map doesnt show slots/players

[caleman]

before the game starts and you see the slots/set up the players, well with this map it doesnt show anything and when you start the game it doesnt work, what can be done?

by the way map can be opened with newjassgen world editor, its not protected

its better to use Pastebin here, on Hive, instead of external links

can't check it right now, but it's most likely a custom script/jass error when a variable name used is incorrect (for example, using variable A but it's a global variable, thus it should be udg_A).
it's happened to me a couple times before.

when you have free time, please check and try to fix it, then upload the map here, thank you for your time!

Please upload your file into Hive's pastebin so that it is trustworthy(mediafire nowadays houses viruses afaik)


IF it doesn't show any slots, team names, etc. Maybe your map is not playable for the current version

May i ask your current version of Warcraft 3?(You can check the version on the lower-right of Warcraft 3 when you start it)

my w3 is 1.26, the latest, thats not the problem, if the problem is jass related then i dont know how to fix it, im gonna need someone else to check it out, but lets say that for some reason the map can not be played by 1.26, how are we supposed to fix that?

There's no way Jass could be related. The only reason i know of is that if a map is not playable, the map was made in an old version of WE.

Take this as a example:
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/maps-564/heaven-2-2h-169924/?prev=search=heaven&d=list&r=20

Probably, It won't show the player slots and won't start.

huh. when i was editing one of my maps, i accidentally used a local variable instead of a global and when i tried to test it, it went to the main menu and i checked that the player slots wouldn't show.

I just opened the map and saved it:
1. The requires UMSWE, typically that aint very good.

2. The map has script errors.

3. Also, here is what I found in the map header:

// Map deprotected by X-deprotect (version 2006-10-02) by zibada
// [url]http://dimon.xgm.ru/xdep/[/url]
// Visit our modmaking community at [url]http://xgm.ru/[/url]

If you were trying to edit the map, you probably dont have permission to do it (judging by 3).
If you were just trying to play it, then download the original version.

Also, I'm pretty sure it is possible to cause such a problem with just code problems (mostly because of this)
