This bundle is marked as pending. It has not been reviewed by a staff member yet.
In the Warcraft III Reign of Chaos beta, the Human Barracks had banners showing the symbol of the Stormreaver clan, instead of the symbol of Lordaeron.
My guess is that someone told the artist to use the banner of the blue nation from Warcraft II, but not the one with the lion, forgetting that Lordaeron isn't colored blue in that game. Since the artist didn't use the lion one (Azeroth), they picked the other blue one (Stormreaver).
This texture can be seen on the icon of the Barracks, that is still in the game:

Of course, it's the Wc3 RoC Beta mpq. It has a lot of cool things that got cut from the release
Beta Gryphon Rider Portrait
In the Warcraft III Reign of Chaos beta, the Gryphon Rider's portrait showed the face of the Gryphon, but its quotes were those of the Rider, making it seem like the Gryphon is the one speaking. This portrait was replaced with a distant shot of the world model. It also had a special texture...

Warcraft III Beta - Shaman Quotes
In the beta, the Shaman unit was voiced by Chris Metzen. He was probably replaced to differentiate this unit from Thrall. The quotes are identical, just with a different voice actor. Could be useful for a Cataclysm version of Thrall where he stops saying "I am the Warchief". Original post...

Warcraft III Beta - We need more Pig Farms!
In the beta, Pig Farms were the food source for orcs, while Troll Burrows were the defensive structures that required any type of unit to man them, basically bunkers, while Watch Towers didn't exist. This line was replaced in the final game, when the food source was changed to Orc Burrows.

Hey, wait a minute. The blp0 files cannot be opened as blp1 files, unless you convert one file to the other.
Did you use a program for that?
