Fixed Race doesn't work

This sounds like a simple question, but I have searched and couldn't find an answer.

In the race/team/colour selection screen, I want players to be unable to choose their race - all players must be Human.


I have set the player properties' races all to 'Human' instead of 'selectable'.
I don't have 'fixed player properties' set for a very good reason:
I don't want custom forces. Players should be able to choose their Team as they see fit.
How do I force players to be Human without using custom forces?

I know this is possible but I can't figure out how to make it so.


EDIT: Actually, it seems that there may actually be a different problem with my map.
After playing around for some time, I have a very bizarre situation:
In the race/team/colour select screen each player is now on a separate force.
But in World Editor, the custom forces checkbox is NOT ticked.
Now my players can't even choose alliances!
I can't turn custom forces off!
HELP! :(


EDIT2: Saving the map as a new file fixed the problem of custom forces, but the original problem is still present.
It seems to me that there is a major bug with either World Editor or WarCraft 3/The Frozen Throne.

Does anyone have any ideas?

No ideas?

You'll have to do alliances using triggers. Have some triggers where if a player types -Ally 1, they get an alliance with that player, and so on.

But I have had it working previously - players were automatically human with no choice of anything else. It was only in recent testing that the situation has changed - yet I haven't changed the player settings from what was working.

What settings should they be to achieve what I want?
Then I can make sure they're correct and, assuming that they already are, there must be some kind of bug or other interference - something I hope someone here can advise me on. Has not anyone encountered such a problem before?

So nobody has ever tried to set a fixed player race without fixed teams?

tried yes....succeded no.
