the guy above me is not quiet right, blizzard made it so that any map that uses the return bug will not work, try to avoid return bug

Also not returning anything in an elseif block will error, if I read that thread right. If your/a map uses H2I replace the calls with 'return GetHandleId(h)'.

your both wrong.. new patch screwed everything up. thats all there is to it. it even added some random crap to my WE and now i got garbage useless triggers all over. pretty much any map that is big or includes cool stuff in unusable. hope blizzard fixes what they messed up..
(also they banned vck and some other stuff officially.)
WTF! http://visualcustomkick.com/forums/index.php?topic=889.0 you mess up patch and take away our goodies! T.T

that will never be the case no matter how jacked up blizzard makes things. GUI is just a less complicated way of JASS, you cant make the JASS worse then the GUI

Hes right. Even if I am a GUI person (i also started to learn some JASS) u cant make JASS worse than GUI. JASS is way better than GUI and u r so free when u r using JASS. With GUI u r kinda limited

Wrong. Yes it is completely obvious (even to us GUI morons as we are assumed to be stupid because we don't need Jass) that Jass is less limited, but it is not as sure. If I use Jass I will never know when the next patch will ruin it. I will never know what codes are safe to use. And therefor, as of now, GUI is a more "safe" way of doing things you don't need Jass for, because it is guaranteed 92% to work. (not rly, more like 20%)
Btw just cause I use GUI for simple functions doesn't mean im ignorant moron, so you can shut up with those comments. :)

you would know if you learned Jass

besides theres no point of arguing this, you can stick firmly to your belief and stop arguing about this topic in 2 threads

Not what patch 1.24 says. I'm sure the people didn't know.

I will thank you. There are benefits to both ways, and for me gui is better as of now. And you in turn, can stop making assumptions. ^.^ IQ test isn't how much you know in Jass.

I have never seen anyone make assumptions based on the fact someone only knows GUI.

The maps aren't corrupted, you just have to fix them....

I ran into problemss with WE and thought it was NewGen (Most of it was) But here are two of the common things i've seen...

1) Can't test maps with the test button in NewGen WE
Fix) Disable "Reinventing The Craft"

2) Maps don't show up when you try to host them on TFT, they do however show up in the NewGen Test folder. There seems to be a couple fixes for this.
Fix1) Rename the map in your windows explorer. (Worked for me, My maps name was too long so I shortened it.)
Fix2) Fix the code in your triggers there is something with jass that needs to be changed, im not sure what it is but search around and you will find it (if its not in this thread:rolleyes:)

PS: DrStyles has no clue what he is talking about when it comes to the problem with jass and this patch.

    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
