Post subject: | [Q] How to replace multiple files in Protect MPQ archive |
Hi, I was working on this protect map about two months ago, and until now I don't know what kind of protection this map uses. Problems: - I can't replace more than one file on the MPQ (Example: file.mp3 and model.mdx or file1.mp3 and file2.mp3 etc). - I can't replace "war3map.j" more than two times even If I edit it or don't, after the third replace the map wont start/playable anymore "This map size It's too big". - I tried to rebuild the map were only 11 files was unknown and again after testing It on the game I was getting the same problem "This map size It's too big" - I tried to rebuild all bvo versions from 1.0 to 5.0 even the beta versions but the only one I succeed rebuilding It was BVO 1.0 I removed only 5 of unknown files, the rebuilded version was working good but some stuffs was missing in the map like trees and others as I think and the map was unopenable in the WE. What I need? I need to add new sound files into the MPQ archive (i.e mp3/wav files) but I can't do that due to the Protection. ok how about replacing the exist files (i.e mp3/mdx/blp etc) I have made some changes on mp3 files, war3map.j, mdx, so I need to replace them In the MPQ...! replacing the first file Is ok but the second replacing will lead the map to unstartable/unplayable "This Map size is too big" I tried to replace files as structure but didn't work. I tried to replace all files at once/replacing them one by one but didn't work. I tried to replace only 2 files but didn't work x). I tried all replace methods, even the mpq editor console method but also didn't work. What I decided is: - If the map size is over than 8mb the map wont start and "This map size is too big" message will appear when trying to start It. - Everytime I replace the MPQ size increases even If the replaced file is unedited/stock. - Replacing unedited/edit small files like mdx will able again more than 4 times until the MPQ sizes becomes 8mb. I'm using Ladik's MPQ Editor, Notepad ++, and WC3 v1.24 Map: https://www.epicwar.com/maps/302505/ Excuse me for my bad English Thanks a lot. |

Try with these MPQ Versions. After your edits, try optimize the map with w3x2Ini or Vexorian (not recommended) |

OMG finally...! You really saved me I tried to optimize the map as you said @devoltz and boom everything working great and editable in the WE...! What I did? Rebuilded the Map/MPQ with removed 11 of unknown files, after rebuilded I just optimize it via w3x2lni and finally It's playable and openable with WE...! I also tried to optimize the rebuilded map with Vexorian Optimizer but unfortunately didn't work I was always getting "Couldn't find the map's script file!" with no result. but Is that mean the MPQ are still protect or just the program It's out of date? * In the rebuilded mpq I can freely replace, add any new files but there's a 8mb limit in the MPQ...! * My final question Is how can I add a 40mb of new files into MPQ and still playable...? Note!: I'm not facing any problem with opening the map/MPQ so I just used the latest Ladik's MPQ Editor. Thanks. |

And if map size is really your issue, try updating to Warcraft 1.26 atleast, and get the 8mb+ size remover.

Oh, finally I understand why the author of BVO make an stand-alone patch for sound files...! the 40mb files that I want to add them was the sound patch for this map, I was just thinking about merging them with the map but now I know why for sure. Edit forgot this link: https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/ma ... ue.241793/ Changelog: https://liquipedia.net/warcraft/Patch_1.24 Now I can continue working on this project with no fear I will try to join Discord soon as possible... Thanks you for everything and thanks again @devoltz. Case Closed. |
