Why you allways try to Rename the File?

Just run the StormSwitcher.exe

Nyarly wrote how to open the most files...

Where? %)

There are data.000, .001 and etc. files that contains all the textures, sounds and other data. Does anybody know how to open it??

[Ehnoah]

It looks like thoose files are modified MPQs, I try to find out more. But can't gurantee. I guess the one Data File is something like a INDEX File

why do the music .wav files only play for like a second?

[AshleyM]

Wondering if we could bypass the login-screen and gain acess to the character selection screen in offline mode, or even be so lucky and get into tutorial map.

I have a question here, how did they find out the description over all abilities and talents (text file) in the data-files, which program did they use?
I want to see them for myself and if there is more things to read about...

[irongete]

Im playing the tutorial now.
