Update to the Wiki which may help players with Gproxy install issues.

Postby pr0totype » Thu Sep 07, 2017 5:21 pm

Current wording:

How to set up

Click on the download link above.
Download the 2 files, and move them into your Warcraft III folder (probably C:\Program Files (x86)\Warcraft III\).
Launch Warcraft III.
In Warcraft III, click the magnifying glass icon next to "battle.net" and ensure that "GProxy" is selected as your gateway.
By default, this GProxy version is setup for Europe.battle.net connection. If you wish to change servers, you need to open the "gproxy.cfg" file in notepad and edit the server name to USEast.battle.net, USWest.battle.net or Asia.battle.net. You will have to restart WC3 afterwards.


What I propose is for those who have the two paths, to ensure that gproxy is being installed properly, state that the gproxy files must go in the C:/ directory instead of the c:/users/x/documents directory as I'm sure that can get confusing with the two install pathings.

A simple fix to this is to remove 'probably' from the set up instructions.

I assume "probably" is placed there for users like me, who installed war3 on different than c: partition of a hard drive (D:\Warcraft III).

Rather "...into your Warcraft III main installation folder..."
