Mixes colors like warcraft does in the object editor

Ahem.

 

[tom_mai78101]

Ahem.

What about the Ahem? Your link only gives colors, but I was hoping for Sfilip to answer if he could inplement unit balancing features into NewGen.

Unless I miss something...

wow this appealed to me. from all the MPQs i used in the past, i can finally straighten up!

is there program that would convert a w3x map into a w3c map? like for HLW the creators imported untils but made it playable on RoC. Ive ask many people in the past and up to now who still dont know. any suggestions? since i would love to convert my tft sources into roc compatible.

It seems a bit pointless. I mean, just have them face off. Otherwise, just use this:

No program can tell you how to balance lol
You make the units the way you want, if you want a fair chance, do your best, test your heart out, wait for complaints, then change.

No unit is unbalanced unless multiple people say it is.

The programs that "balance" are just attempts for attention.

 

[tom_mai78101]

So, you could set each of the heroes' attack damages to 100000 and then wait for "Man, this is way balanced than <whatever map put here>!" That's balanced alright...

When is it possible to change triggers in realtime while testing out on WC3?

You do know theres such a thing as common sense right?

 

[tom_mai78101]

Yeah I know. Wc3 could repeat itself being tested on one single core, the other core is used for editing the Wc3.

I am wrong.

I have a question. Im using WC3 v1.21. The WEU says its for v1.20. Is this the reason why none of the "Advanced" functions in the WEU do not work. And if so is there a version of WEU for WC3 v1.20?

 

[SFilip]

WEU is outdated, there is no new version.
Advanced triggers need to be enabled using WEU Enhancer and you have to Init them using a special action.

I have New Gen, but it does not have these extra functions! I mainly want the GUI functions, I dont realy care for the limit-lifter. Is there a problem with usin WEU 1.20 on a WC3 1.21?

I think not until PitzerMike updates the WEU. You may send him a PM.

[tom_mai78101]

1. Post it in the WE Help Zone. You get faster help from there.
2. Please, fix your spelling, don't cuss, and just be polite. Not all helps are welcome, you know?
