Hey today going on the 2nd week ive been working on this map now. some of you know that i made this map with WEU and I yes I as in ME and ME ONLY made this map from SCRATCH from nothing. a 1 week project... may have been obliterated. I dont know how its unexplainable to me. ok this is what happend i am done with the last versions bugs and fixes yea yea and so i save the map and test it. it worked P-E-R-F-E-C-T-L-Y. but the custommusic was overraiding the space so i decided to use mids instead. so i looked on the documention for WEU to see how to do that. well i didnt find what i was looking for instead i found a tutorial on how to save your heroes with a password. im thinking cool i can make my own game accounts for my map so i did what the tutorial said tested the game and as soon as the map started BAM it ended calling the teams in the highscores "map-stealer" imthinking ok that is EXTREAMLY wiered beyond my imagining. im thinking i better delete those last triggers cuze it aint woking. so i did i deleted the new tirggers and tested the map to see if it was still doing that. it was. im thinking oh no... what the heck happend?! i always said that if you dont understand it DONT MESS WITH IT~ could this be a price i pay for meddling with knowledge i can not comprehend??????? NO! it cant be! there must be away out of this! my weekly long project nearly 10 hours a day spent making this map is at risk! if i do not get help ill never get to see my dream and most greatest creation be played by others INCLUDING ME!!! I MADE THIS MAP!!! WHY IS IT CALLIMG ME A MAP STEALER??? PLZ HELP! ![]() |

sounds... disturbing, didnt you save a backup? what exactly happend when u deletd "those last triggers"? |

those last triggers where the triggers that started this the triggers that saved the heroes the triggers that did not exsist when the map was working fine and the same thing happend the those last triggers were deleted as the thing that happend when those last triggers where created. i think i have a .bak file of the game leme check it out. and what happend was what i said hapend the game ends at the start and the teams are called map stealer IF you do not believe me i can send you the map and you can see for yourself |

I tried to load it and it does the same damn thing i can load all of myother maps except this one and you know what the funny thing is?? i did NOT make the .bak file it must have been created when this happend fortunatly i am able to open it with weu still but why not with wc3? beats the F*** outa me. i THINK it might have stored a global variable or some type of data that is caujsing this when i made those triggers. the triggers are: Advanced - Customize the hero savesystem to Ignore Owning Player Name and every other function related maybe that trigger implemented somthing in the map that thinks for some reason the map is being stolen MAYBE i dont know but it might be but how to remove that data???? i have no clue and if this project is a failure: i may never make anoher project with warcraft III EVER again! and i know it means nothing toyou but it means somthing dear to me. i really need help with this! |

if all else fails you could copy the terrain, copy the units and doodads etc and export all unit data, then start on a new map, all youd really need to redo would be triggers have u check the player settings and change the map tester name (lil tip mate the mods dont look kindly on double posting, but im sure theyll let u off the 1st time) |

what do you mean double post? i thought thats when you post the same thing twice sorry. and what do you mean change the map tester name? |

ok this is what it says: difficulty normal player profile worldedit unchecked use fixed random seeds copied map file Maps\Test\WorldEditTestMap is this corect?? EDIT I fixed it i just had to rename it... then that means somthing EXTERNAL is causing the problem... i think its because the data that was stored for the hero passwords were placed somwhere within the game thus trying to load the game with the heroes without the password thus accsess denied... still very strange. |
