MPQDraft SEMPQs Question

First, In case you dont have it or I have an old version, this is the MPQDraft I'm using now: http://campaigncreations.org/starcra...ft20021217.zip

Anyway, I read some reports about SEMPQs not working with W3 if the directory the end user has W3 in is not the same as the patch creator's (me). Does that still apply to this version? If so how can I fix it? Thanks.

That problem does not apply to that version.

Currently the only known bug with that version is that if you run War3 with an SEMPQ and the CD isn't in the drive, after you put the CD in the drive, it will say the patch failed. You would then have to run the SEMPQ again to get it to start War3 properly. (the same thing happens with Diablo II in that version)

Thanks! Since you say "that version," is there a newer one I should know about?

None with that bug fixed, at least. I'm assuming the "that" was in there due to that it isn't a release ver.

If you don't have the CD in the drive, it does stupid things. Put the CD in the drive.

I do have it in the drive, ie world edit STARTS and loads up, but no changes are applied.

Aah... I heard of that happening a few times... what OS are you on?

Windows 2000 Pro SP3 - When I compile the SEMPQ, the same effect happens on someone else's computer (OS unknown).

I've tried both with / without redirect SFileOpenEx, without sucess.
