How do you...

[Drabstar]

First question
--------------
How do you create a map bigger than 256x256?
I want to tinker around with it if it's possible.

Second Question
-----------------
How do you upload pictures without having to link them to a site?
I have never upload pictures on this site so I don't want to screw up.
If I upload a picture, will it show flat-out on a post I would create in the future, or would I have to upload them on a site then give the link?
Hate having to do that, but I will if I must

Third Question
---------------
How do you change the amount you get from a monster per-kill?
Like I kill a kobolt for example, how do I make it so you get like 200 gold (not realisticly that much) but you understand

Fourth Question
----------------
How do you change the amount of gold you get per mine?
The default is 10 per peasant(worker) how can I make it 8? and make the First upkeep change it to 6 and last upkeep to 4?
---------------------------------------
Questions that I would love to know
I will +rep all who will give me a simple, but detailed instuctions on how to do these. Thanks alot people!

How do I change the Warcraft III's picture TGA to something that I can see.

third question

did u put a lot of creeps and do not want to change the reward for each kind of creep manually? just add a trigger like this one:

Rewards
    events
        Units_ - A unit owned by neutral-hostile is dead
   
    conditions
    
    actions

        Player - Add ((Level of (Dying unit)) x 50) to (Owner of (Killing unit)) actual gold
        Game - Display to (Player group((Owner of (Killing unit)))) the text: (gold from killing creep:  + (String(((Level of (Dying unit)) x 50))))

obviously i put 50 just for example

FOURTH QUESTION

first, im italian and i have an it version so i hope im giving the right translation. look at the Harvest ability that peasants have, and change the admount of gold carried!then just look into Game Constants and change Taxes On Gold

 

[I_RULE_YOU]

Your right about the fourth question, but with the third one, you dont need that trigger at all........go into Object Editor, change Bounty Rewarded.

Do you or anybody know how I can view TGA picture files?
I want to convert them into JPEG but I don't know how or if it's even possible.
Thanks!

sure i know, but lets suppose he put 100 different creeps in his map. changing all Bounty Rewarded would be really boring.. this trigger can fix all in 2 secs

Thanks so much!:thup:

use acdsee for example.. or if u want a free one, i'm thinking about Pixia but im sure almost every program for viewing/editing images can do it but Paint XD

btw u might need to convert a TGA to a BLP to add a a loadscreen to ur map so u can use wc3 image extractor 2 (just google it)

Fourth Question
----------------
How do you change the amount of gold you get per mine?
The default is 10 per peasant(worker) how can I make it 8? and make the First upkeep change it to 6 and last upkeep to 4?

The peasant has a Gold Mine ability that changes the amount of time that it stays in the mine, as well as the amount of gold that it carries from the mine.
The difference between this and only editing the gameplay constants (not interface*, by the way), which was mentioned earlier, is that it drains 8 at a time, instead of 10 at a time. You still need to go to the Gameplay Constants tab anyways, and at the very bottom, there's a line that reads something like "Upkeep - Levels", modify those appropriately.



Another answer to the Third question is that for a Tower Defense, if you have tons of creeps that all give a progressively universal but increasing bounty, you can do:
A unit Dies
Owner of Dying Unit equal to Player 12 (Brown)
Player - add bountyInteger** Gold to Owner of Killing Unit
Floating Text: do all of the following:
Set velocity, disable permanence, set lifespan to 5, set fade age to 3, pick every player and Hide floating text for Picked Player, Show floating text for Owner of Killing Unit

Then, do a periodic increasing bountyInteger, with a message to all players: Game - Display Text Message to All Players: Bounty has been increased.

*The Gameplay Interface section only modifies the textures, models, and text in-game, while the Gameplay Constants section modifies the data fields themselves.
**This is a Real Variable.
