Game Interface Values stay Default

[Gilded Touch]

Everytime i change the values in the Game Interface, they remain the same when i play the map. Any1 know why?

Which values are you changing?

I don't actually know why, but this has happened to me, and you can try importing the files and changing the pathing name of the import to match that of the image you want in Game Interface, thus replacing that image.

Which values are you changing?

The values being changed are string/text values.
the images can be overwritten, but the text can never change.

Perhaps you imported a file such as war3mapMisc.txt or war3mapSkin.txt?
Those textfiles override the values you set in the editor.

I can only agree with apocalypse. Most certainly it was because imported an item for example and then set the path for it, overwriting some basic paths.

yes i do have a war3mapSkin.txt file.(it caused fatal errors when used incorrectly)
can i rewrite the code for the text using the imported file, or what other solution can i take?

also, what other complications can come from this file being in my map?

im curious about this too. I made a map, and 1 year later when trying to work on it again (after recently discovering it) it wouldn't keep any of the variable i set...

EVERYTHING you can do in Game Interface, you can do with the text-file ( + a lot more).
So I always use that text-file instead of the Game Interface.

The best option is to extract the war3mapSkin.txt from your map and add the values you want.
If you don't know how to do it, I made a complete list of it a while back, I'll attach it to this post.

I cannot see any errors in it. Might be, because i'm relatively new to this file, but it might also be, because you did a good job (hopefully, it's the second )
