[Guide] How to download Warcraft III Reforged Beta Client

[Exw00]

The game keeps crashing every time i try to start a game.

[MohammadReza8538]

So here's a weird, bullshit error that I'm sure no one can help me with. Using 1.32.0.13369 / Windows 10 / gtx 1080 i7 etc. Game starts, I can create a game, choose a map, watch it load....then it gets to either 90% or 99% and I start to hear music....then nothing. So. Fucking. Lame. Tried letting it sit there for 20 minutes, w3runlocker v0.1 and .2, Forge.exe...same results.

I had ur problem too and I fixed it just follow my instructions:
copy unlocker v 0.1 to x86_64 folder and then make a shortcut of it to desktop and make a shortcut of warcraft3.exe which is on x86_64 folder to desktop and then click on warcraft 3.exe and then click on properties then find target and add an space to the end of it then add this -launch -region="beta" to the end of it click ok then run war3unlocker shortcut then run warcraft3 shortcut and thats it u can now play and let me know about ur frame rate on game u can add frame rate to game by pressing enter in game and then typing this /fps and let me know if there are any freezes in the gameplay

HOLY SHIT THAT WORKED!! Thank you very much! My framerate is constantly 60fps but yes, there are skips or quick freezes which happen every few minutes, or sometimes when doing certain things like when a unit is finished and comes out.

Can i play reforged with windows 7 professional x64 , and can someone rip the game models so i can apply them on the original warcraft 3 , i've heard its possible ?

On this version clicking "Play Offline" does nothing. Tried the unlocker in the wc directory, out of it, using a shortcut with the "beta" switches...no joy. The old version worked but I had to place a shortcut on the desktop and use the "beta" switch. I'm on Windows 10, i7, gtx 1080. Any suggestions please?

Are you press "space" button on your keyboard after clicking "Play Offline"?

[davidkim99b]

That was it, thanks!

[demonmkd2]

Thanks a LOT TOM_RUS i downloaded the latest build and with wcunblocker v3 works like a charm i can even load custom maps i also have about 98 constant fps on max settings

IF someone is wondering what i did

On this forum on first page you can download warcraft 3 reforged beta latest build
the post is by vvat (thank you a lot btw)
then when you download the game you need to run the warcraft 3 launcher and then battle net will be instaled
after that when battle net runs it will tell you that it registers warcraft 3 reforged on your pc and then you just going to need to update it through the battle net launcher just press the big UPDATE button
After that is done don't press play
Come here on the forum download wc3unblocker v3 links posted by TOM_RUS (Thank you for the links and the help btw)
And then put the wc3unblocker v3 in the x84_64 folder
This folder is located in the warcraft 3 reforged folder aka the folder where your warcraft 3 reforged beta is
After this make sure to disable your antivirus and if you are on windows 10 disable your windows defender as well
then just run wc3unblocker v3
and then after the game loads up ignore everything it shows you
it will most likely ask of you to log in into your battle net account again but do not do this
Just press the play button and then
press space
and there you go that is how i did it and it works

Make sure your ghraphic card's driver is up to date and you have the latest Direct X instaled
Do not run wc3unblocker v3 before disableing your antivirus and windows defender
doing so will possibly delete the program and your computer will ban it from runing again which means that even if you redownload it you can't use it unless you go into the security settings and remove the wc3unblocker from the virus chests

Thanks everyone for the help i finaly got to try reforged

How did you manage to load custom maps? Dropping maps into ~/Documents/Warcraft III Beta/Maps does nothing for me.

Edit: Ah, figured it out. Just create a "Maps" folder in your installation folder.
