Hey guys.
Just a quick tool I made the other day to help myself add the sound faster (if you have seen me doing so at the map discussions)

What it does: Switch the spree sounds in dota (Killing spree, first blood etc...) with the sounds from Duke Nukem (used in HoN)
I used it myself and seems to work okay... Just run it as administrator.

Usage: Open the .exe - > Click on the big button - > choose your dota map - > Map is saved as mapname~1.w3x
if your chosen map was
C:\games\wc3\maps\downloads\dota.w3x
yourr saved map will be
C:\games\wc3\maps\downloads\dota~1.w3x

If it was ~1 it will ~2 etc..

Unlike haxorizer, this tool is free of charge ;)
And guess what? So is the source.
You can change the sound files at the folder, but keep them with the same names..

Remember I did that in a few moments so it might be buged (alot)... I uploaded the source also. Enjoy ;)
Language: VB.NET 2010
Coded at: Visual Studio 2010

Yet another useful tool, but may I know where do you get the Duke Nukem sound from? If it was HoN, then how do you get it out from the software? Because I wanna try the flamboyant pack in DotA. :)

EDIT: Can't seems to make it working for me. :o

1) I ran a google search on duke nukem sound and I got a rar with alot of sounds, I think it was some one who made the exact thing, but not for dota, for LoL. I had to get all the files and see what belongs where as they were a mess (they were in the names that LoL can read, so it was like HeroKills1 etc.. and some sounds were duplicated etc... I think I still have it some where) - So yea, google did that.

2) Have you ran it as administrator? and make sure the folder is there and not renamed or anything.

2) You have to put the software in the warcraft III directory? And yeah I did ran it as admin.

No, but the tool must have the Sounds folder inside.

Yes, they are on the same folder if that's what you mean. Still can't get it to work tho. :/

Are you running on an x64bit? Is that will require a different .exe

That is odd, well 3 people downloaded it here on wc3edit.net and only you are getting the error, sorry Liaw, it can only be 1 of 2 things
1) I did some bad coding - yet it works for me for some reason
2) Your PC is Hunted by Ghosts! 0_o

Haunted not hunted :/
i've downloaded it but havent tried it yet.
i'll edit this post after i try it and say whether it works for me or not.

Edit: well i dont get any errors but with the increasing size of dota even compressing the map normally wont make it playable without optimising.
