    Oh my god! I just want to say big thanks for creating Curse of the Forsaken. You made me go back to my childhood! I always had a wish to erase my memories of wc3 campaign just to be able to relive it again lol, and you made the closest possible thing to it. It was so amazingly done, the dialogue, the emotions, the gameplay, the interesting quests, and so intelligently created missions... (the Thraina breadcrumbs hehe). I wished for a long time Blizzard would do something like this - retell WoW stories in WC4, or just continue from WC3, but we have YOU! Congratulations on making such an epic thing!

    PS: poy iz Srbije!! :3

    Hello my friend!
    Thank you very much for your hard work!
    Can you please explain me why i can't hear voices in your campaign "Rise of the blood elves"?
    I just see subtitles and no more speeches, in "Curse of forsaken" i have same issue.

    Hi Tom! You campaigns are awesome really, but i have question for last mission Rise of the Blood Elves... Why you not using Original map Quel´Thalas (the map whe lie Sun Well) and customizating for big finale this campaign...? And in Curse of the Forsaken... How did you make Lich king? You make 3D model or how? And last thing... Do you have open files with your campaings? I want see how you make all things in this maps... Becouse i want make custom map or campaing and i still cannot solving AI problems with enemy base and units, Build, Craft, Research and attacking to player or allied units.

    Hi, Tomoraider! I really appreciate your work, they were honestly one of the first custom campaigns I played since I installed W3, I hope one day to be able to play a new project that you have in mind again. Anyway, at this moment I was presented with a bug regarding a unit from the Rise of the blood elves campaign, I'm talking about the blood knight, the model was altered or crashed and I will leave a screenshot as evidence of this. Without further ado, I hope you are well, a cordial greeting from a distance.

    Hello, tomoraider! I'm a fan of your campaign series, and I'm working on an enhanced version of your campaign "Rise of the Blood Elves". Would you allow me to upload my version on Hiveworkshop? (I'm not going to upload it into the Maps section.)

    Hey, I have to say no, I would prefer not to have any alternate versions of my campaigns available on Hive.

    The work on Curse of the Forsaken Classic is progressing well!

    I recently just finished the revamp of Chapter Ten (which was previously Chapter Nine, Hearts in Ice, the Jaina and Quel'Delar chapter). The work on this map took a lot of effort, and I am quite pleased with how it turned out. Check out this little preview of what you can expect to see!

    PS: I had originally planned to finish the campaign by the end of 2024, but it's going to take a bit longer. I will make video sometime soon about my thoughts and when I think it might be finished.

    Not sure what causes this because Drek'Thar seems to always be able to walk through the waygate and provide support when the undead attacks, but Garrosh gets stuck.
    This has happened when I'm playing with and without cheat codes, so that is not the root cause.

    Think this is something you should look into cause it's really weird, and it also has a big impact on how difficult the mission becomes when you can't get support from one of the 4 armies you have (Horde, Loarderon, Frostwolves & Warsong).

    Please let me know if I can answer any questions or clarify anything that might help you solve this problem.

    First I thought the bug could be caused by not eliminating all the sleeping lizars, muguls, and quilboars that you meet on the way to the gateway (except the ones surrounding the gateway). It seemed to work at the beginning of the mission, but they eventually got stuck again. Tried it multiple times.

    Second, I thought maybe the bug would be fixed if I killed Garrosh and his troops moving back and forth between the base and Waygate, but after they respawned they still got stuck.

    Thirdly, due to the position of their barracks, I saw that there was very little room for Garrosh and his forces to navigate around their base. It seems like their fortress is the default "retreat" point, and since the barracks are placed very close by there is very little room. I thought by destroying the barracks, maybe they would be able to walk around more freely and no longer be stuck, but it still didn't work.

    Hey, been playing "Curse of the Forsaken" a couple of times, and seems like there is a bug with Garrosh in the mission "A Rallying Point".

    Sometimes Garrosh and his troops just walk back and forth between the gateway and their home base (Warsong Clan Fortress), never (or very rarely) walk though the waygate. Sometimes they walk through and just walk back, never helping in the defense.

    This usually doesn't happen right away after you complete the bonus mission. They help maybe once or twice, but then they get stuck in this loop.

    Drek'thar seems to be working fine, but Garrosh gets stuck somehow.

    I have played this mission many times and tested out a few possible solutions myself, but without success.

    Hey, I know this is a bit late, but I just finished playing "Rise of the blood elves" and I just wanna say thank you from the bottom of my heart, This was one of the best campaigns I have ever played, The quality and the effort that was put in this campaign exceeds the official campaigns themselves, I wish I could support you with more than that but "Thanks" is all what I have.

    Looking forward to it! I am a Chinese player, and I have played both of your campaigns many times over the past decade. Like storybooks, I think they are even more exciting than official campaigns each time I read them. I look forward to your further updates and more creations, and I hope your life and work go well.

    Hello. I really liked the "Curse of the Forsaken 3.0". 10/10. The gameplay, plot and landscape are top-notch. As in the "Rise of the Blood Elves 3.0." However, in the RBE, I really didn't like artificial intelligence. It is very inadequate. Only 9/10. Therefore, I cannot give it the highest rating. As far as I understand, no improvements have been made in the field of artificial intelligence compared to previous versions? I only played 3.0.

    ​

    tomoraider
    tomoraider
    Thank you, glad you enjoyed them. Yes, RotBE is slightly outdated and some things were additionally broken with subsequent patches Warcraft 3 received. I have not made any fixes yet, but hopefully I'll get to it in the future.

    The "Rise of the Blood Elves 3.0." for version 1.27? I've played "RBE 3.0" аt 1.26 twice. Perhaps because of this, the artificial intelligence broke down? And in all chapters.
    I played The Curse of the Forsaken in version 1.26. Almost everything is perfect there with artificial intelligence. Except for one chapter.
    But to check, I'll have to play 1.31 later.

    I believe it was one of the patches that came with Reforged that broke the AIs. I don't know for sure which one.

    Hey Tomoraider.
    Hope you doing well.
    Quick question. Will the series continue from what the last 1 left off or will we get some story that happened before the first 2 campaigns you made?

    Hello, Mr. Tomoraider, who made your Blood Elf building model? Can you tell me who made this model? Alternatively, could you tell me where exactly the building model of this Blood Elf was downloaded from? Can you provide a website link? I have no other intention, I just want to get to know this modeler.

    Hi, Mr. Tomoradier, first of all, I really enjoyed your curse of forsaken campaign, so I was wondering if I could make some changes to your unit? Of course, the changes will not be sold or profit, and so on, just as a warcraft enthusiasts to make their own small changes

    Hey Tomoraider,
    I recently released a new Forsaken Apothecary model and thought it might interest you for your campaigns, of course I will take no offence if you prefer the current model you use :)

    www.hiveworkshop.com

    Forsaken Apothecary

    Forsaken Apothecary Texture and Geo-merging/edit by Footman16, Portrait, animations and polishing by General Frank So I decided to once again create a model based on this request here for an SD version of a Reforged/HD model. I thought it would be fun, useful and a good test even though it...

    Mr. Tomoraider, I would like to ask your permission to translate into Spanish your two majestic campaigns of the blood elves and the renegades, and ask you why once I tried to translate a chapter of the renegades into Spanish and I couldn't, why can it be?

    The custom cinematic for "Rise of the Blood Elves" isn't working in reforged?

    The first time I played your campaign was in 2015.
    At that time, your two campaigns deeply shocked me, and it was the first time I discovered that Warcraft campaigns could be done so well.
    I played your new version of the campaign again recently, and the improved campaign is even better.
    Your campaign restores the plot of Warcraft very well, and the original plot you designed is also very good.
    And i heard that you have plans for further updates in the near future, is that true?

I'm working on a v3.1 for CotF, which would include some system changes (how the AI works and such), compatibility updates for Reforged (with classic graphics) and some minor gameplay changes, techtree updates, and similar. I'd like to do a RotBE v4.0 at some point in the future too.

    Are you ready to add the plot of challenging the Zul'Aman trolls? And the plot where Kil'jaeden cut off the link between Quel'Thalas and Kael'thas?So Kael'thas goes full demoncrazy. And what about the draenei and the blood elves attacking Kael'thas's army together?

    hello tomoraider, I just checked in the editor and as I thought in your campaign Rise of the blodd elves (great BTW) you replaced the human musics so the custom ones automatically play. Did you have problems to make it work ?
    For me sometimes the tracks stop playing even if each one seems fine, like I said here. I don't know if it's the length or something in the files or what.

    thanks in advance

    Hey tomoraider. I found the blood knight in RotBE campaign has the wrong model(looking like a Nelf sentry) when playing in 1.31.1 is there any chance you can make a small bug fix on that? Or if there is a quick fix in the editor can you help me change it myself? Everything else is perfect but I my ocd just can't handle it anymore :cry:

    Hey tomoraider!

    I recently just finished your Rise of the Blood Elves campaign. I was hoping to play Curse of the Forsaken. However, the campaign requires patch 1.30.2. With Warcraft 3 in it's current state, I cannot find access to just this patch. I can't get it through Blizzard as the setup will just take me to Reforged. Is there any way to get this patch just by itself? Thanks!

    Hi

    On your 'Curse of the Forsaken' thread, someone has posted a link to what is presumably v3.0 from June 10, 2018
    https://www.hiveworkshop.com/posts/3430748/

    Because you do not officially make this specific version available yourself, I do not know if this upload is kosher.

    For the record and in case you have a list of digests to compare with, its SHA-1 is 3838020662E6740463AA6B567BFA3ADCDD42F76A
