+
+ +
+ Hover to Zoom +
+

Launch the game

Open the folder you unzipped into and + open Warcarft III 1.31.1\x86_64\Warcraft III.exe. + This will launch the game. +
+ +
+ Hover to Zoom +
+

Active your CD Key

The game will prompt with a launcher + for battle.net or CD Key. Choose CD Key and type in the provided CD Key. Your + CD Key can be found in CDKEYS.jpg back in the + main folder. +
+ +
+ Hover to Zoom +
+

Warning! Do Not Update

Once you launch the game it will prompt you to + update: DO NOT UPDATE THE GAME . After clicking No it may + ask you again on launch again (sometimes). Just keep clicking NO. +

Done!

Now you've setup Warcraft 3. Next you need + to setup a virtual LAN +

Setting up a Virtual Lan

In this section I'll show + a guide for setting up ZeroTier. +

Before you continue

Only one person + needs to setup a network. Everyon else can join an existing + network through the network's creator (admin). And once + you've been authorized by the admin you can join/unjoin as you please. + The admin doesn't even need to be in the same game / online. +

Admin | Network Setup

If you want to be the network admin you can + create a network by first creating an account with ZeroTier. You'll need + to supply a verifiable email but that is it. Here is a quick summary of how + to setup. A full guide can be found at + Zero Tiers own setup guide +
+ +
+ Hover to Zoom +
+

Your Network ID

Your network ID will be present on the network page. + The example netowrk here is: 17d709436c634b2b. + You will share this with the members. +

Admin | Network Settings

You shouldn't have to do anything + custom, just authorize the users who join your network. This can be done by + either adding them directly, or checking the authorize box. You can add them + from the settings menu at the bottom: +
+ +
+ Hover to Zoom +
+

Member | Download

Note Admins must also join their own + network! Member's first must download the application: Zero Tier 1. +

Member | ZeroTier UI

The ZeroTier UI is just a system-tray icon. Just + right click to perfom any of the actions listed below. (It's the icon + that shares the icon from the website!) +
+ +
+ Hover to Zoom +
+
+ +
+ Hover to Zoom +
You can right click the tray-icon to open the menu. Here you will see + your Node Id. Example: Node ID: 2d213b67f2 +

Member | Add network

To join simply paste the network ID in the form. + You can get the ID from the Network Admin. +
+ +
+ Hover to Zoom +
+

Admin | Authorize the Member

The Admin will then need your + Node ID and will authorize you in their network settings. +
+ +
+ Hover to Zoom +
+

Member | Reboot

Now that you've connected and setup I recommend + rebooting here. You can also reboot upon installation too to be safe. +

Member | Verify connectivity

You can open the menu and click + "Show Network" which will show you your connected networks. You + should see Status: OK. You can click the connect + checkbox here to connect/disconnect. Or click the network from the menu + directly. +
+ +
+ Hover to Zoom
+
+

Admin | Verify everyone is + connected

You can verify the connected + nodes by looking at the network view under Members. You should see Last Seen + "ONLINE" and their Physical IP - this will mean they're + connected successfully. You can add names and descriptions to help manage who + is who in case someone loses connectivity. +

Creating a LAN Game

At this point you should be able to create a LAN game. It will + ask you to install Bonjour services. Click yes. The game may hang for a bit + while this happens, that is normal. Authorize the network firewall popup if + it does. +

Troubleshooting

The network Admin can troubleshoot any connectivity issues by + checking if the Member's are present in their network settings. +

Status: + Request_Configuration

If you are stuck + in this status you can delete the network. Reboot. Then re-add the network + and have the admin re-authorize you if necessary. This may take a few minutes + before you're IP appears in the network settings for the admin. + + -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
