I’ve finally managed to play warcraft 3 on linux with pretty decent perfomance…<\/p>\n

First of all install the game using Cedega<\/strong>. Read this one more time…I’ve said C E D E G A. NOT wine.<\/strong><\/p>\n

After installing using your registration keys, go find a nice no-cd crack from www.gamecopyworld.com. Install that too and you are set. If you have problems patching warcraft to it’s latest version use a symlink from the cedega c_drive c:\\Program Files\\Warcraft III to the cedega c_drive c:\\war3\\.<\/p>\n

This small script will make your life a bit easier too:
\n
\n#!\/bin\/sh
\n# edit the next path
\npushd \/PATH\/TO\/CEDEGA\/c_drive\/war3
\n#cedega war3.exe -opengl
\n#cedega w3l.exe -opengl
\npopd
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

UNCOMMENT 1 of the 2 cedega lines. The first one is for use with Warcraft III The Frozen Throne and the second one if you use a loader for pvpgn (read below). You HAVE to uncomment one of those 2 lines, OK ??<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you want to be able to play with friends on your own battle.net server, set up a pvpgn server somewhere and use a pvpgn loader<\/a> to start warcraft. If you don’t use a pvpgn loader you WILL get an error about being “unable to connect”.
\nLast but not least, add these 2 lines to your \/etc\/hosts:
\n
\nX.Y.Z.W uswest.battle.net
\nX.Y.Z.W Europe.battle.net
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

Where X.Y.Z.W is the ip of your pvpgn server. Have fun!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
