Eve of the Apocalypse: Twilight

Chain of events: 1 In the eurobattle.net warcraft3 server, eota channel, me and Scheba. [Sunday 16-10-2022 00:28:27] [Scheba] I just looked and saw eota wiki is down [Sunday 16-10-2022 00:29:12] [Scheba] i don't remember how long i haven't visited so i don't know when it went down [Sunday 16-10-2022...

If nothing goes wrong, I'm availabe again to play again this weekend, got my health issues sorted out

I won't be able to play for "some" time, I'll update when I'm healthy again Recently I got some kind of stomach/intestinal sickness and playing after eating only makes things worse, it might take a week or two to sort out maybe more, depending the health tests results and what my doctor te...

Undead necromancer, the caster unit that spawns for every lane wave for the undead race, gives no gold, so now UD > ORC in race opness

Today for the first time we tried multiplayer, and desyncs happened 5 seconds after the heroes spawned on the map, like, the heroes showed near the altars, everyone started moving, bam, Scheba desyncs, 2 seconds pass, I desync and Kevin is left alone in the game Edit#1 Kevin and I did another test t...

Remember to download the latest "2GB" patch, seems they fixed some stuff like the colors-brightness Yesterday I played another EotA game with the "human" race and they replaced many sounds from that race and elsewhere, I don't know if its because they use the elven units or what,...

After some more playing around:
If you click the options button before the game mode menu loads it won't load after exiting the option menu
The game uses insane amounts of memory, around 2GB just being on the main menu

Disclaimer, I don't have reforged and for now I don't intend to buy it, keep reading and you will understand Seems the release is a shit show, see https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/warcraft-iii-reforged-patch-notes.321818/ Blizzard has "removed" the original game, playing classic now in...

No idea, we been playing wm's versions, don't know if that's a factor too. The main issue is if blizzard will keep legacy support, AFAIK they haven't from the comments in https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/patch-1-31-1-live-update.316199/ Also reforged is in beta now, I don't know how old maps are...

Last weekend we did a candleburg where the AI got Time Cleric, it seems the healing debuff talent that affects "ebb and flow"? stacks a lot, it's easier two have two casted at the same time (late game) and then there are the ones casted by the clones, it stacked to the point that it nullif...

Just as a heads up Playing community AFAIK is only kevin, scheba and me, see http://eota.emufarmers.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2325 for details how/where are we playing Official server/s lack bot support since 1.30.2, plus the game is broken, many maps crash or don't work properly, even &qu...

Wait till the game is out first, in "theory" old maps should work in reforged, like what they did with starcraft remaster (but that's a way simpler game in terms of map modding). Otherwise they will kill all the old stuff Right now since 1.29 or 1.30? warcraft 3 has been broken by blizzard...

Bot is up

https://www.blizzard.com/en-us/legal/fba4d00f-c7e4-4883-b8b9-1b4500a402ea/blizzard-end-user-license-agreement Yep I noticed now... and after reading some parts of the EULA I guess we should have seen the events coming from afar I already disconnected the bot from the "official servers". My...

https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/patch-1-30-2-ptr-update.308919/ --> AKA blizzard kills the bots PD: And they don't give a proper replacement, so yeah, say bye to playing EotA on the official servers. I'm not up for the one player has 0 latency and the others suffer formula. PD2: I forgot, with ...

Scheba and me did a test game yesterday, a bit over 1 hour game on Storm, everything seems to work except the race upgrade sounds, which is tolerable. PD: does Arboreal's wisp cancel regular town hall teleport? (yesterday it didn't, it happened more than once), I remember doing it in the past but I ...

https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/wa ... -1.308580/ <-- says they fixed the crashes, but who knows what other stuff have they broke, we'll see when we meet again

Bot updated and running.

https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/pa ... te.308209/ <-- *C-3PO "here we go again"*#2

If you followed the hive last patch thread https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/patch-1-30-9922-hotfix.307772/ They hinted a new PTR with fixes will happen, they haven't stated they know how to fix the crashes, I would say they haven't acknowledged them officially. So the eventual fix might take a l...

Played 2 more games, 2 more crashes. The sound issues can be solved disabling and enabling the sound options.

Did some tests in single player: Two games I played, two crashes, first one I got to early level 3x, second one was level 5. In the hive forums people are complaining about this, I don't think it's an EotA issue. The new sound system is garbage, it's like only 2 sounds can play at the same time, uni...

Hotfix patch released

https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/pa ... ix.307772/

I wonder why they have a PTR.

https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/warcraft-iii-patch-1-30.307722/ Bot is up. We'll see if the bot and EotA works the next time we meet. Just an odd issue that might affect any of you: after the patch, I started the game, I play windowed full-screen, but the window was centered, not using all the ...

New 1.30 ptr update https://us.battle.net/forums/en/bnet/topic/20766756974 In the "Bugfixes": Multiboard minimize icon location is correctly located With this, and if Blizzard doesn't introduce more bugs, EotA will be great again. Then again last weekend we managed to play Storm twice and ...

My fear is that they will kill stuff made by the community: the bots, gproxy or modding stuff... Reading the comments on the hive about this patch they are replacing the sound library with a new one, which will kill injection using .mix files, which the last iteration of gproxy uses. Then again with...
