Meat Wagon Tracks/Mud Trail

[riptor7364]

Anyone know where this is being defined? The tracks left on the ground by the wheels.

Thought this was maybe a sharedfx thing but I can't find it

It's a footprint event object that is defined in the model file itself. You can use War3 Model Editor to change, add or remove event objects.

Nice, thanks for the quick reply. Here's a better question.. do you know of any units that leave a trail as an effect (outside of the model) that I can modify and replace with a texture.

That's basically the goal, my first thought was the vehicle tracks, but that may be overkill for what I'm trying to achieve here.

The recent patches have been kinda chaotic, so I'm not sure if it still works, but it was possible to overwrite the SLK files that define ground images (aka UberSplats) or footprints, to make custom ones.

What exactly are you trying to do?

Blood trail, like puddles of blood that go away after a second or two.

Blood splats that are left on the ground after units die are also spawned by event objects. Maybe you can find a suitable one in some of the standard models (though, you would have to reduce the duration).
