Transfering stuff from one map to another.

[Drain Pipe]

I've recently been struck with a dilema. It seems the base map that i;ve been working on is somehow corrupted so that whenever the terrain goes under 12, a giant black gash appears in the terrain. it is unremovable and poses some problems as a result.

Anyway, i want to transfer information from one map to another. I need to transfer unit data, triggers... almost everything except the terrain. Is there a way i can do this?

If not, can anyone explain the wired gash in the terrain then?

Re-extract and crush them into the new map using WinMPQ. Extract the war3map.j, .o, .u, and a couple others, and just jam them into your map using WinMPQ, and replace the stuff. I don't know exactly how to do it, because I use WMPQ to open protected maps

So ,Eusira, you may open all my maps ?

and what may you see there?

lol, i'm not quite sure that all protected maps can be opened, some proteected by obstrufication methods, or others, that simply removes those very files Eirsira, and as of now there is no way to unprotect them, so really only newbie protectros, would use other methods, if you protect your map, do it right. :roll:

Basically if they delete the listfile and scramble I can't use it. Usually I just do it for the bunch of models and music.

i know 2 types of protecting:

1 type is protector that removes imported files and units ..i saw at several forums that only few men may unprotect such kind of protection.

2 type (the easiest and i also use it because i have nothing interesting at my maps) It's the type , when use enter the password and broke the main link at startup of a map with his pass,so map couldn't be edited from the beginning...

i think there is a 3 type butt i don't know really...

But now it's an offtopic ..

So you have to export all the map data from your original MPQ. I think I can do that for you Pipe, but after that, the only problem for you will be reimporting skins
