How do i open a protected map

Ok like i want to play a map (Gauntlet Arcade) its protected so i cant open it up in WE but how do i open in up like in warcraft III just to play it.

I don't know if I'm allowed to say this but..

DAMMIT PEOPLE READ THE FORUM RULES BEFORE POSTING! NO MAP PROTECTION DISCUSSION ALLOWED END OF DISCUSSION!

Someone lock and delete...

im not asking ppl to help me hack into protected maps...

what im trying to say is my friend wants me to download this map which happens to be on this sight.

it SAYS

Map Protection: WARNING: This map has been damaged by a 3rd party application. People call this protecting the map (thumbs down).

No they won't. Joe submitted his horrible map over and over and insulted VG 'cause he was a big faggot.

It's hard to get into a protected map if you haven't done it before.

He's not talking about map protection if you actually read what he posted. Let me answer your question.

-Extract file to your Warcraft III map download directory (usually C:\Program Files\Warcraft III\Maps\Download)
-Be sure you are able to host.
-Create the game on bnet by browsing for it under the Download section.

If you cannot host because of a router, reply and I'll give you the link for help. If you cannot host because of a firewall, turn it off or allow port 6112.

What he said. Please, let the moderators do the moderation (no problems with reporting it though, I'll have a look and see if the post is a problem or not).

I saw what he said. It looks almost to me if he was discussing opening the protected map in world editor...wait a sec...oh. Its only in wc3? sry.

if what ki said doesnt work, see if you can download it again. That usually works for me.

yea all i read was "World Edit, and Map Protection" in the same sentence, i just get tired of seeing these posts xD

... Go to Single Player, then Custom Games, then download-- then look for it. Then click start game--- are you new to wc3???
