I'M BACK with another soultion to this horrific problem.. See, I was about to cancel my halloween special because I had to work trough 2 computers to first capture characters in one program on my XP and Mapviewer on Vista + transferring every files trough a disk...


I also did the other way around, by changing map names to make mapviewer work, but then modelview screwed..

NOW. This was very random, I was about to open modelviewer (the "Alfred" update) but instead opened the mapviewer (Alfred) in my main WOTLK WOW map... AND IT WORKED.

Because I had "Mywarcraftstudio"open at the same time! I tried opening the modelview and mapview + WCS and it worked PERFECTLY. When I closed WCS Map started to crash. So the solution is, keep your WCS window open on "common".mpq. That's all.

NORTHREND IS NOW AWAIABLE ON MAPVIEWER.

Idk if any one of you knew it but I wanted to share this anyways n_n


HAPPY MACHINIMATING.

Haha I tried checking it again and again and it worked for me n_n Just keep Mywarcraftstudio open while opening the Mapviewer in your main folder.

I can't get it to work though : /
Might be because I have a laptop instead of a desktop..

I've got a laptop lol-

You know what I tried opening it without WCS and it worked. HOWEVER the version you should be using is the "Alfred" update.. If you're using another one it might not work??
Hmm

You can also use the hybrid cake update, it has practically no bugs and it works with Wotlk. (Modelviewer)
You can find it here

I actually downloaded both new model and map viewers on the computer with WOTLK and both work fine for me :) (first time for everything I suppose)
