Hide Heroes portrait

[Majin]

Straight to the point: is there any way to hide a hero's portrait (which doesn't involve changing a unit's ownership) through a trigger?

Possible ways: 1. Removing the alpha mask from the User Interface. 2. Editing the model portrait of a unit.

Through a trigger, not sure.

duh, sorry...i didn't explain myself, my bad

with "portrait" i meant the icon on the upper left part of the UI (the one you can click to select the hero), not the "speaking 3d portrait"

Go to the object editor.
Select the hero whose icon you wish to hide.
Go to the value "Stats - Hero - Hide Hero Interface Icon" and set it to "true".

You need to change unit's type with some kind of transformation spell.

I fiddled a bit with SetReservedLocalHeroButtons(integer), but that didn't seem to help (I tried going from -50 to +50).
It appears you will need to change the hero, unless anyone else can offer a better solution.

Yeah I don't think you can do it via trigger. I would use two heroes.

Don't you have to put the hero raw code into the parameter? For example SetReservedLocalHeroButtons('H000')
