you may read guys but you dont check if you did it right! :)
your GAME IS NOT UPDATED to AT LEAST PATCH 17-18 BETA PHASE 2 the versions directory should look Like this! or have one more newer folder.
here is my directory as an example (my beta is at Phase2 patch 17)
Crack? Isnt that allin1 thing the crack? And my versions folder has Base13891 and Shaders852121
