Are you annoyed of refreshing your game slots all the time when hosting a game in Warcraft 3? Then you can use one of these awesome Auto Refresh tools who do the stuff for you! I know there are many tools like that out there in the Internet , but I had problems finding a good one, so I will upload it here.
Download Warcraft III Auto Refresh
Download Warcraft III Auto Refresh sourcecode for Visual Studio 2005
Download Warcraft III Auto Refresh sourcecode for Visual Studio 2008
How to use
Host a game in Battle.Net and start Autorefresh. Make sure you set it to the right port, usually 6112, but when you changed it ingame (like I did), you will also have to change it in the application. Inside the game, all slots will be filled by a player called “Autorefresh” every 15 seconds and thus refreshing the ports.
Thanks to Jason Ureta for creating this awesome application and even sharing the source code with us!

what do you mean? extract the files from the rar archive somewhere on your hard disc, e.g. to C:\ and put a shortcut on your desktop. then it will work

What do you mean? Probably you just opened the file from inside the RAR archive. Unrar the archive somewhere on your computer, e.g. C:\ or your Desktop, and then start it from there. Then it will work.

i have my outorefresher open and it doesnt work nither does my name spoofter or DR.

@patrick:
this may be due to several reasons… first of all, you must host the game. second, you must set auto refresh to the correct port settings. usually it’s 6112, I changed it on my PC because i have 3 PCs that are hosting WC3 games.
third, your fire wall should block neither WC3 nor AutoRefresh.
if you checked all that, tell me more about your problem.

You need .NET Framework in order to run this app. Download it here and install:

the autorefresh is constantly saying “no connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it”. what’s the deal??

Good that you figured it out…

hey im gettin a error. index width must be greater then minwidth .. what does that mean. even thu it is refreshing..
November 12th, 2009 at 11:00 am
This error usually appears when you minimize the tool. Just keep the window up, don’t minimize and it will work fine.

How can i find my port number? It isnt 6112.
I am also getting an error saying
“Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately. Width must be greater than MinWidth Parameter name: Width.”
What does this mean?

@Elidablo:
Hi! You can see your port number when you go to Options -> Gameplay inside Warcraft III. The application crashes only when you minimize it. Just leave it open and start Warcraft 3 without minimizing the AutoRefresh tool and it won’t crash any more.

March 11th, 2010 at 8:50 pm

Sorry, I didn’t develop this tool and thus can’t change anything. But it refreshs automatically every 15 seconds, so there is no need for pressing any button.
