SEMPQ with MPQDraft -- Issues

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to create a self-executing MPQ (SEMPQ) using MPQDraft, however I'm running into some problems.

 

Here's what I did:

 

1) Inserted a custom .grp file into StarDat.MPQ using WinMPQ, and saved it

2) Loaded MPQDraft, and created a custom EXE from my modded StarDat.MPQ

3) Ran this EXE from the StarCraft directory (where StarCraft.EXE is)

 

Here's the error I get:

 

Data File Error

Starcraft was unable to open a required file. If this problem persists, try

uninstalling and reinstalling Starcraft using the program "SETUP.EXE" on the

Starcraft CD-ROM.

 

The problem occured while trying to load a file

arrmapdata.dat

The program issued a command but the command length is

incorrect.

Any ideas?

It's pretty self explanatory.

I would start with reinstalling the game, if that doesn't work then verify that all the files are in the correct folders.

Well, my StarCraft.MPQ does contain arr mapdata.dat , so if it is self explanatory then I don't see how...

What does it mean? How do you fix it?

It's obviously not self-explanatory to him. He's asking for help, not confirmation that he doesn't know it. :-/

Fixing it depends on what you changed to cause the problem..
