More help needed.....

Alright, another rather n00bish question...How do I make the terrain black, so nothing can go across? I seen some maps do this, so I know its possible. Also, I'm looking for people who could help me on a new open rpg, with a custom spell system... Any help would be appreciated!

black stuff:

goto the terrain palette, click 'boundary' under apply texture, start placing it, voila

Ooookay, another question...Can a ability's damage be changed through triggers? Im trying to change Chain Lightning's damage through a trigger.

Edit: So much questions...would Midi work as a song if I import it into a map with triggers setting it as music? Basically, would WC3 play Midi files.

try importing and playing, if it works then booyah.

if not, convert the midi to wav. Im sure there's a converter on google somewhere.

one more questions(I'm loaded with questions aren't I?) Is there any way to make maps bigger than 256x256 without the unlimited patch(cuz I heard it aint workin right), and if the unlimited patch is the only answer, is there a ETA on when its gona be done(for 1.18), or if its going to be done at all? And Im still confused to if I can change a spells damage via triggers. Also, is it possible to change the size of the map after you created it, or is it like once you create the map, the size is permanent kinda thing.

I don't think there is another way to set the map size bigger than 256x256. But why would you make it bigger? Is 256x256 not enouqh?

Another question..Is it possible to play a different music for a different player? I want like one player to hear a battle music, while the other player to just hear a normal music. So far, I tried everything I can think of, but it all failed. Please help

Custom Script: if ( GetLocalPlayer() == -->PLAYER CONDITIONS GO HERE<-- ) then
Play music
Custom Script: endif

i believe

Alright, Ill give that a try, thanks, and now, another question :oops: is it possible to remove items from heroes? Like I want to get rid of the blademasters blade, so when he starts, he has nothing, but later on, he can get stuff.

Raptor, I got a problem...I don't know how to actually use custom scripts, and how do I know who is "local player"? I have WEU so it has something called Local Player, but I just don't know how to use it. Sorry :oops:
