I need an update

Hi, I haven't been modding warcraft in a while now, I just got myself TFT and now I need an update, a few months ago I modded all sorts of things in original warcraft, I did triggers, own functions and stuff, spells ( slk editing , which we don't need to do now huh ? ) , I remade models, is there any new method? I remeber that I had to copy n paste all the vertics and stuff in the mdl when i were making models.. It took forever to remake one of them.

I have already converted 4 maps that I worked on to w3x, had some problems with some variables that no longer existed in TFT WE, but it was no bigger problem.

And the mpq, which one should you put models and stuff into ? I tried the war3xlocal, I got my blps to work in game but not my old models ?

Thats all for now, I'll soon be into this again :)

Welcome back Mjukland!

Triggers etc are the same except that there are some new functions in the trigger editor and new lots of new functions. Spell editing can be done through the object editor and most stuff you had to do with slk editing before. Some people still prefer doing some stuff in the slk files because sometimes it's easier (though they have removed all the comments from the slk's now :() If you only edit models you have to do it the old way with copying all the geosets, but you can also create your own models and animations now (it's almost bug-free but not yet perfect). The war3xlocal.mpq is for the campaign data (as far as i know of) so don't put files in it, you can put files in the war3x.mpq but you really don't have to put files in the mpq's at all, put them in the map instead with the inbuilt implant manager in the World Editor.

Tnx for the update =) , but I still rather put my files in a mpq, im making a mod and got lots of models, blp pictures, fadescreens, sounds, etc etc, So putting all does files in each map is not a good idea :) . Still I need to know in which mpq to put them, isn't there any war3xpatch.mpq like the one in original WC3 ? I got TFT 1.07, maybe its the first version and it have not yet created a patch.mpq ? Can't update to latest version until monday though.

Ill try to make some models from scratch then, though Im not so good with 3dsmax yet. Maybe I'll find someone that's willing to make me some models, I got a pretty big project that I've worked with for some time. But for the last 3 months I have'nt even played warcraft :)

I bet there are much easier ways to do certain things now, well, I have to check out the editor now =)
