  • Hey. There are a few problems that appear when playing the Wc1 campaigns in Reforged:
    1. Because the briefings are mp3 music files, they don't play correctly during the cinematics. This can be fixed by changing to .wav and playing them as sounds, rather than music.
    2. Build and Advanced Build don't open the Build menu, and instead cause a unit order loop that sometimes crashes the game. They do change the structures available and if you hit them and then press the real build ability they work. This also happens in the Wc2 campaigns

    Would it be possible for you to fix these problems?

    On another note, are you considering porting the unit voices for your remakes? At least for the Wc1 (it's only 1 soundset)? The voices really improve the immersion, and it's not really that much work

    But I'm afraid that's just one of the many issues you'll find in my remake under Reforged. Yours is just one of but many reports. Check the thread, you'll see.

    I've looked at the reports after Reforged got custom campaigns. There are 3 main issues:
    The hotkey and sound one I mentioned.
    And some lumber mill issue in the Wc2 remake.
    I could fix these problems when I have some time and give you the fixed campaign. I can edit them in 1.28 to match your version
    LordPerenolde II
    LordPerenolde II
    That would be ideal, although I'm not sure how many other issues may arise due to different versions.
    Thank you very much for your remakes of WC1 and 2 on engine of 3. Can't wait to play your version of WC2 Beyond the Dark Portal, it was always my favourite campaigns in Warcraft games :)

    I like your Remakes more than "Chronicles of the Second War" and I really hope Chronicles didn't stop you from remaking BtDP campaigns! Good luck with your version :) Cheers!
    LordPerenolde II

    Wow, do you really mean it? Well, my remakes are leaned more on the purist side, but this is the best feedback I might have received in a while! Thank you, good sir!❤

    Yes, I mean it :) I'm not a fan of WC3 gameplay and because of that Chronicles are fun to watch on youtube... but I don't even want to play it myself :D
    Your remakes are close to WC1/2 gameplay style and that's exactly what I am expecting from a good remake :) Close to original, but still with some improves and new features. Just awesome!
    Hey Perenolde, the WC2Uther model looks really cool, though it was a reskin of Tarrasque's Retributer model. Where did you find Uther's skin?
    BTW, how are you this Thanksgiving?

    Thanksgiving isn't a thing in UK nor Italy. Anyway I'm doing great, working and all of that.
    Yeah, I noticed too a resemblance to the Retributer. I got that model from the dead Wc2:Rebirth project on permission of its creator Azazzello.
    There aren't any other models that come close to a young Uther, so I guess that's the best option I had, although definitely not a lookalike resemblance.
    StonemaulMidget

    That's right, I forgot. Thanksgiving is generally celebrated in the US.
    So, Azazzello was the one who made the skin, is that correct?
    LordPerenolde II
    LordPerenolde II
    Maybe. I just got the package, and I nowhere else found any of the models I've seen in.
    Hey! Will the secret wc2 human campaign be posted separately or added to the original pack?

    Each secret campaign will be added to its corresponding race pack. There will be some general updates as well together with it. ;)
    Please do not be eager about it, as with the little spare time I had in the last months and the little spare time I'm gonna have for the foreseeable future, it will be unlikely released or even finished before the next year. I'm also (slowly) developing Beyond the Dark Portal content together with it, so it's quite the conjoint work! :)

    "a brand new Hero mechanic for its Enhanced Mode as well."
    I hope you are not going to make them like WC3 heroes, overpowered with area damage skills like Bladestorm :nw:
    New mechanic for WC2 heroes might be cool (like for example hp regeneration or a special skill for each) but please keep them balanced with WC2 gameplay
    LordPerenolde II
    LordPerenolde II
    The problem is that the AI in BtDP is insanely aggressive. This change(isolated to the Enhanced mode) will help to withstand it less stressfully.
    Euh sorry to ask here, LordPerenoldeII, but wasn't sure of the best place. When I try launching my Warcraft III game using the 1.28.5 version in your signature, so I can go for your campaign, and it is demanding me to provide a CD-Key. Using either Battle.net or the other version I'm using for Custom Campaigns (1.29 for Legends of Arkain mainly) works without problems. Is there anything that could explain this issue in the patch you provide? Or an alternative I could use please?
    LordPerenolde II
    LordPerenolde II
    Hey. I'm having the same issue as well when I had to reinstall my pc. If you have the original game installed there shouldn't be any problem, but if you end up like me you should look for some way to obtain at least version 1.27. If you can't, try to look for any version prior to 1.27 then use a 1.27 patcher. That version works well enough and it's what I'm using at the moment to keep working on the project, since downloading the game client from my battlenet profile causes the installer to forcefully update to anything beyond 1.29...

    I wasn't implying that. I was just curious (silly question) where you got Azazzello's models.
    The closest thing was his and Aws' WarCraft II: Rebirth project, and he told me that it is most certainly dead.
    Anyway, you presented such a great project! Congrats!
    LordPerenolde II
    LordPerenolde II
    Yeah I took most of the Wc2 related material from Rebirth. When I reached for him to talk about it he approved my work and we had a brief partnership.
    StonemaulMidget
    StonemaulMidget
    Yeah, he made many nice models. Maybe he will release everything he has as a pack, so others may finish Rebirth on his behalf.
    Would you like to help me on a couple of things for my project? ;)

    Oh, i see. So you need an actual effect. And what's Grey Knight? :peasant-thinking:
    Hey buddy, Grey Knight is a fellow Hiver who created the actual Buff I wanted altered in color :p

    About that help you asked, I would gladly help, but unfortunately can't. See I not that long ago became a father and due to that fact, I barely have any time to get involved with modding anymore, just check on the Hive from time to time in between checking my emails... ;)

    It's Tides of Darkness. The Oil mining system is PERFECT, really. It doesn't have flaws, i'm impressed.
    Now, using the stats data from this human campaign file i'm starting the orc one and the progress should be hence much faster. Stay tuned when this will come out in a few days, because I assure you it's a MUST.

    Hi LordPerenoldell.Recently got acquainted with your remake of Warcraft-Orcs And Humans. Original Warcraft-Orcs And Humans has never been officially released in Russia. I think I should ask you if you would mind if I translate both campaigns into Russian(launch Briefings, names of units, etc).
    LordPerenolde II
    LordPerenolde II
    Hello! As i said to @AbyssThunder down below, i'm waiting for a couple of more models from a friend that are going to be released shortly, then launch the updated version, so that both of you guys can work on it.
    Hi LordPerenoldeII. I sent to you this message for asking something about your WC2 Remake.
    I don't know if you already know it but not so long time ago some talented people have decided to make the WC2 remake in Reforged.
    Here is the link to the demo: https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/chronicles-of-the-second-war-tides-of-darkness-demo.327574/

    I know that you recently have updated your WC1 remake but with those people working on the WC2 remake with Reforged does this mean your WC2 will be stopped or never be completed?

    While this WC2 Remake will change some things and it's going to be available only though Reforged, your WC2 Remake will work on Classic WC3 and it will be a perfect combo for a WC2 Remake on both WC3 Editions.

    What do you think about it?
    LordPerenolde II
    LordPerenolde II
    I shall write down your answer in the thread. Make sure you follow it. By the time you(rightfully) reported and asked this, i'd like to make a statement about it.
    Ciao! LordPerenoldeII, I'm a Chinese player of Warcraft3 and the leader of Yuanyu Working Group of which Highaltbelt is a member.Our Yuanyu Working Group consists of 2 members, Highaltbelt and I. I'm also a history enthusiast of Azeroth, which made me deeply touched by your campaigns. I like your Warcraft : Humans and Warcraft : Orcs very much. The 1994 one is too old and the frame is too rough. So it is so amazing that you remaked it. Warcraft 1 has revived! I've always wanted to translate your masterpieces into Chinese for years though I didn't have enough time to do so. Finally, we have got some spare time these days.Is it possible to request your email address and send our work to you when we finish it?
    LordPerenolde II

    Hello. Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately i had to stop my work on Warcraft 2 remake due to covid, which has crippled my life in the past 5 months. However, things are starting to clear out and i might be back to work soon.
    As for your request, strangely enough(as you can see below) another person got in touch with the same identical request.
    Someone in the past already reached me asking if they can translate it in spanish. It might go against the rules of this website, though. See if you can release it outside its dominion. That should work, i guess.
    Dear lord. I am a Chinese student who loves Warcraft. I came across your WC I campaign and appreciate it so much. Therefore I plan to translate it into Chinese and share it with more players.
    May I get your permission to start the program and email address so I can send you the final Chinese edition?

    Hello Lord, I came across your offline patch for 1.28.5 and I really really need a 1.28 that will not force me to download Reforged. However, your file doesn't run and says 'Couldn't open Game.dll'. Is there any fix for that? I'll be much obliged for any solution
    LordPerenolde II
    LordPerenolde II
    That's because you have another wc3 installed(i.e. an updated copy) in your pc and it goes in conflict with this, but probably you have actually "installed" my copy through the installer. Try to just copy and paste it in your pc(preferably away from the updated wc3 folder) once you download it, and try it.

    Hi LordPerenoldeII, I've been considering getting back into mapping for a bit. I really dig your WC1 REMAKE campaign and I was wondering if you'd mind if I remade the visuals and eventually submitted it as a "Remastered" of sorts. You'd get full credit naturally (I get co-credit), but I love the potential. What I propose is a visual enhancement of sorts? I totally understand any decision you make regarding this matter. Thank you!
    LordPerenolde II
    LordPerenolde II
    what do you mean "visual enhancement"?
    Med. MapGuy

    Mostly cosmetic changes - remastering the cutscenes and briefings, changing the tilesets, skins and some of the models? Game-play will be relatively untouched. I'm using an older version of Warcraft so I'm not sure what I can or cannot do, as I'm very rusty, but I'm hoping this will be good practice. If it ever does get released, I could call it a "Reforged" Edition or something.
    LordPerenolde II

    Hi, sorry for the late reply. I don't remember if this has been brought somewhere else in the forum already. It might go against the rules.
    I just came across your WC1 campaign. It looks pretty awesome!

    Just wondering, do you have any plans to update this for Reforged?
    Triceron
    Triceron
    The editor is already out in beta, and people have said it's the exact same as the original except buggier right now because it is beta. Reforged is using the WC3 engine, not SC2. Unfortunately I do not know anything about AI, I am an artist and I don't do much editor work.
    As for the models, yes there is a lot of work to do. I plan to modify models from Reforged, and I have custom models like WC-style Catapults and Slimes that I made for SC2 mod years ago. I may not be able to recreate all custom models, but I can help on the major ones. Reforged will have many new models too, like 3 different Warlock models that can be used for Warlock and Necrolyte.

    If you are interested, take some time to consider which models can be reuse from Reforged, which you feel should be custom and we can talk more :)
    LordPerenolde II
    LordPerenolde II
    Look, this sounds interesting and all, and i'd like not to let you down, but i'm still in progress with my wc2remake, and atm i'm facing heavy pressures from different situations in my life. Perhaps i will consider a better opportunity ahead, when Reforged will actually be released, but at the moment i haven't got a clear clue on what my answer would be. Thank you for the proposal, though.

    @Gafi36 already translated it all in spanish. You can talk about it with him. Don't post anything in this forum as Map Submission Rules will kick it out. Thank you for your feedback, though. I appreciate it.
    I still didn't lose hope of being able to translate the campaign into spanish

    Feel free to use them, as long as you credit their authors. Asfor the paths, use the ones as the campaign's import manager displays. If they don't work it might as well be a problem of versions.
    Your lordship, I sent you a message on Skype. Given it seems I've either ineptly forgotten how to (or possibly) lost my ability to PM here on the Hive.
    It's about your project for Warcraft 2 Remake for Warcraft 3 and an offer to help.

    I am an understudy of ConnyBengtsson a notable modeler that used to come around these parts. Though I'm unsure if that means anything at this point.

    Despite they look like complete, theyr're not. I'm missing more variations. I just have cliffs and a couple of tiles with no variations. I think i'm getting the rest done soon. In the mean time i'm trying to ultimate the (finished) Human Campaign before moving to the Orc one.

    hey bello! Ora lavoro in maniera sufficientemente assidua, per cui semplicemente ogni tanto la sera mi metto per una mezzoretta a costruire sti pupazzetti virtuali che così mi rilasso. Per il resto non ho molto interesse nel gioco, non ho nemmeno la versione aggiornata! Buon proseguimento!

    Just one question though, are you making it on the latest editor (only to be played on the recent WC patches), or are you making it on an older editor?

    Cause I'm hoping that it can be playable for an older WC3 patch version as well... Sadly, the BtDP campaigns of Helldoom can only be played on a recent patched WC3
    LordPerenolde II
    LordPerenolde II
    Yes, i'm developing it on 1.28f WE, due to the newest one having issues with some major customization features.
    I want to translate your compagnes Warcraft: orcs and Warcraft: humans in russian language. Am I allowed to do this?
