Well, if you take the time to look at the first post on this page, you'll see that this WarCraft III: The Frozen Throne mod has been finally put to a complete stop. For real this time. I do mention that I may dabble with the terrain and whatever else I want in the mod, but it will never reach a full release.

Doesn't mean I quit Ardent Heroes RPG. In fact, the activity with that RPG has been a lot better lately than usual! Although my time nowadays is pretty limited.

Miss_Foxy · Feb 21, 2011

It will be completed, don't give up guys, please. It's really saddening to see great projects go to waste, please do continue it

Skycraft · Feb 21, 2011

Foxy you don't seem to understand.
They can't finish it because they don't have someone with the qualified skills they need and dedication to the map to finish off the project.

brian1 · Mar 3, 2011

i speak a small english. can yu the sturmwind map uploden

Craka_J · Mar 5, 2011

Nein.

Razosh · Mar 6, 2011

But if you're not gonna finish it cant you post what you got so far and we can see what you've done?

Project is officially dead.

wise decision.. sooner or later, you'll have to admit it.

at least, can you give chance to your project's fans to try the unfinished map? Just to see what you and your team have been doing with the map. I'm sure they will appreciate it.

kris4o · Mar 17, 2011

you are right wee need to see what is done.
Wee waithing for so long time and now nothing.
i am very big fan of you mod.
PLS UPLOAD IT. pls pls pls pls.

Dr. House · Mar 22, 2011

Got to agree with everyone and i think if even said this before about the fact it will be doubtable this project will be ever finished cause of the fact your unable to find the proper people to do the job. Anyway as the other people said they waited ages for a beta and now see the project fall down imo the least you could do is put up a certain kind of beta or something to satisfy them. Hope that this did not sound offensive in any kind of way.

Razosh · Mar 29, 2011

It has been over 20 days since I posted that comment and not to be offensive but I dont think he cares about whatever we say since he havent even bother to give a answer.

kris4o · Mar 29, 2011

Just give us all that you have finish.No one in
the world can't make a mod like this.
Why you don't give us the mod when its allready dead?

Yep, and that's really pathetic.

Yea, give it to the fans. That's the least you can do, creator.

Craka_J · Apr 1, 2011

Believe it or not, I do care what fans have to say. I just can't provide good answers this time.

But seeing that there are other aspiring modders for WarCraft III who may be able to lead the project to a better stage of completion than I, I have come to the conclusion that I WILL RELEASE TWO VERSIONS OF THE MOD SOMETIME TONIGHT.

The two versions will be the most up to date one, which really isn't playable, and the old version that isn't compatible with 1.24 that is playable. They will be unprotected and the content contained in the mod will be available to everyone. I am sorry that I could not finish the mod, but it was too much for just a couple people to complete. Hopefully someone else in the community can make better use of the resources we had.

[EDIT]
I thought it'd be nice to actually release the project on April Fools, a date I've fooled thousands of the release in the past April Fools days. So this is just to confirm I am not pulling anyone's prosthetic leg here. :]

Erader · Apr 1, 2011

Lol, aprilfools! XD
Good one

Razosh · Apr 1, 2011

awsome unprotected and free to play with good to hear that you actually do care even tho it took you a mounth

Craka_J · Apr 1, 2011

Project released as promised:

Dr. House · Apr 2, 2011

+Rep not cause you release it but you keep your word

and im wondering. You could make a terrain map out of this since these models are not WoW rips but selfmade just something you could think about afcourse

Craka_J · Apr 2, 2011

Yeah... hopefully people can make half-decent WoW Maps playable on BNet now. If not, better luck finishing the campaign.

I appreciate your kind words. :smile:

Razosh · Apr 3, 2011

I agree with Dr.House +rep for realesing the long desired map I really hope some1 will pick up where you lefted it, and if not we'll have to enjoy usingthese models and skins in our own maps

Good luck with arden heroes.

I just uploaded the two versions to ModDB.com, but it may take a couple hours for them to authorize it so that other can see/download it. Here's the link you'll find them at:

The downloads are up.

Oohforf · Apr 4, 2011

Hehe, well, that would have actually been a great April Fools joke

. Lie about releasing the beta, and some time later actually release it.

Adiktuz · Apr 4, 2011

testing...

hmm... its really unplayable... haha...

will at it at the WE...

Dr. House · Apr 5, 2011

I wonder. Craka_J would you allow me to make a terraining map out of this? i got enough free time so i could do it with your permission afcourse.

beantony · Apr 6, 2011

Thanks Craka_J, so is it really a farewell for Wc3:WoW?

Go for it!

I don't think this is a permanent good-bye for me. I tend to always go back to it to throw in more terraining improvements and so on. But I wouldn't count on it --- Ardent Heroes ORPG is my first priority project at the moment and we're trying to push for a BETA release in a few weeks.

Dr. House · Apr 9, 2011

Just to make sure: which people do i give credits for the models?

Craka_J · Apr 9, 2011

There's a really long list of who created what.

But off the top of my head, Nasrudin did pretty much all the Durotar, Orgrimmar, Teldrassil, Darnassus, and Thousand Needles models and textures.

Dr. House · Apr 9, 2011

Ok thanks

i keep you updated if you like with the progress of the terrain map.

Craka_J · Apr 11, 2011

I wouldn't mind checking out what the community is doing with the mod, now that it's out.

Razosh · Apr 12, 2011

Well I can't still do anything with it since I'm trying to fix my computer and this computer I'm using now can't open w3n files

But a question to when I can open it, is it cool if I use the grunt skin and maybe someother skins? (I'll give the maker of the skins credit for it ofc.)

Craka_J · Apr 13, 2011

Sure. Thanks for asking. :]

Razosh · Apr 13, 2011

And thank you to you

Craka_J · May 2, 2011

I set the status of Wc3:WoW to "Released" on Mod DB. Now Mod DB users can give the mod a rating from 1 to 10. Even though the mod isn't really complete or meet its high standards, I'd be interested anyway in seeing the votes the mod can get.

Miss_Foxy · May 4, 2011

Hmm, I'll try keeping these threads as active as possible though, since I know of some people who are willing to use this project as an example, ask for permission to continue some stuff, or just want to find out and discuss more about this

Manoo · May 6, 2011

Currently i have wc3 1.24 version, when i used version changer to 1.23version and tried this mod Wc3:WoW - Version 1.5 [BETA] i see black screen, nothing more i can wait forever but i still see black screen. Maybe someone know why?

Adiktuz · May 6, 2011

1.24v? what the? 1.24 has only up to e...

Manoo · May 6, 2011

1.24v = 1.24 version and stick with main question.

Adiktuz · May 7, 2011

its just because the versions have letters after them you know...

but, when do you see the black screen? when you select the campaign?

Manoo · May 7, 2011

No, then I enter campaign, press "enter world" ( I don't remember how it called ) and see black screen. I tried on 1.24 Wc3:WoW - Version 1.5 [BETA], I enter hero selection whiteout any problems and select any hero ,then I send back to campaign screen.

kris4o · May 8, 2011

well the mod works fine for me.

Adiktuz · May 8, 2011

well, You cannot play the 1.5 Beta on 1.24 and up, coz as Craka said, it was for 1.23 and below... that's why it returns you to the campaign screen after some actions...

but if you cannot play it in 1.23, maybe your wc3 VS has a problem or something...

Axmet · Jun 9, 2011

Craka_J You're doing one of the most ambitious projects in warcraft 3, and I think you are behaving to him before the release, and I as a fan of the project would help you, in general, that's Russian site with ~~WoW~~models , and forgive me for my slightly broken English

Adiktuz · Jun 10, 2011

@Axmet - not sure if that would do anything now as the project is dead

Thrall-TheWarchief · Jun 12, 2011

When will this awesome mod release?

Adiktuz · Jun 12, 2011

uhmm... you're not reading... he already released the thing they reached... but its far from completion, and this is officially dead...

Sorry I didn't knew that cuz I was not active from many months! :goblin_sleep:

Miss_Foxy · Jun 30, 2011

Argh, really hope somebody (Or even Craka himself, at best) would be able to continue this, a lot of potential shouldn't go to waste so easily.

Razosh · Jun 30, 2011

Well if more people with potential would have joined the team this project wouldn't have gonne to the dump

SMBComix · Jul 22, 2011

Sorry to see that the mod is dead. I've been following it for a while hoping for a finished release. Guess that's not gonna happen anytime soon though. /sigh

In any case, sir, do you mind if I use these maps and models in my upcoming projects? I'll give credit where it's due, never fear.
