Jass NewGen Pack [Official]

[TheFireMage]

@ravellani Just replace the code in the file findpath.lua with the following and the program will work:

print "Grimoire 1.5 5/4/2008"

-- This should be the path to your WC3 directory that contains the game MPQs
path = "C:\\Users\\Tuyen\\Desktop\\iccup_war3_en"

-- This should be the path to the latest Warcraft III.exe
testmap_exe = "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Warcraft III\\x86\\Warcraft III.exe"

You can use Notepad++ for painless editing. FYI, you will need access to the old mpqs.
This thread contains the 1.26 game files, which includes the old mpqs.

I did not see those in findpath.lua
Is there another file that holds the path?

How does it compare against The Jass NewGen Pack (JNGP) 2.0?

Sad that Rally marked it as substandard, citing that WEX is better in all respects. WEX didn't work for me, this thing did. Nice tool, good job!

Excellent classic tool

I report a bug: @MindWorX
1. Grimex (Object Merger) does not work when creating/modifying items.
e.g. createobject("kpin", "I000") does not work properly. Actually, the item 'I000' is not created.

I installed this new program and couldn't start it, so I uninstalled everything and reinstalled basic jass, and it worked.

What exactly the problem you encounter? And how it solved?

As of now, JNGP (both 1.5 and 2.0) and WEX (Sharpcraft) are unsupported and outdated. The current version of vanilla WE comes with some features from JNGP/WEX if I'm not mistaken.

Additionally, a registry trick is required if you want to use both JNGP/WEX and vanilla WE (the Reforged ones).

I actually installed it as the manual said, but it simply wouldn’t run; I clicked and it didn’t start. Then I did some research and found out that I needed to install Java. To be honest, I am very new to programming, so don’t take this result as conclusive.

Should be the already known false positive, because Newgen modifies executables of wc3.

Btw, this resource is quite outdated by now. There are these now:

Thread 'YDWE PK (World Editor)'

Oct 23, 2023

I present to you the best map editor for WC3

Allows make map in 1.26 or Reforged mode, but only if you have never saved your map in the Reforged Editor before.
Regardless of whether you make a map with features from Reforged or not, you must have Warcraft 1.26 or 1.27. This is required for YDWE to work.
You can use my pure Warcraft 3 1.26 from Eurobattle

Compatibility of maps created in YDWE PK: 1.26 - Reforged same as JNGP
Supported languages: JASS, vJASS, Zinc (no cJass)...

Always great to see new tools for the worldeditor. Nice job.

If you are using Kaspersky AV, you have to disable it completely as mentioned in the ReadMe file. Otherwise, just add the entire NewGen folder to the exclusion with your preferred AV.

Btw, this resource is quite outdated by now.

Mapmakers nowadays use the standard World Editor from the latest Reforged patch since it comes with numerous features that's only available in JNGP like JassHelper and vJass, given the fact JNGP and WEX were intended for older patches.

Also, I believe the latest build of HiveWE (0.9) is only compatible with the latest Reforged patch. The older builds still work with pre-Reforged patches.
