Title: [WotLk] [TALIIS QUESTION] - Taliis refuses to save WDTs.
Post by: Cutsforhugs on December 10, 2016, 07:05:13 am

I realize this might be considered a bad thread, but I have tried searching around, so I apologize if that's the case.

I've tried re-downloading Taliis to no avail.

Issue: Taliis won't save WDTs when using the "save as..." option. I tried using "save" only, but obviously that puts the file in the Taliis map. Despite failing to save a file in the correct folder, using "scan folder" will still make it search said folder, but it searches for non-existent ADTs.

For reference, it does work for me to just cut and paste it to the correct folder after using "save" and scan from there, but I'm curious if there is an easy fix for it. Only for the sake of convenience though!

I figured it maybe could have to do with administrator privileges, but trying to open "windows for dummies" as admin only produces errors unfortunately.

Back in the days I've been using Taliis for WDTs I've simply copied a WDT of a blizzlike map and re-made it in Taliis.

However, what I'd really recommend you to do, is simply not using Taliis, as its outdated and unreliable tool. Use either GruulMeWDT or Rius Zone Masher. GruulMe had more options, on the other hand, I've already met a user which had problem with new WDT created in GruulMe, so I'd definitely still recommend you to actually copy an existing and working blizzlike WDT, rename it and remake it in an editor.

For wotlk wdt creation it works fine.
Just use the version from my tutorial pack. There are many fuck up versions out there.
