This tool really helps people distributing their maps and makes the life easier for people with elbow problems,

SentryIII, I just wanted to let you know that I tried exactly 4 autorefresh programs from other sites and the only one that worked and refreshed my games was the one you made, this one.

I thank you, and good job!

 

[VinGummi2]

How do you install it?

 

[Freerider]

I don't thinks Warcraft III works in linux system

 

[SentryIII]

Just a small update everyone: I've been trying to get it to work under Linux using the Mono Framework. Unfortunately as it is right now, the program requires a Windows-specific dll file (kernel32.dll) to work. In other words, those of you running WC3 under Linux or Mac OS X won't be able to use this program until I can fix it.

Also, I've heard reports that this will not work either under Windows Vista, and I don't plan on getting that anytime soon.

 

[Mandrilx]

Works perfectly on Vista for me. Awsome tool.

Bobdole454, whats the problem with it?
1- First restart youre computer.
2- get into auto refresh
3- Log on to b-net and host a game.


If that dosent work I cant help you im afraid

 

[samm8904]

Like Bobdole454, I can't use it because it says failed to initialize[...]. It says the same when you try to run a setup in a wrong file directory ( or something like that) can someone help me i really need to get it working!

 

[SentryIII]

Failed to Initialize (0xc000135)

This is because you don't have the .NET Framework 1.1 installed. I believe I listed that in the "Requirements". A google search would tell you that. Come on people... part of life is being able to help yourselves. You're smart enough to know how to register so I'm sure you know how to use a search engine.

 

[bkdud_32]

i have the .net framework 1.1 installed but it still wont refresh for me

 

[kdfosifki]

I was just wandering if I should open the program first and then host a game. Or should I host a game first and then open autorefresher program?

 

[SentryIII]

Uploaded a new version. It should improve usability, especially with Mac and Linux users. I've also added a feature that allows you to customize the names and colors of what the autorefresh says in the pre-game lobby. Check it out!

 

[heaven-fire]

how do i run it on mac... there is only a .exe file which mac cant run

 

[coke888]

[Peryite]

IT used to work for me... then it just stopped!

 

[haris75]

The port number setting does not match the port that you are hosting on. whatdoes that mean...... i am slow

 

[KaWLinsH]

18.08.2007 18:46:28 - Error: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
what that means plz help

 

[haris75]

What is the port number !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!??!?!??!?!?!?!?

 

[heaven-fire]

i'd still like to know how to run it on macs

 

[2hot]

Hey i got this problem
- Error: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
How can i fix this problem?(I have vista)

 

[SentryIII]

A message says "Error: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it."

- Warcraft III is not running.
- You are not hosting a game.
- The port number setting does not match the port that you are hosting on.

===============

(Windows) A message says "The application failed to initalize properly (0xC0000135)".

- Ensure that the .NET 1.1 Framework is properly installed. You can download it from Microsoft's website.

===============

(Linux/MAC) Nothing happens when the application is run.

- Ensure that the Mono Framework is properly installed. On some distributions of Linux, you can install Mono by typing "yum install mono".

 

[haris75]

- The port number setting does not match the port that you are hosting on OMG PLZ TELLME WHATTHAT MEANS !!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLZX PLZPLZPZLPZLPZL

 

[WaSp.Chryloz]

oh and btw haris...in the options in wc3 u can check which port the programm will use and then u somehow type it into the autorefresher (wc3 usually uses the port 6112 unless u've modified it)

 

[haris75]

TY TY TY!!!!! Finally some1 told me what to do D

 

[Undead_rogue]

can u help me ?? it says i need to open it with a program but i dont know which one.

 

[SentryIII]

It's an executable file... what does it say when you try to run it?

 

[SamNainocard]

Well, it won't work with my server, it's still refresh but somehow others can't join
I'm not sure if it's because my Firewall or server (Thai server with anti-hack (kinda sucks))
oh, it's also have error message, I'll see it today

 

[wd40bomber7]

I get an exception every time I minimize.
It says Width must be greater then Minwidth
It has a continue option, but its still kind of annoying.

 

[Trialtm]

Thanks for the new update on the auto refresh! the old one didnt work for me and this one does! *bows*

 

[Xiaounholy]

how to start?

 

[icinchy1]

Hey Thanks Heaps Sentryiii, and for the ppl using macs i found this site very helpful in setting it up

http://www.seosoft.info/seolog/2007/10/08/tutorial-warcraft-iii-autorefresh-for-mac-os-x/

 

[viper22x]

Hey i can't get the colored names or any custom names to work can some one help me out with that... TY

 

[icinchy1]

Hey Sentryiii thx heaps again, i was just wondering if u knew somewhere i could get a Custom Kick for mac/Linux.

Thanks

 

[Superclaude]

Does this work on Windows Vista??

 

[Parrothead]

@Superclaude: Yes it does

I love the refresher 10x more with the name changer xD. Could you add a color maker to it so we can easily put the codes into it instead of having to download a color coder as well?

 

[Superclaude]

Thanks but the Autorefresh joins slowly...

is it normal?

 

[Pryamid Head]

To slow it kicks people... it refreshes every 5 secs... that isnt fast for a refresher where can i get a faster one?

[LaberLu]

I've got a question to the Sourcecode:
In the sendet package apperas this "HostCounter[0]" in both packages.
What does this do?

 

[thegunster]

Hey it doesnt work the Autofresh it says No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it and my port is the same as the host n it doesnt work or im missing some thing if i am can u plz give me a link?

 

[Orum]

I've noticed a few annoyances in this, but the two most important are: 1) crashing when it's minimized 2) not automatically scrolling to the bottom of the log. Although I don't know any C#, I've manged to figure out enough of it (C++ knowledge helps a little) that I was able to make a quick fix for both of these problems. I've added you on AIM and hope to talk to you soon.

 

[corey88826]

[Alvin]

you can download by clicking on the link "Click here to download WarcraftIIIAutoRefresh.zip (72.69 KB, 14916 Downloads)" if you dont find it, search on the page for "Click here to download" and you will find it.

 

[Daiwan1]

i gt problems i put the correct port and then it says that it cant connect to ir coz the pc dponest let it

 

[Junichi]

It took some doing, but I got this thing to work. A simple reboot is actually all it took.

I do have a question pertaining to the speed at which the AutoRefresher joins your game. At the default setting AutoRefresh will fill up the slots at an agonizingly slow pace. I've seen other players with AutoRefresh fill up the game and leave in an instant. Tinkering with the refresh rate only seems to affect how often the program tries to fill the room up and not the speed at which it actually does the deed.

Would anyone have any idea why my AutoRefresh is so slow? I've poured over the documentation but there is no mention of this anywhere.
