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.
