Guest	reinstall warcraft 3, delete anything tat was from the main directory as well the directory itself. There was a mayor warning not to run it from the main directory in the readme.txt

KrEmAyTu91	wtf the readme.txt only reads: Just put the "comdlg.ocx and richtx.ocx" files in your "c:\Windows\System\" Directory and there you have it! and i copied and pasted that too.. it said nothing about that.. stupid program

KrEmAyTu91	Well.. now that it is fixed.. can someone tell me how to use it EXACTLY so I dont screw up on it this time?!

weaaddar	Run it from any other directory (Like your Mpq2k directory) and it should be fine The Compilation in the download section IS NOT THE REPACK that I hosted but someones elses my REPACK had a readme with atleast 3 times saying Not in your war3 directory.

KrEmAyTu91	What do I put for: "Destination Location" ?

KrEmAyTu91	Bumping it back.. this is pretty damn rediculous.. I dont know how to use it and no one is even bothering to tell me..

CBWhiz	K heres how you do it - PUT IT ANYWHERE EXCEPT IN WC# DIRECTORY specificly, make sure war3map.wtg doesnt end up in the wc3 directory. Thats the protection, and if it goes there map editoer reads it instead of the OK ones in the maps.

Berry2K	Why don't people distribute the right bloody readme.txt? Location of MPQ2K: where you have mpq2k installed (came with the protector) Location of map: where the map you want protected is Destination Location: where you want to output the protected version of your map.

KrEmAyTu91	Destination Location: where you want to output the protected version of your map. Where would that be? Do you have a suggestion as to where i should put it? Do I just chose ANY random file and my map will be protected?
