Hello,
I would like to know how do I create frozen / sleeping monsters ?

For my current project I would like to create a frozen environment containing sealed monsters. These monsters should, obviously, not move and be like frozen. I will add the crystal model to make it look as if they are sealed / frozen / sleeping.

How do I create such an environment, containing non-moving unit models ?

I guess you can use doodads/destructibles as frozen units and change model to unit model.If that doesn't work try below solutions.

1)You can pause units via trigger ( +you can also stop their animations if pause unit doesn't already do that)

2)If your frozen units will not get unfrozed in game, you can make their owner neutral passive.

Hm, alright, thank you!

No, they won't be unfrozen, but I hoped there is a way to create a custom model / modify a model and import it to use it as a doodad.
I don't really like these trigger doodads, just personal feeling.

I think your solution should be possible, better wait someone with more knowledge.
