Using color to emphasize the Goal, Good, Bad, and Request for skim-readers.
Armed with the knowledge that the newest update to Warcraft III has been known to break modeling/editing tools, I decided to install two copies - one with the update - and one I can model/edit from.
Big mistakes were made that day
Around three hours later, I found that doing so from Battle.net is a surefire way to overwrite your original copy, who knew?
"Fine" I thought. I'll just inject the old MPQs so MdlVis and Magos' Model Editor will work again!
Nah.
Every time Warcraft 3's Battlenet gets an update, it removes my MPQs.
If that weren't enough, near as I can tell the World Editor no longer uses the data in the MPQs for it's map variables.
This means, I cannot use sharp slopes anymore - a massive problem for me and my project.
Have any new methods been developed to allow for sharp slopes again?
