Q) Can't understand anything on your guide , can you make it more easy and simple ?
A) Nope , but you can ask ya

Notes And Tips

Spoiler:

- Need good knowledge about Jass , atleast can read and write Jass . Slow or fast it's fine
- Be Creative
- Better Touch Dz163 Before Try This

Method Explain

Spoiler:

- The reason Dz163 Map unable to play on LAN or Battlenet because it's use custom native provide by plaform , The normal Warcraft 3 don't have the native so it unable to host because syntax error
- So what we do now is fake the native and convert it to function , this is why the map "playable" only .

Tools

Spoiler:

- Ladik's MPQ
- Jass Craft
- Notepad++(Optional)
- Pjass.exe(Inside Jasscraft)
- Fukki Hex Editor(Somewhere around Wc3edit)
- Example Map

Step-To-Step

Spoiler:

1. Extract War3map.j

2. Find Native
- Native alway under endglobals so you can find them there

Here is in Example Map

native RequestExtraBooleanData takes integer dataType,player whichPlayer,string param1,string param2,boolean param3,integer param4,integer param5,integer param6 returns boolean
native RequestExtraIntegerData takes integer dataType,player whichPlayer,string param1,string param2,boolean param3,integer param4,integer param5,integer param6 returns integer
native DzAPI_Map_SaveServerValue takes player whichPlayer,string key,string value returns boolean
native DzAPI_Map_GetServerValue takes player whichPlayer,string key returns string
native DzAPI_Map_Stat_SetStat takes player whichPlayer,string key,string value returns nothing
native DzAPI_Map_IsRPGLobby takes nothing returns boolean
native DzAPI_Map_GetMapLevel takes player whichPlayer returns integer
native DzAPI_Map_HasMallItem takes player whichPlayer,string key returns boolean
native EXGetUnitAbility takes unit u,integer abilcode returns ability
native EXGetAbilityDataReal takes ability abil,integer level,integer data_type returns real
native EXSetAbilityDataReal takes ability abil,integer level,integer data_type,real value returns boolean
native EXSetItemDataString takes integer itemcode,integer data_type,string value returns boolean
native EXGetEventDamageData takes integer edd_type returns integer
native EXSetEventDamage takes real amount returns boolean

3.Convert Native to Function
- You can copy those Native into a new file for easy to see and not mess with the function inside map
change all "native" into "function" and put endfunction under them

function DzAPI_Map_SaveServerValue takes player whichPlayer,string key,string value returns nothing
endfunction
function DzAPI_Map_GetServerValue takes player whichPlayer,string key returns string
endfunction
function DzAPI_Map_Stat_SetStat takes player whichPlayer,string key,string value returns nothing
endfunction
function DzAPI_Map_IsRPGLobby takes nothing returns boolean
endfunction
function DzAPI_Map_GetMapLevel takes player whichPlayer returns integer
endfunction
function DzAPI_Map_HasMallItem takes player whichPlayer,string key returns boolean
endfunction
function EXGetUnitAbility takes unit u,integer abilcode returns ability
endfunction
function EXGetAbilityDataReal takes ability abil,integer level,integer data_type returns real
endfunction
function EXSetAbilityDataReal takes ability abil,integer level,integer data_type,real value returns boolean
endfunction
function EXSetItemDataString takes integer itemcode,integer data_type,string value returns boolean
endfunction
function EXGetEventDamageData takes integer edd_type returns integer
endfunction
function EXSetEventDamage takes real amount returns boolean
endfunction

4. Valid Function and Syntax Fix
- Read and understand function ,for example this :
DzAPI_Map_SaveServerValue , Why we need connect to there server when you play not in there server .
DzAPI_Map_GetServerValue , It's get something from the server and return string . This need you look around the code that call this . In example map i return "dummystring"

Okay , here is the function after make it valid and syntax fix

function DzAPI_Map_SaveServerValue takes player whichPlayer,string key,string value returns nothing
endfunction
function DzAPI_Map_GetServerValue takes player whichPlayer,string key returns string
return "dummystring"
endfunction
function DzAPI_Map_Stat_SetStat takes player whichPlayer,string key,string value returns nothing
endfunction
function DzAPI_Map_IsRPGLobby takes nothing returns boolean
return true
endfunction
function DzAPI_Map_GetMapLevel takes player whichPlayer returns integer
return 5
endfunction
function DzAPI_Map_HasMallItem takes player whichPlayer,string key returns boolean
return false
endfunction
function EXGetUnitAbility takes unit u,integer abilcode returns ability
return null
endfunction
function EXGetAbilityDataReal takes ability abil,integer level,integer data_type returns real
return .0
endfunction
function EXSetAbilityDataReal takes ability abil,integer level,integer data_type,real value returns boolean
return false
endfunction
function EXSetItemDataString takes integer itemcode,integer data_type,string value returns boolean
return false
endfunction
function EXGetEventDamageData takes integer edd_type returns integer
return 0
endfunction
function EXSetEventDamage takes real amount returns boolean
return false
endfunction

5. Syntax Check(Optional)
- Get Pjass.exe , Common.j , Common.ai , Blizzard.j from Jass Craft Folder or you can get them from Hiveworkshop and War3.mpq . Put them in a folder with War3map.j

Create a .cmd , input this :
pjass common.j common.ai Blizzard.j War3map.j >Error.txt

Then run it , then open Error.txt if you see error that not related to your edit that you did . Ignore it and you done

If you got those $ error , you know what to do right ? Fukki Hex Fixer is ur friend here

Here is the error for Example War3map.j

Parse successful: 2418 lines: common24.j
Parse successful: 2583 lines: common24.ai
Parse successful: 10230 lines: Blizzard24.j
War3map.j Functions passed to Filter or Condition must return a boolean
War3map.j Functions passed to Filter or Condition must return a boolean

War3map.j Functions passed to Filter or Condition must return a boolean
War3map.j Functions passed to Filter or Condition must return a boolean
War3map.j failed with 6 errors
Parse failed: 6 errors total

Look legit ya

Notes : Don't use fix hex war3map.j , use the base one . Fix Hex War3map.j for syntax check only

6. Import and Test
- Just Import the file back to the map , Compact Archive or Vex Optimizer if you want
- Test and feel your work

Nice guide.

Nice guide.

Haven't Finish yet but Ty ; w ;

Haven't Finish yet but Ty ; w ;

There's a similar protection on RGC dota maps, i managed to make it playable long time ago, didnt knew about that chinese platform.

There's a similar protection on RGC dota maps, i managed to make it playable long time ago, didnt knew about that chinese platform.

I can say those protection kinda like DRM

[nuzamacuxe]

Good job. Would be cool if you add some images to make it good looking. Keep it up.
