Sorry,

It seems I don't understand the guide about how to play MIDI files (at least it didn't work for me)
Might somebody mind explaining again?

The guide says otherwise. Can anyone confirm this?

I read a bit into the guide and it looks as if you have to change settings in RegEdit. And if that's the case, then all players will have to have settings changed in order to hear the MIDI files :-/

I think.

Some proof:

But responses in the thread say otherwise - I don't think the writer of the tutorial can be trusted anyway, as it was mostly plagiarised.

lol...i think the point of it all is that if EVERYONE does the tutorial then everyone can listen to any war3 map that would have MIDI files running, isn't that so? but i mean come on...i haven't done it because I know 90 percent of bnet isn't going to...right? anyway maybe after you're done with whatever maps you're programming you can put this in there as icing on the cake so to speak but unless you got the cake finished, why bother with the icing?

of course if there was a map i liked that made a point to say that it had MIDI music playing and told me to get the MIDI support for war3 installed, of course i would. i think anyone would. right now there just aren't any maps like that.

if you've got a map and you wanna meet me on bnet to test it let me know i'll help you out with it...i don't really remember how complicated all that is but after learning about so much map making lately it probably can't be all that bad...

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before

    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences
