[Trigger] Question about Animation of units + Sound

[ProfessorZmurge]

Hello.
I am making some effect for my spell.
Well in that trigger for example:

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Begins channeling an ability
• Conditions
  • (Ability being cast) Equal to Example Ability
• Actions
  • Set LOL = (Position of (Casting unit))
  • Sound - Play MY SOUND <gen> at 100.00% volume, located at LOL with Z offset 0.00
  • Animation - Play (Casting unit)'s STAND animation
  • Unit - Create 1 Dummy Effect 4 for (Owner of (Casting unit)) at LOL facing (Position of (Triggering unit))
  • Unit - Add a 4.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)

Here:

• Animation - Play (Casting unit)'s STAND animation

How do I know which animations exist?
I know theres stand and attack, but what are the rest?
Well the specific animation I want is the morph (unit's morph)


Question about the sound?

• Sound - Play MY SOUND <gen> at 100.00% volume, located at LOL with Z offset 0.00

How do I add my own sound here?
I imported the sound, but it doesn't show up.
There are other sounds (Units Pissed) in the "Variable" Tab, so I though I have to make a variable for my sound, but I don't see and sound Variables for the existing sounds

Go the the sound editor, rightclick on the sound on the left and click USE AS SOUND.
That will make you use the sounds ingame and in triggers.

For the first thing:
Check out the SPELLS and the animations. There is Warstomp for example, which has SPELL SLAM. So you know that there is a spell animation and a slam animation.

Most units at least have:
Attack, Move, Spell, Decay, Death

 

[Day-Elven]

Animations: attack, stand, spell, throw, channel, slam, work.

To use the sound go to sound editor at first, right-click the imported sound and select "use as a sound."

100%ly the same what I've posted.

 

[jareph]

for more specify like spell channel, attack slam, stand victory,
you have to add "-" work between 2 string, like
attack - slam,
stand - victory

something

Lol, what is the point of this post? I was writing and didn't see that you've replied already.

Yea, and I've forgot 1 thing: don't forget to remove sounds, or they'll create memory leaks.

The simplest way to look which animations a unit have(differs based on which unit) is to browse them in the small preview window to the left of your WE screen. The browse animation buttons is just over the preview window.

Thank you <3
Just another question, anyway to make dummy unit appear at origin of the unit?(under feet like aura..)?

 

[Anachron]

no, why should you?

 

[ProfessorZmurge]

no, why should you?

Um, to make the effect look better

 

[Anachron]

Why not attaching the effect to the unit, and not a unit to a unit?
