Meh. I'm on a VM. I'll give it a try.
>>
>>338265781
Like I said, if you don't believe me just google Wargus (look for 2.4 version). You will also need to grab the Stratagus engine .exe from Stratagus 2.3 version since 2.4 version of Stratagus (the one that comes with Wargus 2.4) is fucked and won't launch.
They're both on github btw.

>some version of VC wasn't fucking found

Damn it. This bullshit. This is why I don't usually use Windows.

Nevertheless. It seems there is indeed WC2 in there. I cannot guarantee there's nothing else in there along with it.
>>
It's a fully installed and setup version of Wargus 2.4 with Tides of Darkness and Beyond the Dark Portal data included and ready to go. Literally retard proof, all you do is extract the files and launch Wargus.
>>
>>338266098
Like I said, you can literally set it up yourself if you don't trust me.
You will need DOS version isos of WC2 and Beyond the Dark Portal btw since it doesn't work with B.Net edition.
It install music a bit wrong though (due to music being in wrong order on beyond the dark portal CD and it overwriting the default one from wc2).
It also lacked the Orc 6 and Human 6 music tracks that were added in B.Net edition so I added them to that premade package in the OP.
Also added Orc briefing since this thing by default reuses Human briefing music track for both.
>>
Does it have training queues (from console version) though? Only thing deterring me from playing desu

>>338266325
Nah I'm going to use it. Thanks for sharing. My Windows installation is expendable anyways.

It has many features of modern FPS like training queues and ability to select way more than 9 units at once.

That only applies to the early maps which are too small for your resolution to fill the entire screen.
Once you reach bigger maps that problem disappears.

Old fHD RTS games.

Does it have pixel scaling like OpenRA?
It is a great effort on the dev's part but playing a game designed with 96dpi CRTs in mind on a 141 dpi fHD LCD makes everything excessively tiny.
>>
>>338279645
Just play in 1360x768 if you've got a 1080p display.
Problem solved.
That's what I'm doing so shit isn't tiny.
And yes it's pixel based like literally every old pixel based game.

Illidan becomes empowered by the light and turns to an angel of light energy. He also merges with Furion, his brother, and becomes a completely new entity of light, life and demonic energy, with nothing but pure love for the priestess of the moon. Furidan the Nephalem becomes instantly aware of the multiverse and the constant struggle between the light and the void on each world. Calling upon his Warglaives (known as a symbol of hope on his planet), now merged with the Ashbringer's Naaru Nth Metal stone, Furidan charges against the void with the aid of the Thanagarian fleet, in one great battle so he could go 10,000 years back in time and together with his best ally Abathur, Furidathur will finally undo the evil that is Aku, and become one with The Force. But that is a tale for another time

It's that simple.
If you're computer illiterate and somehow don't have VC redists installed in this fucking day and age evne though Steam does it automatically for you, then you will also need to download VC redists and install them but you probably won't have to.

I'm saying the drought started after BtDP, anon.

I'm not implying W3 was a bad game but it was definitely no sequel to Warcraft O&H and Warcraft 2 and I distinctly remember a metric ton of fans comaplaining about the shoehorned RPG elements when all they wanted was a proper RTS game.
>>
>>338285980
I think the RPG elements for heroes were a major improvement.
In WC1/2 and SC1 you NEVER end up using heroes and just keep them cuddled and protected because it's game over if they die.
WC3 did away with it and actually made them respawnable (at a gold price) so you actually end up using them in battle.
I will never understand why could anyone think that WC3 isn't an objective improvement over WC2.

I'd understand if it was one off for some specific mission like the ones were you infiltrate a facility and don't have a base of your own where you NEED to keep the hero from dying, but doing it for ALL missions is just stupid and you end up never using them.
WC3 did it right.

Warcraft 3 has been supporting fHD resolution for quite a long while now, actually.
They even remade a lot of the assets and added them into the StarEditor.

HD remakes are cancer that shouldn't exist.
Just look at AoE2HD... sure, it exists but most people still play the original with a fan patch because it is cheaper and leagues better.

No. The game has a set resolution to make it fair for people who didn't have a fortune to spend on 1024x768 monitors.

Unless you remake the entire game from scratch, you are screwed.
The OP of this thread did the same but Warcraft 2 is comparatively a much simpler game and less prone to inaccuracies (imagine Brood War with all its hack-y pathfinding and you're set for a life spent listening to reports of units going the right way instead of fucking up like in the original).
