This is where message boxes will appear telling you if the map is expansion only, or if it’s not a melee map because you did something wrong. Time to save! Save your map by going to File > Save As and saving the map into your warcraft 3 folder. Fill in this form with correct information and you’ll be ready to save your map.ġ4. what is your map missing now? Oh yah, a name! You can fix that by going to Scenario > Map Description.
#WARCRAFT 3 WORLD EDITOR PROFESSIONAL#
For most creeps, you probably want to have Chance set to 100%, the type set to random, and the level set to something reasonable (Ex: Level 1-2 item for easy creeps.) If you want to make your map really professional you can visit to check out the creep/item chart to see how blizzard does it.ġ3. Select the new Item Set and click the New Item button to open the Choose Item Window. Under the Items Dropped tab, select Use Custom Map Table and click the new set button. to do this I suggest that you hold shift and click on creeps of the same type to select them all at once and double click the selection to open the Unit Properties window. But wait, there’s more! You need to set the items that each creep drops. So you can select units to copy and paste them in other places on the map. To add multiple groups of the same units I suggest that you create one group and then click the selection brush icon in the World Editor toolbar or hit space. All units here are creeps so all you need to do to add them is find creeps with the correct level by clicking on them to display what level they are and click where you want them on your map. *Sigh* Anyways, to add creeps to your map go back to the Tool Palette once more and change with the Unit Palette selected, change the player to Neutral Hostile. Creep time! This might sound pretty fun but it’s actually my least favorite part about making maps. Repeat this step for any additional players.ġ2. You do not want it do disappear! Click where you want your player to start without the start location disappearing and click to set the location on the map. Notice that if you hover too close to a gold mine, trees or unbuildable land, the faded image of a town hall will disappear. Select it and position it near a gold mine. Under buildings the last building available is the start location for player 1. To add player start locations, go back to the Tool Palette and with Unit Palette still selected, change the race from Neutral Passive to Player 1. (Don’t worry, player name doesn’t matter, the colors are random, the race shouldn’t be changed to selectable, User controller can still be changed to a computer in warcraft, and the start locations should not be fixed.)ġ1. You probably already decided how many players you want on your map so for each player you need, change the Controller box from None to User, keep everything else the same, and hit OK. First, go to Scenario > Player Properties. Now that you have gold mines, you need to put start locations. The units under “Buildings” is what you will be adding to your map. You should now see different units than before. On the Tool Palette, change Terrain Palette to Unit Palette and for the other 3 boxes select Neutral Passive for the player, Neutral for the race, and Melee for the type. After you created your terrain masterpiece, we need to make neutral buildings. View > Grid > None and Advanced > View Entire Map. (Tip: To get a much better view of the map, go to Just click on the buttonsĪnd experiment a little to see what they do and you should be able to figure
