Warcraft II.rar

This one i've had quite a while, and now i decided to put it up for the rest of you to play :D There's no cd-image, no installation. Just unrar and theres a pure game <3 The "Beyond the dark portal" Expansion is made so that you can choose both the original campaigns and the expansion campaigns through the menu. No cd change necessary. The only bug i know is that the map scrolling is VERY fast even if the setup says slow. The only way i know around it is to use the map and click instead. But a very fast tap on the keyboard works to. I've played this on both XP Home and Pro. It MAY even work on Vista, but i haven't tryed that yet. SETUP.EXE (If you don't hear the music or voices of the characters you may have to change the drivers for the "Music" and "Digital" options. It worked great on my Windows XP) WAR2.EXE and WAR2KALI.EXE (Starts the game. I don't know the difference on a modern computer for these two.) WAR2ED95.EXE and WAR2EDIT.EXE (Starts the map/scenario editor. Same goes for this one.) UVCONFIG.EXE (Video config. Don't mess around to much xD) PS: Some homemade maps that my cousins made about 8-10 years ago comes as a plus for you guys xD Have fun <3

Hey, thanks alot for uploading. Great game.
It doesn't seem to work on XP 64-bit though. (Not surprised really.) Does anyone know of any kind of emulator or something that could make it work in 64bit?

Pettingson (2009-01-27)

Um idk actually. But have you tryed Dosbox? But idk if it works on a 64-bit system xD

Pettingson (2009-01-29)

If the game don't work you should try Dosbox, its a freeware Dos emulator.
But this game should work for Windows XP.
I even got Windows XP SP3 and it works xD

Pettingson (2009-02-04)

Well i tryed Dosbox on Windows XP and ran this game. It worked with that.
Is it Vista your running?
But how do you mean that the graphics work but not the crack?
Can you enter the game but it asks for a cd before the menu?

Pettingson (2009-03-02)

Great that we're getting troubleshooting going on!
I bet it will work for some, if not all, nait2k4. Thanks!
And now when i read what you wrote i understand the problem that SeGaTakai had. It's that problem :D

cya guys...

ZaelKael (2010-03-25)

Need some help, When i click on the "Setup" file it keep's giving me the error "does not support full screen mode" and when i click on the "WAR2" file, it keep's complaining about a 16-bit problem, any suggestion's? My OS is Vista.

Saishi (2010-06-07)

Okay, for those having a problem on 64 bit.. I tried the .ini fix and it still kept asking for a CD key. However, when I used the war2kali.exe and dragged that to DOSBox instead, it worked like a charm. Good luck!

segalvez (2010-08-30)

Ok, for this to work on Vista do exactly this:
1. Unrar in a root folder (ej: C:\WAR2)
2. Open "war2.ini" and change CDPATH to CDPATH=C:\
3. Obtain Dosbox
4. Run Dosbox
5. Type ---> mount c c:\war2 ---> press ENTER
6. Type ---> c: ---> press ENTER
7. Type ---> war2 ---> press ENTER
This should work, but you wont see any of the cinematics (at least not the intro, I haven't finished a campaign yet...).

Thanx for really cool old-school game!

Pettingson (2011-01-04)

Thanks for the tutorial segalvez! ^^

serenity3212 (2011-01-15)

Awesome thank you so much keep up the hard work around here!
All of your questions using the xp I'll give a detailed account for those of you who weren't raised with DOS.
first go get jzip
next get dosbox
next go to your computer also known as windows explorer, go all the way back to your c drive and create anew folder it'll be easiest then put the file in there it should look like a regular file now that you have jzip to unrar it. Okay next in dosbox you have to mount your c drive / name of your new file folder, now:
cd C:
now
dir
it gives you the list of folders within that folder . and.. don't matter the one you want in this case is warcra~1 cd to that
dir/p gives you the directory in pages but it doesn't really matter now that you're in the extension it should say >warcra~1 so type setup.exe it'll popup after setup just go to the other exe files and play make sure you don't have anything to do because getting your mouse back until after the first scene is a little tricky! ;) have fun

jaredk85 (2011-01-28)

followed all vista instructions but #7. war2 comes back as illegal command... any thoughts ?

Pettingson (2011-01-30)

@ jaredk85
I have no experience with dosbox since this worked on my XP computer. Though i think he might have ment war2.exe and press enter! xD

Pettingson (2011-01-30)

@ jaredk85
wops.. disregard that last comment D: Maybe he missed a step though? since that only takes you to the folder and not.
Does dosbox require you to type in the exe file too? So if thats the case maybe step 8 would be:
Type ---> war2.exe ---> Enter
Maybe? Its 4 am, sorry for the tiredness D:

jaredk85 (2011-01-31)

@ Pettingson:
Thanks for replying so quickly! I tried that and no luck. I also tried doing that step with war2.ini (instead of exe) since that was the file type earlier in the steps, but no clue if that makes a difference here or not, I don't really know much about this stuff. Any other ideas? I've gotta play this game!

Pettingson (2011-02-05)

@ jaredk85
Well i guess as a last resort, you could allways try installing Virtualbox!
www.virtualbox.org
Its a Vitrual machine program. Where you can install windows xp or older(win98 if you wanted) as a virtual machine then there you can install old games like this and similar!
You don't have to burn the operating system cd either since Virtualbox also thinks Daemon tools is a cd drive and you can mount it with Virtualbox ^^
Give that a try if all other fails i guess :/ And tell me how stuff goes D:

jaredk85 (2011-02-06)

Thanks for the tip! I'm fairly noob with this kind of stuff - I got as far as getting Virtual Machine installed, and getting Win98 installed on that, but now I've got no idea how to get the game installed on the VM... most of their help files seem to be directed at configuring the VM and it's OS, not installing programs on it, or maybe I'm missing something... any idea what I should do next to get this installed on there?

jaredk85 (2011-02-06)

@ pettingson
please disregard the previous post i got it to work on xp using dosbox but the mouse speed in doxbox and in the game is so fast i can't use it, i tryed turning down the mouse speed in the control panel but nothing. any more thoughts?

Pettingson (2011-03-15)

Well actually its a "bug" because todays computers are to good? and it kinda speeds up the game in certain ways or make it less stable (Dual cores and such) Though when installing it on a VM i guess you'll just have to send the files over there using a for example "shared folder" As in you connect a folder that you want to be able to reach from inside the VM and from there install the game just like you would otherways ^^ Sorry for the late reply, i bet its all done now but still! Oh and i think a VM would take away the speed up mouse bug since it usually the computers new parts that is the problem. So VM + Old games = Win ^^

Gashimahiron (2011-04-02)

Dudes, that's a REALLY OLD TIME GAME
(which i still play and love)
i got the 2 cd's, normal game and expansion, AND IN PORTUGUESE!
good for me since i'm brazilian and my home language is portuguese, but i found a really stupid problem with the dubbed voices....
THEY LOOK SO GAY!
i like the original voices much more, so i'm dowloading this!
btw the only 2 ways to make this game work correctly is to use it on dosbox(it IS win 7 64 bit compatible)
OR
get a hold on VMware, probably the best virtual machine ever, you can install all kind of os'es in that one, from mac to windows or linux, or even solaris!
just google vmware and download the free VM, you guys probably don't need to buy the workstation, it's just plain harder to use than normal VM and got almost the same functionality
there may be a tree chopping bug, but it's all from the game itself so don't say it's VM or Dosbx's fault
dude, what fucking tree chop bug are ya talkin' about? WTF IS THIS?
it's when,generally the orcs go cut trees it happens that they just cut THE ENTIRE FOREST OFF, OR A BIG STRAIGHT LINE OF IT, without having all that wood with them....
pretty destructive huh?
doesn't seem to happen in human campaingn though

THEAMAZINGMOOSE (2011-06-07)

how do you install if you are using XP?

granny013 (2011-09-20)

Great torrent, however, whenever I try to play a custom scenario I made or one of the PUDS you included, the load window shows up blank and will not let me click go up a folder to find any of the files. Can you help me to get to the custom scenarios in gameplay? I'm running XP and the game works great other than this problem

Taurean6 (2011-12-12)

Using vista, i get errormessage "Cannot run in fullscreen". Change to windowed, get the same message.

treetops422 (2012-01-27)

I have this game but I'd rather dl it then look for it lol.

Revonn (2012-06-04)

The instructions were really good and clear, but when changing the destination it said it's not valid etc. It was copied and pasted exactly like instructed. So that's where I got stuck, and when I tried solo I got the problem that it's not compatible with 64 bit. Anyway, thanks for the upload, even though I didn't get it to work :)

TheDarkLegion (2013-03-13)

This Ver requires an Emulator like DosBox to run under Win7 or X64 Systems - as Well it DOES NOT run "Without the CD" Thanks for the Effort though!

lolcable (2013-03-31)

I have WIN7, got DOSBOX, loaded the war2.exe via DOSBOX...
But when I click play "Single Player Game" it comes with a message telling me to insert the CD-ROM.
What do I do? Can anyone help?

Ebethian (2013-06-15)

Doesn't work on windows 8 ;(

fedev8 (2014-04-12)
