[General] Copying multiple doodades

[Peacegetter]

yo

Is it somehow possible to copy multiple doodads at once, including their object IDs? Since I want to import structures build out of custom doodads into another map i got the problem that if i copy and paste every doodad from one object editor into another, the IDs are not identical so I would have to build everything again.

Thanks

I think newgen saves the IDs

You can use NewGenPack JASS Editor to edit IDs, also copy objects with their saved ID as 'Stan' said

You can use 'Import Object editor data' but use that at the beginning then continue copying units and abilities ... etc

and how do I do that? If I right-click on the doodad there is just the normal copy function, which doesent keep the ID if I paste it onto another map. Also if I click export files from the old map and then import the objects-directory the doodads do not show up.

Importing Object data from a map to a map surely works and this is certain

If not, change the tap in Object Editor to Doodads tap, then export and import to your map

I think JNGP 2.0 has the ability to change IDs. Yet, if there is no solution , you would re-create the whole doodads :/ I don't find a suitable solution

Okay, I used the standart export-import fuction for doodads, but as soon as I actually copy and paste the landscape it gives me an error and JNGP crashes. BUT if I copy it into the map without importing the doodad settings before it doesen't crash, the objects are only visible as green boxes through, since there is no ID for them.

Is there any way to fix this? I allready checked, all IDs do get copied right so it must be something else. All needed textures/models are allready imported so it can't be that either.

What do you mean by copying 'Landscapes' ?

 

[stan0033]

Terrain can be copied. If you want to copy landscape you have to extract the doodads and terrain and put in the other map with MPQ editor also.

Terrain and doodads together, while copying terrain works out fine pasting doodads causes crashing.
