What is war3ft?

Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne (war3ft) is an AMX MOD X plugin developed for Counter-Strike, Condition Zero, and Day of Defeat. It features 8 races (with a 9th that allows server operators to choose custom skills) and 2 shopmenus to extend normal play.


How to Play

When you enter this server(its running war3ft ofc), you will be presented with a race selection screen. Simply choose a race and you can start playing! But you might want to bind some keys to get the full experience.


Binding Keys

To bind a key simply press the ` key(console) on your keyboard to bring up the console and type "bind key command" depending on what key/command you would like. Then you want to bind the following commands:
shopmenu
shopmenu2
ultimate
ability
levitation

My favorite keys to bind is this combination:
bind - shopmenu
bind = shopmenu2
bind mouse3(or "f" key) ultimate
bind alt ability

You can then use the - and = keys to show the 2 different shopmenus, you can use the 3rd mouse button (on the clickwheel) to use your ultimate and you can press the alt key to trigger your ability.
