DotaInvite moves to Battle.net

You may have noticed the discussion over this matter in the last weeks and it's finally time.

You need a battle.net account first!

We strongly suggest you to join our games using a programm that can reconnect you to ongoing games, in case you have a 24h disconnect, your cat plugs the internet cable etc.
It's called Gproxy++, you may know it already from other places. You may use any version of this program you like, there are several out there.

What you will have to do is grab your warcraft keys f.e. from your current installation with this tool.
Either start gproxy.exe and follow the steps,
OR create (edit) the file called gproxy.cfg accordingly, an example:


### required config values

war3path = C:\Warcraft III\
cdkeyroc = 8WHM2**************
cdkeytft = CB9JZP***************
server = europe.battle.net
username = Onion
password = *********
channel = clan di

### optional config values

war3version = 24
port = 6125
exeversion =
exeversionhash =
passwordhashtype =

### curses config values

### the console buffer size / window size
term_width = 135
term_height = 52

### enable split view in realm window
curses_splitview = 1

### 0: horizontal lists, 1: vertical lists
curses_listtype = 1


After this, start gproxy.exe and you will find yourself in the "clan di" chat channel in battle.net.

To join a hosted game, type "/game ####", where #### is the gamenumber announced by the irc bot. <@HornyHanna> Game READY (1447) <- This number.
Now type "/start" to start your warcraft and you will find the game in the LAN window, same as ggc.




For now, every staff member can host a game in a second, just ask one to host if no one is added.

Questions, problems, all in here!
