Hi! So, when I start my test map and then close it, here's what happens:

and here

I need to press the "End Process" on Windows Task Manager every time I finished testing my map. It's kinda annoying and a little time waster. Anyway to fix this so that when I close my wc3, it's totally closed.

Thanks :)

I have seen this problem occur on a few peoples computers. Main reason I believe is if you're using "Garena" or another program like hamachi or what not, it can keep the "war3.exe" file running. There's no real fix for it. You just got to keep ending process :(

I'd suggest downloading a custom hotkey thing where you can do Ctrl+Alt+F4 to end the process.
Extremely useful!

lol that does suck, but playing wc3 on macs is WAY worse, if you try to close it the screen goes black and does nothing, u have to minimize and force quit but the minimize hotkey for wc3 on macs is wierd as hell and u actually have to search for it, but ya just dont do W.E and garena at the same time :p

I remember having problems quitting my warcraft 3 several years ago. The screen would become black and just the cursor would be visible or something like that. I found one solution though, have iTunes running. That was the weirdest, most random solution to a problem I've ever had.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
