Rexxar Campagin map transition dont work

[Souxwolf]

Hello,
i am currently working on a edited Warcraft 3 Reforged Rexxar Campaign with the goal to restore the normal difficulty and exchanging the Human models with Kul Tiran ones.

Using this guide everything works fine already except for transition from and to other maps like the different missions in the chapter. It seems that the heoes doesn´t spawn at all and i have no clue how to set that right.

Can anybody help me with that?

The heroes not being restored sounds like the game cache is not working correctly (probably empty). Try changing the game cache reference name consistently across all maps. The reference name used by the campaign might be protected to limit people's ability to corrupt or cheat in the campaign.

Thanks for the suggestion. I double checked that, but that didn´t solve the problem. I dont think the issue is to get the game cache to up and running.

The issue is here, that when transit to an other map in the same chapter, the heroes doesn´t spawn at all at map initialization.

I wonder, which trigger is responsible for that.

The heroes are "restored" from the game cache. If the hero data is missing inside the game cache, or is not compatible with the current map, then they will fail to be restored and so no hero will be created.

Game Cache works differently on campaigns with map transition, it's more than just saving heroes and restoring them in the next level. I don't have Reforged so I cannot tell exactly what is wrong with your code, but based on the guide you're following, it looks like you are trying to change the game cache name. Now, I don't know if the triggers are exactly the same in Reforged and older versions of the game but if they are then you should be able to edit the game cache in the Transitions Common folder under Export All and Import All. You may also have to change ZoneMapPath to refer to the path where you created the campaigns folder inside retail folder.

FYI, Level Data is used to store heroes and load them on a seperate level (E.g: from Act 1 to Act 2) It has nothing to do with Map Transition.

Thanks, i figured that out and the transition works now, BUT if i am transit the heroes back to the main Map, the entire chapter begins from anew.

So i can transit to an other map, but not back.

That is why the Rexar campaign loads a save of the map when you "exited" it rather than starting the map. The map is only started the first time you visited an area, with every visit after than being a save game being loaded.

 

[Souxwolf]

So then it would be not possible to get the transition to work properly?

If the save loading functionality does not work then it will not be possible to imitate the map. As your maps are modified from the standard maps you will probably need a modified copy of all the maps in the campaign using unique save names not to conflict with the Blizzard campaign.
