Why does it say at the very beginning it only works for Frozen Throne maps? >_< You can either 1, just modify the file tag from w3m to w3x (works) or 2, modify the ini file so it deprotects .w3m's instead of .w3x's....
Why is it that when a simply task is to be done, people must make it complex?

My guess would it be that it has a Frozen Throne only trigger function that Reign of Chaos doesn't have.

I would suggest you to use WEU No-Limits, but with the new patch it would corrupt your map, and make it unfixable.

The only way I think you could counter this is by getting the preplaced doodads file from the map, extract it, remove the trees, edit whatever you want besides doodads, and save, then replace the file by using MPQMaster.

I put xdep in the same folder as all my other stuff, and I don't know if that affects whether or not the "files" section comes out, because I didn't get it. ><
