Priorities?

What do the ally priorities mean? Usually you make allies in the forces tab...

And now the ally priorities have changed mysteriously on their own! Usually, if you leave it alone, everyone has high priorities on everyone else...but now each player has like one or two random priorities to some random players! I haven't touched anything in it, and everything is at "defaults"! Do they mean anything?

Thanks.

Im not sure really..

Thats something thats useless since if teams are unlocked then.. you ally who u want.... or if the teams are preset there are no allies... Just donht bother with it....

I cant even USE the WorldEditor because when I try to go into it, it just restarts my computer!! What should I do???

 

[Ghost]

when giving units different unit/hero abilities, is it possible to select the slot that they go in eg. heal goes in the bottom left corner when you play the game, is it possible to put it in the bottom right?

 

[US-Playboi-US]

As for Ultima You should probably reinstall warcraft

As for Ghost it is possible but... you have to have alot of experience with the spell editor since the spell location is in the spell itself...

I've already reinstalled WCIII a few times, but it still doesn't work. Is there anything else I can do?

 

[Nite_Stalker_24]

i would like to know where to get the map editoe plz tell me. thanz

It should come with your WCIII CD. You'll need DX8.1, and to run it nicely you'll need a strong PC.

On the map editor, my map seems complete but when I test it and go to the build screen for my worker (peasant, but in my version worker) it shows a man's face and when you scroll over his face it says tool tip missing, what does this mean?

 

[US-Playboi-US]

Well... go in the unit editor and go to teh unit ur trying to build or train.... and find the boxes labeled Tooltip, Advnced Tooltip fill those in according to what u need..

Tower Defense Map

I'm working on a tower d map and got almost all the way through it. I am having a very strange problem with building my towers. I can't get the builder dude to complete a building that wasn't originally a tower. For example, I use the watch tower template to create a Hell Caster like in one of the tower d maps. All I change is the icon and model. When I try to build it gives it the initial 10% life and then the worker stops. The building never gets done.

I even tried importing another working tower d map's units and it does the same thing. Is there something I have to do to make it buildable?

Thanks,
Stucco

I got the builder to work, not sure exactly what I did but now I have a new problem. Like everyone else I want an ice tower and a frost tower. The frost tower and ice tower both do little damage, but slow entire groups of enemies with frost breath. I have frost breath on each of the towers, with no additional abilities. The towers do not slow down enemies though. I have the area of effect set high, the area of effect targets set to ground air debris, and I know the towers are hitting a lot of people because early on lots of people die from them. Can anyone tell me how to actually make them slow down guys?

How can I make a character chooser like In the warchasers map. You know, at the start you are a wisp and you move your wisp onto the circle in front of a hero and then you are the hero.
