Do Not Use WEU

[pandamoniuma]

I've been banging my head against the wall for about a week now trying to fix the server split problem at initialization with the map I've been working on using WEU. I just rewrote all the triggers in the regular map editor, and it works like a charm, a lot less laggy too. So my advice to everyone - uninstall WEU it doesn't work anymore

 

[Geelottaja]

Well spotted. Most of WEU's options are quite obsolete, but it hasn't given me any problems because I simply don't use it's addinitional options. The only reasons I'm using it is because I can't write effective JASS and it's organized better than the regular WE.

it is also easy make a load and save code with weu.. that is why i am using it

 

[robinremue]

Weu 's good for terraining Don't have to set all the excessive values manually

 

[LegACy99]

yep, the only great thing WEU has is its terrain editor...

 

[Vexorian]

Your triggers were bugged, when you rebuilt the triggers from scratch you accidentally fixed the bugs.

WEU has corrupted maps of mine before. Maps where their triggers and what not worked perfectly in the original editor, but in WEU it all flubbed up. And I mean NOTHING was different between the map files.

I don't use WEU for a number of reasons.

Oh God..Don't start this...it'll just end up being closed...

Trust Me This Is From Experience

Don't have to set all the excessive values manually

What is the excessive values you? hmm...
Cheerio

Weu was 'bugged' when it was released. It just makes things easier. If you're lazy enough to use it, use it. If you can take the time to do things yourself, don't use it.

WEU has Lagged my com more than once. Unless i am using a wrong version, but i do not see the reason to as when i was using WEU it does not much help me in any way. Either I am too noob to use it or i did not reach the level to work with those added functions.

 

[thedude]

The advanced functions are horrible, however, some new functions like how they made it so you can create a unit using a variable, and removing points and regions without custom script are about the only things I use.

 

[waaaks!]

well i stoped using WEU when i found out that some of the spells fields are bugged, like when i open the flamestrike ability some of the fields like, full damage, max damage are changed to 'AH031h2', i dont even understand them...

 

[~GaLs~]

last time i maked a very very complicated trigger with weu...and i found out it wont work...then i am toooo lazy to recheck the whole trigger...Just straight on We and copy the whole trigger to it...
then it works like charm <3
Whats the problem?

that means WEU is bugged and WE works better

 

[Zerotech]

I don't see the problem with using either WEU or UMSWE. I reckon they are very good tools to use.

I would make an assumption that you're trying to write the triggers on a recent updated patch from blizzard (the v1.21). If you have v1.21 patch of war3 installed my advice is to downgrade the war3 patch to v1.20 for now as WEU is NOT compatible with the recent updates, until someone releases and update for it.

i still cant forgot about weu's nice sorting of options in object editor...<3

 

[elmstfreddie]

Frankly I died when I saw how it sorted things in the object editor, it confused me forever and took forever to get used to it.
Then, it corrupted my map, so I went back to WE.
I didn't need to adapt how the options were sorted in that, because they are sorted logically! The sorting in WEU just confuses me to all hell.

Other than that, as said, like 99% of its add-ons are useless. Someone said they use it for the save/load, but that's dumb, because you don't get the fun of designing your own, and anyone who uses WEU could crack the code REALLY easy!!!

 

[Storm]

Haha... WEU, you got owned.

[U are a noob]

Perhaps a mod should make a sticky thread talking about the advantages and disadvantages about WEU? I mean theres a thread posted about it every 3 days.
