Compatibility for 1.26a #30

Open styla01 opened 1 month ago

styla01 commented 1 month ago

Hello, I followed with interest this topic because I have the same problem, I use only version 1.26.a: https://github.com/speige/WC3MapDeprotector/issues/29

My big request is if you can make a patch for 1.26a, because many of us stayed on old school w3. Or is there a way to convert from Reforge to 1.26a? In my case it is a map from 2012-2014, made for 1.26a and does not open in Reforged.

Please help

You could try this tool to downgrade the deprotected reforged map down to older versions of warcraft. https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/map-adapter.326456/

My tool always deprotects as reforged format, even if the original map was designed for an old game version, so that's why this is necessary.

Maybe in the future I could consider an option in my tool to allow you to specify outputting the deprotection in any version of warcraft.

Thank you for your reply. I wanted to try but unfortunately in the deprotected map there are not all the necessary files: https://github.com/Drake53/War3App/blob/master/src/War3App.MapAdapter/PathConstants.cs My opinion is that using this application to bring the map back to 1.26a may cause errors and complicate things. Best and clean way, as you said is to save it directly from WC3MapDeprotector.
