why .torrent? why not zip or rar? why does it have to be something that almost no one knows about and doesnt care about?

having a .torrent program just spams ur comp with more unzippers that unzip the same thing but in another format......

Bittorrent isnt a file compresser like winzip or winrar. Bittorrent is used to distribute files to large amounts of people. The actuall file downloaded by the bittorrent program is a zip file.

exactly and the reason to use a torrent file is that so wc3c can run smoothly since it can't tackle the mod alone.

Rightfield, I have TFT and I played this TToR I think its great although there could be more custom sounds and interface, Heroes III Rampart music is used. I want to play back TFT, but I cannot. I run the play tft and go to play TFT but it is still TToR. I restart my computer 5 times and shut it down two times but it is still TToR.

The war3patch.mpq is 122MB after I played it. The War3patch.tft.mpq is 12MB. HELP!! I go on battle.net and I download the maps all over again, is my wc3 tft screwed up then? Whats the solution

Yes Iceknight made it, but I put it up for release in the DL section, so I guess that its credit for me releasing it I guess.

I have a question, do we beta testers have to download that entire thing, or is there a single patch somewhere for all beta testers?

You have to download it all.

March 2004 please redownload. Light versions are on their way. For those who doesn't know what this mod is about, here's a short description of it.

The Tales of Raviganion (previously known as The New Race Mod) is a mod that replaces all the four races of wc3 with entirely new ones. Humans are replaced with Wood Elves, Orcs with Trolls, Undead with Chaos and Night Elf with Swamp Dwellers. There are plenty of features in TToR which makes the gameplay differ alot from TFT, for instance there are naval battle support as all races comes with a shipyard and three boats. We've decided to leave the Algarvians out for the 3.2 version though. The mod is also full of new models, spells and music. The mod utilizes Advanced Melee AI for computer players and TToR is compatible with battle.net for those who also have the mod. For a more detailed list of features and models click here.

This mod was created by the The Tales Of Raviganion team which is:

RightField - Team Leader and main 3d modeller, modder and skinner.
Dre - Unitdata, Skinner, bugfinder and betatester
Ragingdemon - Spells and abilties

I downloaded it perfectly yesterday but today with this bittorrent thingy... it doesn't work :(

Anyone know whats wrong with it? The error I get is in the attached image, and the FAQ on Bittorrent doesn't help much
