NPC player name

[puffdragon]

Am trying to change NPC player name on loading screen throught the war3map.j but it pops us as Player ( 3 ) etc. Ingame it has the correct name...

If i try to change the name through the worldeditor the map just dont load!

Anyone know how i can change it?

What you change exactly so the map breaks? Can you attach it?

nvm got it fixed, i changed the user to human on editor and made the NPC in war3map.j

Well damn... I thought I had resolved till I reimported my wts file... it seems there is information in the wts file about the name of the players on the loading screen... Anyone know how I can find this hidden strings in wts?

(there are Player 1, Player 2, Player 3 etc but editing them seems to have no effect, unlikely editing almost everything else which works fine). Does wts display information in other files outside war3map.j ? and is there a way to edit those files?

Why you need .j file even? Here is basicly everything you can know about these files also about wts, good luck W3M and W3X Files Format.
No other files are responsible I believe.

Well it seems its in the w3i file but... the strings when i read it with hex editor refers to wts strings that i already edited! >.< so annoying. The wierdest part is if i edit the wts file of the players, and fill the empty slots with computer (insane, easy etc) it displays the edited name. when i go in war3map.j and set the players to MAP_CONTROLLER_NONE or MAP_CONTROLLER_COMPUTER shit hits the fan. :/

nope, if w3i refers to wts make sure to re-load wc3 in order to re-hash map's wts. there's nothing like "hidden" value
