It may be worth pointing out that installing the full v1.27a Blizzard provides thanks to their Legacy Downloader, does not lead to the same exact installation than, say, a 1.00 RoC + 1.07 TFT + the 1.27a official upgrade patch. This is because Blizzard has included some of the files from war3patch.mpq directly inside the main TFT mpq.

Other differences exist after installation. For example, this full 1.27a does not install the demo campaign (despite the fact that the w3n file exists and is parsed by the TFT installer).

I wish Blizzard would want to bring back the full 1.21b (which has been available since 2008 until it has been replaced by this other, 1.27a2 full version). I also wish they would make ISOs of RoC 1.00 and TFT 1.07 available, all thanks to this Legacy Downloader, for any of those who want any of them, in all languages and for all supported OSes (PC / Mac)

Should you want to download this full 1.27a, I am encouraging you HerrDave to use Blizzard's official Legacy Downloader to do so. This version is available in all supported languages and OSes, just type the correct syntax in your browser's address bar, to download the Downloader that will download the full installer files in the language and OS you want, by following the advice from this page:

I am pointing out that hosting and/or redistributing any full version of the game without any written consent by Blizzard, is illegal.

Therefore, only the official Legacy Downloader should be used to get the installer files.

On a side note, this 420 character limit can be so very annoying sometimes, when one has to explain things properly...

Agreed, it should be 427 :>

No worries though, I was able to barter for v1.27 MPQs in exchange for an anime animation, so I can model again

@pyf You deleted your ~1.31 in hopes Blizzard would treat you better. You are not well.

@HerrDave: 1.27 MPQs from an already properly installed version of the game, come with CD-Keys into them (as encrypted files).
Please refer to this post and onwards:

@Mythic: you are not very well informed and are very far from the truth, I see.

@pyf If that was very far from the truth, it's either you were lying then - or you're lying now.
It's clear you can only be trusted to waste people's time.

Come on guys. No need to fight or escalate on a matter of similar importance to Toilet paper orientation. Let's focus on why we're here instead.

@Mythic: I am surprised how your last two posts seem to be appreciated somewhat, even though what you have quoted demonstrates the opposite of what you have alleged so far.

My first documented post about uninstalling v1.31.1 and installing the official offline standalone full downloadable WC3 v1.27a2 instead, and DII LoD v1.14b soon after, can be read here:

In between these two Profile posts, I have also posted that one:

I am curious to know what those who have been reading/reacting so far, think about them, before I go on with my demonstration

Also, please provide more information regarding the fact it is allegedly clear according to you, that I can only be trusted to waste people's time. tia.

@pyf, please leave it.

@Ralle: considering how I have been publicly accused of allegedly being a liar (past and/or present), as well as allegedly being someone who can not be trusted, except to waste peoples' time, it is fair that my public accuser/prosecutor provides evidence of what he claims. As for me, I consider @Mythic's public libel to have tarnished my reputation on THW

The posts I have linked to above clearly demonstrate that they are not part of any plot from me, in order to be treated better than anybody else here by Blizzard Entertainment

As for the screen capture @Mythic has posted above, one can read what is left of this Profile discussion here, for reference purposes:

I said what's left of it, because it has not escaped my sight back then that @loktar has deleted his only comment there, after I had invited him to discuss the legality of some of his actions on THW

As of this writing, my request to read Blizzard's official written approval of his uploads of the full versions of the game (be they on THW and/or on MEGA), has not been honored yet. That was more than 7 months ago. @Ralle

I have no idea what you’re going on about.
