Reforged shit: 1.31.1

>>2332910
Wow awesome move Anon you sure showed them!

>>2332798
The 1.26a patch is the last version by the original devs and the best patch, 1.27a is when they came in and broke shit like audio and other stuff that didn't get fixed until the much later reforged patches

>>2332798
buy it so you can play online?

Unironically the official Blizzard version, since they fixed some shit in the last few years and also introduced nice QOL features.

>Unironically the official Blizzard version
It would be a better game if tomorrow they reverted all changes to pre-reforged patches that bloated the game, but wc3 is best played where there are people so official is probably the best way to go today.

Played in a team vs Insane AI with some random Bulgarians it was fun we all took specialisation and steamrolled them (there were few close calls tho)

you mean you don't like always showing HP bars, thicker HP bars for heroes for better visibility, and the timer for how much is left until the building/training finishes? Why would you want these hugely beneficial changes to be gone? Because you hate blizzard and stomp your manlet legs in seething impotent rage?

>>2334141
Yeah you would have to be genuinely retarded blizzdrone to be happier with wc3 post reforged than pre reforged.
The split of the playerbase between versions, increased hardware requirements further splitting the playerbase and the change to WE UA put a permanent mark on the battle.net experience.

what split? You mean vatniggers playing Dota on Gameranger? Nobody misses them
>increased hardware requirements further splitting the playerbase
what hardware requirements? You mean you don't have 4GB of RAM and a GTS 450 in 2026?
The only people stuck with 17 year old hardware are people who can't afford internet connection to play anyway, so the only thing split here is your whore mother's turdcutter
>and the change to WE UA put a permanent mark on the battle.net experience.
they brought back clans, ladder, tournaments, in addition to normal matchmaking with whatever team setup you want. Oh and you didn't even have to buy reforged to get all of that until very recently
>Yeah you would have to be genuinely retarded blizzdrone to be happier with wc3 post reforged than pre reforged.
and you have to operate on 2010 knowledge and hardware to be such a retarded ignorant nigger talking about things you have no earthly clue about. Reforged came a LONG way since its embarrassing dogshit release

By playing World In Flames, World War One ISH, and Warcraft Legacies, which all have competitive communities and active map development

Probably means WC3 Champions.

if you don't want to touch Reforged then
1.30 because of wide screen support and still working LAN multiplayer
maybe 1.31 works too idk, we play on 1.30 with my friend
if you are getting black screen at start then there is a mismatch in the registry with the language code or something
"COMPUTER\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Blizzard Entertainment\Classic Launcher\w3\Locale"

>What are the differences in versions?
1.26b is the most bug-free single-player. This version does not have official widescreen support. Unofficial widescreen mods exist but stretch the UI: https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/renderedge-graphic-modification-for-warcraft-iii.288375/
1.27b is the latest offline version (only requires the patch file, no need to connect to Battle.net). However, 1.27a introduced the missing ambient sounds bug that didn't get resolved until 1.30.1
1.29.2 is a relatively bug-free single-player with widescreen support. 1.29.1 is also passable but has more bugs. Check the patch notes to see if you mind.
1.30.1 and on fix the ambient sounds issue. This is also the version supported by WC3Connect if you ever want to play online multiplayer including custom maps in a Battle.net-like environment, but outside Blizzard's official Battle.net
1.31.1 is the latest pre-Reforged version. This version added a lot of modding/world editor updates like LUA support.
PTR builds do not support LAN play
