Patch 1.22 has been released for WC3:TFT and the Ladder has been reset! Code:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- WARCRAFT III: THE FROZEN THRONE VERSION HISTORY -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Patch 1.22 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- FEATURES - There is now a replay auto-save feature in the options menu. Replays are automatically saved to the "replay" folder. - The game is now automatically saved in the event of a potential disconnect. These saved games are placed in the "save" folder. - Player color selection can now be limited by the number of players in the game using an option in the "Advanced Options" screen during game creation. - Added an option to always show unit and building health bars. - You can now enable and disable the display of minimap signals from players and other observers using chat commands: /showminimapsignals and /hideminimapsignals. - Added a new in-game cheat "maxfps" to limit the maximum frame rate to the given number. Example: "maxfps 30" will set the maximum frame rate to 30 FPS. BALANCE CHANGES HUMAN - Scout Tower repair rate changed from 12 to 20. - Knight damage increased: Attack cooldown changed from 1.50 to 1.40 and base damage increased from 25 to 28 (Average damage is 34).

Apparently they'll fix DotA specific problems but not JASS specific problems. Maybe we can convince IceFrog to bitch about the JASS problems and they'll fix them thinking it's for DotA? |

And that is it? The "almighty" patch we've been waiting for? I am disgusted. And doing fix especially for dota? That is not only retarded, but the most selfish thing I've ever heard. |

I blame capitalism. |

Blizzard and capitalism??? NO WAI LULZOMFG!!11 But anyway, they are already ruining Diablo 3 by putting WoW warrior instead of traditional barbarian. He even has rage instead of mana now. |

Fucking bastards. |

I don't see how it took them a year to do THIS, give me a hex editor and I will do it in two minutes! |

Thanks blizzard Really, I will no longer have to care about fixing the optimizer for this. This was not DOTA-specific, it was map optimizer-specific... |

what, so it wasnt only for DotA, blizzard only thought it was? |
| 07-01-2008, 12:58 AM | #10 |
Vex fixed the bug already, but blizzard did so as well, now they are claiming vex's work as their own. Bastards. |

OHHHH GREAT!!! thanks Blizzard!"!!!1[/endsarcasm] Now I can't use JNGP.... shit. |
| 07-01-2008, 01:17 AM | #12 |
So JNGP doesn't work anymore? If you have patch 1.22, that is. Apparently, patch 1.22 totally destroyed my Warcraft III. Warcraft wouldn't even open, and many of people are getting the same problem are complaining at Blizzard's Tech Support. I reinstalled WC3 and downloaded the full patch up to 1.21b. It works completely fine, now. Does anyone know of the problem? About DotA: I'm not surprised; believe it or not, DotA is Battle.net's flagship for Warcraft. Of course Blizzard would care about that. They even have international championships. They probably did the auto-save feature and "always show health bars" feature for DotA, as well. You never know. However, one guy at the Tech Forums said that he has Vista and the patch works for him. I wonder if XP/MAC users are the only ones affected? |

YE, but we have a dota fix! THANK YOU BLIZZARD! |

ppffft, it wont even let me download the RoC update from battle.net. It says something like server failed |

About it not working in XP, I am 99.9% sure this is SP3 related. Edit: grimoire-less 1.22 works ok in WINE, btw. |
