Sry fo dissapointing u but this questions is asked so many times xD. U cannot, u must copy it one by one, or u can copy them all in same time with exporting object data, but that will desrroy all other things.

 

[andreasaspenberg]

can someone do it for me then.

You can do it with the JNGP.

First, export your unit datas (File -> Export unit datas). It will create a file with .w3u extension.
Then open your other map and put this vJass line somewhere in the script :

//! external ObjectMerger i <File path>

And replace <File path> by the .w3u file path ("C:\UnitDatas.w3u" for example).
Then save your map, close it and reopen it and it should be done.

If you have problems with external call, check up your jasshelper.conf file (it's inside the "jassnewgenpack5d\jasshelper" directory) and put those lines :

[externaltools]
"ObjectMerger","C:\Program Files\jassnewgenpack5d\grimex\ObjectMerger.exe"

i dont want to risk being sued by blizzard for using a third party program. i would prefer if it was done the right way. blizzard seem to be working on a patch at the moment and that could completely prevent vjass from working.(i have found a test server on battle.net.) my pc is a bit slow at the moment so switching between maps takes a while. is there a way to access the exported things by importing them into the import manager.

Yeah, sure, Blizzard's gonna prevent us from using vJass, it will be totally easy and usefull for them.

Sorry but I don't believe that one second .
