Mefhisto Warcraft III Tool 1.5

[Moderator]

29 September 2012
Magtheridon96:

This is in need of an update. The HP bar feature is totally pointless, as that feature is actually built-in to the game.
There are a couple of complaints in the comments as well. I don't know if those are actual problems, but I suggest you consider them.

 

[Wolverabid]

[Pending] Warcraft III Tool seems stable and useful. It allows a gamer access to various Warcraft III settings while outside the game itself.

Mefhisto: could you update your Submitter's Description to include all the detailed information in your thread:
Warcraft III Tool

 

[BlackDoom]

[Approval status = Pending ]

Except what Wolverabid suggested, the main thing I would suggest is to change the name to a more suiting one. This one is plain general.

Try to find a suitable, not too long name for it, or at least one that can be abbreviated in a decently long and easy to pronounce string . This will help it become popular, as it will be easy to refer !

Read the whole PM I sent you and reply to it!


Part of my PM:

-----------------
1) "Warcraft III Tool" is too general as name, don't you agree?
You should try to set this straight early on, so you won't have to do so later or, when you'll have to turn "Warcraft III Tool v2.4.6" to "W3 New Tool Name v1.0", as if it would be a completely new tool.

Again, lack of uniqueness concerning the name

2) I would have asked you if you tested the behavior of all the settings combinations. But, looking over the ReadMe file, I'd say it would have been too much to do...
Optional

3) Specify the system requirements. At least, memory required, even HDD space.
Optional

4) Specify the software requirements. Does it need any specific driver or DLL in order to function properly? and such...

5) Specify the deployment license.

I love the windows key disabling (i hope it works, never tested). Death to the windows key and it's creator!

 

[RedBlade]

Sounds interestin ! I havent yet tested it, but if these features work, u rox

 

[Reap of Creep]

very nice i love this tool an i hate the windows key

 

[Sworddragon]

Very nice tool, works great.
I can't seem to get the Hotkey Movemant thingy off, I've tried and it hasn't been working. (Moves the Icons, changes the placement of the icons).

 

[Kidd|WhiteHeaven|]

This seems great, ill try this later. Keep up the good work Mefhisto!

 

[Kidd|WhiteHeaven|]

I got a trojan horse virus from dling this.

 

[Mefhisto]

So You need to fix Your PC, because no one else got it

 

[Sarowin]

WARNING!!! This tool (Warcraft III Tool 1.2) is infected by Trojan horse Generic4.IRO! Download at your own risk...

 

[Mefhisto]

Your virus is called I-Have-Virus-On-Every-File-I-Download

It uses multiple applications, that's why it can be detected as virus by cheaper anti-viruses.

 

[LeaderDark]

"Warning: Demonslayer anti-virus has detected a trojan horse in this file. Please download with caution!"

Yeah.. thats not good...

 

[super shadow]

y is there a freakin virus on it

 

[Kidd|WhiteHeaven|]

Told you, im not the only one who got the trojan horse virus.

 

[Dvargis]

errhmm.. i got 2 trojans... but othrwise its a SuberB program

 

[Hero12341234]

I just scanned it and got 0 Files Infected..

It works great!

and has NO viruses..10/10 from me

 

[m1dY]

10/10 Str8 up. Thats some tense shit youve done , Too much time on ur hands Pal lol , Well thanks this prog goes to good use

 

[dirty bann]

it didnt work it said it wasnt compatable with vista =(

 

[X-maul]

omg dont you get why you get virus - it isnt the file, its when the download is on your firewall open to the link and you canmaybe get a virus importet - (it import at the same position as the downloaded file) therefore you get a virus it I NOT the file thats infectet, its the internet... -.-'

 

[Nefarius]

Multi Languages?

Does it mean it is in multiple languages, or it allows wc3 to see/be able to write (no ?'s) in other languages?

 

[Ash]

For people that believe this file could be infected;

No, you just don't understand the actual meaning of it.

It's perfectly fine, and I commend the fact that you've asked without flaming the shi- rubbish out of the creator.

The reason it'll be labled as a 'trojan' or 'virus' is because it interacts with scripts and the like, possibly from the network drive. The anti virus flags these as being 'harmful' because of that, even though lots of programs do it.

Sure, it could be a virus, so I'm going to ask the creator (if possible) for a version of his source code. I'll scan through it and have a look it at, and then I can tell you if it is a virus or not.

However, that said, I'm 99.9% certain that this file is clean, because this 'Generic' Trojan is one hell of a Generic issue. As a programmer myself, I constantly headdesk at the fact that my complied scripts and the like are deleted by my anti-virus for exactly the same reason.

 

[qwq1234]

looks cool... cant wait to try it

 

[Vercas]

OMG, trojans, i will delete the tool instantly!
oops, yea, my online scan detected no viruses, just a possible mistake in the internet script and others...

 

[Phrosen]

I tried this program. I didn't like how the icons changed positions and hotkeys. -How do I reset this to the default?

 

[Vercas]

Yea, it makes permanently changes

 

[Phrosen]

Yea, it makes permanently changes

Actually.
I used the 'Advanced' meny that could be found when right-clicking on the Tray icon and choose delete 'registry ..something', and then it's gone. =)
(Had to re-set the video settings, etc, though.)

 

[Vercas]

it changes only the hotkeys SHOW settings permanently
for example, instead of "Attack" it writes "(A) Attack"

 

[BLKRDR]

Icon Position

it changes only the hotkeys SHOW settings permanently
for example, instead of "Attack" it writes "(A) Attack"

No, it changes position AND name. There must be some way to reset this default? I tried Phrosen's way, but nothing changed. It's honestly very annoying how the icons changed.

 

[Jonte91]

is there anyway i can cutomize wich hotkey each grid gets?? i hate scrolling with the mouse.. and the arrow keys is so far away from the hotkeys.. so i wanted to use like wasd to move the map and have spells on parhaps q,e,r,f... is this possible?

 

[DrStyles]

Awsome tool!

I don't understand replay charter. It is glitching out on me and I need a guide.
Please direct me to a guide.

i got pretty good antiviris: Did NOT detect trogen as it did with stuff by shadowfrench.


BACKPACK IS ALT-Q/W/A/S/Z/X NOT CTRL

same thing

and almost anything freeware can be detected as a virus for the same reason

 

[ShadowhunterX]

I will try this out. But if my comp crashes because of a virus, well then all I can say is that I will not be too happy. But then again your explanation does seem logical.

 

[Supaherobomb]

Good N Stupid

this was Good but.....u kno the HP thing isnt necessary
if u want the HP bar to show all the time go to Options and make it so u cna see it all the time DUH

 

[Daisuke]

Please, update it.

 

[darkseer1]

eheheh nice tool btw.

 

[Argentine]

People keep saying this file is "infected by a tojan." Well, even if the file is not infected by a trojan, any time you download a file from anywhere you increase your risk of getting a trojan virus from just about anyone who knows how to use the port your computer is using to connect to the mirror that you are downloading from in order to do, well, things like give you a virus. (I'm not suggesting it's that easy to just hack a website download link to try and give people viruses, but face it, for some people in the world it is easy.)

 

[.mitsuki]

Cool!

 

[Allain55X]

I can't understand, what's the use of this?

 

[Koloricsi]

THERE IS NO DEFAULT BUTTON, sry for capslock, but still. I want to restore it to original because this fucks up tooltips on custom maps, and annoying like hell, and there is no restore or default button. I don't want to reinstall warcraft...
