"External not found in config file: "Object Merger""

[Sevion]

Does anyone else get this error?

(If you're wondering, I'm trying to use UnitProperties with the new .lua file)

I have the lua file in the same directory as the map.

Maps with already compiled object data work fine, it's just the compiling that doesn't work for me?

You sure that you have modified jasshelper.conf yet?

 

[Sevion]

I didn't see any mention about a modified jasshelper.conf :-/

Can you point me to it?

Sorry, I forgot to get back here until I saw that you asked this in wc3c too.

Anyways, you need write the path to your objectmerger so newgen can use it. Find jasshelper.conf and open it in notepad.

Looks like this:

[externaltools]
// this is for //! external NAME args the syntax is "NAME","executable path"
// example:
//"OBJMERGE","c:\kool.exe"

Then you just have to use that "NAME","executable path" syntax, so newgen can find your objectmerger or soemthing like that.

[externaltools]
// this is for //! external NAME args the syntax is "NAME","executable path"
// example:
//"OBJMERGE","c:\kool.exe"

"ObjectMerger","c:\NewGen\grimext\ObjectMerger.exe"

somethign like that.

I still get the error

I got:

[externaltools]
// this is for //! external NAME args the syntax is "NAME","executable path"
// example:
//"OBJMERGE","c:\kool.exe"

"ObjectMerger","C:\Users\Sevion\Documents\Jass\JNGP\grimext\ObjectMerger.exe"

Still a no-go.

 

[_whelp]

Try using

"ObjectMerger","grimext\ObjectMerger.exe"

That's what I found in my jasshelper.conf.
