Play Warcraft 3

[dethredic]

Is there any way to see / watch replays?

Look here (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3912071#post3912071)

The best way is the follow the instructions found in WineHQs AppDb:
http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=1177

To run an .exe-fil you just do like this:
wine file.exe

Or right-click and make sure .exe-files are opened with Wine.

Good luck!

Ok, it seemed to install fine, but when I start it up, I get a blank screen, and nothing happens.

[dethredic]

Ok, I got it to start up, but because I have two screnes, it thought of them as 1, and stretched it really wide. Also the resolutions are different, so the bottom of part of it got cut off.

Can I just have it run on 1 screen?

I'm not sure how you have set up your X-screens (Xinerama? Twinview?), so I'm not sure I can help you with that. Try to disable Xinerama, if it's enabled.

Perhaps this guide is helpful? (I know it's at the Gentoo-wiki)
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Dual_Monitors

But I know that the following keys in regedit could be relevant for resolution-tweaking:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Blizzard Entertainment\Warcraft III\Video and then the resheight and reswidth values.

I am currently in twin view

I have a question involving this subject i have ubuntu 7.10 running warcraft TFT under wine it works fine. I was just wondering if there is a way to run the game in it's own window rather then having it full screen?

[dethredic]

Not sure, if this will work, but it works in windows.

Rightclick->Properties->Launcher Tab-> command, and add a *space*-windowed

[justagamer]

Thank you it worked :)

[dethredic]

no problem, glad I could help!

BTW: Does anyone know if replays work?

[dethredic]

Now I can't connect to battle net. I just hang on the initiating connection to battle net.

Any ideas?

[Vinno]

Havent had time to try it on ubuntu yet but tried it on fedora 8, same problem, cant connect to battlenet.

[dethredic]

That is weird, I had this working before.

I guess I will just have to switch partitions to play.

[Necromundi]

I have the same problem, wc3 tries to connect to battlenet but it never gets contact.

Before i updated my ubuntu it worked flawless, but ever since i updated it fails to connect.
Could it be something wrong in the last update of ubuntu and/or wine?

[Echow]

Try updating to .9.50 at http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
If that doesnt work you might have to return to the fiesty build (pre .9.46) There is a bug with .9.46>.9.49 with battlenet.

[dethredic]

[dethredic]

Ok, is there any way to open/watch replays?

[dethredic]
