Make sure you have your CD-keys ready for both Reign of Chaos and The Frozen Throne.Make sure you have the dependencies listed below.Download Warcraft III: Community Edition and unzip it to a separate folder, not into the Warcraft III folder.The point of this alpha release is to gather feedback on what needs fixing. Alpha VersionThis is an alpha version of the launcher and will have a lot of issues. A platform where we can add our own carefully considered features and thrive. The goal is to make a stable modding platform compatible with retail. Ideally you could access the 1.27b full standalone installer, but at least this should allow you to patch from a Retail CD of TFT (or ROC) up to 1.27b without any DRM interference or forced updates.Warcraft III: Community Edition is a launcher designed specifically for Warcraft III, version 1., nothing more, nothing less. I haven't tested this yet, but this page provides direct links to Blizzard FTP servers to download 1.27b which is apparently the last "standalone" version. I'm not exactly sure which version this is, but some quick reading online suggests that it might be 1.27. Go back to the last version that did the update check when you click the button, not on startup.Running the war3.exe binary directly seems to fail with a CD check. Find a way to make 1.31 skip the update check.The two paths as I see it for truly preserving the classic game client (excepting the features) are: All it would take would be for them to remove this test version and suddenly this would update to Reforged, I think. The problem is that these latest versions check for updates when you start them.

I wonder if this will continue to work long term.
