[General] MiscData.txt (Steep Cliffs) And Patch 1.30

[Reesespieces]

So, I've been away from Warcraft III for a while, but recently got some free time and wanted to take another swing at it.

From what I've seen, we've moved from mpq to CASC. Which seems to be the cause of the problem.

In short, I tried downloading MiscData.txt, and throwing it in a newly created folder titled UI. It changed nothing, and I was still dealing with slopes when using the "Raise Terrain" and "Plateau" Tools.

I tried Googling the answer, and saw someone suggest tossing the UI folder in a War3.mpq folder. I didn't have a folder titled that (And after looking around, I didn't have any mpqs, either). I tried making one simply so I could get the file path right, but that did nothing as well.

So given this, how exactly do I get the MiscData.txt file to work? Barring that, is there any way to get steep cliffs in this new patch?

It still works. Are you sure you are placing it in the right folder?
Warcraft III\war3.mpq\UI\MiscData.txt

Note the "war3.mpq" must be named exactly, including period.

I'm pretty sure I had the period before, but I did name it "War3.mpq" so that might've been it. Regardless, just copying and pasting what you wrote worked. Thanks!
