Searched the forum but couldn't find anything. Does anyone know how to edit the icon and tooltip for the build buttons? To be specific, I want to edit the undead "Summon Building" button art and text. EDIT: ARG wrong forum, please shoot me. After that, please shift this over to general dev :( |

Actually, i found the icon path, but find me the tooltip text. |

I think it's part of the 'AUbu' ability, which happens to be hidden in the Object Editor... |

I believe that you can open the AbilityData.slk and find the build sbility. Here, you should be able to change a field called, "Viewable in Editor" or something like it to 1. You then have to place the modified .slk file into a specially named folder on your Warcraft III folder. Unfortuantely, I can not remember the name for the folder, but if you can find that out, you can then edit the ability in the WE. As requested, moved to General Development |

The name of the folder would be "Units". |

I attached my own AbilityData.slk file, it already has all abilities enabled in editor, btw by using it you slow down the loading time of Object Editor the first time you open it, but this doesn't effect the loading time of the map. |

Thanks renegade, thing is I like using WEU and I can't find the .slk that WEU patches into the WE (using MPQdraft) on run. Maybe WEU doesn't have an abilitydata.slk |

Unless World Editor Unlimited adds anything to the ability data, then using this SLK file shouldn't do anyhting. I would try the file and if something isn't working right, then just delete it. |
