IT's.............. AWSOME!!!

 

[SoW]

Really good! Thanks!

 

[noobs_r_us]

I have 1.24 back at home would it work there???

 

[folfol322]

Thanks.. I need ıt.

 

[Lissan]

I like it, map looks better 5/5.

 

[InfernalTater]

Lol. Why is it that the original never gets any credits, and then when another person does the exact same thing many years later, they receive all sorts of praise?

This was done in 2004, long before this particular model was uploaded in 2009, yet this model has even more praise than the original.

I honestly don't see why this was approved in the first place, when there was already a Hero Glow model on hiveworkshop many years before, which is still here. The other one even has a lower file-size.

 

[Goblintrain]

Sweet, now i can finally give that fel warlock model the hero glow it so richly deserves!

 

[xyzier_24]

Cool and useful 5/5

Also, It's too bright and hurt my eyes.

 

[lazerg20555]

awesome

This is very useful 5/5 +rep

 

[ownlyme]

still works 5/5

 

[Nowow]

Still works like a charm.

 

[deepstrasz]

Very useful. 4/5.

 

[ILikeMacNCheeze]

A Hero Glow for "Origin" attachment.
I'll be happy if there's one for "Weapon" just like most of heroes on melee maps.

Amazingly done, even changes colour with the unit's customized colour

 

[Ravensong93]

I am facing the mentioned team colour problem. I am using a dummy unit for a global aura to give 4 different players the glow for all their units, since the units in my map are tiny and it helps greatly with visibility. But yea the colour of the glow is always red now. Anyone know a workaround or smth?

Edit:

Nvm, found it myself. For anyone interested:

Set the Event whatever you want, in my case Unit - A unit enters (playable map area)

Actions:
Unit - Change color of (Triggering unit) to Gray
Wait 0.10 seconds
Unit - Change color of (Triggering unit) to (Color of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))

The first color change ofc doesn't have to be gray necessarily but the 0.10 seconds wait is mandatory or else it won't work. Hope this'll help somebody out there.

Edit 2:

Oh, I forgot something. You'll need a separat trigger for this to work:

Events
Time - Every 0.10 seconds of game time
Conditions
Actions
Game - Set ally color filtering to 1

5/5

 

[DanmakuUmineko]

I always come back to this model when the time comes to make a custom hero. It's old and it never lets down.

 

[MageMarauder]

Still works well in Reforged =)

 

[Grish]

Still works well in Reforged =)

Please don't necro post. To use this model use the fountain of health health regen aura and make the target this model (make sure to change the aura's allowed targets and range). This spell allows TCd effects for some reason.

 

[cvc21]

very useful, thank you

 

[Tiaramix]

almost 15 years later you maybe are not even on the W3 scene anymore , wherever you are thank you for this resource you have no idea how much this has helped me

 

[AnsinPls]

Been looking for this, ty

 

[Gumberbunbder]

You are my son! my shinning one! My glowy star, above my car, you make me proud!

 

[SenPie69]

welp, unit needs to be manually tmc instead of matching for it to effect even 24 colored players slot

 

[JCarrill0]

I will say I have an issues with the HeroGlow effect, If I change my Color from player 1 red, to blue, The Aura is still red.

I find it works best if you stick this model on the Slow Aura ability in the Neutral Passive category. This doesn't show up in the command card, so it doesn't take up a button slot, and also changes color based on the player.

This didn't seem to work

I tried using a Trigger (fix), but after the unit does, the Glow is red once again.

• HeroGlow
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Peasant
  • Actions
    • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Triggering unit) using HeroGlow.mdx
    • Unit - Change color of (Trained unit) to (Color of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))

 

[JCarrill0]

Same problem.

An example of the issue i am having:
When you send the peasant to call to arms, the hero glow disappears, which is intentional since militia were not given the glow (on purpose) for testing. When the peasant goes back to work they regain their hero glow, however the glow looses its team color.

It's a simple method to show that when we try to create heroes that need the glow effect, but have different custom colors (player one who is red, chosen to be blue for example) will retain its original player 1 red color. (the glow, but the hero)

 

[JCarrill0]

Sane problem.

SOLVED!
