Attaching help

[davidoleg]

I sow how to attach but I need help in the guild says I have to make dummy
ability can someone please tell me how thats all thank you.

u can make a attachment based on a abillity i made this work one time but then i couldnt anymore hope im saying this right: first you download the model u want or find one u want inside wc3. then u make a new abillity and give it a name, make the abillity on ... armor bonus or any other should be okay. change the bonus to 0 or what u would like it to be. change the "art - target" to the model you want. now change the "art - target attachment point 1" to... lets say you want your weapon in the left hand. you shall write "left,hand" in the same field but when u enter it will be in two fields. now change the "Art - Target Attachments" to 1 and change "item abillty" to false so you can add it too a unit. Add the abillity to a unit and that should be it for now

note: if this didnt work i think u should check out www.thehelper.net they got some great stuff for world editor and i think it was there i learned to attach stuff... hope it works

Could you be a more little specific?

A dummy ability, is an ability you make, this ability do nothing. You use it, and nothing happens. You can make one for example, using roar, eliminating buffs, casting times, etc, and animation if you want.

You use this, to launch a trigger (Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability), then you compare it with the skill you want(so when the unit finishes casting the ability you want the trigger will start).

edit:woops, i started writing when there was no answer

USE SEARCH BEFORE POSTING THREADS
You could find this if you have searched attaching

 

[shadow-twin]

Just do as i said ... if u cant find armor bonus its under item and "item - armor bonus +1" i think... and need_O2 is right plz search before posting thats actually a rule i think... but it said in every post under the start text...

Just look here! Attachment Video!

Always look here before posting about simple things like models, attachment, skins, ect.

 

[davidoleg]

I watched before that video Its too hard I mean I am not lazy I just read again the guild of shadow-twin I and I learned every thing I need

 

[Gilles]

How can a step by step video be hard? No offence.

 

[davidoleg]

look there I have to use many things like triqqets and its just I dont need so much and if didnt read before last post I sad and post now I know how to attach thats it and like you sad no offense thank you

 

[Just_Spectating]

for it to be a passive attachment, make an aura in a disabled spell book that gives no effects, and attachment points with the attachement models

 

[davidoleg]

I can do this with an item right?

 

[Just_Spectating]

~~~yes you can~~~

 

[Gilles]

Sorry, I didn't understand your question clearly.

2 Just_Spectating: dude, don't confuse the new guy!

2 davidoleg: note the sphere ability of the blood mage: it does absolutely nothing and has no icon (which is what you want), but it has attached models (those thingies rotating around blood mage). use a copy of that spell. no triggers needed.

as for icons, examine "orc battle standard". rexxar carries that stuff in campaign. when he picks it up, a big flag is attached to his back.

 

[shadow-twin]

lol just_spectating ... the skill will be passive (the guide i made) if its a hero (mostly) you just need to put it under "Normal abillites" and the weapon / attachment will appear when map starts oh and if you want the fire hands like in DotA do this :

make a new ability based on sphere like edge[d1] said... thanks edge ;D then you change the model to -unit missile- -archmage,black drake, centaur sorcerer and so on... then you change attachment targets to 2 if you only want hands and target attachment point 1 to (hand,left) in one field and (hand,right) in point 2 and also in same field... but if you double click on it again its in 2 fields and then you give it to the unit that needs it under (normal abilities) hope i helped you =)
