Ok I was approached by some members on here and asked to help them with servers.

I have a 90% working WCS 0.75 mod.

Loads with no errors
Players can connect
Does NOT crash at all ever
Shopmenu works PERFECT

things to do before release:
1. XP is not saving correctly, it saves while you play, it saves when map changes but upon disconnect reconnect there is an issue
2. There is still a glitch with skill proccing.
3. Need to recode some races to make sure all are functional (bug free) [Spoiler - I may replace al lthe original 8 races with new ones of my design from Warcraft 3]


Thats it, once I finish with problem number 1  number 2 shouldnt be too hard, number 3 will be easy.


THIS MOD WILL SUPPORT ALL OF YOUR CURRENT RACES~!!!!!




Major credit will be owed to:
Mattie, Freddukes, and Kryptonite

As soon as I can get it straitened out I will post it, Tomorrow is another day we made some good progress today.

I thought it wasnt saving but it did save - just not working.

I might just try sql and require it not sure

I got a request.
Once you finish up all the changes and make it work can you also make a better race handler so it doesn't lag and also make a restrict_map and restrict_team field for races.
Another thing I would also enjoy if you can do it make it subtract how many needed levels you need for a race you can't get yet like my EZ Racemenu.(So instead of it saying "The total level needed for this race is 400" lets say you were level 300 and it should be like "The total more levels needed is 100")

Necavi you are 100% correct.

I believe that the idea of this is really to release a working WCS, then work on updating later.

Thats why I said ("Once you finish up all the changes and make it work")

Dear Shidobu, I'm sure that once the mod is fully working, you will get plenty of time to fix these features u requested and release them to public download section (maybe as "wcs addons" or "extras"?) as you can perfectly eddit the files and you are for sure authorised as WCS TEAM member, I gues.


To Oddity TeacherCreature, special thanks for putting time into fixing wcs 0.75 for Orange Box, while your own standard server with War3Source is already running fine. It is good to see that volunteering is still happening around here!

Its better to use v.75 (from what I been told anyway)

.V77 has only one extra advantage I think: player_kill
Otherwise now effects are gone so its only for the better to fix the 0.75 core of wcs,
It can still be upgraded to .V77 by those who want to upgrade it, I think in a quite similar way, to how it was upgraded the first time.

Also the mod will work, however dont forget the lenght of lines is more limited so you'll have to add a few extra racealliases to fix some of ur skills.

The races will work just fine,
however some of ur longest skill lines you should add 1 extra racealias, due to the way Orange Box has another limit then the previous core had.

Btw if its possible to convert 0.75 into 0.77 database it has to be reverseable with a bit of extra coding by e.g. the WCS TEAM.
