Thank you 1.24

[FrIkY]

Hello, I have a problem with my map, Pandaren RPG. Before I get to the problem part, I have to tell you something really funny... I've been using the 1.21 version of Wc3 the whole time... I know, funny. So I guess that also makes my map being version 1.21 map, I don't know... so the problem is, I can't test my map ingame using 1.23 or 1.24. Why? I don't know.

But what exactly happens is, while I'm inside WE, and I press the "Test Map" button, loading screen shows up and it starts loading. It loads, around 50% and then it just crashes, without an error message, warning or else...

Linaze, Debode and I have tried to see what could be the source of the problem. It's not the imports, it's not the triggers, it's not the object editor... is there any possible way that I can convert my map so it becoms playable with 1.24? If you know what could be the problem, I can send you the map.

EDIT: Something I forgot to mention. Right now I have two versions of Wc3, one is 1.21 and other one is 1.24. With 1.21 I can test it, with 1.24 I can't.

SOLVED

Why don't you just copy everything from the map, and onto a new map?

its easy to copy the triggers and paste to another map, but it will take time to copy the units/abilities/buffs etc..

You know, the strangest thing just happened... after seeing ragingspeedhorn's post I though "damn... that's going to be hard". So I create a new map, name it "panda", set the size to 256x256, save and exit WE. Then I open WE again, opened "Pandaren RPG" map and I first tried to copy one ability. I copy it, open map "panda" again, when I tried to paste it, BOOM!! All the abilities, doodads, units, destructibles and items from Pandaren RPG have been transfered, except they were all missing names, icons and tooltips. :/

What the hell?!

(The bigger problem are imports... lots of models and icons... -_-')

In the object editor, click File and then Export all object data. Then simply import it into the new map.

I wouldn't do that.

The import/export feature in World Editor is bugged, specifically if you imported sound objects.

No it isn't, at least not for object or trigger data.

Friky, there's a big chance it's in either the object editor data or the triggers. I already told you I removed all custom object data and it worked.

 

[FrIkY]

Problem solved! Linaze suggested that the problem might be with the "Unknown" abilities, which turned out to be correct. There were a few Unknows with units, and most of them at the items. When I deleted the abilities, I forgot to remove them from their users. I guess I won't be needing a new map, but thank you all for your help, debode and Linaze especially!

A pleasure, good luck with the further development of your project. It seems neat.

Patch 1.24 suck!

That's funny. This happens on a map that I liked to play... but it died after a patch.
