- Fixed a type conversion dealing with operators (i.e. adding a handle with an integer).

Both Warcraft 3 and Frozen Throne are launching without CDs. Do you get any previous errors before getting the CD message? We usually see the Insert CD message as a byproduct of video error. Have you tried restarting your computer?

Q u o t e:


Confirmed. It just goes to a black screen.

This is actually a bug with the last patch. It affects both PCs and Macs equally. To get around it, you can skip Chapter 6 by using the Motherland cheat listed below:

Stuck on a single-player mission? These cheat codes can provide you with that "edge" you're looking for. To use a cheat code, press the enter key, type in the code, and press enter again. The message "Cheat Enabled" should appear. Note that these codes only work in single-player missions.

fastbuild: WarpTen

fastdeath: IocainePowder

godmode: WhosYourDaddy

Gold: KeyserSoze [amount](i.e. 'keysersoze 50000' will give you 50000 gold) Note - Default is 500.

Lumber: LeafItToMe [amount] Note - Default is 500.

resource: GreedIsGood [amount] Note - Default is 500.

food: PointBreak

mana: ThereIsNoSpoon

nodefeat: StrengthAndHonor

novictory: ItVexesMe

research: WhoIsJohnGalt

showmap: ISeeDeadPeople

techtree: Synergy

dawn: RiseAndShine

dusk: LightsOut

time of day: DaylightSavings [hour] (i.e. 'daylightsavings 12' will set time to 12 noon) Note - The cheat without any numbers halts day/night progression as a toggle.

upgrade: SharpAndShiny

level jump: Motherland [race] [level] (i.e. 'motherland human 04' will jump you to campaign level 3) Note - The level number must include interludes. So, to get to Human 9, you must actually type 'motherland human 12' since there are 3 interludes in that campaign.

defeat: SombodySetUpUsTheBomb

victory: AllYourBaseAreBelongToUs

Q u o t e:


So when are you going to fix Warden? By you I mean the company you represent.

---

This has nothing to do with Warden. This is in Single Player mode only, as far as I can tell. These cheats were built into WC3 when it was designed, so they're part of the program, no hax necessary.

---

Q u o t e:


Not talking about that. I'm talking about getting dropped from battle.net frequently, like many others.

---

Single player only.

---

Q u o t e:

so you're not going to fix the bug that I assume is with warden where many people frequently get dropped?

---

The honest answer to that is "I don't know."
