Questions

Post by Apple »

1, What is the use of deleting attributes of a map? I only know that it can stop a map from compact flushing.
2, Why are some maps not in warcraft III/Maps/Download and playable(visible in frozen throne), and some maps are not playable(not visible in frozen throne) in other folders in the root folders of warcraft III/Map?
3, How to fix situation 2 to make maps visible in frozenthrone.exe,

1. If you don't delete attributes, the edited map won't work anymore. I think it crashes when you click on it in the map select screen. Don't know the technicality behind it.
2. I have no idea what you're saying.
3. !?

I'll show you screenshots..

I deleted all attributes, it has nothing to do with attributes.
Are these maps spoiled? No, it can work in a specific place,Some in Warcraft III/Maps/0123456789
some unfortunately in Warcraft III/Maps/Download

I can't put the map in Warcraft III/Maps/Download because I have too many maps, can't find which is the one I want, And it's VERY lag to open that folder.
This lead me to put maps in other folder, and the problem that it doesn't shows up, is the trouble that I'm finding a solution for.

From Image 2, you can see that only 1 map appeared in that directory, that is playable.
However, I have a lot more other maps which I want to play and it just doesn't shows up.

The only thing I notice is that Desert Smite has the shortest file name and is the only one that works. Decrease the character count of the other maps to or below Desert Smite's and see if they still don't work. Then I can legitimately say I have no idea. ;o
