News of the project
« on: April 01, 2012, 04:22:50 am »
Hello.

Earlier today I sent the campaign to a few players and it seems like there's a problem. I've been doing the campaign since the last version with own modified Warcraft 3 to get the best quality as possible, it seems like only my Warcraft 3 can anymore run the campaign.

Right now I don't know how to continue. I have two choices: either I continue doing the campaign with this Warcraft 3 meaning if you want to play it you must also download my 1gb size Warcraft 3. This is however illegal and tiresome downloading so much data. Other choice is that I continue from the last working version, which means I've just lost three months of hard work.

My mind is now empty what to do.

Greetings,

How does your "own modified" Warcraft differ from the normal one?

It must've been something great, because otherwise it's like risking with a less-known video codec.

Either way you choose to go with, I'm not going to download another GB worth of file size to my PC that's already in the between of fast and slow. At the moment, loading the chapters takes 7 minutes for me already, so if nothing's gonna happen to reduce the file size, I fear the campaign becomes unplayable for the high risk of crashing.

There's some extra lines in the basic code and if you know something about coding even a little things can make huge different. When you start the campaign with other than my Wacraft 3 it immediately gives you a fatal error.

It is possible to modify the gore of Warcraft 3. That way it is possible to do changes normally you can't do with World Editor like do some changes to the UI.

I think I know what is wrong. You modified your Warcraft code to change the UI, other Warcraft installations don't have the custom codes but the campaign's UI needs them, that's why the game crashes.

Solution: reversing all the stuffs that involved your custom codes back to their original state. I think that should fix the problem.

UI is not the only thing I've changed, there are many other things too like from custom sounds all the way to custom lightning. In the other words, the campaign is completely corrupted to any other Warcraft 3 games except mine's.

Hmm. It seems like this year I didn't succeed as good as previous year.

Anyway, the best moment was when Shinokyofu came panicing to the chat and he totally didn't remember it was this day.

I wouldn't still download your own 1GB-Warcraft, so perhaps revert the changes?

It was just a joke. You can play the campaign just like before. Nothing is wrong.

Of course I can now, but what about tomorrow?
