Hello! Im new to this Warcraft map making kinda, and I can't find the answers to this on the internet, so I post it here:

1. At the start at my game [WHEN IM TESTING], It shows that Im victory? Is this just becouse Im testing or is it something other?

2. Im trying to make a campaign right, so Im using some cinematic stuff. After Cinematic on, the conversion, then cinematic off in the Trigger Editor, what now?? Like I know it's done, but Im using it as when my units enter a region, it activates the cinematic, and it starts talking. When done talking, cinematic turns off, and if my units just goes out and in of that litle region, it does the cinematic over again .. Is there any way to turn that off, like it does it once not more? As if I go in, cinematic, then something that turn that trigger off, as it wont happen again?


3. Is there possible to at the start, remove the castle? Like, as I said Im creating a kinda campaign.. So I don't want to have a castle .. Is there any way to remove that? When I place out a starting point, it creates a castle automatic .. Any way to remove that?

I hope you understood me, I really suck in english sorry..

* = Got the answer, thanks.
* = Still need answer, please :)

Please help..
Thanks :D

1. You must remove the enforece victory/defeat condition from Melee initialization

2. Set
trigger - Turn Off [This Trigger]

at the end of it

Welcome to the Helper.net

1) There is a trigger that has a "Melee - Enforce melee victory conditions". You have to delete that. The condition are basically: If there are no enemy buildings, then you win.

2) Add a line at the end of the cinematic trigger: "Trigger - Turn off (this trigger)"

I always do :thup:
But then ... Oh now that Ive removed the defeat/victory thingie at start, will it work?

And, I still need to have that castle?'


And btw, sorry I posted that right before I edited my question xD

EDIT: It worked man ty so very very very very very much! :DD Now I finally can create my campaign ..


BUT OOOOOOOOOOOONE MORE QUESTION XD:

When I save my map, and close it, and later bring it up again, it wont load. It says error not enough space .. or something like that .. Is that coz I only got a lil over 1 GB disk space? Or what :p

you can remove any of those actions, they aren't linked together

as a matter of fact you will most likely want to remove them all

except Use melee time of day
and run melee AI scripts (this you might also want to remove)


others are to give you start gold, remove neutrals around the castle, create castle and workers, give the 1st hero a scroll, limit heroes etc, i remove them all mostly

EDIT: Im afraid that last question is out of bounds of my knowledge m8

i wouldn't bet on it, try to solve your problem....1 GB is much much more than enough to load a map that hardly wages more than 0.5 MB or so....

Ok this is kinda offtopic, but, doooo youuuuu knoooow (lol:p) how I do as Player 1 cant buy any units from buildnings? Bad explained, let's give an example:
In my campaign,
Red stars far far away from his castle, and his mission is to get back to the castle with that hero whos far away. In the other side off map. Okay? And that castle is HIS, but how do I fix as he cant buy any upgrades or units from that? Or simply, just deactivates the whole castle as he cannot select them or anything .. I read somewhere that you could do as you could select units, but then I thought u couldnt select ur Hero either so I didn't try .. Do u know anything about it?

you could make the Castle be treated as a unit that needs to be rescued that way he wont be able to use it and when he come near it it will become his

EDIT: In order to make it be rescued you need to do:

Unit - Make unit rescueable action and select the castle as a reference,
this is the simple way of putting it.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
