Annoying Problem

Post by TieBreak »

Okay I've used Xdep to unprotect my OWN map because i lost my original file. Now firstly I think I've MPQ Master correctly.

Here an image: Image

Secondly when I used Xdep, when it is done unprotecting I couldn't find "deprotected.w3x" anywhere :? The map I tryed to unprotect is still called "YourMap". Where is the deprotected map at??? Where is it supposed to be? :?

Also I'm confused about what I should do when I have opened my map in MPQ Master. I still don't know why I even should open my map since it doesn't seem like I'm doing anything with it.

Check the .ini file inside the xdep folder - use notepad to view.

heres what mine has;

inmapfile = mymap.w3x
outmapfile = deprotected.w3x
clean_temp_onstart = 1
clean_temp_onsuccess = 0
clean_temp_onerror = 0
pause_onsuccess = 1
pause_onerror = 1
scan_enable = 1
scan_append_listfile = 1
halt_on_unknowns = 0
delete_als = 1
patch_w3i = 1
build_imp = 1
build_dummy_doo = 1
recover_script = 1
build_w3x = 1
rename_reserved_functions = 1
inline_functions = 1
rename_globals = 1
indent_script = 1
parse_w3data = 1
build_doo = 1

Example;
make sure you follow -> inmapfile = mymap.w3x
thus the map you want to unprotect should be named mymap.w3x.

and outmapfile = deprotected.w3x
thus the finished map would be deprotected.w3x and will appear in the same place as the mymap.w3x

hope this helps

The problem is that "deprotected.w3x." doesn't appear even though xdep states it has created one.


Okay I figured everything out except that all my custom items weren't saved. How do I get it back?
