Playing EXACT Animation..

[akrep_ve_su]

Ok; here is the problem. Whenever i make a unit play its certain attack animation ("Attack - 2" for example) it uses "any" of it's attack animations. (In other words; it uses a random animation that contains "attack" word. I tried this with both GUI and Object Editor and the results are same. Is there any way to get rid of that?

Use "attack-1" "attack-2" etc.

 

[MortAr]

Use Attack, 2 or Attack, 1 for the exact animation.
Example: Attack, Slam will play the Paladin's slam animation.

Do i write "Attack, 2" as single line in object editor; or "attack" and "2" as seperate so they will look like "attack, 2" after editing is complete.. Well i tried something like that with Blademaster's attack animation and it turned out hero casts bladestorm animation

Sometimes attack animations don't work on Object Editor fields. Try removing the Animation Names completely and use

• Trigger
• Events
  • Unit - A unit begins casting an ability
• Conditions
  • (Ability being cast) Equal to X
• Actions
  • Animation - Play (Triggering unit)'s Attack - 2 animation

or

• Trigger
• Events
  • Unit - A unit begins casting an ability
• Conditions
  • (Ability being cast) Equal to X
• Actions
  • Custom script: call SetUnitAnimationByIndex (GetTriggerUnit(), Y)

In the position of "Y" place a number and test it, until you find the Attack - 2 animation.

Disclaimer: The reason I used "Begins casting an ability" is because the animation is played almost simultaneously with the mana removal of the spell's mana cost.
