Notes
What a journey it's been. The original Lord of the Clans started development in 2002, when the original Warcraft 3 was released. Never in my life did I imagine that I would still be working on this campaign over 20 years later. After so many updates we get to play it with voice acting and in glorious HD. I hope you enjoy playing it as much as I enjoy making it. Thank you, and onto the next 20 years of Warcraft!

LL Lord of the Clans (Campaign)

Reviews
deepstrasz
Quite a precious and artful campaign which could use some balancing here and there especially in VS and boss fights to make things more challenging and fun (oh shoot; I guess it has something to do with the default difficulty being Story which I guess...
I am having issues on my windows 11 with saving the game. I do not have issues like these with other custom campaigns or maps. I tried both reforged and none reforged version. Whenever I try to manually save or game tried to autosave I get a fatal error. Any idea what is causing it?
 
Dear OutsiderXE, I hope you’ve been doing well. I just wanted to kindly ask if you’ve had a chance to review the logs when you had a moment. I completely understand if you’ve been busy — thank you very much for your time and effort.

Do you have any special characters in the folder path were you put the file or did you rename the file?

Absolutely none. Documents/Warcraft III/Campaigns/filename. I also tried putting it in separate folder calling it Lord of the Clans, that did not help either.

and whenever I try to save the game or game tried to autosave it crushes:

Thank you. I have fixed an error that always appears after loading chapter 1, where the game is trying to load a model that does not exist.

I don't think this was the problem. The next step would be to load other chapters and see if we can find at least one chapter where the crash doesn't happen, so I can try to find a difference. For this I have uploaded a test file with unlocked chapters LLLotC_HD_111MAC.w3n

Thanks for the quick replies, glad to help and test it out.


Chapters 2, 3, 5, and 8 work (not sure about everything, but they launch and move through the story).
The rest are inside the archive logs for each chapter, if that helps.

I'm having a problem with chapter 8. My game keeps crashing when loading to start the mission. Is there something that I must adjust? For reference, I played it on Reforged.

Possibly due to the game engine not loading the custom imports properly with HD graphics on - has been like that in the last 3 years.

Try restarting your computer and see if the problem persists. Or, you can try playing the SD version (Classic graphics) of this campaign, which has a less bug compared to HD.

Try starting the mission fresh, and then load from within the mission itself. I had this issue with the high file size of save files of campaigns with Reforged graphics (I think that is the reason). Loading from outside the mission caused crashes.

I played using the classic graphics on Reforged, but the issue remained. Once I press any key to start the mission, the game automatically crashes. And only in mission 8

Try starting the mission fresh, and then load from within the mission itself. I had this issue with the high file size of save files of campaigns with Reforged graphics (I think that is the reason). Loading from outside the mission caused crashes.
In my case, I can't even start the mission. Once I press any key to start the mission, it crashes before the intro of the mission itself. I'm not having the option to even skip the intro of the mission to effectively play it.

I replied once telling the issue still remained, but I tried opening right now and this time it worked and the mission opened normally, like if it "fixed itself". Either way, I'm grateful for the help :)
 
I played your campaign back in the classic era before Reforged, and it’s been a blast revisiting the old custom campaigns with all the new content you’ve added. keep up the awesome work, OutsiderXE.

I did notice some text and story differences from what I remember, though that’s probably just my faulty childhood memory but i would like the ability to replay the old version of the campaign if you still have it laying around i would appreciate it if you share it with me.

also i have one small issue: during fights, there’s an orange area-of-effect indicator that feels a bit jarring for me personally. Is there a way to disable it?
if not, then oh well ill just stomach it, overall great work and wish you a pleasant day.

You can find old versions here: Lord of the Clans – Google Drive

The area of effect indicator is an essential tool to avoid enemy attacks, so there is no way to disable it.
 
I am having issues on my windows 11 with saving the game. I do not have issues like these with other custom campaigns or maps. I tried both reforged and none reforged version. Whenever I try to manually save or game tried to autosave I get a fatal error. Any idea what is causing it?

Does anybody have any solutions for this? I tried scanning and repairing, reinstalling...

Here is the video of what happens when I try o save or when gave autosaves: mp4: Warcraft III Reforged 2025.11.11 - 20.18.21.02.mp4


Any help would be very appreciated.
