Mmmm...Okay – wings model attachment for item

[MsAlexis]

Alright. So I'm trying to make a trigger so if item X is picked up then it will add wings to the chest (since there is no back) and if item X is removed it will destroy the attachment. Like always help is appreciated! Thanks!

Here you go: http://world-editor-tutorials.thehelper.net/attachments.php and make sure when you make the ability to give that ability to item then. If something is wrong, just tell

 

[MsAlexis]

Uhm. That didn't really help.. Sorry :/

Is the unit your attaching the wings to a custom model, or a warcraft model?

Some custom models may be missing the required attachement points which the wings need to "attatch" to the unit.

 

[BloodDrunk]

so you want it to add wings through the triggers? cuz it's not needed (can be done without triggers)

 

[MsAlexis]

I wish to add them through the triggers with items. And it's a custom model.

Add them with the item itself. The other way is adding them by adding an ability with trigger, which works worse than making the item have that ability.

I know, but how do you get it so when the item is dropped then the attachment is removed?

 

[BloodDrunk]

if you add the wings with the item, if your drop it, the wings will be removed automaticly

There must be something wrong with my trigger then, because it doesn't remove after the item is dropped.

There's no need for a trigger.

You create the ability and add the Attachment model, and add that ability to an item. The item by default will add the abilities within it to the unit, and remove them (with it's effects) when it's lost.

Same happens with Orb of Frost, Fire, Lightning, Darkness, and Corruption; an attachment is added to the unit weapon.

a note:
if u want destroy special effect via trigger what was attached to unit it have a dieing time, so example after u destroyed the wings then still there for ~5sec if u attached via trigger...

if i remember purgedfire told the solution, u can make a dummy bear form ability and when u remove the item what attached via trigger then u add a dummy bear form with trigger, order it and remove the dummy bearform ability, result will be ~instant special effect remove

if u add with setting the attachments in object editor (like example orb of fire) then it is instantly remove also when u lose the item from inventory (bad side if u make a rpg and u do more gear type then your invetory mostly allways will be full only with equipments :/)

i have the same question and thanks for the help
but what will happen if the unit get 2 items? like a sword and a bow will both models appear? and is there a way to change the attack animation of the unit with this item?
item = sword then attack 1 (melee)
item = bow then attack 2 (ranged)

make unpickable 2 weapon sametime, so if he pick 2nd one then drop it.
so if u want change to ranged then drop sword and only after that pick bow


OR

make quipment slot, have in spell section equipment system with spell book, with multiboard, full screen equipment system, where u have virtually equipment slot but that make a bit longer ur triggers


about attack animation if it is a good villager model then yes, not directly with item but this way:

Event: unit got a item
Action:
few if about do u drop it or keep and if the triggering unit is a villager or no because we dont want attach item if it is paladin example
then make if about items:
if it is sword then
custom script: call AddUnitAnimationProperties( GetTriggerUnit(), "lumber", true )
endif
//in this case the animation is lumber, at few villager this is the animation used for bow's but u can replace with that animation what u wanr
