wcr has a caps thing on posts.. if your post is all in caps it will uppercase words it, i.e. “HELLO WORLD” becomes “Hello World”.
The best way to get around this is to insert some bbcode into your post.
“[color=green][/color]HELLO WORLD” will now show up as “HELLO WORLD”
AutoHotkey is what I use to remap keyboard keys, and before I started using mouse drivers, mouse buttons as well. Download it here
It has lots of uses, here are some:
-disable alt-tab and the window key. I also disable alt-f, so formation is not accidentally toggled
-keep health bars on and remove the need to hold down alt altogether
-use inventory items with a different key by remapping to the numpad keys.
After you install the program, you want to create an ahk file that contains the remapping instructions. Simply open a text editor such as notepad and save the file as “filename.ahk”. Save it in an easy to access location such as your desktop.
Following I will show code for basic functions, check the documentation for more. Each remapping instruction should be on a new line.
Disable alt-f, send ‘f’ instead
!f::send f
Disable alt-tab, send ‘tab’ instead
!Tab::Send {Tab}
Use 1st extra mouse button for Numpad-8 (top right inventory slot)
XButton1::Send {Numpad8}
Make Caps Lock act like Backspace (backspace centers on town hall)
CapsLock::Send {Backspace}
Make the left window key turn on health bars
LWin::Send {] Down}{[ Down}
Make control-left window key turn off health bars
^LWin::Send {] Up}{[ Up}
After you save your file, double click on the icon where you saved it and it should be active. When active, there should be an AHK icon in your taskbar icontray.
To disable the mappings for normal desktop use, add #IfWinActive, ahk_class Warcraft III as the first line before everything else.
Here's what my old ahk file looked like before I switched to mouse drivers for inventory slots:
#IfWinActive, ahk_class Warcraft III
CapsLock::Send {Backspace}
XButton1::Send {Numpad8}
XButton2::Send {Numpad7}
^XButton1::Send {Numpad5}
^XButton2::Send {Numpad4}
!f::send f
LWin::Send {] Down}{[ Down}
^LWin::Send {] Up}{[ Up}
Thanks to Tye for showing me a few of these! Feel free to leave questions in comments, but I’m going to have to ask you to rtfm if you want me to just make your file for you.
How to record a first person vod in warcraft 3 frozen throne!
For this tutorial I am going to use unregistered Game Cam Lite, which is available for free and easiest to use. There will be no sound in this version of Game Cam and there will be a watermark in the lower right hand corner.
Installing Game Cam Lite
1. Download Game Cam Lite and install it. At the end of the installation, it will say something about game profiles and warcraft will not be there, don’t worry about it. Do not run Game Cam yet.
2. After installing, run Profile Manager Lite. Click New Profile and then the button with the 3 dots, “…”. Find your Warcraft III directory and select war3.exe, the same exe that you use for GGC. Click open. Profile Manager will create the war3 profile for you.
3. Still in the profile manager screen, click Hot Keys. For Warcraft 3, you will want to change serveral default hotkeys such as numberpad keys that are used for inventory slots and F1 and F2 for heroes. I suggest not setting a hotkey for most as you will not need them. To do this, click in the respective row’s right column under Hot Key and hit backspace. The Hot Key will clear and say (none). For record, I use F9 because Home acts like numpad-7 for me. Click close when you’re done.
4. Optionally, edit the advanced settings. If you’re using Game Cam Lite, you can’t turn on sound so don’t try. In Advanced Profile Settings you can change video brightness if you’re having problems with that. I recommend leaving the Video Frame Size at the default of 512×384. Larger frame sizes will significantly decrease your computer’s performance. For uploading to youtube, all you really need is 320×240, so if you have a slower computer you might want to actually lower the video frame size.
As a FYI, the 2nd vod I recorded against clash, I used a registered full Game Cam and Video Frame Size of 800×600 (and my PC felt it). The higher resolution was for uploading to stage 6. I will talk about uploading later.
5. Click Close. Game Cam should now be set up correctly.
Pages 1 2 3 4As requested. In this How to, I’m going to assume you know how to install something if I give you the link to get it.
Why use listchecker? As host, you play with literally 0 delay. As a ‘lan’ game, other players will also have much less delay, oftentimes better than GGC. It also allows you to host on battle.net.
Prerequisites: You want two ports open, 6112 and 6113, or another two that you choose to use. Explaining how to port forward is beyond the scope of this How to.
1. Install winpcap. Unless you already use a warcraft banlist, chances are you don’t have this and need to install it.
2. Download the files, from the original site one by one, or I zipped them up. Place the listchecker files in your warcraft directory(where you installed warcraft), which is most likely C:\Program Files\Warcraft III.
3. Open pickup.listchecker.ini with a text editor such as notepad and edit the fields.
4. In Warcraft options, change your in game port so that it is not using the same one as listchecker. Close Warcraft.
5. Run pickup.listchecker.exe and then start Warcraft as you normally do. Go to Local Area Network (LAN)
Note: In choosing your LAN user name, list checker acts like a sort of spoofer, letting you fake your b.net name. I haven’t been banned, but just a warning. For example, if your b.net account is BoXThEKinG and you choose BoX as your LAN user name, you will show up as BoX in the game while connected to b.net as BoXThEKinG
6. Create a LAN game. You will see pickup.listchecker join your game.
7. To host a public battle.net game: in the LAN game lobby chat screen, type “/hostbnetpublic yourgamename” without the quotes and replacing yourgamename. To host a private battle.net game: type “/hostbnet yourgamename” instead.
That’s it! You can start the game once players have joined. When the game is started, you will no longer be connected to battle.net, so no accessing friends list or whispering.
Other common commands
To have listchecker auto-refresh for you, in the LAN game lobby type “/refreshbnet”.
To ping players, in the LAN game lobby type “/pingclients”. List checker will copy the pings to your clipboard, so paste(control-v) to see them.
For a full list of commands, check the original site or consult the help file included in the zip.
