Hey all, I'm helping a friend with his map (called Butter. It's a DotA style game, with a few twists) and one of the skills for a character of mine involves a chance to evade attacks, and increasing attack speed for a short time when you do. Is there a way of creating a trigger that works...

Is there any way for the mini-map to be drawn upside down? Especially in a way that I can apply to a select group of players? I'd like both teams in a map me and my friend are working on to have the same perspective, and for that perspective to match the MM, but the start at different ends of...

I've used the custom loading screen tutorial on the tuts site, but I'd like to use a proper one with 4 corners, like what Blizzard uses. I've got the images ready, but I can't work out how to put them in. Does anyone know where I could find a 4 corner .mdx? Or another way I could use my...

Here's my problem(s): I created a new abilty, based off the Summon Lava Spawn ability, and then created three different types of Spawn: Poison, Ice and Fire. I edited their colours to make them Green, Blue and Orange respectively. Then I tried to make custom abilties for the Poison and Ice...

Here's our problem. Me and my friend have made 2 of the 6 planned custom heroes for our map, and neither of them will lvl past the very beggining of lvl 5. They will go from lvl 4 TO lvl 5, but they exp bar will remain empty. Maximum hero lvl is set to 30... Can anyone help? - ][ocus

I'm looking for some ambient sounds, to give my game some atmosphere. Things like crowd noises (such as you'd here in a tavern or walking through a crowded city). Does anyone know where I could find these? Note: The "tavern" ambient sound that's in the game is hopeless! - ][ocus

I seem to recall (back when I was making maps before) that you could move doodads along the Z axis (i.e: up and down). Is it still possible? How? - scam

Does anyone have any idea to move regions (in a trigger)? World Editor says it can't be done unless the region is a variable, but I tried making a region variable, assigning it, and moving it, and still nothing. Anyone got any ideas? Cam

Not a question,a just a helpful post. I had trouble with this (units wandering out of the area they were supposed to be in, namely) and worked out and easy way of solving it. Make the region you want your unit to not move out of, and then make the trigger: Event = Unit leaves [the region you...

I can't add files to my map! For some reason, when I add them, they don't appear. And the ones I added 2 days ago have gone! What's happening? How do I fix it? Cam

I need to make a custom creep in bear form. For some reason, this won't work, unless I give him Druid of the Claw master training. Can anyone think of a way around this? Cam

Ok, REALLY BIG PROBLEM!! I've tried my able best to work this out myself, and I can't! Here's how it goes: - I am making an RPG map. - I have an opening cinematic, with a small trigger set up at the start of the game, so you can choose to watch or skip the opening cinematic. -...

Can someone tell me how to use/set up/ play music lists? I have no idea what I'm doing here.... Cam

My first attempt at skinning failed dismally. I corrupted my War3.mpq file! Could someone plz plz plz (plz) send me a copy of their unedited one? pretty plz? Either attach it here, or email it to [email protected] Thanx in advance... Cam

I'm guessing that the program (ExtProtect, in case some fool forgot to read the subject line but just saw my name and decided to open it) only stops the map being opened in World Edit., not Warcraft III, but I thought I should make sure, just in case. Cam

How do I stop the default music that plays? I've stopped music and played my own music, but it still keeps going in the background! Really annoying me! Lay in dust around me Shut the eyes that never found me Loneliness wont hear you when you call Took my time to see it Hide the...

Ok, I know how to do the text that comes up the side of the screen, but what I really want is text about 4 times bigger, and in the centre of the screen. (like a title for a game) Is there anyway of doing this? or am I just dreaming? I kno you can have the small text in centre screen, becuase I...

Ok, if you know how to do this and it works for you, no need to read this, but if it doesn't, or you don't, read on! Ok, the Blizzard Map FAQ thread (click here ) is mistaken about how to do colours in text. Then again, it might just be my world editor, but i doubt it... It tells you to...

Like I said, WOW! I was working on my RPG in World Editor, wanted to make some text green, but only knew how to do Yellow. So I went searching on Google. And found this website. People talking about how to make custom abilities (someone tell me how to do this please!!) and about WinMPQ and about...
