MPQ editing or how?

[NiddHogg-kun]

Well i actually got an idea today. Is there a way to make a new MPQ for Warcraft 3 and add there some music? Well... So if you download that MPQ you will hear the music ingame but if you dont you will not hear it. It will make my project really better.

yes, look up "Mywarcraftstudio" in google. it lets you make mpqs

Then make a trigger that works like this

Events:
Initalization
Conditions:
Actions:
Play "Path of music from sound editor.mp3"

It has to be .mp3 though, .wav would work too but its alot bigger

Hope this answered your question

MPQmaster works too, its on warcraft 3 campaigns i think
i use that ocne to modify my map's files, you can replace the files in the MPQ.

Doesn't that = NoB.Net4U?

didnt undestand you revellion...

well thx ^^

anyway one more quastion.
I created new MPQ. Added 1 file music(name is Hunter.mp3)
what to do now? I saved my MPQ as MusicMPQ.

I dont think it possible. Not in multiplayer

its kinda complicated, now that i think about it. there's no string to sound trigger so you'll have to make dew with this

open the mpq archive in wc3 called "War3.mpq" and then take a sound that your not using <in this case probably music> and copy its filepath
I'm going to use "Doom.mp3" for mine

The path is "Sound\Music\mp3music\Doom.mp3"
And make a folder for each of the \'s in your own mpq
Name the file the same that your going to replace
And now go to Sound manager = Select Music\Internal\Doom.mp3 <its the Doom.mp3 that counts>
And click ---<Use As Music>---

Now go to Trigger Editor
Create new trigger

it should look like this when your done

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Sound - Play Doom <gen>

This should work, i dont really have the time to make a new mpq, but tell me if it doesn't work, if it doesn't i've wasted alot of time, and its impossible
