Ultimate Battle v2.50

[malakhim]

Did you ever read Unregret's comment below?


I think the entire game file is corrupted, which prevents you for playing the UB. The only thing you can to do is reinstall the whole WC3.

I don't think the problem is my W3 game. Since I can play all maps except Icecrown and Divide and Conquer. This problem is not something that happens to me only, but to others. Anyway thanks, I'll wait for the Mod developers to solve it.

I have also faced this kind of issue, but it's not related to this mod.
Sometimes, when I made changes of map using MPQ Editor, the map is either invisible in the selection menu or unplayable with no players selection.
Usually, this happens because the map is corrupted.
For now, you can only play the maps other than 12 players map (Emerald Gardens, Icecrown, Divide and Conquer) or if you still face numerous issues, get Ruins of Alterac version of UB instead.

Fortunately, I can play the Emerald Gardens map.

Hello @Unregret . Are these map work in warcraft 3 TFT v.1.31?

Hello @Unregret . Are these map work in warcraft 3 TFT v.1.31?

All UB maps are compatible with all versions of Warcraft 3, but I can tell you 1.31.1. does not have "War3.mpq" file because that version uses the new file format known as CASC. This means you can't use the Resource Package available in this thread to play latest UB maps. Furthermore, playing maps on 1.31.1. is not recommended since there are a lot of bugs you might encounter when you attempt to use that version. If you want to play UB without MPQ, you are going to need the older versions (Ruins of Alterac map) OR just use the older versions of WC3 which has MPQ (1.29.2 or below).

I'm trying to play this mode in 2022, but the unit models are gone, they just don't appear, and most of the icons are green, I really wanted to play with friends, but in fact, 2018 has been a long time, and I don't think it's the same anymore way to install what is needed.

@Chaffin

My man, read the reply just above yours. It looks like that because it's trying to load models and icons from an MPQ it can't find because that MPQ is now a CASC file.

I strongly recommend reading my post above. It contains helpful tips on solving common issues.
You need Resource Packages (War3.mpq) if you want to play the latest UB maps.
If you still face green icons and missing models, get the older versions (Ruins of Alterac). It doesn't rely "War3.mpq" file.

Could this work using WC3 Mod Manager v1.1.1 ?
Apparently, the tool still works with Reforged and if they simply add some alternate Blizzard.j, SLK files etc. it would work with all melee maps and not just the modified ones provided here.

The file structure has been changed with latest Reforged patches, which is now located in the "retail" folder.
Also, this mod is heavily protected, meaning it's uneditable (can't be opened with MPQ Editor).

Do you have any update plans？

I was told by Unregret (the original author) and he said he no longer continue his project (Ultimate Battle) due to personal reasons.
For now, 2.50 is the latest version of the mod, but older versions (Ruins of Alterac only) are still available. You can even play it on Reforged, but only supports the legacy graphics.

tons of the model is not visible and clickable there, was hoping the original author give the unprotected version

Are you using the older versions (Ruins of Alterac) or the latest ones (map packs)? If it's the latter case, make sure you downloaded the War3.mpq first.

i'm using the old alterac v 2.6, tons of models still missing even with the legacy map (already using classic graphic, and it still missing), oh and i'm using the latest 1.35 game patch

I'm pointing out that this mod seems to be outdated because the original authors (Unregret, Riki, Wa666r, ZiBtheWand3r3r) decided to not continue this big project due to their personal reasons. Not to mention, Blizzard released a big update for Reforged, which literally breaks some important elements (such as triggers, models, etc) and also potential crashes during the gameplay.

I love custom races and the ones from these maps are quite impressive. I haven’t got to play all of them (some missing models seemed to be the problem) but the ones I have played seem very high quality. I hope we can get an update for this or we can figure out what would be needed to allow someone else to update this. I understand the MPQ files no longer being used is the issue but doesn’t hurt to hope for an update from any of the other authors either.

That's what I was wondering after all these time too. Maybe time will tell.
