This Kloader Guide is for new players to experience the content that they otherwise can't and also so to make players aware of these pre-WC1.28 methods of "hero progression". We do not endorse KLoading and highly recommend finding groups via our forums, public game bots or chat for natural progression and game experience. Please view our TKoK KLoading Guidelines before taking boosted characters into public games.

To Kload, you will require the Kloader tool with a compatible version of Warcraft 3, which is version 1.27 or lower. Follow the checklist below to acquire each component and solutions to common problems that may arise during the setup.

At the time of this write-up, there appear to be no confirmed working Kloaders that supports v1.28+ of Warcraft 3. So we will be using the classic UnrealLoader - Universal kLoader with an older version of WC3 instead.

Ever since the new 1.28 Patch, Warcraft installations run over new "Launcher" and are immediately patched to the current 1.28b. Re-installing or re-patching to an older version will not resolve the issue.

I found the most reliable alternative solution is by using a portable version of Warcraft 3, so that you may have 2 installs, the genuine Warcraft install and the portable one. I'm currently only aware of one method of acquiring a portable version - which I'll post below - if anyone has safer sources of acquiring a portable copy please feel free to comment below.

Right-Click the .exe launcher (w3l.exe as well) within your WC3 root directory and click on Properties->Compatibility and make sure Run this program as administrator is checked. Doing this may resolve issues such as no load code .txt files being generated when saving within TKoK.

This may occur on both versions, 1.26 and 1.27, and requires the following fix: Warcraft III bypass map file size limit. [ver.6]. Simply place the 2 files, forcefixsizelimit and GameDll_fix_mapsize_limit into your warcraft root directoy.
