Problem wid "New Race Mod Light 2.5"

Hi, ive got a bit of a problem with "New Race Mod 2.5". I'll tell you the problems ive had, n what ive tried to fix it.

The problems:
1) After i installed it correctly, i tried to open the mod. It would show the "New Race Mod: Project" logo (as opposed to the "Warcraft III:RoC" logo, but i know that it was changed on purpose). Then after awhile it would show an error saying "Warcraft III was unable to initialize". After i pressed ok (which was the only option available), it showed another error saying "Please verify that your Warcraft III disc is in your CD-ROM drive, then click on 'Retry'."

2) After i managed to solve those 2 errors the game loaded correctly, everything worked except "credits" and "Single Player". Then i just gave up posted the message to see if anyone can help me.

The corrections made by me (in number order as above):
1) I added the "War3.mpq" files into the "New Race Mod Light" folder. I opened both "war3patch.mpq" files with WinMPQ (The one from the Warcraft III folder & the MOD's folder). I created a new ".mpq" file and copied the data from both "war3patch.mpq" files into the newly created ".mpq" file. I then renamed the MOD's "war3patch.mpq" file to "war3patch.mpq.bak" just for a back-up. After that i placed the newly created (or mixed) ".mpq" file into the "New Race Mod Light" folder. Then opened "warcraft.exe". Everything then worked except those which i have mentioned above (Credits and Single Player). They just showed this error after clicking on "Single Player"

"This application has encountered a critical error:

FATAL ERROR!

Program: e:\program files\blizzard\warcraft iii\new race mod light\war3.exe
Exception: 0xC0000005 (ACCESS_VIOLATION) at 001B:6F016CB3

The instruction at '0x6F016CB3' referenced memory at '0x000001D4'
The memory could not be 'read'.

Press OK to terminate the application."

And after clicking on "Credits" nothin happened except all the buttons were deactivated (meaning i couldnt click on anything off warcraft III.

2) Ive already said what i did to fix this, i came here to ask you guys.

PLEASE MAKE NOTE:
I have a 56k modem and the fastest i can connect at is "16.8k". So please dont say "Just download the full 3.0 version". You can say that after i have got my broadband connection 3 months from now (broadband is the same as "DSL" or "CABLE").

ALSO NOTE:
I have windows XP, and using the new warcraft III patch (1.12).

Can anyone help me. I do hope my explaination of what's wrong and how i tried to solve it is clear and understandable.

Thanks in advance,
Haz (aka Emeinem)

You um. actually bothered to type the whole error message out? O_o. TToR does NOT work with patch 1.10 and higher. You have to have an older patch installed before it will work.
