A new update is released today for Warcraft 3 Re-Reforged: Exodus of the Horde!

This is a small update about a technical issue plaguing the project since the release: the zip file produced by the project should no longer be corrupted. Please report to me if it happens again.

 

[InsaneMonster]

A new update is released today for Warcraft 3 Re-Reforged: Exodus of the Horde, featuring chinese (simplified) translation, as well as some small improvements!

I want to personally thank the guys from the Quenching mod who helped with the translation.
The project is also featured as campaign on their installer. If you want to install Quenching mod, you can experience Re-Reforged as if it was a real campaign!

Link to their release trailer:

Changelog (02/24/2021)

Note: french translation, while made for all missions, is not fully tested, not voiced and has no codex entry for the majority of the mission. Thus, it's still in progress.
Also, note that on the map description in the custom games menu the wrong version is displayed. I've dropped versioning on the map description for the future and I will remove each one of them for the next update (it's long and I had to time in this update). To find out the map version, check the trigger editor of the map.

An important update on the Scourge of Lordaeron campaign!

You all know I've been working on the human campaign from quite some time and I've finally come to a conclusion that Arthas point of view is not the best one to tell the overall story... Basically Arthas path to damnation is not something I want to spend too much time on, for it's evidently pretty minor with respect to the events of Reign of Chaos. So, I decided to switch the campaign focus to the main good character, which is often relegated to an auxiliary role.

Of course, I'm talking about Uther the Lightbringer! I think that by having Uther as main character during the Scourge of Lordaeron campaign his death in the undead campaign is even more impactful.

Let me know what you think, I am really looking forward to your feedbacks. You can see some images of the first human mission as a teaser for what's to come...
Enjoy!

A follow up to the previous announcement, about The Scourge of Lordaeron campaign!

Here you can see an exclusive image of Uther the Lightbringer, new main character of the campaign, speaking with Uther the Lightbringer, his mentor.

Happy April Fools Day everyone!

A new update for Warcraft 3 Re-Reforged: Exodus of the Horde is now released!

Changelog (08/19/2021)

This update features quite a lot of bug fixes with respect to localizations (typos, inconsistencies, some missing localization, etc), english included. Beside that, I also did an optimization pass. Technically speaking, all maps now runs on native lua and are fully leak free. I also optimized many triggers by enabling them only when needed in order to get a bit of performance back. This may be successful or not, always consider though that the high quantity of HD assets on screen (especially during cinematics) will always be taxing for any PC.
This update also features improved facial expression through all cinematics. Let me know what you think of it. While subtle, it can be noticed mostly by looking at the eyes movements of the characters while speaking.
You an also expect minor fixes through all the maps, even if not listed down below.

Soon (without the ™, so actually soon), I will release an english only open beta of the final version of Warcraft 3 Re-Reforged: Exodus of the Horde. While not yet available for download, these are the main points of the changelog (which is still subject to changes) to keep you teased. Further details for each map will be available later when the full changelog will be released:

Changelog

• The entire prologue campaign is now bundled in a single .w3n (custom campaign) map file. This allows you to select difficulty in the game, select missions in the game and load saved game through game menus.
• The entire package is around 600 MB smaller than the previous version
• The custom campaign features a custom loading screen inspired from the default game one with the appropriate information about Hive Workshop and the project Patreon page
• File organization is reworked completely: all files (including most of the object related strings) are now contained in only one file, thus making translation and fixing backend much easier
• Object data completely reworked: all custom units are assigned as map-specific or campaign-specific and they are all organized with proper ids
• Chaos damage removed on all creeps where it makes no sense to have it
• Divine armor icon now properly displayed
• Items are completely reworked: they are reorganized, harder to kill and their values make more sense on a global scale
• Integrated some balance changes since 1.31 to Re-Reforged (like Sundering Blades, Prioritize Air and more) plus some other to improve gameplay
• Improved some codex and hint texts on all missions
• Now human scout towers have 1800 sight range on both day and night
• Made Death Pact and Death Ritual cost 0 mana (with longer cooldown, like the integrated Far Sight)
• Racial shops are redone according to the new items categorization system
• General improvements to all models (some are even new, other improved and optimized for 1.35)
• All ghosts now have a 15% transparency added to them beside the model fresnel effect
• Complete rework of all walking sounds (they loop correctly now in all cinematics)
• Music save/reload bugs now fixed
• Music overall randomization is better when default music is played
• Music doesn't include TFT tracks as default tracks anymore
• Fixed music sometimes not resetting correctly to the intended playlist
• Added new cheats: now "ggwp" (add "-cache" or "-nocache" to make it save the cache or not). You can also display current difficulty using "howhard" and you can enable all campaign buttons using "notimetowaste"
• Codex system UI reworked: now using icons, more space to display text and better hints to avoid issues with scrolling (please note, it's impossible to make it scroll from the start due to an engine limitation)
• Codex system interaction reworked: now codex scrolls give XP to heroes collecting them depending on how difficult they are to find. Their position is also reworked to be easier to find in all maps
• Added custom loading screens for all missions, reflecting how the missions are supposed to take place in the extended world of WC3 joined with the world from WoW
• Optimized and improved all trees animations
• Added some unit (mostly creeps) randomization to increase replayability
• Added some items randomization replayability
• Reworked the final "thank you" screen to be more up-to-date
