Get an English Warcraft 3

Allright here is a tutorial about how to get an english version of Warcraft 3. When you want to make a map or something else there is the problem that you must translate all the things and when you aren't so good in english like me it is very hard. I have seen a german tutorial on another page and i edit it a bit but in my opinion it is a good tutorial to get an english Warcraft 3.
So here we go:

  1. First of all download that converter here and download the newest english patch.
    [*]Now pls deinstall your Warcraft 3 both editons. But before you deinstall your Warcraft 3 copy your replays and maps and so on..
    [*]Now install both Editons (RoC and TFT) but dont patch your warcraft 3.
    [*]Now extract all the things of the converter but not in the Warcraft 3 Folder
    [*]Now start the Us-Converter(USConv_Setup.exe)
    [*]Now you put all the things you copied (replays, maps, sounds..) in that folder you installed that Converter
    [*]Then start Us Converter v.2.1.exe.
    When you clicked at OK the mpq will be changed. It takes a time.
    When it is ready there come a sound then you can end the converter and dlete it when you want
    [*]Now you must start the first fix in the folder you downloaded. The first fix is the 2.1 one.
    [*]When the first one is ready you click ok and you start the second fix.
    [*]Now start your english downloaded patch and you have the english version.
    [*]When you had copied some maps, sound or so you can now put them in your warcraft 3 folder
    [*]Now it is ready and you can play Warcraft 3 in english.


Another thing:
The Converter allows you to convert Warcraft 3 in other languages. But only: English French German Spanish and Italian

click above to dl it

The point of the tutorial is:
some guys have a warcraft in his/her language and want to make a map
but they must translate all the things in english when they changed a little bit on the thing so an english vers is better
and an english version of wc3 is cooler :)

Thank you for the contribution! :)

However, with the somewhat recent changes to Battle.net, this process is no longer needed. This is the new method:

  • Store all your maps and resources that you want to keep in some other folder.
  • Uninstall Warcraft III.
  • Go to BattleNet and log in.

  • Go to Games & Codes -> Add or Upgrade a Game.
  • Enter the CD Key of your Warcraft III without any dashes or spaces.

  • Press Activate Game, and the game should show up on your account. Now go to Games & Codes -> Download Game Clients.

  • Scroll down and you should see Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne as a game client. If it reads English (US) under the name, you may directly download it. Otherwise, you can simply click it to change it to any language you want.

  • Press SAVE after choosing the appropriate language, and then download it by selecting either the Windows link or the Mac link.

  • Install that client, patch up, and move your stored maps and resources back into the folder.

Congratulations, you have successfully converted Warcraft III to another language. :)
