Could you be able to add all models and textures you are using to the Mpq and then if som1 wanted to play your map all they have to do is replace the Mpq they have with the dowloadable one we supply?

What kind of drugs are you on?

It may be, but you would force people to download a massive MPQ just to play map?

I don't think you could get one person to do it.

It is possible to swap the war3.mpq with another one temporarily before running a map. It is not possible to the best of my knowledge to read data from a totally separate mpq file. Permanently swapping your war3.mpq with something else will result in a patch overwriting it when you try to connect to Battle.net.

So even if we update the Mpq and add all the stuff, when we go on bnet it will overwrite it with a patch?

If by updating the war3.mpq you mean adding your Naruto models and low quality music, yes. Battle.net does not tolerate any modifications to your war3.mpq.

Like? A hostbot? or what? And will only the host need this? or every player need this program?

No, a program the simply swaps the mpq files. Then you run the map. And where would a host bot come in if you cannot play on Battle.net with a modified war3.mpq file?

It is a lost cause. The 8 mb limit wants you to surrender at once.

You can swap them. Before running Warcraft III and playing the map, that is. You cannot swap them while Warcraft III is running.

Surrender now.

Never! I will find a way to do this! lol

So Bnet will overwrite the current one, but is there like no way to access a different mpq in the directory?

Not to my knowledge. Accept the 8 mb limit. It is not as if Blizzard was denying you the right to vote or anything. Conform.

    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.

    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
