1.24's effect on Maps and Spells

Do not want cJass. If I recall correctly it's obscure, complicated and only used by the Russians.

what the heck is cJAss ?

Well, it's another type of Jass, we usually work with vJass, but there are other versions... vJass is the best among them however.

Will v1.24 be released in the whole world at the same time ? What is if for example people form USA have the new version of wc3 before the people in europe do ? It would be kind of the staff if they wait until everyone has acces the new version, elseway this will cause a lot of problems since THW is an international website.

That's why this is running for two weeks after the official patch release, not two weeks from that post.

oh great =(. the only GUI MUI Great Way I know is with indexes. Time to "DE"volve back to using mass unit groups T_T

No. Hashtables are entering GUI in 1.24. Also, you can still use proper indexing systems, just not lame ones.

Yes, and also you can use handles as a type in variables. I have tried it, looks nice, but maps may not work due to JASS fixes (one of them is the return bug). DotA doesn't work currently, but I'm sure IceFrog is on the move to resolve that.

You can get it from Westfall (though I wouldn't say its officially released), but if you still want to play DotA and some of the popular maps I had kept myself a copy of version 1.23 just in case when I needed them; for now I'm confused how to convert to any type without causing a return bug as such.

Cjass is good for users who know C++ and sometimes allow to do better code than vJass.

But... vJass much more older and have more usability.

* 1.24-incompatible spells will not be acceptable.

How do I know if my spell is 1.24 incompatible? Will there be specific features rendering many spells incompatible in 1.24? There haven't even been released any 1.24 patch notes, how do you know things will be different with 1.24?

Thanathos · 07-04-2009, 08:14 PM

@Marsmallos
simply update your WC3 version to v1.24 and test the spell.
if the spell works everthing is fine, if not you have to fix

Beyond the obvious route--testing them in 1.24, check out this page.
