hero selection system problem

I wanted to throw together a very basic hero arena for a friend of mine and remembered the fantastic system you created.
I didnt touch the editor for a couple of years and first werent very sure if i did everything right. But i now believe i did everything right, even tried it on a backup and the editor still gives me like 200 compile errors and here i am now and im stumped and asking for help.
I can attach the map if you like and im sorry if i am not very specific but the editor isnt either.

if backup still gives errors then it is an external error that isn't related to selection system

so do i have to remake the map entirely?

edit: that makes me a sad panda
edit2: send

Well I don't know exactly what the problem is so I can't answer that question, but most likely the answer is NO.

maybe send it to me by email? You can see my email by looking at my profile

got the map, and I get no errors when saving the map? I even enabled the selection system trigger and was able to save the map.

anything that could explain this?

Maybe you don't have latest war3 patch? Also are you using a crack for world editor?

No i got the latest patch and i am using the original editor.

edit: anyway maybe sending me back the saved map. i have no other idea :(
edit2: ok i found some WEIRD shit here. im saving with all that errors then just start the map an everything works flawlessly.
edit3: I isolated the problem, i think..
Here:
function hss_Message takes integer i returns string
return GetAbilityEffectById(hss_ChooseHeroSpellId(),EFFECT_TYPE_SPECIAL,i)
endfunction

GetAbilityEffectById seems to be unknown and putting it as a comment(dunno whats that really called in english) resolves most of the errors. I didnt even find that function anywhere in c.j or b.j. Mabye im kust stupid. Its late here. Good night and thank you nonetheless.

edit4: screw that. i dont know HOW but i saved the map with a new name. Copied it over again and now it works without any errors. Thanks for being so patient and helpful. my friend really likes your system. Cu in a couple years if you are still around here.

GetAbilityEffectById is a function that came with one of the patches
