you have to extract the war3map.j then reinsert it into the map. or you can use winmpq to edit the war3map.j without extracting
If you have any questions drop in by chat sometime, chances are there'll be someone who can help you that's afking there, so the next best thing is to click the link on UndeadxAssassin's Sig and ask your question there.

Removed the spam post.
And sext why the hell are you trying to edit a file when you don't even know what it is.
