Custom Tilesets

[Zeatherann]

Digging around in the war3map.w3e file there is a spot near the top containing an integer (ranges from 1 to 16) followed by 1 to 16 terrain tile ids. This to my knowledge is the tileset of the map. However, changing the ids and making them have 16, for some reason fails and the map shows the old tileset.

Does anyone know anything about this?

There is solid information about the .w3e file here:

(Scroll down to the w3e section)

I don't have access to the w3e file right now, but I'm guessing you made a mistake either in editing or importing the w3e file.

I think this might help you: war3map.w3e


I dont know if this will be helpful or work but based on my minutes of researching, maybe changing tiles here is not anymore working. But you could try the link I have given you or either Purge's

Well if you want to have 16 tiles in your map just do it with Jass new gen pack.

But as what the asker said, he wants to make his custom tiles appeared exactly when World Editor starts. That means messing something on a file to do that but I will have to agree with you, I think its more easier doing that way.

I extremely dislike JNGP for reasons that are off topic. However, doesn't JNGP just edit the same file I am?

I didn't change the number of tiles that the map uses (which had 16 to begin with), but what really surprises me is that the map works just fine, opening/closing/playing, but just the tiles are unchanged. This makes me believe that the tileset is being defined elsewhere.

Maybe the info file? Anyone know?
