WTF???????

array?

 

[The_Silent]

I've found an odd quirk I'm not sure whether is caused by this or if it is just a wc3 bug. Whenever I open a map that I used to work I get coding hierarchical errors when I try to save it again:
I think it is literally linked to when when functions are declared and the positions of triggers in the map. When opening a map it probably reorders the hierarchy to read the code in the order of the triggers (top down), while when saving it order code by when the trigger was created and ignores top-down order. Forces me to move triggers around in weird ways to make everything work properly each time I create a new trigger.

You should use libraries to ensure order of functions.

 

[The_Silent]

I put all functions that is relevant to particular systems in the same "triggers". It is when outside functions need to access the systems I get issues, or when one system needs functionality from another system. Does libraries deal with that?

 

[psxlover]

Yes

library second requires first
function ...
call asd()
endfunction
endlibrary

library first
function asd ...
endfunction
endlibrary

 

[The_Silent]

Ah, makes a lot of sense using inheritance like that to force the hierarchy to take a certain shape. Thanks

 

[GhostWolf]

Code in general is ideally all parsed in one pass from start to end. That's why in most languages, if some code B uses code A, A must be placed before B.

 

[lll_Kirito_lll]

But earlier in the usual JNGP I quietly used a similar array in the structures. Thanks to this, I did most of the abilities, where it is necessary to work with several objects.

 

[Zordrak]

Does the doodad limit deactivation work in the newest version? I will test.

 

[Zordrak]

Ok, i tested it, the limits are deactivated.

 

[Barade]

The launcher or CLILauncher crashes for me on Windows 7. I've installed the two required packages.

What's the CLI Launcher? I also have Windows7 and had no crashes with the editor.

 

[Barade]

Well, I start "World Editor Extended.exe" and it says SharpCraft.CLILauncher doesn't work anymore. The SharpCraft.Launcher.exe works (btw. there is no Apply button when creating a new profile) but starting the editor crashes here too.
I run the launcher and World Editor Extended.exe as admin.

edit:
Besides, I button for configuring the standard profiles would be cool if one deletes an entry by mistake or wants to reconfigure the profiles from the registry entries.

 

[MindWorX]

If you have issues, you need to give me the logs.

 

[Klein]

After open the program, it tries to open WC3 in a infinity loop and I keep getting "Warcraft III is already running" dialog.

 

[psxlover]

Are you sure you picked the right executables?

 

[Klein]

I followed the instructions.

 

[psxlover]

When you first run it, it told you to pick an .exe depending on your version. Are you sure that you picked the one for your warcraft version and not the other one?

 

[Klein]

Yes, sure... I tried to run the launcher. The game itself runs ok, but the world editor does not. When it should open the world editor with sharpcraft it just keep opening the game.

 

[MindWorX]

@Klein, can you zip up your entire SharpCraft folder and send it to me in a pastebin?

Thank you both for the help, but I'll use JNGP which has SharpCraft.

 

[psxlover]

JNGP? What version of warcraft are you running?

 

[Pr0nogo]

Encountered a pretty serious issue during profile setup. After selecting World Editor.exe and war3.exe, an infinite loop of 'Warcraft III failed to initialize' messages popped up and prevented me from clicking anything else. Multiple instances of War3 also started. I had to restart my computer to regain control. Not sure what else I can offer for the bug report, so let me know if there's anything else I can tell you.

There should be a "logs" folder you can upload so @MindWorX can see what the issue is.

 

[Pr0nogo]

Looks like I might have deleted it, but if I encounter the issue again I'll look for that and post it.

 

[Gismo359]

Will you be adding Cohadar's jasshelper alongside Vexorians? If not, is there a way I can add it myself without removing Vexorians (kinda like the wehack.lua in JNGP)?

 

[BloodSoul]

Do you intend to fix the "Attach Function List" button any time soon?

 

[AGD]

Hoping to see a jass package manager plugin included soon. =D

 

[Boriss]

Is this editor working on newest w3 patch?

I haven't done that yet. Is there anything in particular you need since you want both?

I know @TriggerHappy have been talking about making something like that.

Is this editor working on newest w3 patch?

It works with the newest official patch, but not the newest PTR patch.

 

[Boriss]

It works with the newest official patch, but not the newest PTR patch.

I have w3 downloaded using blizzard downloader but I am unable to launch it. Clicking .launcher causes autocrash while launching w3 advanced editor directly asks me to find w3 editor.exe to just do nothing. Process starts but then nothing more happens.

 

[Gismo359]

I haven't done that yet. Is there anything in particular you need since you want both?

I just like the fast save times of Cohadar's but I want to have Vexorian's just in case, since I've read that Cohadar's can be buggy

Attach Function List button?

It's when the function list window from TESH is attached to the trigger editor window, though it hasnt been implemented in the new TESH yet, afaik

Hi, TESH related questions are best to be posted in the official TESH thread, since the attach button is a TESH feature.

To answer your question, the next patch will most likely implement this feature.

The question was asked by @BloodSoul, I was just clarifying

Right, my bad. Thanks for the clarification.

It's what happened to me.

 

[jintlox]

Who else went here trying to resolve the newgen WE problem?

 

[UmbraUnda]

Is there a way to add/replace terrain tiles like in NGWE?

 

[Adorm]

This is an awesome tool! All I currently needed it for was to implement the lift on the Doodad/Destructible limit and this has accomplished that seamlessly! On top of this, the Editor utilizes no installation-esque aspects unlike what I saw with previous tools years ago that injected code into the standard editor, this simply runs as an overlay in a sense, running as a separate program with the additional files - you can still utilize the original editor at will not an always modded one which is something I enjoy greatly. Alongside this, the only feature I'm hopeful becomes implemented soon is a way of lifting the Tile limit as mentioned in other comments - this would be fantastic given the lightweight style and immense value of this program - I really believe this is going to help usher in an age of easier modding as Warcraft 3 becomes revitalized in coming times!!! Great work 4.9/5!

 

[Cwoo]

i can't seem to get mine to work. When I run World Editor Extended.exe it does nothing but when I check my task manager its running but nothing is popping up. I tried running it as an administrator it did the same thing. I'm currently running world editor 1.28f.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

 

[Sverkerman]

Seems my sub went away, resubbing.

 

[Wrda]

I don't get this, could you at least have some instructions on where do we actually extract the folder to? whenever I launch the Warcraft 3 World Editor (WEX) it tells me "Profile not configured correctly." and adds that I need to configure the path of World Editor.exe, SharpCraft will also attempt automatically. When i do it, it processes, but nothing happens.

He can't help you if you don't post your logs.

Also, try running as administrator.

Is this dead? Still doesn't have some of the vital features of JNGP.

Can you list them? I can only implement a feature if I know it's missing. The most requested feature that's missing right now is the extended tile support, however, this messes with peoples WC3 installation, which is something I'm not interested in doing. So I've been looking for better ways to implement this.

Yes, extended tiles and.. colorizer..

Btw, how exactly does it mess with wc3 installation?

Zépir's War3 Map Editor 1.0 has extended tile feature without messing War3 installation. It also has hidden destructible flags editable from editor which you weren't sure how to do.

It's open source ,too.

For the colorizer you could always just grab one of the MANY colorizers available until decides to put down the time required to write a plugin for WEX to add the feature in. I don't personally see the need of it to be in WEX as a feature when there are so many tools that does just this on it's own and it isn't hard to write the colortags by yourself, if you don't have a photo editor you wanna use you can always just use a hex color lookup page which there is literally an abundance of.

I don't see them as necessary features to be honest :/ Extended Tiles would be the only one but it isn't hard to just download JNGP and add the tile to the map then open it back in WEX, sure you can't edit the tiles again in WEX but at least you'll have the tiles in the map, so pick wisely if you do that.

His editor also works directly in the files, which allows him to do more. But I was misremembering, it's the custom pathing features that messes with the installation which can cause issues if you forget to turn it off, which has happened with multiple users. Extended tileset will hopefully make it into WEX soon, but I'm one person, so things take time. The whole thing is open source though and I can easily help, so you're more than welcome to create the plugin yourself. Same goes for Colorizer which hasn't been a priority since there are tons of options for that already and the Colorizer that came with JNGP was horrible to work with.

I'd love to see a multiply game speed option similar to the AI Editor but can be used with non-melee maps.
