I don't have a clue as to why W3XP won't work for you, LordVader, except that you appear to be hashing the WAR3 game files. I don't know if that matters -- I seem to remember WAR3 accepting W3XP's hash results but not the other way around. Try getting hashes from a true W3XP install and see if that works.
I just rechecked, im using tft hashes.
I can login fine with RoC,it doesn't appear to have anything to do which exe im using, I was refering more to the local version number and hash byte in the "local" _GameData.txt file..
My core/plugins doesn't even attempt a connection it just definiatevly says no bad version as if it had connected recieved bad version information and exited.. only it never actually initiates a connection to anything but fails somewhere before hand....
I've packet logged it, on RoC connection happens and goes fine, on tft it flat out fails.. not sure if it's seeking local data or not that was an idea I had in responce to DBX_5's failed logins as I've been able to get on with RoC and he's unable to which lead me to finding out im failing on tft...
