[General] Force Save

[Aeroblyctos]

Hey.

I was wondering if it's possible to do "auto-save" function?

I see some functions like "save and load" and "save and change level" but no just "save".

Rep for the helpers.

native SaveGame takes string saveFileName returns nothing
native LoadGame takes string saveFileName, boolean doScoreScreen returns nothing

these are what you need. In GUI I also couldn't find save function.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

What about custom script?

 

[Geries]

• Custom script: call SaveGame( "blablaname" )
• Custom script: call LoadGame( "blablaname" , false )

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Hmm.

This is not working. You might know why?

 

[Geries]

Hmm it seems it saves, just it puts save file into War3\Saves\Profile\War3CustomSaves\WorldEditTestMap\

I don't think that warcraft have an usable save possibility then :/

Does that jass script work at least?

 

[Geries]

Hmm it seems it saves, just it puts save file into War3\Saves\Profile\War3CustomSaves\WorldEditTestMap\

Yes, it works, but not too useful.

If it works I want it. Can someone here create for me a function where I can easily auto-save game? I know nothing about JASS and I use everywhere GUI so... Maybe a trigger that runs a JASS script which is really simple so that a fool like me can understand it.

I really want this save-load. It will be very useful. I'll use it for The Chosen Ones campaign.

BUMP!

What I'm asking here is very simple:

I would like you to create a test map with two triggers: one GUI and one JASS. The GUI triggers runs the JASS trigger, that simple saves the game. I simply have no experience with JASS and it is the only way to save the game(Blizzard Menu Save / Load function), according to geries.

So please, can someone do this?

EDIT: Okay I got it to work. Thanks to Offgraphic!
