Replacing the war3map.j file doesn't works

[BloodDrunk]

as the title says, I extracted the .j file from my map with WinMPQ, edited it and then added back the edited file, but for some reason the new one isn't even added and even better, the old one wasn't even deleted.
So.. How do I do this properly?

Please quick respond..

Use the import manager and set the path to one that mirrors the path in the mpq. If there are any syntax errors, your map will crash.

How the hell did you even find this thread..
I never managed to get that to work, and I really didn't need it, it was just an experiment I was trying before realizing everybody would need the modified mpq to see the changes.

It should work fine with MPQEdit, especially a half-recent version. May require that the map have a (listfile) for all the files.
