7 hero abilities?

[HappyTauren]

Is there ANY way for me to add 7 hero abilities to a single hero? i tried everything (i think)

To sidestep the default hero limits, consider using a spellbook and placing the extra abilities inside it. Be sure to assign the spellbook a different Base Order ID.

thx, but read carefully: HERO abilities! spellbooks only contain unit and item abilities... and i know i could create copy of spell, and uncheck "hero ability" but thats much work since i have 22 heroes X 5 spells each...

It's possible: NOTD AM has it

You can have a hero able to learn 7 spells in the editor but ingame the select spell system only displays 5 of them.

Consider switching to a trigger based ability system where you learn the spells using a full screen display like seen in "Heroes and Empires II alpha" or using a dummy unit with all the wanted hero abilites at lvl 1 and everytime one of them is clicked it lvls up the normal spell on the hero it self.
When I refer to the normal spell I mean a non-hero spell which is increased in lvl and should techinaly have the same effect as it's hero equivlent.

I recomend idea 2 since idea 1 requires alot of imports and some people think the trackables cause splits in multiplayer if not programed properly.

WELL, THATS ALL OKAY, but i thought to do it without triggering...

Well, in the map Molten Core you can have 7 spell via multiple trigger you start with 2 ability to learn, each directing you to an another page of ability to learn. But the trigger look too hard for me... You can still get the map and look at it, it's not protected...

Yep triggering it's definitely possible. The only way you could get it to display all of them is if you remove one of the normal buttons(i.e.) the attack command.

actualy, i want one to be learned at the ultimate level (100) so it will replace "learn hero abilities" button

...and btw i dont want to use triggering (since i have 22 (maybe will add more) heroes...)

You can add any spells than you wish in the Hero Abilities, but when he learn, it will probabily not appear to be used.
Open the OE in the ability section and change the X and Y button positions.

I added 7 abilities with weu. those were hero abilities, not unit ones. but hero can learn only first five of them. UNDERSTOOD?

 

[Lunatechnick]

well, i think if you had it like dota or summat and make it so that you buy your spells you'd get 7

 

[MetalWarrior]

I say that you need a spell book spell, that will give three lesser ability. Have 3 normal ability and have the strong ability (Ultimate)

read.. i dont want triggers in my map (for spells)! so, how do i add spell to spellboook? i know, i add it in object data, then just enable it when needed, and use leveling system... thats not that hard. BUT since there are 25+ heroes with 7 abilities, this is, abit too much...

 

[MetalWarrior]

Ok then it would be easier... Make him start with 2 normal ability. And give him 5 hero ability needing high level to get... Simple!

 

[Lunatechnick]

i think it'd only take 1 or 2 triggers

 

[HappyTauren]

yeah, brainer, and that triger would be like "if ability being cast equal to Learn Flamestrike, than set level for Flamestrike on casting unit to level of flamestrike on casting unit +1"

and do that for every single spell!!! (thats 25X7)

 

[Lunatechnick]

ahhhh i see, my map for the jobs and sound commands allready contains about 100 seperate triggers XD

I didn't mean that! You can have a hero start with 2 normal ability. But I didn't mean that they need to have level... Those 2 ability would be basic and the other would be with levels.

... well anyway, if you REALLY want to have 7 hero ability with no trigger. Then I suggest you to get a program that I don't remember the name and that cost a LOT. Then open with it the WcIII Data base and modify the maximal number of abilities you can have and that, I don't know how. But still, it's your only hope to have 7 HERO ability non triggered...
