1.32.6 PTR PATCH NOTES

[verstefyren]

I think this patch just went live

 

[DrTema]

Why it's always previous patch notes in blizzard app? This is annoying

[Daffa]

About shared container technologies, does that mean I have to move all of my existing materials in Program Files into _retail_ folder?

Every Reforged patch should be replied to with a picture of a Taiwanese protester giving the finger.

This is starting to feel insulting. The game has now been out for six months and the biggest feature we've gotten is adding the fucking single player button back. No communication, no transparency, nothing. Its all just adjusting microseconds for attacking animations and particles on special effects. Who gives a shit?

1.32.6 added 2 new natives to common.j

native BlzFrameGetChildrenCount                    takes framehandle frame returns integer
native BlzFrameGetChild                            takes framehandle frame, integer index returns framehandle

Which are great, this things allow to access some frames we couldn't before.
I only did a short test yet, but found the idle worker Button and the Mouse Deadzone at the orginal pos of command button frame. Both are children of ConsoleUI. Idle worker Button is index 7 and the deadzone 5.

Edit: But this natives seem to ignore Texture/String childFrames.

I'm pretty sure there are ways to make cross-compatibility without making dumb moves such as 32gb of garbage. Just like before when you wanted to uninstall the frozen throne and install again, if you successfully uninstalled it, you would also uninstall reign of chaos...pretty dumb.

I know, right?

 

[DracoL1ch]

you want them to test 2 builds - HD and SD - separately? Multiple bugs by 2 right now. Not gonna happen.

 

[Wrda]

I want them to remove the dependency on the pile of 32GB without disabling cross-compatibility.
Classic version and Reforged version, both would be connected, but not required to have a huge amount of stuff that you can't even use in the first place.
Whatever method and how they do it that's on them.

 

[DracoL1ch]

the most cheaper method - don't do that. Check.

I want them to put the classic client up and never touch it again. They can fiddle with and update their build as much as they want but I want people to be easily able to access the actual classic game that they love without having to jump through hoops.

You think multibillionare corporate will follow the way of least damage just because users want it? Ha!
Nobody will take blame. Everything goes the way it's intended to. Wait for further patches!

 

[Wrda]

Wait for further patches!

Let's wait 20 years. That's how much time they need till the game gets fully fixed, according to the rate of each patch released.

 

[DracoL1ch]

dont you dare saying you have planned something more important for 2040 than a fully working single player custom campaing

 

[loktar]

dudes, your sarcastic remarks about reforged are becoming really stale, you're always saying basically the same thing to the point that it's starting to feel like spam
just sayin

 

[DracoL1ch]

you what mate?
Im dead serious. Reforged is the best thing to happen with wc3. Now you can play freely without those annoying bots. Whichever map you want. Even with other people, sometimes .

[Graetgames]

imma say this right here

Warcraft 3 reforged has gotten another update a few days after the PTR update.....

 

[lord_Turin]

anyone else noticed that we can edit data in the data editor untill the 3rd decimal now?

 

[Venombite]

Wow, I just realized that it's been 4+ months since Refunded released with a bunch of missing features(Custom Campaigns, Profiles, Ladder etc.....).

And all of this time, how many of them were re enabled? None, zero, nothing.

I thought Blizzard can't surprise me anymore, but this is actually quite impressive.

Congratulations Blizzard!!!

 

[loktar]

Well, one, offline singleplayer, IIRC.

 

[Wayshan]

I have a confession to make. I love reading those. First of all, I laugh all the way through the update messages. Second of all, I am even happier that I didn't buy Refunded. This is ridiculous. Just as @Venombite said - they didn't bring any of the crucial features.

 

[Venombite]

Worst thing is that this patching cycle will last till January at the latest, after that the game will most likely get HotS treatment of getting one or two patches per year, for a few years and even less after that. So those features pretty much have only like 7 more months to get implemented. After that chances that they'll be implemented at all get a lot slimmer. And none of them got implemented in 4+ months, so....I hate to be a doom prophet, but realistically, things don't look good.

It's why we only need proper lightening and high poly model implementation and some natives only. The rest we can manage for ourselves.

I meant, we did not need Reforged but what I wrote earlier instead.

I can't wait these guys to Re-Deforged it in the next update. I can only imagine it getting worse henceforth.

damn im doing better job than blizzard in pushing their own product

Evidence of time travel:

He predicted wc3 Refunded 10 years ago.

 

[Wazzz]

If they want more use out of Mercenary Camps, they can always take me up on my Bandits faction idea for a fifth race :^)

 

[DooMWhite]

Honestly, the very least blizzard could do right now is to give Wc3/TFT for free(Not that I need it, but I'm NOT telling my friends to buy deforged just to play Classic Wc3.), ANY company would've done it to compensate by this point.

 

[DracoL1ch]

to compensate what? arent you satistfied with all the new features? what are ungrateful players

Honestly, I find even that trailer pretty ugly, that BM using Bladestorm on 0:51 without any effects makes me cringe.

Correction, broken features, also broken features that they didn't even touched in the first place, removed ladder, clans, profiles, worse UI, shitty UI, garbage commands, garbage logic to whisper players friends, no friends notification when they enter a game, can't enter a private game unless invited, before friends could join private games because...they could see the game name in /f l, bugs, BUGS, BUGS, CRASHES, DESYNCS

exactly why they said "your expectations to have the same UI and animations and graphic as in the trailer were wrong"!

Only until they touch the editor again and everything gets fucked up.

 

[Footman16]

I feel like the next patch is a little late this month, this is what the 24th, hoping it comes out soon with custom campaigns.

 

[Ardenaso]

june 2020 and there are still Blizzard shills? come on man

 

[Venombite]

Ok, I don't think I ever said this, but sadly it's time. I think that Warcraft 3 Reforged is never gonna be fixed and never gonna get in a decent state, let alone the state it was in January 26th 2020. The only solution I see is to uninstall Refunded and go back to an older version (pre 1.32)

Why am I saying this now? Yesterday I decided to play a match in another dead Blizzard game, Heroes of the Storm. I haven't entered the game since Deathwing was added, which was like 7 months ago. I don't care about that game at all anymore, haven't cared ever really, but especially now, but I guess I just wanted to see a new hero in action. And when I turned it on, it turns out that they have actually released two or three patches since Deathwing, just not content patches. It was just balance and events(which basically means new main menu background). However the game was visibly worse. Sure the new hero is unbalanced, but that's normal and will be solved in a few patches. However the problem is that the game's performance is visibly worse, and there are obvious bugs. I mean the game was getting worse and worse since it was "scaled down", but it was getting visibly worse. Earlier it took like 5 sec to start it, had an optimal performance and almost no bugs at all. Now however it takes like 5 mins to start, and there are visible lags and bugs.

So why am I writing it here? Well despite it being scaled down, I'm pretty certain that HotS still has a larger team and budget than Wc3R. And since even they aren't capable of fixing bugs and performance, quite contrary, I just can't see Wc3R team fixing the game, ever. Even if they re add missing features, they'll probably re introduce dozens of bugs alongside them, so yeah. It really doesn't look good.

Why am I writing this now? I guess I just needed to vent my frustration in some way, when it comes to Refunded....

 

[deepstrasz]

Are you sure they haven't enhanced the graphics engine?

 

[DracoL1ch]

enhance a forgotten's game engine.. for what? Bobby won't allow that
