How do I add a cheatpack to my map?

This is more for testing or playing solo and wanting to spawn/edit/add certain things. I'm aware that most cheats are pretty simple to do, but I'm kinda lazy and don't wanna spend time making it. I do know there's a site that has a list of well known cheatpacks and their commands, but I won't post it just incase it goes against rule. 1 of the cheatpack is called JJ and that's the one I want to add. I remember trying to add it a while back but then my map kept crashing so I never got back to it. I would like to add it now or add something similar as it would improve the QOL for testing so much more

The only site that provides anything related to cheatpacks is Wc3Edit.net, if I remember. You might want to post any kind of questions/problems related to the map with the cheatpacks, but not from this site (as it might violates one of the forum's rule, which is maphacking). There's even a Discord server for this site.

Yes, you can use cheatpacks on certain maps (could be melee or custom), but not all of them might work because of different map scriptings (JASS or Lua).

Commonly, most cheatpacks can only be implemented on JASS-based maps, like classic JJ2197's or up-to-date nuzamacuxe/NZCP.

There's even a detailed instruction about installing cheatpacks, which can be found here. You probably need Ladik's MPQ Editor and JassCraft, although JassCraft doesn't seem to work on modern OS (like Windows 11) due to the DLL incompatibility.

Be very careful that maps with CP tend to crash often due to the some sort of memory hacks. Some of them might probably require modifying certain scripts in order to work because of anti-cheat system being implemented.
