Warcraft III Bnet Loader Error
If you’re using the Warcraft 3 – The Frozen Throne 1.18a PvPGN-Loader (W3L.EXE, W3LH.dll) with Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne, DotA, a no-cd, and v1.20c Blizzard patch and want to play on both bNet and PvPGN servers and get the following error when you run the ACID loader:
Wrong Game.dll version (wants 118)
then you need to run system restore to an earlier point. Why? Well, I did three things before it broke:
- Installed new video drivers for my Geforce 6400go
- Installed and uninstalled (because it sucks) Windows One Care beta
- Installed Windows Defender (Antispyware beta 2)
My guess is it was the video card drivers that did it, because on linux systems, you have to have the right version of openGL compiled with WINE to run the ACID loader. But, to fix this annoying error, don’t reinstall, just run system restore.

Good to all them who got That Error To enter Battlenet it is becurse of your Internet you have to fix it to 6543-xxxx-xx-*** or whatever your ip is, just remeber that 6543 need to be in that start, if it dont work then you have to Run that War3 that gray thing, and make that fils to an GM fil then it should work fine,
when i press the battlenet button to enter,a message pops out and says that there was an error writing to your hard drive while trying to download a file frm bnet.
Can somebody help me with my damn problem?
you need to run it on an admin account thats what worked for me

Step 3: Temporary Restrictions:
Please try to connect to all four Battle.net Realms (USEast, USWest, Europe, and Asia). If only one Battle.net Realm is inaccessible to you, then it may just be a temporary connection problem or a temporary restriction. Battle.net access may be temporarily restricted for one of the following reasons:
- Spamming text in the chat channel (often associated with bots)
- Rapidly connecting/disconnecting to Battle.net (often associated with bots)
- Repeated attempts to use an invalid CD-Key
- Repeated use of an incorrect password may lock an account login for your protection
- Repeated use of third-party programs (hacks)
- these include but are not limited to sending bad packets, flooding the server(s), and the use of hack programs
you only need install war3net for play in pvpgn and bnet -> http://rapidshare.com/files/78881484/War3net_1.21_Panda.exe

ok for ppl who need to know this seemed to fix it (I have legal copy so don’t know if this works with naughty copies):
1. install patch
2. configure your router to allow ports 6112 – 6119 UPD and TCP
3. I disabled windows firewall – will check if it works with allowed program later
4. Restart modem – despite what everyone said about not needing to it just didnt work until I did this.
5. Restart your computer
6. Pray to a god
Good luck, hope this helps someone.
hmmm i just changed server (magnifying glass button next to battlenet in W3) and now I have gotten as far as downloading the update.
Guess ASIA is better than US West

hey!!!!
everyone!! I found the solution for this error!!
>Please reconnect to battle.net or apply the current game patch manually.
all you need to do is:
1) go to the website where you download hellkiller patch,
2) then extract it and put all the files exacted into the warcraft folder.
3) then remove the old files which are the same as the ones you downloded (step 3 not required if it is the first time you do it).
4) run the game through the “window”> wc tft. and have fun.
i hope i help you guys. if any question just post them on this website.
plz help with the patch error 1.21a > Unable to validate game version. Please reconnect to battle.net or apply the current game patch manually. i give $100 to the one who find a solution. step by step would be apreciated. thx
Go into properties on your desktop icon and then compatibility. Have it run in compatibility mode with XP service pack 2. Also, right click it and run it with administrator priveleges.

You need the battle.net(bnet) loader of your version of Warcraft III. There are some links on this page that’ll help you out or you can try googling the error.
At first i was having trouble starting the game at all. Then blizzard made me a securom file and the game started turning on perfectly. But after installing the securom file i kept getting the problem, Unable to validate game version. Please reconnect to battle.net or apply the current game patch manually.
What can i do to solve this. It is really frustrating.
I may join if you solve my problem.
I’ll tell you the EXACT message :-
The CD key provided is currently disabled. (0)(Warcraft III Reign of Chaos)
Is the 0 supposed to be the serial key I entered?
I make b.net servers but no1 ever joins tell me y???
Say, is there a working serial key for War3 ROC? I have a cracked version with 1.21 and the loader installed but when I try going to bnet, it says that my serial key for Warcraft III Reign of Chaos is invalid. Help would be appreciated.

Heres the trojan name … Trojan.AddUser.o search for it online and you’ll see that a lot of people have scanned and detected this virus… the only problem is that there is not much info online about it.
theres a trojan in the 1.21 frozen throne loader .. I downloaded it from gamecopyworld.com and I just scanned it … it had a trojan in it.
Fixed The Issue, it was a conflict in my Network Address Translation. If anyone needs support for the PvPGN software drop me a line.

Man.. I got Warcraft 3 ROC and TFT I can’t connect to battle.net it says sumfin about invalid battle.net server please connect your modem or sumfin… I’ve tried re-installing the game like 4 times… -_- Can sumfin assist me? By the way… I have ROC and TFT. So please help me out.
I needa get this game runnin’ 1 thing… I got my cd key on the internet… That might be why. well just help me out thx!
Is anyone here using the PvPGN Software?
I’m able to create and log into my server from my home network,
while also being able to have external players log into the server.
The problem is, that the external players are unable to join any games or the internal players are unable to join the games the external players have created.
They get an error that reads “Please make sure the Game Name is spelled correctly, or the Creator may have cancelled the game.”
PvPGN.org seems to be down, so this is a shot in the dark to anyone who may be hosting their own server.
All Game Ports are open,
Players in LAN have unique netgameports.
Thanks in advance.

WarCraft 3: Frozen Throne v1.21 [MULTI] No-CD/Fixed EXE works on BNET too and has no virus (the one by Hellkiller). Tested it out myself. Follow the instructions and it will work perfectly, I promise.

if you haven’t realised, there is an msinfo doc in there. The instrustinos are as follows…
1 – cut the v1.2 loader directory into the ww3 directory. this is the folder INSIDE the 1.21 nocd folder.
2 – double click on the install
3 – from then on, just follow instructions
When I launch the file it says:
ERROR 2: Can not Install from outside the Loader directory.
Run the Install from inside the Loader directory.
Can someone tell me where I could find the loader directory?
Please help!
I keep having this message from avg after downloading and extracting the 1.21 loader by hellkiller from http://www.gameburnworld.com/gp/gamefixes/warcraft3thefrozenthrone.shtml that there’s a trojan in it so i couldn’t install it…anyone know other alternatives aside from that site?
Hi i have the complete files for Warcraft III and The Frozen Throne just need the cd to run it and my cd got scratched so i can’t use it to start the game..

plz help me.
well the problem with invalid server is that you are useing the wrong shortcut icon to the game… the ACID one … its is grey
Yeah, I could go for a decent walkthrough on how to get this new one working… The previous version I had worked fine and then I downloaded this 1.21a one and I have absolutely no idea where to go from here… Help = Much appreciated!
I have v1.21. I was able to connect to bnet all the way. Until a few days ago… it started popping out this msg "Unable to connect to battlenet. You may be trying to connect to an invalid Bnet server. If you are using a modem, you may need to connect manually to the internet, before connecting to Battlenet."
But the funny thing is i already have internet connected. And I can connect to the server US East, but I need to connect to US West which I can’t. Mine is an original WC3 Frozen Throne.
Any solutions? I’m a noob with technology stuff. But i so need to get it working before i suffer withdrawl symptoms lol. Thanks

how did u manage to get the 1.21a loader with bnet work i m not able to install it….
please guide me with the same….
Ok I got it sorted out now, but encountered another problem.
The same as alot of people. When I try to enter battlenet the error message "invalid battlenet server" appears.
Is it because I am using a faulty CD-key? I have all of my other setting working as they should. I have tried a trace route to the USEast server and it times out at the first hop. I checked my event viewer and nothing appears.
Anyone have a solution??
Okay.. I hate installed the new v1.21 patch I got from blizzard.com..
Worked fine…
I then downloaded HellKiller’s new crack release from gameburnworld,com…
Game runs fine (and in the bottom runnin indicates that version 1.21 is running)
I have the loader (command line supported) with the crack.. but when i try to install the loader an error message appears on cmd prompt saying…
ERROR 2: Can not Install from outside the Loader directory.
Run the Install from inside the Loader directory.
Can someone please explain how I install this loader correctly.. I’m a semi-noob
You can get a 1.21 no-cd crack at:

If you get the Wrong GAME.DLL (need v118) and you’ve tried the other solutions eg reinstalling, adding path.. try searching registry for the path of your WC3 install (eg C:\Program Files\Warcraft III).. I deleted the first 3 or 4 entries and got mine working again..
If this WORKS for you.. then can you post the actual key so everyone else know… I’d do it, but mine is working now.. hehe.. much appreciated…
Bevsta!

what i can do =( ?
How about we dont play Warcraft3 at all? I thought it was one of the most unbalanced, hero-based, and all around worst RTS ive ever played in all 25 years of my life.
It shouldnt be called a RTS, because there’s no S. It’s real time (or for the computer, time seems irrelevant since they build ultra-fast it seems) but no strategy. There are a slew of units, but they all clump together and by the time you decipher the ones you need to select from the fray, you’re already dead.
This game is annoying. Stop playing it. Someone shoot the Blizzard development team before they pull a George Lucas and end up ruining the Diablo series as well.
hey when i do click in the loader he say me could not start War3.exe! Make sure the loader is in the same dir.

will some plz give me a step by step process regarding how 2 make warcraft tft work online i have a cracked version
FIXED! THANKS TO THIS:
http://eurobattle.net/showthread.php?s=98d0ce028af432078d728f121c2f1718&t=26646
i reinstalled, it has no affect, if u actually looked at the registry, it has no mention of the version number.
reinstall, because registry see war install alredy as 118
when you update to 119 and more then it clamp up registry
so if you reinstall and keep your w3 direcotry it will work
that metho didn’t work either, i’ve just uninstalled wc3 altogether, don’t want to play anymore, i’m thinking if i did a fresh install it, MIGHT fix the problem, but unlikely as i didn’t alter any wc3 files before it stopped working.
I did a system restore and am receiving the same error, i’m thinking about manually removing hotfixes until it starts to work again. I’m leaning towards Windows Defender as the problem, it’s a pity the hotfixes are labelled so tediously.
I also received this rare error message. It only happened to me after i did a windows update.
