JASS NewGen Pack 1.5d

[Heavy-Gear]

I downloaded newgen for the use of jasshelper but it doesn't seem to be working. I have 'enable jasshelper' ticked by it doesn't highlight my code or let me use scopes or anything..

EDIT: Problem fixed

I think that's TESH. I don't know. JassHelper is built only to aid you to check the JASS whether or not it is okay.

Found another UMSWE bug.
One of the added Conditions for "Event" is "Dies" This places "EVENT_UNIT_DEATH". What it SHOULD place is "EVENT_PLAYER_UNIT_DEATH"
That is the event that fires for the "Generic Unit Event": "A unit Dies"
Hope that was clear enough.

whenever i click on the link to download it,i click on open,then it asks me wat file i want to use to open it,and ive picked every choice it gives me and it says it wasnt able to open
wats wrong?

try Save As instead of Open? maybe you dont have an extractor that supports .7z

I downloaded it, but I have a problem when I enable the UMSWE. The problem is that when I enable it I should get a lot more functions in my trigger editor like: conditions: region comparisons well for some reason that's not happening, any advice??

No, UNSWE removes the doodad and terrain limits I believe.
I forget the name of the other editor that was used but that one had the extra GUI functions. Those leaked.


Also, for who this concerns.
Is an i++ going to be added into the next version?
Not that I need it, but an added GUI interface?

UMSWE should add a lot of GUI stuff. I'm not sure what the problem is, but a simple solution would be to stop using the GUI.

Is such pointless syntax sugar really necessary?

Yes, yes it is.

 

[PurgeandFire]

Yes, yes it is.

No, it simply makes it shorter to write. There isn't a "need" for it but it sure makes life easier if you use ++ a lot. Vexorian, I believe, just wanted to get opinions about the subject, I don't think he'll actually implement it. I'm not sure though.

 

[Prometheus]

I was talking about implementing it with SFilip and he said it...

(5:22:31 PM) kc102: You should get i++ to work!
(5:23:16 PM) SFilip: I'm working on it
(5:23:21 PM) SFilip: actually, I plan to, at some point
(5:23:41 PM) SFilip: but the preprocessor is made by vexorian so you could bug him to do it

 

[tom_mai78101]

Preprocessor?

Never knew this had a base.

 

[NewMap]

Let me tell you I am total noob, all i wanted was to "code" instead of "selecting" too many list items from the drop down box for writing triggers

so experts suggested me jass newgen pack


I just download and installed new jass newgen pack 5a

i unziped the file and placed in a c:\jass

i ran newgen we.exe but it didnt do any thing.

then ran jasshelper.exe in the c:\jass\jasshelper\

then i got "this application has failed to start because bin\SFmpq.dll was not found"

there was sfmpq.dll within this folder but from the error message i thought i should create a bin subfolder and move it there

then i got "missing arguments: <commonj> <blizzardj> <mappath> err

no clue what to do

I was thinking this is a gui for writing jass code but what all these exe (new gen we.exe, newgen warcraft.exe etc)

can any one give me step-by-step "hello world editor" kind of example

thanks in advance

Okay, Jass is basically the drop down list in coding form.
New Gen adds greater functionality to Jass.
GUI is a GUI for Jass, I suggest you learn GUI more before starting on Jass personally.

thanks,

but for a programmer typing is much convenient than using GUI (for coding)
its tough for me to give if else then condition lol

 

[Prometheus]

if (my cond) then
actions
elseif
otherActions
endif

 

[NewMap]

if (my cond) then
actions

otherActions
endif

thanks

im a new JASSer and i was just wondering...

does the Jass NewGen Pack increase the map size or make it load slower???

 

[Flare]

A slight map size increase -might- be possible since there is more stuff to use with vJASS and UMSWE, but PitzerMike or Vexorian would probably know for sure.

Slower loading? IIRC, DotA uses NewGen, and that loads pretty quickly, so it's not likely to make it noticeably slower than before

2 copies of the map script (one vJass, one compiled) must be stored, which makes the map larger. After the map has been optimized, there is absolutely no difference.
