How To Create Your Own Warcraft 3 Theme

2012-11-16T11:29:00.001+01:00

Many of you are interested in Warcraft 3 themes, because of this i created Warcraft 3 Theme Gallery.
~~Here you can submit or request theme.~~

But since i started college i don't have time to create requested themes.
Here is how i create themes so you can create themes for yourself :)

First you need...

Convert image to TGA
For this i use GIMP but you can use Photoshop or any tool thats allows you to save image in TGA format. I recommend Gimp because if free and it is on same level as Photoshop and you can use it for other suff.

Theme templates
This pack contains 6 different colours for interface in WC3 (buttons, progress bar etc.)
It also contains template for classic theme (default colour, only for changing background) and CUSTOMBG.reg and UNINSTALL.reg that activates and disables custom themes.
Download theme pack here.

Now you are ready to create themes.

Before you start creating create new folder where theme files will be copied.

Chose template colour and copy files for that template in new folder

Now find image for background.
Make sure that image in minimum 800x600 resolution.
The best image resolution is in that resolution witch you are running WC3.

Download image and open it with image editor, edit image if you want.
Then click File > Save As (almost on all image editor...) and save image as MainMenu.tga in TGA image format.

Now saved image copy to New Folder that you created but go to
UI > Glues > MainMenu > MainMenu3d_exp
and replace your MainMenu.tga with current

You theme is almost complete,
now only copy CUSTOMBG.reg and UNINSTALL.reg (files are located templates > to zip folder) to Theme folder and you done.

Now you just paste files to Warcraft 3 folder and run CUSTOMBG.reg.

I hope this tutorial helps you.
~~If you want to share your theme submit it to Warcraft 3 Themes Gallery.~~

I you have any question please post it in comment.

Other changelogs to beta 19 reveals new hero Frost Wyrm and other balance changes and fixes in heroes, spells and items.
From this source you can read there will be 2 new heroes.

This is where I stop. This last one was beta 17, and there are 34 betas currently. There are 2 new heroes implemented right now - both aggressive casters. I think a lot of people will like this version as it buffs the lower heroes while knocking down the high tier heroes, without setting them down too much. In general it is 80% polish which is always great to have. I'm open for questions if anyone wants them.

How To Check Ping and FPS In Dota 2

2012-07-28T18:53:00.001+02:00

~~I have been playing Dota 2 some time now and i noticed that some people at start of the game type -ping command that in Dota 2 don't work.~~

-ping command have been added to the game.
To check ping type -ping in chat box

"-ping" vs "net_graph"

Main difference between this two is size, net_graph takes huge space but -ping in showed only for 2 seconds and you need to type it every time you want to see ping.
For people with bad internet connection like me i want to know my ping all the time.
net_graph can be customized.

Ping and FPS
First you need to enable console so you can type command to show your ping.
To enable console right click on Dota 2 in Library in Steam and select Properties.

In General tab click on "Set Launcher Options..." there type

-console

Now start the game.
Show or hide console with "`" key on keyboard (one below ESC key)
In console type:

net_graph 1

to show ping and

net_graph 0

to hide ping. This will also show FPS.

To customize net_graph you can use this commands.

net_graphheight <number> -Adjust the height.
net_graphinsetbottom <number> -Defines the position of net_graph in relation to the bottom of screen.
net_graphinsetleft <number> -Defines the position of net_graph in relation to the left side of screen.
net_graphinsetright <number> -Defines the position of net_graph in relation to the right side of screen.
net_graphinsettop <number> -Defines the position of net_graph in relation to the top of screen.
net_graphpos <number> -Toggles the position of net_graph (0 or 1 value)
net_graphproportionalfont <number> -Toggles font size (0 or 1 value)
net_graphtext <number> -Toggles the text size (0 or 1 value)

WC3 Game Filter

2012-06-19T17:32:00.000+02:00

WC3 Game Filter is a tool that will filter available games in Battle.net.
This way you will easier find maps that you are looking for. This is a great tool if you are looking to play other maps that DotA.

Features

shows you the currently hosted custom games on Warcraft III Battlenet
makes them managable through filters and options
works without any hacks and is non-intrusive by just filtering TCP packets sent from Battlenet
automatically manages your clipboard by optionally or manually copying newest found games into it
theoretically is completely cross-platform (some changes needed for it to work on linux, but no Windows-only library is used)
resource friendly
accurate (games found are 100% accurate, even with weird characters in the gamename and you even may experience more found games than via using the normal custom games list)
works out-of-the-box when using the installer distribution
plays the classic "Toasty!" sound of Mortal Kombat 2 when a filtered game was found (if the option was enabled - bestest feature)

Limitations

The tool currently relies on you being inside the "Custom Games" section of Warcraft III to receive games - this may be changed soon, though. As the app relies on your Warcraft client requesting new game list updates (the ~10 seconds autoupdate + manual refresh), pressing the refresh-button significantly increases the rate of game-list updates you receive.

After hard work developing PleaseBugMeNot have released new version of DotA AI based on DotA v6.72f code named "NIGHTMARE".
This version comes with over 200 changes.

NIGHTMARE ... massive official map changes, too many broken skills, too many systems completely rewritten, too much caffeine, too many new AI heroes added... This map was an equal nightmare and a new hope for a better times. We should all thank the AITeam and Cloud_str for devoting those months so you all can enjoy that fine map. In some words the biggest changes are: -captains mode active (AI will pick and ban), all heroes got AI now, completely rewritten defense mechanism, item buying system, new gank system and so many other changes... that you`ll have to read the whole changelog to find them.. although many of the changes are invisible for you but they are in the code.. believe me And again: thank Cloud_str for all that as i was away most of the time and the AITeam testers who endured all those painful testing hours! They deserve it!

- AI will sometimes store some items in memory (called "buffered items"), to make room for any added new items. After the routines, most of the times the items are returned.
- Up till now, these items are the one creating error messages for Huskar, Axe, and Nevermore, as these heroes have buggy build which doesn't allow the buffered items to return (full inventory).
- The current error report will show which items are on error: CORE or BUFFER. BUFFER error is and will be handled by selling the items. However, BUFFER error MUST not disturb AI normal build.
