How to import Abilities withour replacing?

[stimmedmarine]

Im using Jass Editor, is there a way to import abilities from 1 warcraft map to another without replacing the abilities ?

What do you mean?

I thought JASS could be copied paste in the first place? o.0

Do you already have custom skills on the map? If so I believe it's not possible >.<


Else, first export object data, then export trigger data, then open new map import object data first then import trigger datas.

but then i will still replace the object data already in the map... i want to keep the abilites i already have in my current map as they are, while importing new spells.

I know it is possible to single copy anything, but arent there a way where i can copy more than 1 ability at a time ? Then i was thinking maybe Jass could enable me to do that ?

Object merger from JNGP

 

[stimmedmarine]

[rysnt11]

Jass new gen pack
Search the forums around here, i forgot where they put the jngp

and how do i use the Jass new gen pack inside Jass editor ?

You could also just change the object ID raw data before importing them, this way they will not be overwritten but treated as new objects.


EDIT: never mind, I didn't fully read the topic, my apologies... Using JNGP would be the only option for merging the object data together.
(I figured that it doesn't overwrite anyways but automatically does this, lol I must have a bad day today. Please completely ignore me.)

and how do i use the Jass new gen pack inside Jass editor ?

Why not copy and paste the code? Create it in Jass editor and paste it in JNGP?

 

[stimmedmarine]

is there a guide somewhere, showing how to import abilities from 1 map to another with jass ?

Copy and Paste?

 

[stimmedmarine]

it would take a very very long time to copy and paste each ability's and buffs/effects...

I have tried to use that Merge Object Editor Data button, but im not sure im doing it the right way... Do someone has a guide, or can tell how to use the Merge Object button in Jass, im totaly new at this.

 

[stimmedmarine]

unless you got a more effective way to copy and paste than i know... as im aware copy paste for me is: open 1 map copy the spell and then paste into a new opened map... and thats what takes time...

 

[stimmedmarine]

still havent fixed this problem, any solutions ?

Are you talking about that what I see in object editor? If do so use just ctrl+c, ctrl+v. It works between maps. For triggers it works for full directors, but for objects I think its not. Its like my problem with language. I just have to translate all manualy. Sorry.

 

[stimmedmarine]

but then i can only copy 1 thingy at a time... that will take a long time

 

[MajorKaza]

yep. But you can import and export categories, like units, items, skills, buff, etc.

 

[stimmedmarine]

yes but my problem is that i want to add an Spell Pack to my current abilities... And when i do that i have to overrite the current ones.... Is there a way to merge abilities ?

 

[maddeem]

No there is no way to mass copy object editor data. If you had started when you first posted this you would have been done by now.

 

[Adiktuz]

DONT MULTIPOST please...

and yes, you need to do it one by one on the OE... using object merger could ruin it since it will overwrite the old data with the new one so if you have two objects with the same rawcode, ur doomed...

that's why newer vJASS spells which is heavy on object data uses lua scripts to automate the object generation for you...

 

[stimmedmarine]

is there a way where i can copy and paste the spells without having to open and close the maps everytime ?

 

[Adiktuz]

open them all, then go to Window> choose the map there to switch active maps...

 

[stimmedmarine]

ok thanks alot, why did no one tell me this ?

 

[Adiktuz]

then once ur finished, just close the other maps...
