starhorn 1 Posted May 26, 2010 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? Share this post Link to post
XGhozt 410 Posted May 26, 2010 I would start with reinstalling the game, if that doesn't work then verify that all the files are in the correct folders. Share this post Link to post
starhorn 1 Posted May 26, 2010 It's pretty self explanatory. Well, my StarCraft.MPQ does contain arr mapdata.dat , so if it is self explanatory then I don't see how... Share this post Link to post

GhoztMan 219 Posted May 27, 2010 It's pretty self explanatory. It's obviously not self-explanatory to him. He's asking for help, not confirmation that he doesn't know it. Share this post Link to post
