For custom hotkeys:

Get the War2HotKeys tool, drag and drop the stat_txt.tbl file on top of it, edit your hotkeys and then save the file again as stat_txt.tbl.

Hey Guys, I'm new to this forum. I have a MAC running High Sierra 13.10.6.
I downloaded and click on the new icon and it doesn't do anything.
I don't see this listed but saw people run newer versions without issue.

Any advice and help is appreciated.

Unfortunately High Sierra is not supported anymore. The tools I'm using dropped support for it some time ago.

Is this already part of the main downloaded installer or do I need to download and add this separately?

It's not included yet, you will have to download it separately

Created a forum account just to say thank you @fois this macOS release is amazing! I wasn't able to play for many years because I switched to macOS. Now I can play again and it works better than Windows 10 install did 7 or 8 years ago. I love how it minimizes while in chat and fullscreens when in game but I can also do the keyboard shortcut to open Spotlight which unfocuses the mouse cursor then I can change my song on Spotify on the other screen etc.

Nice! Glad to hear it's working well for you! And yes, I tried a bit more modern setup here with borderless mode for easier task switching. On the windows install we couldn't do that, too many would complain about it because they don't like changes

BTW, I just updated the first post with some additional info about the macOS download (there are some useful hotkeys)

« on: August 27, 2024, 05:14:24 AM »

All plugins have been rebuilt to lower the hardware requirements (they should all work now on a i486 CPU)

MMBlack
- Fixed a bug in the Black2Pink patch detection

HardwareCursor
- fixed hardware cursor auto resize on newer cnc-ddraw versions
- Can now hide the cursor the same way the original game did (e.g. on mission briefing or cutscenes)
- Removed animated cursors

lobby_map [NEW]
Made by lambchops, updated by me and zelya

- Fixed a bug/crash that could disable the map preview image
- Added new .ini setting to set custom coordinates for the map preview image
- Added new .ini setting to set custom colors/palette entries
- Does now detect the HardwareCursor plugin and disables the fake cursor that is drawn on top of the map preview image

@Alex1891 You can use any plugin you want with the widescreen patch, but you have to get the lambchops plugin loader AKA "LC.DLL". You can find it in the first post inside of the "lobby_map.zip"

Or here the direct link to the file:

I'll add support for the saveloadFixByMistral on next update though, that way it will work without lc.dll as well

Ah, that'S strange. Normally such permissions errors only happen when you copy the .app around. That's why it was wrapped in a  .pkg file to avoid such problems

Installed the latest macOS version of the game. The game doesn't start. Nothing is happening when I launch it.

What version of macOS do you have? You need at least Catalina (10.15) for it to work

I'll have to test it, in-game on our server it does look different now. There are like 4-5 different layouts, not sure if it's possible to have it working with all of them

first 2 entries are https://warcraft2.online/ (this is blocked by comcast)

last 2 entries are en.war2.ru (this is blocked in some countries like ukraine because of the war)


Both point to the same servers, they're just different domains

Is your internet provider comcast? They've blocked the new domain, so the first two entries will not work anymore. But the "... Mirror" and "... B/Mirr" should still work
