i tried the new bnet loader but it doesn't work. i think itz because of the new patch they just released on july 11.

before this i could play on bnet without a cd by do this:

"""""""""""Test this it works for me, i have winxp...

Make a copy of the original war3.exe and name
it war3r.exe and put it in ur warc3 folder.

Then take the cracked war3.exe and name it
war3c.exe and put it in ur warc3 folder.

Finally put this (inside the quotes) in a file
and name it to war3start.bat (or something
else.bat) and put it in ur warc3 folder:

"copy war3c.exe war3.exe
del war3c.exe

start war3.exe

rename war3.exe war3c.exe
copy war3r.exe war3.exe"



Now u only have to run war3start.bat to start
Warcraft and u will be able to play on
battle.net....

/raindeer""""""""""""""""""""""""""


just today it made me download a new patch. i couldn't log on to bnet after that

Hey man, just letting you know you're not the only one -- I had the same problem when the 1.01b patch came out =(.

Ok, guys, here's what you have to do. At first I had the same problem but not after this.

Now, remember all the copies you put inside your Warcraft III folder to get the .bat file to work? Well, downloading that patch changed your original war3.exe file to 1.01.4483 but not your COPY of the war3.exe file. So, make sure that your original and your copy-of-the-original-but-renamed war3.exe are of the same version.

In my case, these files are inside my WarcraftIII folder:

1. war3.exe <--the ORIGINAL file, version 1.01.4483
2. war3c.exe <--the CRACK file, version 1.01.4482
3. war3o.exe <--the COPY-OF-THE-ORIGINAL file, version 1.01.4483

(Note: B/c I'm using different names from raindeer, my .bat file looks a little different.)

After doing this, voila, you're back on Battlent w/o the CD!!

~Have a nice day~

After reading all the posts, I've downloaded the proper 1.01.4483 and renamed it. Also have a cracked 1.01.4482 and also renamed. Created a batch file. Still UNABLE TO VERIFY GAME VERSION message when try to access battle net.
Bat file is
copy war3c.exe war3.exe
del war3c.exe

start war3.exe

rename war3.exe war3c.exe
copy war3r.exe war3.exe

Game starts without CD, but that's it.
W/CD Battle.net is accessed perfectly. All war3 files have been checked. Help please.
