Level Info data missing or invalid????

[jxtranghero]

I suddenly encounter this after I save my files and open it again
Please help how to fix this because i didn't back up my files...

If ur using JNGP and have not disabled the auto-back ups, then you will have backups on the JNGP folder...

Usually this is a sign of map corruption. I think I had it happen to me when my computer crashed while I was saving the map.

Navigate to your warcraft III folder and look under: "Warcraft III/Maps/Test". Warcraft III automatically copies the most recent map you tested in the editor into this folder, so hopefully it has a working backup of it. If so, open it in the editor and make a backup of it!

Otherwise, if you are using JassNewGenPack, check the jassnewgenpack/backups/ folder (as Adiktuz said).

If not, you should attach the map here and see if anyone can salvage anything from it. Sadly, if it comes down to this case, you'll usually have to restart the map from scratch.

EDT:

Sadly, you'll have to start from your very last backup, or restart from scratch since JNPG or the Test backups aren't there anymore.

If not, you should attach the map here and see if anyone can salvage anything from it. Sadly, if it comes down to this case, you'll usually have to restart the map from scratch.

well you can try to open it up on an mpq browser and see if you can salvage things...

BTW: if it all happened after importing something, it might be a good idea to try to remove that/those resource/s using the mpq browser and try if you can now open the map on WE

MPQ Browser??? wats dat ?
please......

where can i find that tools???

 

[Adiktuz]

there are some mpq browsers here in the tools section... I'm not sure how you'd do it, but try to open the map using the mpq browser then see if you can find the imported materials and delete them

 

[GreeN!X]

Tools section. Link at the very top of the site. the best one is named MPQmaster AFAIR.

 

[jxtranghero]

lt's too late even MPQMaster can't load the file map...
thx for help
maybe i should start it all over again... T_T

 

[Dr Super Good]

Try using MPQEdit it is the best MPQ editor out there by far (and is open source).

If you still cannot open it then yeh, its gone forever. Unless you use Windows 7 and the drive has shadow copies enabled on that volume in which case just right click and say restore to a previous version on the map.

If you are starting new you may want to look into StarCraft II. It can do a lot of stuff WC3 cannot and is not that hard to mod once you are used to it.
