[ For testing / others to improve ] Gaias Loader Reforged Again - but for 1.2E(2) & higher map versions (only for those who miss its pop-up Explorer Search of load files, copypasta, etc.)

Scroll to end of this Topic Post for the How-To's Guides:

NOTES: From this pinned but old thread (maybe abandoned because of Reforged Hate of author: SaikoDeMoN)
https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/gaias-loader-3-3.272998/

& an older version for reference: https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/gaias-loader.263929/#post-2666524/


*Most keys are changed from CTRL+ALT to WIN key + ALT:
*as of date - you can't use the updated program to 1.2E(1) or older because I'm too lazy to do it. Just use the original Gaias Loader Reforged for that or add to the Autohotkey/AHK code further.
*you could add guides for it or post it here and i could quick fix it when not feeling lazy

Known incompatibility: Autohotkey/AHK is Windows only.

How to install:

1) Extract using Windows File explorer (Windows 11) or similar 7zip app to any folder of convenience.
2) Extracted files will be in 2 different file extensions of the same file name, Gaias Loader Reforged v1.2E2+.ahk and Gaias Loader Reforged v1.2E2+.exe. The ahk file being the precompiled/editable version of the exe file. Any text editor can view / edit my code.
3) Similar to previous SaikoDeMoN's Gaias Loaders, you may install the Autohokey to edit the ahk code and compile it to an updated exe windows application. Both my Gaias Loader v1.2E2+ versions of exe and ahk files archived below are also unencrypted - you may verify using any resource extractor tool such as "XN Resource Editor" (also a free and opensource app).
4) For Warcraft Reforged, if you run the exe version for the first time, it will let you choose your load code folder (same as SaikoDeMoN) and save this path in C:\Users\<Windows User Profile>\Documents\Gaiasloader.txt or alternatively, with Autohotkey installed right click on "Gaias Loader Reforged v1.2E2+.ahk" and choose run this script.

Also, for Warcraft III Community Edition users, just revert the gaias loader update lines I mentioned here:

How to use in-game:

To load a code, type a keyword in the chatline then press space or enter. (Or press WIN+ALT+F1 to launch GUI load buttons panel)
Class - keyword:

Cleric - loadcleric
Bishop - loadbish
Monk - loadmonk

Magician - loadmage
Necromancer - loadnecro
Sorcerer - loadsorc

Ranger - loadranger
Druid - loaddruid
Hunter - loadhunter

Squire - loadsquire
Berserker - loadzerk
Crusader - loadcrus

Thief - loadthief
Assassin - loadsin
Bard - loadbard

The highest level code of that class will be loaded.

If you want to load at a specific level instead of the highest level, press WIN+ALT+L then choose the class and level you want to load - it launches open flie using windows file explorer so you can search through your loads --- even append descriptions after the your load code filename

e.g. choosing file "Bard_50 Tank build.txt" ~ will send to chat Loading: Bard Level 50 Tank build /on next line/ -load <the corresponding load code>
