Help on deprotecting map

Post by jiafish »

So I have this map that is quite persistant.
http://www.epicwar.com/maps/204960/
its not in english.

Ive read most guides here, and have tried most of the deprotection method.
MPQmaster, X-dep, MPQEditor, Deprotect
all of them, when opening the map, crashes.
Im starting to think its my computer or something, but the programs were able to cheat many maps without problems before, even maps in other languages like this one.

Im wondering if any1 can help me, and thank you in advance.

I think I said it like a bilion times.
If you can't open the map in any common MPQEditor, such as MPQMaster, the map MPQ Header is corrupted, you need to rebuild it.

"the programs were able to cheat many maps without problems before"
if you just want to cheat it and not deprotect it, you could always try mpqview or winmpq

Sorry but I'm not on here a lot and didn't realize that it had to do with rebuilding mpq

However my problem is a little different. None of the programs can even open the map, as in while they are trying to open it, they crash.

When I tried to follow your video on youtube, I was stuck on the MPQ viewer part. When I tried to save, it gave me an error of "External exception 80000003." Nothing is saved.

When I tried your rebuilding an mpq guide, everything was done up till the end, when xdep still couldnt deprotect the map after everything ive done before. it shows that it couldnt open war3map.w3i

Thanks for your efforts.

Also, winmpq crashes when I try to open the map.



edit:

I just wanted to cheat the map and I did it with mpqeditor there. The problems still remain but deprotection is not my goal

Thank you haxorico and your guides, the title to that guide did not seem really relevant to my problem so i ignored it.
