How to [download | install | configure] JNGP

[RuneSo]

every time i use the newgen we.exe i have to say in which path my wc3 is installed.
but no matter what i do it says: could not locate warcraft.
what is the problem?

 

[Malhorne]

Try running the we.bat file.
And put your jngp folder inside the same folder that contains the folder warcraft 3 :
- C:/JNGP
- C:/Warcraft 3

 

[Daffa]

I Recommend JNGP 2.0.6
It has built in path detect.

 

[Malhorne]

Yep
But you can also rip off or create you own lua file ^^
Oh nvm if you're having bad times installing it better choose the 2.0.X

Hello,
I noticed in JNGP 2.0.7, when there is an error in my vJASS code and I try to save, it freezes. When I kill the JASSHelper process, the editor unfreezes. When I use version 2.0.6, it works fine. Just me experiencing this?

Hey Anarchon,

The jasshelper feature seems to be bugged for me. Whenever I get a jass error, my editor becomes unresponsive and stays locked at this window. I have to kill the jasshelper task and then relaunch jasshelper manually to see the error. Any idea what's going on?

Edit by Purge:

Note: You can avoid a lot of stress just by downloading from this link instead:
https://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/tools-560/jassnewgenpack-5d-227445/

Please check out the troubleshooting section before downloading. Make sure your antivirus is configured so that you will have a proper download and patch your Warcraft 3 to 1.26.

Actual tutorial:


For the 100th time this year I have to tell a guy how to probably download, install and configure JNGP In order to make it work. So I wrote this short tutorial to not have to answer it every time again and again.

• 
  
  
  • Requirements
  • Download
  • Install
  • Update JASSHelper
  • Configure
  • Using
  • Settings
  • Misc

Requirements​

• 
  
  
  • Windows or windows emulator
  • Latest Version of Warcraft III.

Download​

Open this url, download the JNGP file.
Alternative: JNGP 5d with JassHelper 0.A.2.B.

Install​

Extract it anywhere you want.

Update JASSHelper​

Open this url, download the JassHelper file.
Extract the content.
CnP this three files:

• 
  
  
  • clijasshelper.exe
  • jasshelper.conf
  • jasshelper.exe

, go to the JassNewGenPack folder, open it, and copy it into the subfolder "jasshelper" and click yes to overwrite.

Configure​

Open JNGP. (For that, you need to open "NewGen WE.exe"
If your antivir program does block something, set it to the exception list! This is not a virus, even if it may seem like it for antivirus!

Check the menu. Click on Reinventing the Craft, check the box "Disable RtC".
Close the JNGP instantly.

Open JNGP again, now you can use it with vJASS support.

Using​

To open the map, simply open it in the menu or with CTRL + O.
To save the map, please use Menu - Save (CTRL + S).
To save the map under a new name, press save as and then press save (CTRL + S) again!

If you edit your map (anything, while this can be scrolling in the trigger editor aswell) you can NOT play the map!
You have to save it again with CTRL + S in order to testplay it!

Settings​

Please make sure the settings of your JNGP match the following:
View attachment 76936
View attachment 76937
View attachment 76938
When saving for real version please uncheck "Debug Mode" in JassHelper menu.

Misc​

Grimoire

[X] Start War3 with -window
If enabled opens Warcraft III in a window when testplaying maps.
This does NOT change the normal Wc3 startup.

[ ] Start War3 with -opengl
If you enable this you will use OpenGL (GraphicFormat).
This is only useful when you know what you do.

[X] Enable TESH
Like a theme manager.

[X] Enable Colorizer
If you want to choose your own colors for coding, you can
enable it here.

[ ] Enable No limits
Removes the World Editor limits.
For example the 8000 doodad limit will be removed and you
will be able to place more doodads!

[X] Enable object editor hack
Allows you to put in field values that are normally not valid
for the WE.

[X] Disable default description nag
If you go save a map in normal WE and you haven't changed name from "Just anther warcraf 3 map" Then a dialog pops up, letting you know that you haven't.
This disables/enables that dialog.
Thanks to Cweener for this answer.

[X] Don't let WE disable triggers.
When your trigger has one or more invalid actions WorldEditor normally
disables it. You can prevent the WE from doing so here.

[X] Always allow trigger enable.
Same for above, but this time you are able to enable it.

[X] Mute Editor Sounds
You can mute the sounds here. I find it more annoying to
have sounds in the world editor. Listen to music instead.

[X] Disable First Save Warning
The WE pops up a little annoying message that you are saving the
map for the first time. You can disable it here.

this is the only functioning download link : JassHelper 0.A.2.B - A vJass and Zinc 2 Jass compiler - Wc3C.net , but in that site none released the password to open the compressed pack , do you know that password ?

I copied everything into the jasshelper subfolder but still says "Could not redirect CreateFileA"
"Couldn't start World Editor. An instance of World Editor may already be running.
If running a patch prior to 1.21b make sure the Warcraft III CD is in your device and try again.
If you are using Kaspersky Antivirus, turn it off before running NewGen."
I am currently using Avast Free Antivirus and I did not get a malware or virus notice when I downloaded JNGP, is there anyway to turn off Avast if it is blocking the files?

 

[Frotty]

JNGP is no longer working with 1.28+ and this Thread should probably be closed.

You can use Wurstpack (which requires a Java 8 install) that is basically an enhanced JNPG with all features. It will create a duplicate wc3 install that works for the old tools.

or SharpCraft & WEX which has less features but should run properly with most configs.

thank man

JNGP does not support anymore because vanilla World Editor in 1.30+ has been improved to include all things that JNGP had (JassHelper).
Although this thread should be closed as it was obsolete, you can use JNGP Lua Edition (this involves installing both Warcraft 3 1.26 and 1.31). This should work as of now:
JNGP Lua Edition

 

[Dark-Zalor]

it seems that JNPG doesn't launch in windows 10. Is it normal?
If it doesn't work, how to user every tilesets?

This thread is obsolete (should be closed) nowadays because Warcraft 3 1.28+ doesn't support JNGP anymore.
Furthermore, latest version of Warcraft 3 now has a lot of things that JNGP had already them before (such as JassHelper).
