How to use attachments?

[tekkvicious]

HOw do I use attachments?

 

[Sopho]

Attachment points do you say?

You don't use them, they are basically specific " points " for a unit or structure.

Overhead
Head
Chest
Left hand
right hand
origin
left foot
right foot

When doing spell arts in object manager these points may be mentioned to specify where the spell art goes on the caster or unit.

for buildings you need


sprite 1 till 7

 

[Sansui]

No capitals if you dont beleive me try useing Hand Right instead of hand right.

That confused me for awhile and made me angry for a week.

 

[rtm2]

[marton100]

[Sopho]

Use the special effects trigger.
Attach the model to unit with the attachment point.

 

[marton100]

sorry have never done dis bevore i don't understand

 

[RaZoR]

use the specialeffect function:
specialeffect - create a specialeffect attached to the left hand (or right hand) of "yourunit" using "spearmodel"

 

[marton100]

where is the special effect button

 

[RaZoR]

it's not a button. use the trigger editor. or create a dummy ability which has the specialeffects

 

[marton100]

cant you plz make them toghether for me plz
i dont get it at al

 

[Sopho]

Hmm, your trigger skills are abit low.

Go to trigger editor.

Make a new trigger. (top small paper icon)

1. The Event is your choice.

2. The Condition is your choice.

3. Actions - Create Special Effect on unit
Follow what it says below the action trigger.

 

[marton100]

now there is standing:
create a special effect attached to the right hand of peon 0001<gen> using war3mapImported\lanceb urukhai.mdx
but nothing is happening

 

[Sopho]

You need a event.

 

[marton100]

what kind of event(sorry have never done this bevore)

 

[Sopho]

For a simple one, try:
Event - Time Elapsed
Elapsed Time is 1 second

So its just one second delay then your special effects action activates.

 

[Megaman_Zer0]

Do Map Intilization for the event

 

[IrAiNhEll]

Attaching weapons

What type of event im stumped aswell?

 

[Detrivus]

Just put Map Initialization as the event and the unit will have the weapon attached once the map starts. Or the event could be when the unit is made, or when the unit picks up a certain item, etc.
