hi guyz, juz to let ya guyz know tat when the above (in the subject) happens, do what it says... i just lost 2 days effort on doing the AI in triggers and not to forget, tons of custom units... im scrapping my map and not evr gonna touch it again thanks to the all-unstable worldedit...

if ya keep going on working on worldedit when war3.exe crashes, what might happen is that saving files will sometimes fail... and when ya exit and try to open the file again, whatever tat has been done by you will not reflect on that copy... so beware... dang, i feel depressed rite now... :( hope none of this happens to ya guyz, bless ya all!

nopez... not an error... seems like all the saving that i've done once in awhile have not been executed... all the triggers, units that were done in this 2 days are all gone... :(

i 1st realise that there is a problem when war3.exe just exits on its own when i test map... units which i removed on the map still show up when i test map... saving wont work as well, it just doesn't save... and i've been like doing all the work for the past 2 days with little rest... managed to sort out the AI for each individual comp hero that i've made for the comp player and now, poof! gone... if only i had exported all the objects and triggers, but its hard to expect that worldedit won't even save the file... really, i feel like crap now...
