Why custom cliffs no longer work?

[SpasMaster]

Will the ability to modify tileset be implemented back eventually? Currently the JNGP extension does not work and this does not have it.

Will the ability to modify tileset be implemented back eventually? Currently the JNGP extension does not work and this does not have it.

If it doesn't work for JNGP then it isn't likely to make it back any time soon. The people who made the tool are gone and no one knows how it worked.

Why custom cliffs no longer work?

Because UMSWE/WEU is outdated and doesn't work with anything newer than 1.21. Working on transferring the important parts in a better way that doesn't need so frequent updates.

 

[MindWorX]

@Trigger.edge the terrain stuff should be fixed now. Let me know if there are other features UMSWE/WEU features missing.

 

[BexoDust]

Can confirm that TESH is working now. Thanks for the update!

 

[SuShinoa]

My WEX is crashing whenever I try to launch it :/
WEX run as admin and my Worldedit is set to be runned as admin too
I link the log if it can be of any help :/

Looks like you're missing the Fasm.NET.dll (which is weird since it's included with the zip folder).

Can you check if you have it in your Sharpcraft root folder?

If you don't, try to download it again, or get the dll from here (Fasm.NET - Stable (binaries)).

(Trying to give some help while MindWorX doens't show up)

 

[SuShinoa]

Actually I got it in the folder

 

[MindWorX]

Make sure you use a fresh folder and aren't just unzipping into your old folder. If that doesn't fix it, please zip it up and send it to me.

 

[MindWorX]

Updated with -window and -opengl launch settings in the extended settings menu. Enjoy!

Would it be possible to change destructible flags from within editor without having to hex edit? Every placed destructible has a default flag of 02, they are defined in war3map.doo file inside map.

*flags:
0= invisible and non-solid tree
1= visible but non-solid tree
2= normal tree (visible and solid)

You can find more information here.
You could do the same as you did with object id window, when you select a destructible or a group of them and double click to go to doodad properties it would show extra options to set the flags of selected destructibles.


Zepirs Map Editor already did this but it's not convenient and lacks GUI elements.
Zépir's War3 Map Editor 1.0

Risc's Colorizer FINAL (Updated)

 

[MindWorX]

...

This is a very tough order, that requires a lot of reverse engineering, among it, figuring out how objects are stored in memory, how to detect what is selected and more. Not impossible, but not easy. It might be better to request the functionality from Blizzard.

...

Risc's Colorizer will probably make it into WEX soon. There is some controversy because it has disruptive features, so it'll likely be included, but disabled by default.

Impossible just read and replace data in map mpq archive after map save ?

That's a much easier task, but not what A Void is asking for. He wants to make it work with the actual selected items in the editor.

Huh, reverse engineering? Destructibles are defined and created from war3map.doo file, every time map is saved it generates a new war3map.doo. You just have to generate a new war3map.doo file with the appropriate flags.

You should take a look how Zepir did it in Zépir's War3 Map Editor 1.0. The source code is public and you can take a look, it's inside the package.

That's a much easier task, but not what A Void is asking for. He wants to make it work with the actual selected items in the editor.

Even that would be helpful.

 

[MindWorX]

There's a world of a difference between the file formats and how they're stored in memory. It's nowhere near a 1:1 relationship. At best we could load the .doo files when the maps loads but you wouldn't have anything new you add to the map. You'd need to reload every time. And you still couldn't select the doodads in the editor without a lot more work. As I said, not impossible, but far from easy.

And you still couldn't select the doodads in the editor without a lot more work. As I said, not impossible, but far from easy.

Or you can create an additional menu button (at the top bar) that will open destructible flag options, you select your flag and click done then the war3map.doo will be overwritten with appropriate flags replaced. Initial flags are 02 so replace 02 with *flag value*. Of course you will need to do this every time you place a new destructible as they will have the initial value.

The manual way of doing this is by opening .doo with a Hex Editor and replacing all values 02 to *flag*.

 

[MindWorX]

And you will need to reload the map every time you've made any changes since the tool only works by what it knows from when the map was opened. Not sure it's an improvement over just having a separate tool for the job.

You don't have any mapping of reverse engineering values from the memory and values to control? I know it may be few, but it would help to map things and experiment with new features along the way to work with the application running time.

 

[Trigger.edge]

Yep, works fine.

But other features are still missing:

• Custom editor categories
• Tile pathability editor
• Tile set editor

Also, if I want to add my own plugins, how would I do it?

Custom editor categories can be added easily. I just haven't done so since I didn't know anyone who used them.
Tile Pathability editor and Tile Set editor can only be added if they still work with JNGP and 1.28.2, but from reports I've gotten this doesn't seem to be the case. If you can confirm it still works in 1.28.2 with JNGP I can give it a look.
As far as your own plugins go, all you need to do is reference SharpCraft.Framework.dll and MindWorX.War3Editor.dll. I'll see if I can't get a sample up on the repo along with the source code for all the other plugins.

Try and run the "SharpCraft.TroubleShooter.exe" once, and then try again. If that doesn't work, can you tell me what operating sytem you are using?

Hi there, i cant make it run... i run it as administrator, then i choose place where worldeditor is. But then nothing happens. It never runs...

Getting an "Unrecognized PJASS (syntax)" error (just when jasshelper fires) during saving.
Also can't test maps due to missing map data (everything is setup to run as admin, the game is not installed in program files)

 

[MindWorX]

I'm not sure what's going on then. The logs you are showing aren't giving any indication that you ever actually run it. It doesn't show that any profiles are being launched.

This has been reported by some users, not sure what's causing it. You can try and run the "SharpCraft.TroubleShooter.exe" once, and then try again. If that doesn't help, then I need the latest logs.

Make sure you check the known issues section on the post. It explains how to fix that.

 

[charlygon]

i run "SharpCraft.TroubleShooter.exe" and then tried again "World Editor Extended.exe". Same result.

Logs atacched.

 

[Chaosy]

Uhh, the buttons scaled super small on my monitor.
(Object editor, trigger editor etc)

img

Clearly not meant for 4k monitor

You removed the object editor lag the old JNGP had for me which is a huge + though.

edit: I also dislike the front used for jass.

edi2: seems to apply with the UI overall

Remember this is on a 4k monitor so divide the image size by 4 and you will get what I am seeing.

 

[KILLCIDE]

I also dislike the front used for jass.

Lol thats what the config options are for.

 

[TriggerHappy]

Uhh, the buttons scaled super small on my monitor.

As far as I know, that happens on the vanilla editor as well. Does it for you?

Last I remember on my 1440p screen it had the same issue.

 

[Chaosy]

Dunno it wasn't like that on the old newgen.

Just some updated known issues.

 

[Rufus]

• Make sure you have .NET 4.6.1 and Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4 (get the version for x86).
  
• If launching WEX doesn't do anything, try and right-click and hit "Run as administrator". This is affected by the settings of your worldedit.exe compatibility preferences.
• If you get the infamous "Cannot load map data." error, open up your Documents\Warcraft III\Maps and delete the folder named "Test" and try again.

I have the Visual C++ and .NET thingys (although a more updated version of .NET).
I've run it as an admin.
Last problem I ahve not encountered.

...but it doesn't open up still. :/
I've tried the launcher and just clicking the Icon.


Any ideas on what I may be doing wrong?

 

[MindWorX]

...

And made sure you have the x86 version of the VC++ Redist? The x64 ones aren't enough. If so, please send me the latest logs.

 

[Rufus]

Yes, that was it. Sorry for not Reading more carefully. :/

Awesome job! I'm excited to try this out.

 

[MindWorX]

Awesome job! I'm excited to try this out.

That's awesome! I'm just glad it works. So far it seems all problems have been solved. Hopefully I can make the troubleshooter I have made check for both issues which should make it very easy for people to debug on their own.

 

[A]mun]

Yeah the Visual C++ redist packs fixed the maptesting for me too.

 

[Kaijyuu]

Wanted to try this out, and am getting a crash when trying to load. Logs attached.

The windows error claims it has something to do with War3EditorExtendedSettings and a System.InvalidCastException.

 

[MindWorX]

I'm not seeing any errors in the logs, can you show me a screenshot or something of the error?

 

[btdonald]

I cant run WEX, although I config everything true.

Nothing happens when I run WEX.

Follow the steps in the Known Issues section.

Follow the steps in the Known Issues section.

Still cant run! The first time I ran it, all compiles were error. I try to import RegisterPlayerUnitEvent and save it but It disabled all of my code. Then I used JNGP, everything is okay. The next time I ran it, nothing happened. I try to follow the steps in the Known Issues section but I failed.

 

[torrific]

works like a charm, thank you

 

[Zombieslayer008]

Cool, I'll start using this on the maps i spend months on but never post.

 

[RG00]

Is this tool going to add more GUI triggers?

 

[stan0033]

Another idea:

Man, I don't know if it's already inside but it is a good idea to make function that, when you are creating new object in object editor to check if already is another object with the same ID and, dispkay an error! Conflicting IDs are pain in the ass, especially if you don't know where are they!
