Have you opened your ports for warcraft III?

[Excalibur13]

yes all my other maps have normal load times cept this one and its like 5 minutes

[1337rabit]

Have you talked with others who play this map mabey its just the map is a huge ass map. :p

[Excalibur13]

it is,but when i play the normal version its like 1 1/2 minuntes if not less,they said they got ti to

[1337rabit]

So its just the map then theres nothing you can do but get a better computer or just go out and do what i do which is don't click me some new ram every month.

[Excalibur13]

uhg....theres got to be a way to fix this....theres no way im waiting 5 mins each time to play this map

I guess you could go into world editor and take out some custom skins and put relatively closely looking blizzard skins in there and that might take down the load time a lil bit or you could just redo the whole map and make it the sameish but smaller.

[Excalibur13]

im just wondering just why does it only do it to this version and not the normal once since they both have the same skins

Maybe it has a big .wts file, try using WTSInliner.
