World Editor Problem

[LISBOAH]

Hi,

I am currently making a Custom Campaign file, with Custom units, items and all of that. Before anyone ask, I am using the most recent version of Warcraft 3.

However, while trying to make my units have access to the custom upgrades I made or have said upgrades researchable on buildings, they don't appear on the Upgrade options, only the standard ones. The same can be said about the custom items I made, as they are not accessible for me.

Here is an example.

As seen here, I have made quite a number of custom undead upgrades.
However,

You can see that only the standard appear.

Custom units, abilities and buffs, they appear no problem, but upgrades and items no.

Can someone please explain why is this happening?
Thanks.

I think you need to open one of your campaign maps and the custom upgrades will then appear normally.

Ok, but then I have to go to every single campaign map in order to make my custom upgrades and items work?

Campaign has Object Editor in it, use that.

Ok, thanks.

So, what is the difference between using the Custom Data and the Object Editor?

Any edit you made to Campaign Editor's Object Editor will apply to ALL levels. Any edit done to a particular campaign map will only apply for that map.

Ah ok. So there was no need for me to make changes to the Custom Data? All I need is the Campaign's Object Editor then?

Yes. The campaign editor data (everything in that Custom Data tab for campaign) is attached to all maps in the campaign. So, once you put something in the campaign editor, all maps will automatically reflect the changes. You don't need to edit each maps' editor data to make these changes reflected to them.
