    im here watching the warcraft 3 on 60 fps, and it hurts my eyes, someone knows how to upgrade it to 144hz?

    Hello and welcome. Try editing the following registry file HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Blizzard Entertainment\Warcraft III\Video and change the framerate to 90 which is the hexadecimal equivalent to 144hz.

    Hi, thx for the answer, there is no framerate on the registry... there is refreshrate and maxfps. those two are the more close to framerate related, and maxfps is set up on 200, if you could tell which one i have to edit... Or if i have to make a new one. And lastly, its a private warcraft 3 server, idk if that affects.

    What if you are running the game in `Windowed Fullscreen` mode? The game should then utilize the set desktop resolution and Hz.
