[WotLk] [QUESTION] [NOGGIT] edit blizzard maps

<< < (2/5) > >>

I found no issues editing blizzard map so far. It all seems great, can save them after, etc. The problem is that there won't be any changes visible in-game. I spent half a day on this and nothing. It acts like the map put in custom patch was never loaded up by the client as it simply displays standard map. So could it be that Noggit's saved ADTs are not compatible?

No, then if would crash. The client has no fallback mechanisms or anything. It just never loaded your stuff.

I even added my stuff (coming straight from newest Noggit SDL) to a working MPQ patch (previously tested) to be sure it wasn't my fault of some kind when creating MPQ file. Still nothing while MPQ loads up as i can see other things coming from it, just not my edited map. This is just too simple to make a mistake. So it must be ignoring the ADTs or magically reverting to their "original" content. Is that even possible?

Correct me if i'm wrong but when the name is patch-z.mpq then it loads last, right? So edited ADTs should overwrite what is being loaded before them (original ADTs of same map). Thus it clearly should work. But it doesn't.

Or Ladik's MPQ Editor is simply broken and messed up somewhere.

Amaroth:
More likely explanation is that you have put your ADTs into wrong folder in MPQ. They must be in World/Maps/(name of map/.. directory.

Read this viewtopic.php?f=78&t=3571

Try that mpq editor instead and follow the instructions
