Can anyone help me, please? I am getting desperate.Īdditional information: I have last drivers on my video card, last patch, I'm running everything as an administrator, I have original Warcraft III, firewall is off, I'm running with Avast's shields turned off, I have directX 11, GeForce GTS 250, Windows 7 32 bit. I can't edit my maps without NEWGEN so the -openGL solution is not enough for me.
Reinstall and adding -opengl extension after the location of Warcraft (via: Trying to get Warcraft III to run but getting a directx error - Video - Laptop - Dell Community) fixed only basic Warcraft (RoC, TFT and editor) but didn't fix NEWGEN editor which still appears the same error message (as written above). I tried to follow this tutorial:, unsuccessfully. 'Please verify that your Warcraft III disc is in your CD_ROM drive, then click on 'Retry'.' Click the Disable button next to Direct3D Acceleration. Please ensure that you have installed DirectX 8.1 or higher and that your display drivers are up to date.' Step 3: Disable then re-enable Direct 3D: - Click Start (For Vista Users, press the Windows Key (the key with the Windows logo on your keyboard) + R (at the same time) and skip to step 3) - Click Run. I was running Wc3 for like 6 years without problems and now, as Blizzard likes to say, 'times changed'.
