Is it possible to convert from JASS to GUI? I've been looking at some maps which have all the triggers as JASS, and I don't know anything about any type of coding/script like that, and I would like to convert the triggers to GUI but can't using WE or WEU. Is there some sort of program that can do this for me, or a way of manually doing it? |

You can manually do it by: learning JASS. If that code has been written as JASS from the beginning then there cannot be a generic program that can convert all such code to GUI as Power of JASS > Power of GUI. |

I know that the power of JASS is greater than the power of GUI, but is there some way of converting all the possible JASS triggers back to GUI? Oh, and I tried learning JASS, but all the tutorials I've tried weren't newbie-friendly :( |

If the author of the map chooses to use Jass he had reasons for it. One of them is more possibilities, another one is that he wanted to keep noobs out. Each of these reasons have to be respected. |

It is possible to convert most jass to gui code, but making a program do it would be very difficult for a number of reasons. The #1 place you'll find jass triggers is in 'unprotected' protected maps, and generally part of the point is to make recreating GUI triggers difficult. If the person used jass because they wanted to, chances are the jass does things not possible by the gui so you can't convert it back. |

well, someone could make a a rpgram that would convert all jass functions that are in the gui into gui triggers and the rest into custom script function, right? it woul dbe difficult because youd have to make a jass-to-gui parser and learn the gui trigger format used by the editor, but if you had experiance in these sort of things it could be done. |
