Ehhh.... please do avoid talking in Tagalog in public threads like this... o_O

And I cant seem to understand your problem? What do you mean by that? What are you trying to replace? The Build Icon for each race? If yes, Hera has answered it :b

  • Untitled Trigger 001
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit enters Region 000 <gen>
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Special Effect - Create a special effect at (Center of Region 000) using Abilities\Spells\Human\ThunderClap\ThunderClapCaster.mdl
or you could use this for attaching to unit:

  • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the overhead of (Triggering unit) using Abilities\Spells\Other\TalkToMe\TalkToMe.mdl
But dont forget to remove them through this:

  • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)

http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/spells-569/lightning-bomb-v-1-0-2-a-235336/
but i don't know how to import and use this on my TD map. :goblin_cry:
can u help me by giving some instructions ?

Download it, open the map in World Editor and copy the triggers used and paste it at your map. Include also on copy/pasting objects in Object Editor to be sure nothing will be missing in the trigger also you must turn on Create Unknown Variables first so copy/pasting of trigger will work.

No you dont need to go there and spells here in Hive are in w3x format because the spells are in a test map, you just need to copy/paste the trigger used to manipulate the spells in the test map itself.

To give you an exact info:
  • Download spell here in Hive and put it in your Maps folder
  • Open that map in World Editor and go to the triggers
  • Copy all the triggers that are related to the spells and required to make the custom spell work
  • If possible, also the custom units, abilities, and buff used in the spell, copy them all too if there are
  • Now put them in the map and see if they work

Additional Note:
  • Make sure you have the "Create Unknown Variable turn on so when copy/pating map. variables will work properly in the map.
