How Do I make a unit mount another unit?

[WerBackIII]

OK, I heard it could be done, but never heard how. My best try: making a transport kodo.

Basicly, I need the Pandaren brewmaster and the Spirit Walker on Kodos.
But I need different types of Kodos. So please no metamorphosis(if there IS an another way, if not- say bout metamorphosis!)

There is a mounting spell in the spell archive.

Ill search it and give you a link... otherwise search it yourself

 

[Ghost765]

well i dont know if this will work since ive never tried it... and if it does work it might look really cheesy and dumb
well anyways on animals there's an attachment point called "mount" so u just make an attachment with the model file of the units you want and just slap it on.
dont kno if it'll work or not but it's worth a try

 

[WerBackIII]

I searched - no.


I also think (if I remember) that mount IS FOR the animals (mean like ataching smthing to the Kodo in Kodo Rider unit), so no chance!

Thanx for the help, however! I'll try!

Actually i remember a night elf ability mount hippogryph. If I am correct it contains values as: mounted unit and unit result so give a try to this one and don't waste too much time using such a mysterious spell

Easy to make but it looks ugly.

 

[Hawk07]

Well if you think it's ugly try making a model in a modelling program that will connsist of the units you want. I don't know what else to say...

What do you mean?


Also, how to put up new spells (a little OT)

 

[Hawk07]

There's an ability that you choose what unit to mount and so, so...

 

[Warlord_HU]

Do you mean such a mounting?

(I had a bit time and i wanted to see how does an Mountain Giant look out whit a Druid on hes head. )

 

[Hawk07]

Yeah that's what I mean! Like it?

 

[WerBackIII]

How is called this abilitie?

 

[DesKaladA]

To Awnser the question of how to fix the ugly
there needs to be a anamaiton called mount
then it needs to be linked by a trigger to the spell

 

[Rui]

It is easy to do that. You just need to use the Create Special Effect action, select Units, and choose Druid of the Talon. You attach it to the head, and you're done. If you need details, I'll gladly show you.

 

[Warlord_HU]

Easy to make without any trigger. (just add this ability to the normal ability of the unit)

List of attachments:

overhead (floats over the unit's head, but doesn't sway with the head as it animates)
head (sways with the unit's animation)
chest
origin (usually at the base of a unit's feet)
hand
foot
weapon (for heroes)
sprite (for buildings)
medium (for buildings)
large (for buildings)


Attachment Point Modifiers
left
right
mount (for mounted units)
rear (for quadrupeds)
first (for buildings)
second (for buildings)
third (for buildings)
fourth (for buildings)
fifth (for buildings)
sixth (for buildings)
rallypoint (for buildings)

Yes, but this will unlearn all hero's abilities!

 

[Ghost765]

whats a mountain giant?
sorry, i only have reign of chaos

 

[Eleandor]

the mountain giant is basically the "tauren" from the night elves. A strong unit you can only make when you made the shop-building (the additional building in TFT)

Basically, it's the unit you see in the screenshot, without the druid of the talon on it.
