    Hello flickers flickers :))

    Ok guys so Im facing this problem since I bought a new Ati graphic card, you see the problem is whenever i run game in lobby i can see the screen flickers every 3-5 seconds and its very annoying. So I went to see for myself if I can dig out any solutions over forums on the internet and believe me I've tried everything. After a long search and using various options that gave me only failure i found a solution on the flickering problem.
    You see the I solved the problem by making a shortcut from my frozenthrone.exe and on that shortcut properties i made an extension in the target field and the extension is -opengl so it was something like
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Warcraft III\Frozen Throne.exe" -opengl" and after I run the shortcut that was it!!
    The flickering was gone and warcraft was running smooth and perfect! (although its a very old game nowadays with new pc software and hardware unfortunately old and popular games are facing various problems, yes we all know that).
    Ok so I found a solution for flickering but now I cannot find a solution how to run gproxy from that very shortcut where i was able to put -opengl on target, but proxy is running from the very warcraft.exe file which doesnt have editable target properties like banal .exe shortcut If u see and understand what I mean can u help somehow, or atleast find a solution for this in near future so other people with same problem won't have any issues.
    best regards and many thanks.

    Btw, you can also start gproxy manually and then w3l from shortcut in the meantime.

    1. In gproxy.cfg, change console=1
    2. Start gproxy.exe
    3. Start w3l.exe in less than 15 seconds

    Should work. If you are pro enough you could even write a .bat script to do it all for you.

    Anyway, the patch should be out today or tomorrow.

    Does gproxy.log file exist in the same directory? Did you run as admin?

    These are all files I got after I installed Eurobattle.net client? Is there something missing?

    No. You probably did not run as administrator tho.
