Quenching Mod v1.5 - Custom Campaigns on Patch 1.32+

[frostwhisper]

The WarCraft 3 Quenching Mod version 1.5 is finally here, bringing custom campaigns to Reforged for the first time!

Join us with @Zorrot for a quick demonstration on how to load, run, and play .w3n files within the Reforged client.​

---

Special thanks to @Zorrot, @jixed and Keno for the mod and @OutsiderXE, @Tommi Gustafsson and @Shar Dundred for the custom footage.

I finally bought Reforged because of this update. I appreciate the effort put into this. As far as custom campaign visuals go, there is a lot of work to be done by campaign makers to make the maps fit the Reforged style. You can certainly see that with The Last Guardian. I also noticed some bugs, i.e. some custom sounds not playing in Lord of the Clans.

It's an honor to be approved by all your excellent campaign author, we'll see if we can continuedly do some improvement

What's the meaning of SD to HD? I don't understand.
Can we play the game in HD graphic even if the in-game options are set to original SD?

 

[Stefan.K]

@Zorrot , I saw your project but am not so familiar with it. One question, can we load the campaigns without adding your graphical and other improvements to the original game?

 

[Tommi Gustafsson]

From the video, it seems that custom unit sound sets (and maybe even normal unit sound sets) are not working. Units are not speaking anything on command. In Gnoll Campaign, Luna Moonsnout, the main heroine, should have a custom sound set, but she is not speaking anything (not even non-custom lines of the overridden sound set).

 

[The Nightmare Book]

Oh my...
That's a real big deal!
Thanks a Quenching DevTeam for adding that feature.

It's a shame that Blizzard doesn't added a new PVP ladder and custom campaign at all, but WC3 fans added it before. Anyway, this is good change, which can revive a custom campaign community in Reforged.

I believe the person playing has unit responses toggled off.

I have been playing a custom campaign using Quenching Mod this weekend using the classic graphics option, played through 10 + chapters with zero issues/problems. This tool is fantastic. It has saved all campaign players from the bugs that remain on 1.31, but were fixed in 1.32+. Thank you Zorrot + your team.

 

[Tommi Gustafsson]

Sounds great!

 

[Resyak]

Does it mean that w3n files can be opened and played in 1.32+?

The SD model has no command sound in HD version and i'll see if there is a solution

 

[Tamplier]

Do I need to install the mod in order to launch the custom campaign file or the load campaign button will do this even without installation?

We have a minuim package for this situation

Use mini version

These guys are doing a great job, grats guys, obviously there's some limitations such as visuals (3d backgrounds) and stuff that Reforged doesn't allow but you've worked with what you've had.

 

[YetAnotherYoutuber]

with time, this may yet become what was advertised, and more than a year after release was not delivered.
a bit of hope restored, good work

 

[Retera]

Does this tool work on Campaigns that have the list file removed from the W3N?

Anyway, I was kind of interested when I saw this post, but then I watched through it and realized that nothing changed as far as the game and we are all still out of control of the game's code.

This mod is biggest troll I have ever seen.. This guy claims that reforged hd mod is actually made by him.. No.. it was made by blizzard.. You can already switch to hd if you buy reforged. How can hiveworkshop stand in front of this??? crazy man..

But... what about... Warsmash.... I mean, should I feel insulted?

You are right, it can't rebuild listfile tho I tried lots of ways.
It could be considered as a heck, not as warsmash to rebuild from the bottom

Did I ever said I make reforged HD ? Have I ? Where ? It's a reforged graphic enhanced mod.

 

[Superfrycook]

I hope this mod is safe, just to keep in mind. But it's so darn epic!

For now it's safe in any case, Thanks!

The image into post says from sd into hd.. Why compare it like that?

Then what have you done? We can already play custom campaings in reforged hd..

I don't think if you can play custom campaign in reforged without quenching mod for now ...
From SD - HD means quenching mod can convert old classic campaign files to reforged campaign format

You can play individual maps that may share the same game cache but not the old campaigns that came in single w3n files.

This may come as a shock to some but I really love the Quenching Mod look. I cant recommend it for multiplayer due to the lack in visual clarity but the terrain textures work very well with the models.

 

[Rayman90]

Wow, you actually did it ? I remember some ppl were saying that .w3n format is pretty much impossible to work with without Blizzards help. Awesome ! Thank you very much, Quenching Mod team !

@Tommi Gustafsson , hopefully these news will increase the chance of Gnoll Campaigns return

 

[Ardenaso]

awesome!

also @Zorrot best ignore the obvious troll, he seems to have been against Quenching since day one (probably because his Blizzard shilling ego is still being hurt)

 

[Wlizer]

I dont see much of a difference in visual quality between this mod and reforged. Campaing update maybe handful for somebody but I rarely played custom campaings in the old version.

 

[Zorrot]

It's custom campaign files .w3n from SD - > HD

 

[Girl-Stalk3r]

Looks like it crashed when i tried to load some custom campaigns, is there an error log i can check to see what went wrong?

 

[Kam]

Well done @Zorrot

For now, too old like ROC campaign is unreadable, and if the w3n is protected it will failed too, If your client failed in loading "TIGSTRXXX" it's should be covered by these situation

 

[Mr.Goblin]

LEEEETS GOOOOooooo

Really? I played through Rowan the Wise all the way through and it worked, and I'm pretty sure it's protected. At least, I couldn't open it in the editor, I assume that's what's meant by protected.

The only bug more or less I found is once you finish a mission and click continue, it doesn't automatically start the next mission. You have to go back into campaign and go the custom campaign. Also, if you save and quit a mission, then come back to it later, the icon on the mission select screen to indicate a mission is complete isn't there. Not a big deal, since my items and stuff still transferred

Yes, next level mechansim is related to maps so it can't be converted, the protected means the listfile is removed

"Fine, I'll do it myself."

Do the unit sounds work, if you use Classic Graphics?

It will be

 

[PurgeandFire]

Ah man I've been waiting forever to play some custom campaigns again. This is awesome! Great job to all of the Quenching devs!

 

[Verb8im]

Alot of the time I try to save campaigns, and it says that the process cannot access the file because its being used by another process. How do I fix this?

restart computer?

 

[Colornap]

Hey, looks awesome! I tried to install Curse of the Forsaken but it doesn't show up in the game. I go through Battlenet with the new Reforged layout, but technically only have classic, never bought Reforged. Does that mean I need to buy Reforged? Would like not to, considering the latest developpement. But some campaign need you to be on version 1.30+ so I have to use the Battlenet version instead of my old legacy standalone version.

Edit: managed to get the latest non-reforged patch version of warcraft 3 with the help of MasterBlaster topic on this forum. So I can play the WC3 campaign and stay away of Reforged.
