Heavy Locker

no not yet=( did u send it to [email protected]?

If heavylocker isn't working, try using ExtProtect (link is in my sig)

last time i used ex protect.. it made the map alot bigger.. i cant afford to make the map any bigger.. or did the maker change it?

I am the maker, and if your map gets bigger when you don't save a backup I'd be interested in seeing the map (unprotected) so I can figure out how that could possibly happen. If it still gets bigger with the latest version(at the link in my sig) when you don't save a backup(which means you don't put a password in the box), please email the map unprotected to the email address at the link in my sig.

ok.. i did all that.. ok it dont make it bigger.. now when i try to use the map i get a "map cannot be found" so.. i dont know

When you try to play the protected map you mean? Are you using version 0.1.1.0? If so, I would greatly appreciate you emailing me(to the address at the link in my sig) the map so I can track down the bug and release a fixed version

ya im using 1.1.0b when i play the unprotected map it works fine.. when i try to use the protected one.. it cannot find the game

Please email me the map (go the the link in my sig to get my address)

Simple extra protection:

in the .w3m, make a folder called "Scripts" and put the .j file in there. War3 can still read it but WE screws up :)

Interesting protection.
More interesting would be how you found that out.

He knows it from me:

and I knew it from zepir's map editor back when I cracked its protection and figured out how basic protection works. ExtProtect already does that (along with many other things of course).

Well as far as that bug in the current version goes, unless he's already tracked it down I narrowed the cause of the crash in my specific map to two things, a unit at 0,0, and (all) the rects. Go figure. Could upload the map/map script if desired.

Anyone happen to be able to e-mail me an old version of HL? I'll give ExtProtect a go for protecting for now...I mostly use heavy locker for the optimization/compression anyways.

Any word on whether a new version is being developed or not?

Nope, but I bet he's working on it on and off.

Come on BlackDick, I want to shrink my map even more! ;)
