I restarted again and still no dice. However I found Norton was running in the background (~sigh~) and uninstalled all Norton applications, restarted, redownloaded NewGen, and it's working now.
Have some questions about this new gen. I did not installed the new gen like it seys in here, just copied WC3 folder extracted from rar and opened Newgen editor. Edited my map saved and relockated it in my old WC3 folder where is no Newgen extracted, but game works fine. Tried to start map but it does not opened. If i do all what seys in this trade about installation. Will the map be able to run in usual Warcraft 3 frosen trone?
and one thing. I got 1.26a of Warcraft 3. My newgen can open my map with no problems and can save it with no problem, but Warcraft 3 cant start the map when im lanching game and trying to start it as a costome game or lan game.
You don't need to 'install' newgen. Just extract it to some folder and run it from there. I have no idea what you did when you 'installed' it.
Can you test the map from the newgen editor? Have you saved the map before directly before testing it? What happens when you try to open the map in Wc3?
I just extracted the Newgen zip in my seccond warcraft 3 folder (my wc3 is 1.26a) Opened my map with newgen, did some triger changes (created a trigger with unit takes damage) saved my map as new one and tryed to open it with my first warcraft3 frosen trone that does not have newgen, becose i cant test it with Newgen some problem apeares when i hit test button. When im trying to creat the map as a lan game, when i dubleclick on map in map list it just returnes to the lan server list page.
There's just one thing that annoys me and I couldnt find any answer with google search about it: since I installed JNGP, whenever I test a custom map in WE, the Interface "theme" is always Undead, with skulls everywhere and an undead hand cursor & voice...even though my Player1 is Orc.
See I'm making a Tauren map and it really doesn't fit.
I sometimes do play Undead but just not this time.
Or even third party. Like if you don't have an original one in a functional condition, you cannot play this game properly. Like yeah the keyboard mods exist, but I think those are BARELY functional
And since almost all of my programming experience is with defunct shit now, I figure my best place is helping preserve legacy stuff. Which I don't know how to do necessarily, but I need some kind of a hobby and figuring out how older things worked is the only shit that really interests me. Well soldering and restoration is fun too, but no one is bringing me new stuff to fix and restore, so it's mostly old shit, and I LOVE OG Xbox so much. I want to make sure it can function as long as possible, until someone can effectively emulate it at least. I have like 15 I was going to fix over the winter and didn't get to.
I also have a couple OG gameboys, but idk if I can do that without like, manufacturing new parts that no one makes anymore and I can't do that right now
Yeah Tom, me too sorry for your loss buddy my mom told me she finds out her olds friend died from Google searching them. She had not talked to one of her old friends in a year and found out she died from Google. Also another one in the same session. RIP all of them my sincere condolences Tom
We have some elderly guests that regularly come hang out at the bar at the end of the night, and every once in a while we don't see someone for a few weeks and then someone shows up with their obituary.
We usually let them do their memorials there in the morning if they want to and I'll make them some snacks and drinks. There was one guy named Tom that came in like every night and would sit by himself and get a bunch of soup and a glass of wine. idk why but he LOVED our fucking soup, like he would order a fucking quart of it at a time and would always get so sad when we stop doing it for the summer.
But he also loved our calamari, which is another thing I hate but it sells super well so I can't change it. There was one day he came in and was asking me how to make it, because he tried to at home once in the off season when we stop running it and he really wanted it lol
I think he's one of the only people I've made recipes for for free because he really wanted a broccoli cheddar, and it was like dude I don't have a recipe, it's just whatever I have, but here, this is how you do it
I don't think he ever figured out how to do the calamari in a pan though, like idk how to do that either. He was afraid of the at home deep fryers though and it's like yeah, that's fair, I am too
He was just such a sweet old man, we had two servers pregnant and they held a baby shower together, he was soooooo fucking excited to get to see a baby. Unfortunately he died a month or so before they were born
So I decided to Google some people that I had not seen or heard from in a while and sure enough one of my old best friends, we had a falling out years ago but whatever, find out he died of Pancreatic Cancer in January. I have also lost a few of my closer acquaintances from growing up the last year. Getting old - people die - I kinda thought it was going to be this way a few years ago....
