Mass Unit Changes

Hi,

I need to remove Show Attack UI 1 and 2 from all units in my map. I don't want to do this one at a time. What can I do? Is there a solution involving putting a file somewhere?

There's no program as you need it I believe, I once saw a program which did some general changes like hp/dmg to up to 10(?) units but that's all I know...

I don't need a program, I can use Excel or whatever, just need some quick instructions about what file to mess w/ and where to put it.

There are serveral ways for doing it then, if you dont use custom units you could probably extract the unit .slk files out of the main files(mpqs) and import them into your map, but I think that wuld be more work than just changing it for every unit...

UnitWeapons.slk is 770k so can't put changed version into map (is multiplayer map).

I can change the default w/ that file, but it doesn't get saved into the map normally b/c war3 only saves info about units it thinks is custom.

Anyone know a workaround?

Changing it on units one by one would be 2 fields * say 300 (every last creep, summon, creep's summon, peasant, etc) units = 600 changes. ugh.
