+# WoW Vanilla Regfix
+
+Fixes the "Hardware changed. Reload default settings?" message box that appears when
+switching between World of Warcraft 1.x and newer clients.
+
+![Message Box](problem.png)
+
+The issue is that all clients share the same registry subkey
+
+	HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Blizzard Entertainment\World of Warcraft\Client
+
+but the WoW Vanilla client handles values stored there for HWCpuIdx and HWVideoID differently.
+So these hardware identifiers keep changing, which causes the game to assume that the
+hardware must be different and display the aforementioned message box.
+
+This fix intercepts calls to RegOpenKeyExW and RegCreateKeyExW and rewrites the destination
+where necessary. This means the WoW Vanilla client now uses the following separate registry subkey:
+
+	HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Blizzard Entertainment\World of Warcraft Vanilla\Client
+
+## How to Use
+
+There is currently no launcher for injecting the DLL included. I recommend using
+[VanillaFixes](https://github.com/hannesmann/vanillafixes) which can load additional
+DLLs (and really helps with framerate issues on the old client).
+
+- Install [VanillaFixes](https://github.com/hannesmann/vanillafixes).
+- Grab regfix.dll from the releases section and copy it to the WoW root directory.
+- Open dlls.txt in the WoW root directory and add a new line "regfix.dll" at the end.
+- Run game using the VanillaFixes.exe launcher.
+
+
+## Build
+
+Building requires Visual Studio and GNU Make for Window (which can be found in tools/).
+Make should be in your system path. From the project directory run:
+
+	make
+
+This builds the binaries with MSBuild and places the DLL in the bin/ directory.
+To clean all auxiliary build files run:
+
+	make clean
+
+The build system may be a bit unconventional but I like to use my Linux tools
+even when working on Windows systems. GNU Make as a thin wrapper around
+MSBuild allows me to have my familiar terminal workflow while compiling
+natively with the Visual Studio compiler.
