I love my SC X-Tra Editer ooo i cant wait to download this! keep makin the kewl editers please :)

eeey...
this sounds really great...
can't wait to try it :D

I tried this out. It installed, then in an error couldn't find ijl.dll during execution and crashed windows. I restarted, copied ijl*.dll to its folder, and ran it again. The program doesn't start. Are there any suggestions? (I installed to the default directory.)

Does the Launch Wizard or the Editor itself crash?
Make sure that in any case you have the following files in that directory: game.dll, ijl15.dll, storm.dll, Mss32.dll, war3.mpq, war3patch.mpq
Please tell also which Windows version you are using?

heya just tried it..
it looks pretty cool...
but then i changed sounds on a paladin to lich... and place a paladin and a start location on the map... and tested map..
and it couldnt save cuz it comes with 9xx errors :(

WCXE doesn't support cracked version, perhaps that might be the reason...

perhaps it doesnt?

i have legal version

I liked it until I started making triggers. Once you try to enable the trigger, it pops up a screen, and wow your program counts 978 errors in a script that contains only 1 line! Thats a lot of errors.. and the script is flawless, theres no error in it. So Ive uninstalled your editor and maybe one day Ill use it once you remove the dang annoying debugger.

These errors are not rooted in the making of the editor. Currently some people report that they have them, others don't. I have made several test and never got these errors. Please make sure you've the files "war3.mpq", "war3patch.mpq", "ijl15.dll", "storm.dll", "game.dll" and "Mss32.dll" in your WCXE folder.
As soon as I get to know the reason for this strange behaviour I'll post it here.

The Editor itself stalls while loading. All the files listed above are in the directory. Windows XP. Hope to get it working when possible.

i cant download the german version...

There were some changes for the download lately, so it could be that you tried, while they were made. Please try again now, it should work.

I have found out the reason for the compile error now. As I only patched my German War3 version I developed the English on the base of 1.00! If you've a later version you get these errors. I have made a patch now and also the installation file will be updated. Both files should be online soon. Sry, if anybody felt attacked by my statement that it's not working with cracked versions. You can get the same errors in that situation and I just found out the other reason randomly.

General Mengsk... plz fix this bug!!

if i just place a unit and a start location and test map it comes with 9xx errors :(

(btw. i have just reinstalled warcraft 3.. and i have legal version...)
*EDIT*
oh... i c there was a patch...
now it seems to work :D

btw. unit sound doesnt work :o

I have that same problem
