[General] Import Manager Question

[xorkatoss]

im sure that all of you know that when you import smth in your map it adds that annoying "war3mapImported\"

my question is: can i disable that?

thnx in advance to anybody that helps me and +rep!!

Yes you can, there should be a checkbox below the filepath (once you double-clicked the file you want to change) that says Use Custom Filepath. Once that has been checked and depending on if its a model, skin, or texture, it can be changed accordingly.

Models = ModelName.mdx or .mdl
Skins = Units\Critters\VillagerMan1\VillagerMale1.blp (NOTE: This varies depending on what unit you are changing!)
Textures = ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\TextureName.blp or for the disabled version (should be two textures per texture import) ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtonsDisabled\TextureName.blp

I don't think that was the question, 13oot-Me.

But I fear you can't disable/change the default path easily : it's hardcoded in worldedit.exe (it's not even a WESTRING, which are defined in text files).

I just tested : you can replace the "war3mapImported\" by something shorter than it in worldedit.exe (use 00 to end the string but don't change the absolute adress of the other strings by deleting/adding bytes). It didn't seem to bug but I guess it's an other .exe file if you use the JNGP.

Of course, you have to be very carefull when you edit .exe files and only do it with an hexa-editor.

Hmm, I think you must backup you original exe and replace it with this. It will not add war3mapimported before the file name

Oh.. haha sorry, I completely thought that's what you were asking >.<
