Incorrect, Saphire.
There was the CD version of the game which included full speech and movies and the FDD version in which these were not included.
Obviusly, the one on Abandonia is the FDD one because of size constraints.

Then why don't you have the full version cause if you can have flashback cd which has like 85 mb then why can't you have the full version of warcraft 1.

A full CD version of Warcraft 1 would be far larger then 85 mb.
In fact it would be over 400 mb, and thus far too large to be hosted on Abandonia.

A full cd version of Warcraft 1 is only 97+ mb large, not 400, as said above. I know what I'm talking about as I have the full cd version of Warcraft.
It's not Warcraft II after all (which is also just around 15 mb large without the cd music and videos, btw.), it's Warcraft 1 with speech and videos in FLI format.

In that case, it may be a good idea to send a PM to Kosta and tell him about it.

By the way, it's 97 MB when you pack all the files from the CD into a single archive, right?
The value of 400 MB I gave was basing on an ISO image of said CD packed using 7-Zip.

No, 97 mb is the size of all files on the Warcraft CD, not some ISO put into an archive. Just imagine, Warcraft 1 was such a small game, what a suprise huh?

Not in Warcraft. There were CD audio tracks in Warcraft II though.
