I am having trouble installing usmwe. When i run one of the umswe programs it comes up with an error message that says that worldedit.exe could not be found. I am using a Windows XP if that has anything to do with it. Help please.:bgrun:

the warcraft 3 registry data are gone somehow. probably because you reinstalled windows, you applied a registry data backup without warcraft 3 data in it, you uninstalled/reinstalled warcraft 3 improperly or you used some badly written warcraft 3 tool that messed up the registry data.

1. press start -> run
2. type "regedit", then press enter. you should now see a windows explorer like thing
3. go to and select HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Blizzard Entertainment\WarCraft III at the left panel
4. right click some blank space at the right panel, select new -> string value. name the new string value to InstallPath
5. double click the InstallPath you've just created. type where you've installed warcraft 3. do not put a \ at the end. the default installation directory is C:\Program Files\WarCraft III
6. press enter, close registry editor. it works now

Doesn't UMSWE have to be in the same directory as World Edit? Did you do that?

I have a different problem with UMSWE. Whenever I open it it tells me there are a bunch of strings missing. Mostly log doodads. Anyone else see this and know why?
They are NOT custom items I'd implanted wrong, these are normal ones. :bgrun:
It doesn't effect my map making but it is curious.
And no, I haven't reinstalled it yet, like I said, it doesn't effect my map making.

I had this problem when I opened up a map with UMSWE Add-Ins in normal WE...
