Special Effect Problem

[Mage_Goo]

Well, I create a spell and hit some problem with special effect.

1. If special effect attached to unit with 100% transparency, that special effect will get transparent too. How can i prevent this?

2. If Special effect attached to small unit, that special effect will small too, how can i prevent this?

Any GUI and JASS solution is accepted.

2) Art - Scale Projectiles -> False.
1) I think the only solution is a dummy unit with the model of the effect, being moved to the position of your unit every 0.03 for example seconds.

Set the modelpath of the dummy to .mdl

Pharaoh_'s got it right. Although it may look a bit choppy.

2) Art - Scale Projectiles -> False.

Now I test it
EDIT: Doesn't work.... The effect still small depend from unit size...

1) I think the only solution is a dummy unit with the model of the effect, being moved to the position of your unit every 0.03 for example seconds.

The dummy won't fit if I want the effect in Weapon or another attachment point.

Anyway, thank you!

squiggy is correct... try what he said. The unit wont show in WE but the SFX will

When I change it to .mdl, I can't even attach a single Special Effect on it

Get the dummy unit, you can attach effects to it and rescale them with it. I dont have it, but I'm sure theres more then enough spells that have them, since its OK to use.
