Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos & The Frozen Throne Patch Update
Now that the Diablo II 1.10 patch is available on Battle.net, the next Warcraft III update, patch 1.13, has gone into the final stages of testing. The patch will include many significant additions, including Acts II and III of the Orc Campaign, several new World Editor features, updates to many of the maps, and numerous balance adjustments. We expect it to be released in the next few weeks. Prior to the patch's release, we will also be changing the lineup of maps currently available for ladder play.

In addition to the patch, we will also be releasing the art tools used for Warcraft III. These tools will allow advanced users to create and implement new art in the game, adding an unprecedented level of customization.

As always, we thank you for your patience and support.

What will happen with this new WE updates? is it a problem fo us map makers? or at least for me?

Capn_Sniffies	With all that, its sure to cause some problems. Hopefully they'll only be minor but you never know about blizzard. :////

saus	I wouldn't worry about it. If your map is completely destroyed, just play Acts 2 and 3 of the Orc campaign!

Roland of Gilead	I think someone posted somthing about this or posted somthing about the patch and someone asked about this. The answer is still the same, It shouldn't have any effect on them because, they use external slk files, but I don't know cuse I am not the maker.

Electromancer	Im sure blizzard isn't going to do anything that will harm your map. I doubt they want a repeat of the patch before tft came out.

Plasma[Blade]	No need to worry. Knowing Blizzard, all fellow mapmakers will be long gone by the time patch 1.13 comes out.

That sort of attitude is appropriate for Diablo 2 1.10. That's Blizzard North's fault. Y'know, Blizzard North of the "Our patch team's on it!" means "Our one guy we don't like very much has to do all this crap." Also known for their insights including,"

"We don't know when the patch will be released, but we're doing all we can to get it out."

I'm sure 1.13 will take some getting used to, but I doubt it'll seriously hamper map making efforts. But it's sorta silly to ask for people's reactions before the thing's even released, Mandrilx.

Vexorian	If blizzard don't add new Triggers I don't think it will affect us enhanced editors users, And I don't think they will make more triggers (Or they didn't announce it yet) If they do you'll have to either wait until the Editor Creators release a compatible version of their Editor or Convert all of your triggers to Jass (...)

Zwan	the sad thing is they make it sound like they are just ditching warcraft completely. "oh, here, have these art tools, we won't need them anymore, off to make a crappy MMORPG, see ya"

PitzerMike	Hey guys, don't worry!!!! I'm really looking forward to that patch coz I want to see the new functions of the WE. I can assure your that both UMSWE and WEU will be updated if the changes make it necessary, I'm sure about that:D

FyreDaug	All that will change will be slk's, possibly some we changes, but nothing to mess up umswe and weu. There will be some balance changes, IE weu will still have 10 health for something, but bliz changed it to 15. That should be all.
