Quick model question! +2 rep to all helpers!

[Sverkerman]

Hi!
I am looking for the Auto-Cast model to use for my talent tree to display the current selection for each induvidual player.

I believe that it exsists inside the MPQ file but I am unable to find it. Does anyone know it's path or perhaps where I can download it?

If you are uncertain of what I am looking for, let me explain it further. You know when you right click an ability can be autocasted? A shiny chain circles around the ability indicating that it currently is being active with auto-cast. I need that model (or a similar model) for my talent tree!

+2 rep if you are able to assist me in this heroic quest to find a suitable animated selection indicator model!

This is what my Talent Tree looks like:

 

[Xthreo]

it is that path you're looking for?
UI\Feedback\Autocast\UI-ModalButtonOn.mdx
and may I suggest you these models: Fire and Poison Autocast buttons created by NhazUl for you heroic quest xD

@Xtrheo
UI\Feedback\Autocast\UI-ModalButtonOn.mdx is invisible...
How do I make it visible? I need to use it as a indicator as to what you are currently selecting from a 269 angle perspective. I need the actual autocast circling thingy as a model.

 

[Anvil]

That is because the Autocast model is a tiny tiny model, you can't see it in the editor... You need a new one. You are using a destructible for the icon models? I can make the model with the cast circle.

 

[Sverkerman]

That would be pure awesomeness if you would do that for me, Anvil!
Yes, I do use destructibles for the icon models.

 

[Anvil]

Give me a few minutes. You want to play the stand alternate in the destructible to see the autocasting circle? or you want a separate model?

Edit: I have this:

@Anvil
It can't be a Destructible. It has to be a Unit.

Here's a fresh-made model: AutocastModel
Though I don't know the size of your icons, so this model fits for a 128x128 grid, if you want a bigger one let me know.
Oh and don't worry if it looks like a "+" in the War3 Model Editor, it works in game.

Edit: I can also change the color or the size of the particles, as you wish.

 

[Anvil]

Why can't be a destructable? Anyway, is better if you attach the destructible you are using to make the particles fit with their size, because if you scale up or down in the editor the particles would be altered.

Xtrheo, the particle count for your model is 200, needs less particles.

 

[Xthreo]

Xtrheo, the particle count for your model is 200, needs less particles.

What is the maximum of particles?
And why 200 is too much?

 

[Anvil]

I mean, you can use the particle count you want. But I think for this model don't need so many particles..

 

[Xthreo]

Oh ok, well it's actually the amount blizzard used for it's autocast model, though if it's better with less particles I'll reduce it.

@Xtrheo
Looks great man! Thanks a lot for the effort! Could you perhaps make me a purple one too and increase the size of the particles by about 150-175%?

 

[Xthreo]

There you go: PurpleAutocast and YellowAutocast with 200% bigger particles since 150% or 175% wasn't really different.

 

[Sverkerman]

A huge thanks to you Xtrheo for helping me out!
Thanks to you as well, Anvil for effort!

+2 rep to both of you and credit slot for you, Xtrheo!
