An mca64launcher for Warcraft? (Opening Ports for Public Internet)

[AquaFire]

Hi Everyone,

I am a college student in a University, and I am aware that most of these universities do not promote opening certain ports, so configuring them would be nigh impossible. I am wondering if there was an existing type of launcher software that would automatically open the ports while a user is logged into the battle-net server. I am making a map at the moment, and it would be a shame for me not to be able to host it because of internet port errors.

I know doing this is possible because I have been playing Brood War, and there was a program called "mca64launcher" that automatically opened the "6112" ports for you, when it was normally closed; therefore, allowing the hosting of custom games. I was able to host games in my college campus when I launched it through the 3rd-party launcher, but was unable to even PLAY a game without it

Any help regarding this manner would be greatly appreciated (unless means to doing so is outright illegal).

Opening the 6112 port isn't necessary to host on WC3 anymore. There are various ways to do so via Battle.net or 3rd part PVPgn servers, as shown here: Host Multiplayer WarCraft 3

Enjoy!
