Can't Play My Map

[wolfybecker]

I was using WEU so i could make a 480x480 map, and when i went to test map, it just opened frozen throne, not the map, so i go through custom games, and find my map, and there are no players (Player 1 Undead Red etc...) so i hit play game, and the chains and menu goes up and comes crashing down, how do i fix this, do i have to start over? any help is appreciated

Post the map. I won't be able to view it but someone else can.

Umm if you have triggers in it, some of them may be causing it or it could be your current patch that isn't complying with your program to make the map 480x480

Is this the first time your testing it? If so make sure reinventing the craft is turned off, that made it so I couldn't test my map ^^

I think one of your triggers is 1.24e incapable... or if you have some JASS triggers and you coded them yourself you might done something else, It happened to me, made a JASS trigger that didn't report errors but made the map incapable...

i dont use jass (not the best at map making lol) but whats reinventing the craft?

 

[Ironside]

It's a function in Jass New Gen Pack. This function makes the map not work...
It's in the toolbar in the Gen Pack, disable it.

Does WEU use jass, if not then i'm not using anything jass related

WEU screws up everything. The problem is you're using WEU and it's a very outdated program that doesn't even register Hashtables. I know the tutorials on this site point to WEU but those are also incredibly outdated tutorials.

@ Anyone: does NewGen support this map size?

 

[Levdragon]

Woops I thought it was NEWgen not WEU xD, yes it supports 480x480, it can have more then the normal tile sets and you can also pick if you can build on, walk on, or fly over terrain [i.e its pretty awesome ;P] use Newgen cause its basicly WEU, with more features and it doesnt stuff up ^^.

WEU is an outdated program as mentioned above, so you MUST avoid to use it in your maps.Use Newgen, it has almost as much as WEU can offer you, without the risk to ruin your map.

WEU messes around with your map triggers as well as it adds some functions that are not supported by the newest patches.

I got some weird errors with it, like i couldn't even open my map to edit it again cause the functions inside it didn't existed.

If you have any back-ups of your map you're lucky, if not then...better start re-making the map.

The only thing you can do to help yourself with the map is to force open it and delete all of its triggers.

NewGen has a feature that allows you to integrate WEU scripts, although I don't know if they're properly synched.
