Introduction

If you have a spell or two that you don't have time to make are unable to do it yourself, this is the right place for you!
You can describe your spell to us and we will make it for you, in either GUI or vJASS.
When we complete a request, it will be uploaded in the form of a demo map, which contains the spell(s) and an environment in which you can test it/them.
Important: Please read the "Making a Request" section below, to ensure your request is accepted the first time.

The Team

Mr_Bean - vJASS Requests
EliTE A.K.A. En_Tropy - GUI Requests
Daffa the Mage - GUI Requests
DotCa - GUI Requests
DivineLight - GUI Requests

Requirements

If you are wanting your request done in vJASS, you will need:
- JASS NewGen Pack (JNGP).
- The latest JASSHelper, which is included in the JNGP download (linked above).
- Most likely: bits of code written by other people which are used to assist in the spells (called libraries). These libraries will be included in the demo map, along with instructions on how to import them.

Clear instructions on how to import your spell(s) will be provided.
Feel free to ask us questions if you have issues importing the spell(s).

[Iconer]

nice ;D
how bout my req spel?

 

[Mr_Bean]

Yours is almost done. I just have to finish Enlightening Bow, and do a bit of testing. Should be done in a day or two.

 

[WindowsVistaSucks]

Lol these kinda threads are always needed but require way to much thinking and time. Any-ho here is spell I want. And I can work with vJASS perfectly so I wont have a problem with that.

Active - Lighting Jump
[Level - 1] The Pulse Feeder takes a 10 second delay to jump to a enemy dealing 2.5x more damage and stunning the target for 4 seconds.
[Level - 2] The Pulse Feeder takes a 10.5 second delay to jump to a enemy dealing 3x more damage and stunning the target for 4.5 seconds.
[Level - 3] The Pulse Feeder takes a 11 second delay to jump to a enemy dealing 3.5x more damage and stunning the target for 5 seconds.
~Cool-down 220/210/200


Oh and forgot to tell you. Lighting Jump will have no range limit. So you can jump any time you see a hero. During the delay a buff type model will appear above the unit you're about to strike. It will only be visible to you and your team mates. You can only target enemy units.

 

[Mr_Bean]

[Level - 1] The Pulse Feeder takes a 10 second delay to jump to a enemy

Does this mean that the hero is in the air for 10 seconds while jumping?

 

[WindowsVistaSucks]

Nah its like a blink strike except with lighting effects that gives you a feel that you're moving at the speed of lighting. And instead of a normal blink strike it wont only just deal extra damage.

Like you could make the hero's base high't higher for the spell. But we'll see. I'll draw a small graph of what I'm thinking.

edit: Okay added the picture.

 

[Mr_Bean]

Okay, cool. But is the target in the air for 10 seconds, or does it take 10 seconds to rise up?

EDIT: Also, what model are you using?

 

[banner_bg]

Can you modify this spell http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/spells-569/lightning-speed-laceration-1-09-a-178653/ so it works like this: each attack deals x1 of hero's strength. Also the spell should reduce the armor of the attacked unit by 5 for 5 seconds. I need only 1 level of this spell..

 

[Mr_Bean]

Yes, I can do this. Shouldn't take long!

Update: Completed!

 

[WindowsVistaSucks]

Lighting Revenant model. And the unit does not have to be in the air. Its just basically channeling on the spot. But do what you must to make it look good. Besides that thank you for the last spell request it came out the way I wanted it to. And so far I couldn't find any leeks.

+rep

 

[Mr_Bean]

Cool, glad you like it.

Okay, I will try to finish Lightning Jump.

 

[banner_bg]

Thanks a lot. I forgot to mention that I prefer the gui version, but this one should be ok too.

 

[Mr_Bean]

Oh okay. I'm not good with GUI anyway

Update:
Vista sucks - Lightning Jump uploaded!

Question: What happens if the spell is level 4, and the caster is only 600 distance from the target?

 

[defskull]

Question: What happens if the spell is level 4, and the caster is only 600 distance from the target?

I think that he wanted to say that max cast range is 600/900/1200/1500 and the jump count is 2/3/4/5 per level, am I right ?

Distance per jump should be calculated and divided by equally in-between the range

 

[Mr_Bean]

That's what I would have thought, but he says "each jump is 300 range".

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Subscribing. Tell me when its done.

 

[mckill2009]

at last, a thread that makes jass spells, subscribing and I'd like to help if it's needed...

 

[Caelez]

Question: What happens if the spell is level 4, and the caster is only 600 distance from the target?

Uhm.. then there will be lesser jump.
its like, if the spell is level 4,
A = casting unit, B = target unit
if A and B is 500 range away, and there will be 2 jump : 1 for 300 range and 1 for 200 range
is that possible to done with that?
BTW, thanks again.

 

[Caelez]

either this is acceptable

I think this would work best.

 

[Caelez]

Go on then~

something i want to change, the area of effect of Global Jump change from 300 to 500, cuz afraid there might not enuf space for 40 unit...

 

[Mr_Bean]

Don't worry. I make the code so that you can easily change the area of effect!

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Just asking again the progress. It says its 95% done.
Also, dont forget to comment the important functions!

Thanks either way.

 

[Mr_Bean]

The actual spells are done, I just have to comment out the code!

Sorry for the long wait.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Thanks a lot! Ill need to spread some rep first before I can rep you again...

 

[Iconer]

I already gave u rep, how to giv it again?

 

[Caelez]

how its goin? is everything fine?

 

[Mr_Bean]

@Caelez: Yup, just a bit busy at the moment.

Update:
Drunken Jackal - vJASS Demo Spells uploaded!
Iconer - Spell Pack uploaded!

 

[Iconer]

thnk u vry muc! i love it!

 

[Mr_Bean]

Great! Do you want anything changed?

I added a short cooldown to Lightning Arrow and Enlightening Bow because if it has 0 cooldown, it can cause bugs if the player casts it very fast.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Hey Mr.Bean, I have a question, kinda off-topic here though.
1. What is the variable type "thistype" and "this" for?
2. When should scopes be used and when should libraries be used?
3. What are those functions with .(name) for, like .deallocate()? What does .deallocate() do?
4. What is the . prefix for? I see you create a local variable called caster and you put a . before the word caster. What is it for?

Those are my only concerns now.
Thanks again.

 

[Mr_Bean]

I'm not too good at explaining things, but I will give it a shot!

1. "this" is just a variable name. "thistype" is an instance of the struct that it is used in.
2. Libraries are placed first in the map header and scopes are not. If you place your spell code in a library, you will have to state which other libraries it uses (library TestSpell uses TimerUtils, SpellEffectEvent etc.). It's up to you which to use.
3. .deallocate() can also be written as this.deallocate(). It is simply removing the struct instance from memory (when you're finished with it).
4..identifier is just short for this.identifier (as long as you used local thistype this = thistype.allocate()). If you used another name instead of this, then you must say name.deallocate().

Sorry for the bad explanation. I'm sure someone else can do a better job

humm.. there are some wrong at it
- can you make the Ulti Autocast?
- can you make the Ulti Damage ( armor Damage ) + The Hero damage
Thank you very much

 

[Caelez]

thanks, love it so much!

 

[Mr_Bean]

humm.. there are some wrong at it

- can you make the Ulti Damage ( armor Damage ) + The Hero damage
Thank you very much

- I have told you like 100 times that I CANNOT make them auto-cast!!!
- If you want, I can make the ultimate passive, or you click it and it lasts for 15 seconds or something. What do you want?
- I will fix the ultimate's damage.

 

[Iconer]

ok thank..
UPDATE: make the ulti armor damage multiplier attack damage + ( armor X 8/9/10 )

 

[defskull]

Bean, I just want to know why you can't make it Auto-cast ?

 

[Iconer]

why u pos on tis tread? n why u ask it? oh i know
u wan to join tis tread rigt?

 

[defskull]

Just curious >.>"

 

[Mr_Bean]

Bean, I just want to know why you can't make it Auto-cast ?

I'm not sure how to.

Technical Stuff

I had to make a missile system for the spell, because it needs to deal custom damage, involving the caster's armour.
If you use RegisterSpellEffectEvent, it doesn't detect casts made while auto-cast is enabled.
If you cast it manually, it works fine.
Any ideas how to solve this?

@Iconer: Must I make the spell passive or what?! Please answer my questions...

active..

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Try using the same trigger but base the ability of an Autocast spell.

 

[Caelez]

bean, ask you something:
a hero learn a skill A, the skill A provide passive ability, but when click on the skill A it will turn into skill B, then skill C, then back to skill A (B and C provide different passive ability). and when it turn into skill B or Skill C, then you learn skill A again, it wont appear another 1.
*skill B and skill C are not in the hero learning ability section.

is this possible to get it done?

cuz i try make myself, when i click A - Level 1, it turn into B - Level 1, and then when the hero level up, the skill A is Level 1 in the learning section, and when i learn it, i got both skill A and B Level 1, and i click the B twice, it turn into A, and then i got 2 of the skill A - Level 1.
