Need help w H4til

[rakne fne]

I just downloaded Slava's H4util program. I want to extract a c-like file of my map, then edit the file and put it back into the map.
I can't seem to get it to work. I have placed the H4util.exe in the Heroes4 map, and runs H4util -p test.h4c (mapname is 'test'), but it can't find it. The map is also in the H4util directory.

What do I do wrong?

I've used the H4 util a lot!! But I have never extracted maps from a campaign with it. I didn't even know you could. You can't extract the maps normally like with H3C?

I meant extracting the scripts from the map, it's a c-like file where you can edit it and put it back.
I just can't make it work. It's probably something simple I've overlooked.

I'm making a quest hut where you can gamble like the slot machines where you get jackpot if you get 3 of a kind of artifacts - like in WOG. It's easier to use copy and paste in the H4util file, I guess..

Yeah. The scripting part of the H4 util is real confusing. I agree. Which is probably why I have never used that part of it. I usually just seek out help from other H4 mapmakers who know scripting than on the H4 util.

I found out now, by using the FAQ here about H4util. I added the commands on the properties of a shortcut on my desk.

I noticed the H4util can't read the script LESS THAN OR EQUAL, it translate it to GREATER THAN OR EQUALS when I take the scripts back to the map.... anyway it was a help on the quest I made. I'm already planning a new map, even though my latest - A Kingdom of Mortals - hasn't been released yet... hehe.

@rakne or anyone...

I found out now, by using the FAQ here about H4util.

Where? I searched the Forum topics for FAQ & H4util and only found this page. I went to the Celestial Heavens main site, and only found a NewsSearch which didn't produce any results. I don't see how to search for stuff on the Celestial Heavens site.

Am I missing something really obvious...?

so long time ago, cant remember now, sorry.
