I may be relapsing and joining the WoW world again, and today went to a PC room to join my friend in a game. I haven't played in a long time, so I was just setting some stuff up and chatting with him.

But I was noticing how much I missed all the addons I used to have back in the day. On my way out I noticed some Korean kids playing and they had the full custom set up UIs.

I know that they don't DL and set all their key bindings and shit like that each time they head to a PC room. That would take far too much time.

So how do they do it? I know they can take the addon folder, but what about key bindings, and macros and all that stuff?

Thanks for the help all you other WoW addicts out there Smile

I don't play wow or anything, but I'm sure you can just copy the config files that contain your keybindings.

Key bindings are saved on the server, not on the computer. As far as add-ons, yea like you said, they probably copy and paste their addons from the flash drive.

But if the best choice is to play the entire games from a flash drive/portable HDD. WoW doesn't have to have been installed on the computer. It doesn't needed any registry files to play so you can basically play it on any computer off a flash drive/external HDD.

The whole thing off a thumb drive? Isn't the folder something like 10g?

That certainly would be the best though, as then I could also have English (working in Korean sucked since it's been so long since I played).

HOLY crap, not really. They have a clone game of it, but not actual DOTA in W3.

They have other DOTA clones but not nearly as good as I can surmise from watching.

Christ, I love DOTA but I get kicked from every game because BL detects I'm from SK (south korea)

The full game with both expansions and completely updated to the latest patch is more in the 15-20GB range now.

As soon as you log on, hurry up and press up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, start. After you do that, the add-ons should work.

I haven't played WoW in a couple of months. I should start up again.

If anyone is interested in Heroes of Newerth (it's just like dota) use that link and enjoy your beta key. That link won't last long so use it fast

I started up again b/c that code works Razz My buddy has a private server so I can give myself epix Smile But my home comp is too old/shitty for it, so I need to run to PC rooms.

DL'ing the beta now. I was a huge fan of DOTA.

I've been itching to get back into WOW. If you're still actively playing or want to start a new toon, leave me a message.
