WC3Connect

Standalone app used to connect your Warcraft III client to multiple communities.

Advantages

  • Join Games Easier: All that is required is for you to create an account, and select a game listed within the WC3Connect client. After, launch your Warcraft III game and navigate to the LAN menu to join your desired lobby.
  • Reduces chance of disconnection: WC3Connect gives you GProxy++ support, meaning that you can reconnect to games if your Internet connection briefly disconnects.
