WC wacko problem

[idodik]

Greetings Hive,

A problem, I have.
It began with me trying to add the latest patch manually because my Battle.Net wouldn't budge. It got stuck in the middle and stole my War3.exe thing so I couldn't play, so I uninstalled and reinstalled again. The problem was that I accidentally installed it to C:/ProgramFiles/WarcraftIII/WarcraftIII and I just moved all the files into ProgramFiles/WarcraftIII. Now not only I don't have Battle.Net on my game, but when my game starts to load any type of map it crashes in the middle...

Do I have to uninstall and reinstall AGAIN? Oh no I have parental controls crap on my user!!!

Well, you have to.... I've explaind some steps about fresh installation, it needs a fresh, with copy and paste and moving files to different locations, your BNU update or patch won't work.

1. Uninstall warcraft 3 roc/tft whatever and get rid of it - before that keep maps you will need - custom maps, no need to keep melee maps, they all come with installation. So uninstall and delete traces of patches or other remaining files, make a clean installation.

2. Install Roc,Install TFT

3. Now after having installed TFT, download the war3 latest patch
http://ftp.blizzard.com/pub/war3x/patches/pc/War3TFT_124a_English.exe

Copy it to your war3 folder and launch the file (war3TFT_1.24a_english.exe) from there.

If you have no problems in the registry done by a previous mess, that should work. Again, if your keys are original BNet should work.

InstallPath problems in registry are easy to be solved, by changing the value data in the Value via the Windows Register Editor.
