Adding Fire animation to A unit

[MN Lahmar]

Hello, how can i add a fire to a part of my model with that Clouds8x8 crap? I mean like Chaos Hellscream eyes or Kil'jaeden. I added a particle emitter to the bone and set all the values like the ones in Hellscream but i got nothing

Post your model or a screenshot of the node tree as well as the settings on the particle. It's hard to tell what the issue is from this description.

there is a tutorial which explains how to add burning animation on war3 model editor

here's what does the tutorial say:

Open up War 3 Model Editor
Open the MPQ Browser from the menu Windows -> MPQ Browser
Open War3.mpq from the menu File -> War3.mpq
Find the Mountain King model under Units\Human\HeroMountainKing
Double-click on HeroMountainKing.mdx to load it

Find the Textures\CloudSingle.blp texture in the MPQ Browser
Right-click the texture and select Use As Texture (unless it already exists).
Find the ReplaceableTextures\Weather\Clouds8x8.blp texture in the MPQ Browser
Right-click the texture and select Use As Texture.

Enter the Node Manager from the menu Windows -> Node Manager
Right-click outside any item and select Create Particle Emitter 2
A new particle emitter will be create d at the bottom of the list
Right-click the created particle emitter and select Edit Node
Give it a suitable name, like "Fire Emitter"
Press OK


Create another particle emitter the same way you did above.
Right-click outside any item and select Create Particle Emitter 2
A new particle emitter will be create d at the bottom of the list

Set the Segment Scaling values to 20, 40 and 20
Set all Start and End to 0
Set all Repeat to 1
Set the Rows to 1
Set the Columns to 1
Set the Life Span to 1
Set the Tail Length to 1
Set the Priority Plane to 0
Set the Replaceable ID to 0
Set the Time to 0.3

Now let's edit the second emitter to be a flame emitter.
