Play Warcraft III LAN games online

Ce îți trebuie

• Fiecare jucător instalează LanOrbit, intră în cont și îl ține pornit toată sesiunea.
• Toți intră în aceeași cameră înainte să pornească jocul.
• Toți au aceeași versiune a jocului: 1.26a or 1.27b are the usual community builds; 1.28+ also works if everyone matches.
• war3.exe are voie prin Windows Firewall pe rețelele Public.

1. Everyone joins the LanOrbit room before opening the game

   Warcraft III scans for games when you enter the LAN screen and keeps listening, but the first scan is the reliable one.

2. Open Local Area Network from the main menu

   Choose Local Area Network, then Create Game. Pick your map — custom maps must be byte-identical on every machine, so send the same .w3x file around.

3. Set the slots and start

   Set teams and slots as usual. The game appears in everyone else’s list as soon as it is created.

4. Keep LanOrbit open behind the game

   Warcraft III in fullscreen will happily hide it. Do not close it from the tray — the room disappears with it.

2. Check the map name matches what you have

   If the host uses a custom map you do not have, the game shows but you cannot join. Ask for the file and drop it in Maps\Download.

3. Join and pick a slot

   Click the game, choose a slot and a team colour. Latency shows next to each player once the lobby fills.

Probleme și rezolvări

No games show up in the LAN list

Allow war3.exe through Windows Firewall on Public networks. Warcraft III uses UDP 6112 both ways — if one side blocks it, the list stays empty for everyone.

Some players see the game, others do not

Usually a version mismatch. 1.26a and 1.27b do not see each other. Check Version in the bottom corner of the main menu on every machine.

The game desyncs mid-match

Almost always a map or patch difference rather than the network. Re-download the map from the host and confirm the file size matches.
