Unit Model problem - Thinker

Hi, i have this problem with Thinker when using the Locust swarm base ability. How can i stop it from transforming into the tank morph thingy.

What? Can you please clear your question thnx

erm, the problem is that when using model Thinker, and casting a spell called Locust Swarm, our Thinker unit will automatically transform to his Tank mode. How can we prevent that from happening?

Hmmm..... It might be the spell uses the alternate version of the caster, if I was right....

It uses an alternate version of the caster's animations.
It might be possible to avoid that by changing ability animations. If not, then there's nothing to do about it.

There's a solution. Edit the sequence manager of the model tinker remove the alternate then save it as a new one

I'm pretty sure he's talking about the Model Editor.

Tools Section --> Modeling / MDX, MDL --> Then search for the Model Editor.

Or, just click this link: https://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/tools-560/war3-model-editor-62876/

so... we'll need an external program for this?

Ofcourse. It may seem hard, complicated and blank at first but when you open it regularly, you'll feel more comfortable =))

Can't he remove the animation tag via triggers? Or when he casts the ability trigger it so it plays tinks spell animation?

Animation - remove animation tag "alternate"

When the effect of the ability is started.
