🚀 v1.1 — Auto-Loader Proxy + Critical Fixes

✨ New: No Injector Needed

Just drop two files in your WoW folder and launch the game. That's it.

version.dll acts as a proxy — WoW loads it automatically, and it loads wow_optimize.dll for you. No injector, no command line, no manual steps.

📥 Quick Install

  1. Download wow_optimize_v1.1.zip below
  2. Extract version.dll and wow_optimize.dll to your WoW folder
  3. Launch WoW normally
  4. Check wow_optimize.log and wow_optimize_proxy.log to verify
World of Warcraft/
├── Wow.exe               ← untouched
├── version.dll           ← auto-loader (new)
├── wow_optimize.dll      ← optimizations
└── Data/

To uninstall: just delete version.dll from the WoW folder.
