I don't think it will work if you don't have Autorefresh and Leak Check on your computer. Unless you have included them in the file. (I haven't checked yet).

i know its all in the Readme

The autorefresh and leak check is included you just put them in C:/Program/Warcraft III/

You used vb6 for this?
Its a different path for every computer


I think he used this command, though it will only work for the selected path ofcourse
shell("C:\Program\Warcraft III\war3.exe")
Hasslaren it would be better if you made a string variable that allows you to select the path of the programs you want to open

If you can use shell, make a config file. Make another button called settings and have it open up a text box that contains the txt in config file. And, when they click on one of the buttons you can append the txt to the file.

If you want to learn more VB6. Go to google and type Sean Greasley Tutorials. He has really good tutorials o_O

xfire counts how much and how often you play and if one of your friends plays a game that you own too you are able to join him
and you can start every game over xfire

I'm not sure, but I think auto refresh is not supported here. So you might need to remove it.

The tool sounds quite handy though.

Why is this better than Xfire? Xfire can launch all your games.

Xfire can't launch WE (to my knowledge) and it takes time to start up (since it's a pain to have it open on Startup since it can whore system resources) and I'd rather not wait for Xfire to start up just so I can play a game :p - anyway with a bit of renaming (of the tool itself, that is), you could use it for other things, right?

And you really should read - noone said anything about this being better than Xfire...

xfire counts how much and how often you play and if one of your friends plays a game that you own too you are able to join him
and you can start every game over xfire
It allows you to chat with other Xfire users as well, whether they are in-game or otherwise, and has image/video uploading on your Xfire profile and, fairly recently, the developers introduced an online backup facility. And you can only join certain games (I don't think you can use Join Game for WC3, or else I've got some sh*t to fix)

i dont know how to save the pathnames
I don't really know much about vB (or any other programming language for that matter) but maybe you could have a config file where the user specifies their WC3 and WE locations, and the program runs them from there?
