Thanks, gonna try again.
Finished, but I do have a question.
3.MPQMaster
Unrar it if you haven't, and open it up!
It should look like this.
Now then, press File, then Open(or alternately press ctrl+O)direct it to the map which you have already made a listfile for.
It should look something like this.
Ok, now then, select the options you want, should select; the listfile you created in mpqmaster, and any other listfiles you have that may help, I suggest, Warcraft III.txt, and Listfile.txt if you have them, then press the big OK Button.
It should now look like this.
Ok, now that we've got your map all opened up in mpqmaster, it should have everything all set, meaning no files are named Unknown000000000.xxx, if it isnt all setup, you need to make a better listfile, so compile one up, or use the one in xdep as well as the one you made, and open it again, then, lets move on.
You need to extract all files to the folder in which xdep created when it tried to unprotect the map, in the folder within that folder named 'files'.
It should look like this when extracting.
and in the folder, it should look like this.
Now then, go ahead and run xdep again, if it worked, grats, you did it well, if it didn't I'm sorry, maybe this wasn't for you, or this was a hard map, lets request it for Xantan to do it?
When you extract the files to the folder named "files" do you try deprotecting the original, the one you just deprotected or is there a third option I'm not seeing because I'm a noob?
Ugh the other option I see is putting it int the temp folder in the folder named files, but then how do I convert the temp folder into a wc3 file? Sorry for the questions but the last step in the process is really, really vague.
Ok after getting a good description ofwhat to do on that last step and the fact that its supposed to not create now files and use the ones you've compiled it doesn't work. Same error message and I've followed the instructions to the "T".
Can someone deprotect it for me? I'm not having any luck with this after spending 2 hours trying to deprotect.
