I read the tutorial for spell edition and i decided to try soemthing basic like change Blizz's mana cost to 50 instead of 75. I changed it, put AbilityData and The map I wanted the spell change in, in TechMPQ into my tech folder, and then opened it up. I put the Ability data in the first slot, the map name in the second, what do I put in the third. It says put AbillityData.slk there and i did but it didnt change anything:( How do I get my change to work? THX |

Try Units\AbilityData.slk. And if that doesnt work, just put Units\. No periods at the end. Ive never used techmpq, since winmpq is much better in my opinion. |

Never would of thought of it but it works now. Just one question, Why do I have to put Units\ in front of it? |

Because thats the way it was in the mpq. The game reads it, but its name has to be a duplicate of what it was in the mpq. Read my "just saying what i know" post up in the important things up there, since it gives some insight into these kinda things (even though that thing is really old.) EDIT: nvm, some asshole erased it. That pisses me off, since it was the first implementing guide on these forums, pre-dating kerry's by a few months. |
