Lacerate, Melee FX

[Hazop / Sarven]

Nice Attachment to make it look like someone is bleeding

 

[Kyrbi0]

This looks very interesting. Will have to check it out.

Bring it on!

 

[General Frank]

Please add a proper bone, a proper collision shape and some sound effects to the models.

This model previously did have a bone, but it had prevented the model from moving, could you advise me how to fix this? The sound effect I can go add, but do particle FX need collison shapes?

 

[General Frank]

Just add a blank bone to the helper and move the particles accordingly onto it.
Well, collision shapes would be nice, but are not that important for an effect. I though that mapper might need it for a cinematic so they can select it more easily.

 

[Veronnis]

Bone added.

 

[Hazop / Sarven]

Bone added.

How do I use this? I want this effect to happen when for ex: Halaberdier Stabs a Chaos Marauder

Also can u make a version with no sound?

Of Course Hazop, my original had no sound. I'll upload a soundless version to the site tomorrow.

To use the effect its really easy, the effect is intended to be placed on the victim. So when the manuever is cast, set the Special Effect Target to Lascerate.mdx, then set the attachment to chest and attachment points to 1. If you want to add a buff so the unit continues to bleed make an ability with a buff that uses the special effect Lascerate.

 

[General Frank]

You can have both - a version with a sound one without. Just add it when updating this model.

Art - Special? and on the unit? or Attachment?
also by this ex: Halaberdier Stabs a Chaos Marauder I mean attacked not ability

 

[General Frank]

A nice custom combat model effect. Works in-game and performs quite well.
Good job.

• For Hazop
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Attacked unit)) Equal to Fel Orc Raider
    • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Swordsman
  • Actions
    • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the chest of (Attacked unit) using Lascerate.mdx
    • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
    • -------- You may ask: Why destroy the special effect? This will remove it from the game after playing its animation, causing your game to use less of your computer resources, which since a halberdier may make many attacks would be important. --------

Here you go bud! Just substitute the units I used in the trigger with your own.

Oh god! Thanks you so much!

I just realized you need attacking unit as well... RIP

(Edit) Veronnis in my map go to "Blood And Gore!" in the triggers, it dosent seem to appear..

Hey Hazop, it appears I have made a mistake. I had told you to destroy the special effect, but this one has an invisible death animation meaning it makes it not work. Try again, but without the destroy special effect part. Obviously you will need to destroy the special effects. But skip that for the moment and see if it pops up. If it does that's great, let me know and I'll make you a personal version that will work when you destroy it.

Yeah it works but sadly I have to do this process for every unit. thanks

 

[Veronnis]

Not Neccesarily. If you want your Halberdier to make the effect regardless of which unit it attacks then merely remove the condition for which unit the enemy needs to be.

 

[Kyrbi0]

By the way it's "Lacerate"

 

[Veronnis]

By the way it's "Lacerate"

Hmm. Would you look at that.

 

[sankentyosu]

Could you add a third option which works when you destroy the effect instantly please?

 

[Hazop / Sarven]

Veronnis the Gore effect works well but only with vanilla models due to the fact of how your "Death" Animation isn't really there. Cause of this when I use Lacerate effect after the unit is long dead the effect is stuck there

 

[Veronnis]

Could you add a third option which works when you destroy the effect instantly please?

Option added. Please let me know if it works according to what you were looking for. I didn't have time to test it in game.

 

[WhiteFang]

This is BLOODY useful

 

[Veronnis]

Haha, love the choice of word. I'm glad you like it! I have a lot of assets from my RPG I'm making, but I've only made them for my specific scenarios so I haven't converted most of them to uploadable hive submissions atm.

 

[JimmyJoJameson]

Gorgeous. It's an absolute pain to make good looking and visually "non-magical" abilities, and this one goes a long way in alleviating that.

 

[Krakenn99]

This looks very good, I've searching for models like this for a long time, might use it for my map.

Thanks! Hopefully I'll get some more out soon, the new patch changes for warcraft 3 have left me unsure of the best way to make things lol.

 

[KILLCIDE]

Exactly what I needed! Thanks.

Only thing I recommend changing the file names from Lascerate -> Lacerate

How is it you got him to change?? xD

 

[KILLCIDE]

He changed the bundle title, but not this
