[General] Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos units in TFT World Editor

[KnowItAllDM]

I've always been a fan of the Catapult unit, though I find that since it's been replaced by the Demolisher. If anyone knows where I can find the original Orc Catapult unit, or knows the stats (including the art values), I'd really appreciate the help.

go onto the unit in model editor and under model file there is model file - extra versions and change it to Reign of Chaos

Thanks, but I've got the model. What I need is the stats and all, such as the following:
Art-Animation-Walk Speed
and
Art-Projectile Launch(X,Y, and Z)
etc.

i imagine they would be pretty similar to the demolisher ones, especially the run/walk speed. however u should be able to find them out by
(1) uninstalling warcraft all together, install RoC and open editor and see.
(2) asking someone who only has RoC on hive.
(3) go onto b.net on RoC and find someone friendly enough to spare u a min. failing the above....
(4) just guess, they are pretty much the same unit

Thanks, That's what I figured I'd have to do, but I just eyeballed it via trial and error. Seems to work fine now.

Hi,

This topic recently got indexed by Google (not sure why just now), so I thought I'd add some relevant information:

A much simpler approach to getting a RoC-only editor is temporarily renaming
C:\Program Files\Warcraft III\War3x.mpq
to something different. (eg.: War3x.mpq.bak or _War3x.mpq)

Then only the RoC editor will load, with all the RoC data.

Export the catapult, close the editor, undo the rename operation, open the now TFT editor, and import your catapult data.

(Or just take a screenshot of the RoC editor and copy the Catapult values manually. Sounds much simpler.)

p.s.: I discovered this trick while making 3ICE's Maze Designer RoC-compatible.

Awesome that's exactly what i wanted. Thanks a bunch.
