Ripped WC movies

I thought this question would have been asked a million times but my forum searches came up empty:

Are the ripped movie files from WC3 and WC4 available for download?

i care much more about the WC3 movie files (i want to watch the story without playing the game again), but WC4 movies would also be really neat, especially since it came out on DVD. it would be even nicer if a logical story path had been constructed in a single movie file, but since it seems like even the separate files aren't available, this might be too much to ask.

thanks,

hmm...maybe i'm just an idiot.

i have already looked at the files section and just looked again, but i don't see the ripped movie files. i see some deleted scenes (the Hobbes one is great), but no complete sets...

amazingly, i still have my WC3 CDs (this is especially amazing since i just moved). while using HCl's viewer is not ideal it's better than nothing, but leads to a number of questions:

is there a good story arc to follow, so i don't have to watch every single video?

can i play the movies full screen?

if the answer to the 2nd is no, i don't think it's really worth it...i could deal with watching all the clips, tho.

thanks!

The movie viewer doesn't allow you to watch the movies full screen but it does allow you to rip them to uncompressed avi's. Although it will involve some work what you could do is rip the movies you want and then compress them with a program like virtualdub http://virtualdub.sourceforge.net/ (otherwise the files will be huge) and then you can use windows media player or something like that to watch the movies full screen.
 
There are a number of obvious reasons why we don't have all the video files from WC3 and WC4 online.

We have a file index for WC4 DVD at https://www.wcnews.com/articles . Rip the ones you like and convert them to DivX or XviD. It's not hard.

Sorry. As far as I know this would be the only way to watch the movies full screen without actually playing the game.
 
As long as you have a good Video Editior (Bink and Smacker will do the trick) it's easy to covert to DivX)
