[Trigger] Game Caches, perfect?

[HungaryMaster (Magyar)]

Hello everyone (Goood Neeews! heh.) I tried to figure out why the game cache did not work between the first and the second map. I came to ask you about it.

Hey. You should have a look at this tutorial, it explains everything about game cache.
From what I've seen in your triggers, here is what you should do:

• Don't put spaces in your game cache name ("Chapter One - Cpth01.w3v" -> "ChapterOne" would suffice)
• The trigger Game Cache - Reload all game cache data from disk is not required, AFAIK

I think that's all. Tell me if it's still not working!

But, the trigger comment (with gray) said: at the "The label" and at the "Category" must not have any spaces, that means the map name too? And how can i "rename" my maps in a campaign? Do not say i have to restart the whole campaign.

Don't worry, you won't have to restart the whole campaign
In the trigger Game Cache - Create a game cache from XX.w3v, you don't have to put your map name. You can write whatever you want, like ChapterOne.w3v for example.

I don't think it's possible to rename maps in campaigns, at least not via WE. I think you can export your map, rename it, then import it again (but it's a bit tedious). I don't know if there is another way. Perhaps by manipulating the .mpq file? But anyway, you won't need to edit the name. Just do as I said and you should be fine, like this:

• Outro
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters Region 030 <gen>
  • Conditions
    • ((Triggering unit) is A Hero Equal TRUE
  • Actions
    • ...
    • Game Cache - Create a game cache from LightOfDawn.w3v
    • Game Cache - Store Joseph the Faithful 0010 <gen> as JosephMap1 of JosephMap1 in (Last created game cache)
    • Game Cache - Save (Last created game cache)
    • ...

And in next map:

• Game Cache
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Game Cache - Create a game cache from LightOfDawn.w3v
    • Game Cache - Restore JosephMap1 of JosephMap1 from (Last created game cache) for Player 5 (Yellow) at (Center of Region 009 <gen>) facing (Position of Halahk <gen>)
    • Set JosephFromMap01 = (Last restored unit)

This should do the trick.

Still not working.

 

[HungaryMaster (Magyar)]

I try what you write but still does not working, but why? I have 2 other campaigns i do game caches before and i try them with it, but still...

 

[Sieben]

Can you post your triggers?

 

[HungaryMaster (Magyar)]

First Map:

Second Map:

 

[HungaryMaster (Magyar)]

Yeah, paint-rush forever

 

[HungaryMaster (Magyar)]

Wait, you think about my other cp-s?

 

[HungaryMaster (Magyar)]

I tried many times, and finally working! Credits gived.

 

[Sieben]

No, just the non-working ones
I noticed in triggers that you use the cache actions twice: one in "Outro" trigger and one in "OutroSkip" trigger. Did you change both triggers?

Edit: Oh, didn't see you got it all worked out. Glad I could help

 

[HungaryMaster (Magyar)]

Yeah.
