World Editor - Where Can I Get

[best_player]

I would like to have the advenced version of world editor freely, is that possiable?

I have warcraft 3 frozen throne normal editor I want better one

 

[Chaos Overlord]

Better? You may mean something that has moer features but is definately not better. WEU is probably what you are thinking about but I am not sure if it is on Hives database. I am positive its on wc3c though so you can go there. It lets you make 16 tiles per tilest and unlimited doodads but its got lots of faults too so... not really better, but different.

You have a few options. First get MiscData. It can be found here.
This is pretty much a must for terrain.

Next you can get NewGenWE. I don't really understand how to use it myself.

Last you can get WEU which is awesome IMO. It opens up a lot of new features. It has been reported to corrupt maps. I personally have not had a problem.

Actually, WEU and JASS New Gen can work together. JASS New Gen is only needed if you intend to use JASS, mind you...

 

[Gilles]

That is true Earth-Fury. I didn't say you couldn't though. You can use all three together. Isn't NewGen the only special WE out there?

 

[Dil999]

NewGen works fine with most other editors. WEU, for example, works with JassNewGen if you put the WEU files in the jassnewgen subfile. I dont think it really matters much though- the way this guy is typing it doesn't look like hes going to be doing jass at any time at all.

 

[Gilles]

Haha you're probably right. It's odd no one has made a special WE yet.

 

[wd40bomber7]

There is a completely different stand-alone editor, made by Zepir.I can't quite remember. Its not really anything amazing, but I'll see if I can dig it up.

I don't suggest this tool, but if you want to use it, its there.

 

[PurplePoot]

It's not for the same things, as far as I know it can do some stuff that the normal WE can't do, wd40bomber7.

Also, it was made before the WE was available ;o

"JASS" which means? I dont know what is this word

is that a program? where can I learn how to use it? or download it?

 

[Kwaliti]

JASS is the programming language WC3 uses. More advanced than the ordinary GUI triggers.

 

[Gilles]

If you don't know what JASS is, you can't begin to use it. It takes a while to learn. I never have, but I would think it would take roughly a month?!?

 

[Dr Super Good]

JASS new gen is the only editor I can recommend.

WEU sucks, it is buggy, can break your map and unefficent. Use it at your own risk.

JASS takes 1-2 weeks to learn if you know basic programming of languages like C or python.

 

[SFilip]

> I would think it would take roughly a month?!?
About half an hour to learn the syntax. Maybe slightly longer if you have no programming experience.
What exactly do you think the current editor lacks?

 

[Violat3r]

I personally like WEU but as people have said it can cause problems, one time in particular my computer crashed while i was in the middle of a map and when i restarted, WEU had corrupted it on the crash, thank god i had a backup lol. Lesson #1 with map-making: MAKE BACKUPS ALL THE TIME, you never know when something is gonna go south. lol

That depends if you're addicted 24/7 and are willing to read the whole thing or not xP.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Uhh actually, it depends if people actually find usefull hints on it and have good examples on hand.

Jass program

Where can I download the Jass program?

 

[HappyTauren]

www.gwegle.com <- you an download anything jass related there.

 

[Wraithwynd]

I too use WEU - I do not use the Advanced Triggers beyond point-remove point. I do use the ability to add up to 16 tiles, the no limits and other bells and whistles which allow terraining to go to greater lengths.

As far as I'm concerned it is a useful tool for doing things for the terrain and using doodads. Triggering should be done in the Regular Editor (the one that comes with the game) for your basic GUI functions. Jass is a horse of a different color - I think that you would find the other jass based programs out there to be more helpful than using the Advanced Features of WEU which can "break maps".

If you are looking for Terraining package there is the Ultimate Terraining Map: All of the pathing has been removed from the models, everything you can think of has been imported and assigned a model in the object editor. It is a great resource that you can use to improve your map.

Of course you do not use all of the models, so you take what you need for your maps (and give credit where due).

 

[best_player]

I'm on using google for hours, yet cant find where to download it.
Please link me privatly.

[best_player]

Thanks for the link. I thought that "jazz" is a program which can be downloaded after some research I discover that there is no such program. Thanks anyway.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Do not use WEU, we will not take responsability for any damage that tool does to your map which it commonly does.

Rather use the JASS new gen editor which is more reliable and has all the good features of WEU.

 

[Need_O2]

I think he asks for a editor that makes custom spells like in dota
There is no such thing you create spells with triggers making a map is not easy as you tought

 

[AmadiTheGreat]

WEU which is awesome IMO. It opens up a lot of new features. It has been reported to corrupt maps. I personally have not had a problem.

It sometimes corrupts your maps, but that's not the highest proplem, it also tends to import completely stupid stuff to your maps, such as functions it doesn't actually use anywhere. Optimizer weu has helps a bit, but it does not remove it all.

Also, sometimes WEU functions cause proplems when compiling a map sometimes, which royally sucks.

However, not to say it's bad or anything, but it has it's proplems, so it's not perfect either.

 

[HappyTauren]

jassnewgen is pretty much perfect.
