WarCraft 3 TFT no CD patch name?
Filenames on ISP user web pages is where I look, long filenames are
not a problem, but usually the names have no spaces. I think they
usually use underscores or hyphens.
I think the files TKX pointed me to are going to work fine.
It's all good, not having to watch the icon wondering whether the
stupid thing is going to load or say it can't find the CD. I have a
newish DVD writer, I would have thought it could find the CD easily
enough, but oh well. It was a pain in the rear.
As far as I know, the only protection that works is them requiring a
CD key in order to play online. The rest of it is like jumping
through hoops and makes ordinary legitimate users appreciate a
hacker's workaround. They may as well require a connection every
time you start the game. I guess some people hate that idea, but in
my opinion (having DSL) it would be better than having to insert the
CD (if I ever don't have DSL/cable, I'll probably think otherwise).
But even with an always-on connection then you would have to
cope with Internet congestion, the game publisher server's
workload/reliability, and maybe other things.
Have fun.
