Post by GM_reggie »

Can anyone teach me how to change the map name of a map?

Including the map name that people see when joining your game and the map name in loading screen.

I know how now,but I can't do it on dota maps. When I try to search for "dota" in the war3map.j,I couldn't find it.

Open the map in a hex editor and Hex edit the map itself. As the game lobby you have to edit the war3map.wts file which is located in the root of the map.
