I don have to say anything, wolver already did.

BUT ANYWAY HAI!@!

Well.... as u can see, Im new here. im having problems with making a map that im on it since July (i think).

My problem is simple and a bit noob: I cant import models! they just doesnt appear at the Import File when I active it and go to the paste of my models (all downloaded from here).

another thing: I am looking for a program (2 would be awesome) to protect maps. Thx for all!





-------------If u noticed, im trying to learn english, I'm not american or british. Sorry about mistakes!--------------------------

 

[kiraly28]

Thanks guys for all ur support and u guys' warm welcome. As ragingspeedhorn said, i didn't capitalise every word...lol anyway and thanks to Wolverabid for ur advise. Also, Conconnor or sumthing sry i forgot to import models, make sure ur model is in <<Name Of Model>>.mdx form, and to import, open Import Manager in the World Editor, and go to the location of ur model. Import it and u do not need to change the path for the model. If there is a skin for the model, its either Textures\<<Skin Name>> or just delete the war3imported thingy. If it doesnt work, you can reply me again here. Also plz reply if u guys have the Draenei Paladin model.



Ok, to protect ur map, im not 100% sure but u dnt need a program I heard. You just have to import a empty file and change its path to something that I forgot you can check from TheHelper.net or other sites because im not 100% sure its at TheHelper.net. Hope this will help ya with ur map.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Capitalise, I was meaning that you started every word with a capital letter.

And don't double post, thanks.

 

[/Conconnor/]

Thanks guy. Ill try to do that to import my stuff.

My problem was that the importing files doesnt appear.lol.

But, what was that about protecting?Its just cause I cannot launch a map before protect it.... Thx for the help

Hi Kiraly28 and welcome to the Hive

the Map Type of your map is AoS(Aeon of Strife) and im working on a map of the same type

the Random Storm Bolt trigger goes something like this

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
• Condition
  • (Ability being cast) Equal to YourSpell
• Actions
  • Set Point = (Position of (Casting unit))
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Random 5 units from (Units within 500.00 of Point matching ((((Matching unit) is A structure) Equal to False) and ((Owner of (Matching unit)) Not equal to (Owner of (Casting unit)))))) and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Unit - Create 1 Dummy for (Owner of (Casting unit)) at Point facing Default building facing
      • Unit - Add Storm Bolt(Dummy) to (Last Created unit)
      • Unit - Order (Last Created unit) to Human Mountain King - Storm Bolt (Picked unit)
      • Unit - Add a 2 second expiration timer to (Last Created unit)

there are 2 things you should know about this trigger though
1. It will cast Storm Bolt(Dummy) on 5 random Enemies within 500 Range of the Caster, not the Point of where the caster wants. To change this, simply replace the Set Point = (Position of (Casting unit)) with Set Point = (Target point of ability being cast)

2. This trigger is not Leak Free. Learn more about Memory Leaks and why they are so bad in the Things That Leak thread.

If you need further help, post it in one of the help zones and people will hopefully help you

 

[kiraly28]

Thanks...

Thanks RazorBrain for your wonderful GUI trigger for multiple storm bolt altho u mentioned its not leak free lol. Oso, must i use the same way to slow multiple units? I mean use ur method and just that i giv dummy unit the slow ability? Thanks anyway diaox.

 

[Razorbrain]

well, on the slow thing, it will actually depend if you want to Slow random units in an area, or all units in an area

if you want to slow ALL units in an area, just use Thunder Clap

My New Featured Hero!!!

Hi guys heres my new featured hero using the Demon Knight model(the one with the purple flames head).
Strength based Hero.
Ability1(Dummy)-Spiritual Block(Suggest new name thx)
Basically it is just sumthing like lightning shield to work as a combo with custom models to make it look cool so i wont explain on tis.

Ability2(HeavilyTriggered)Spirit Burn
It is sumthing like immolation but stronger.(Not balanced yet)
When it is activated, absorbs tons of mana and deals part of the hero's life to units in 500 radius around it. it takes part of the damage as well.(So tt it is nt gay spell)

Ability3(SimplyTriggered)Heat Up
Passive ability.
Deals part of movement speed as bonus damage(magic).
5/10/15/20% of movement speed.

Ability4(SimplyTriggered)Forgotten Name lol wil remember soon...
Passive ability.
When a unit it attacks has life below 50% of its max life, the hero will deal part of its life(nt max) to it.
2/4/5% of current life of hero.

Plz giv ur comments asap as i need ur ideas to continue working on my map. New hero ideas are welcome in this post.

 

[Razorbrain]

maybe make a thread in the Map Development zone and release a full scaled information about the map? More people will get thier attention on the map and give suggestions and such.

if you do that, i must give you a tip before you start. Since you are making a AoS map, don't involve the name Dota in either the Topic Name or the description, since many people around here dislikes Dota. Maybe say( in the description) that it is a AoS map, like DotA, "Insert name here" and "Another name here" if you know any other AoS maps.

Example : "My map is an AoS map(like DotA, HoSK and EotA)"

Good luck on the map by the way
