Grimoire and WC3 v1.23

Main Question: Does revision 290 war3err.dll work with War3 v1.23?
Sub Question: If so, what do I have to do to make it work?


I've searched and searched and searched and yes, searched even more for a solution. I gave up hope many times for a solution, but persistence to find my crash and boredom kicks in, so this is my last attempt at getting some real answers.

After everything I've read, I see a few rumors that Grimoire works with the latest patch, and it's verified by a few people. I'm not one who likes to start new posts about anything unless I necessarily have to, but this is driving me crazy. I went to the sites below and downloaded the latest files and put them in my Grimoire folder, replacing the old files. If it does work, I need instructions that are very specific in detail, I can't figure this out on my own.

http://w3grimoire.svn.sourceforge.net/
https://w3grimoire.svn.sourceforge.n...ot/w3grimoire/

Still, I cannot seem to get it to work. I have to download every file manually from sourceforge, there is no compilation of all the updated files in one package, so I'm not even sure if I replaced the correct files.

So far after everything I tried, I just keep getting error messages, or the window crashes and does nothing.

I really want to use the war3err feature to find the crash in my map, a random crash that happens without reason, without any clues as to why, and makes me lose faith in WC3 map making altogether and kills my ambition to work with the editor any longer.

The only way for now is to roll back to 1.22 for using grimoire.

So in that case it would be useful to keep two versions of the game (1.23 and 1.21b maybe).

Files that determine the version of the game are war3.exe, worldedit.exe, storm.dll, game.dll and war3patch.mpq. You can easily make batch files to switch between two versions.

war3err works in 1.22 as soon as you use the latest version
