Reaper's Claw by Vinz

Does anyone think they would be able to help me with Vinz custom power that is written in Jass.

This is his resource link:

Reaper's Claws

Reaper's Claws Previews: Tilted 0, 45, and 135 degrees at various heights Roll goes counter-clockwise, so the demo uses negative angles. TimeScale determines the effect's speed, where 1 = 100%. local unit u = GetTriggerUnit() local effect fx local real x = GetUnitX(u) local...

local unit u = GetTriggerUnit()
local effect fx
local real x = GetUnitX(u)
local real y = GetUnitY(u)
local real face = Deg2Rad(GetUnitFacing(u))

I am having trouble with what I am supposed to be replacing the text in here as I don't know JASS as well as I should, but really like his spell.
The Unit Variable I have for the correlating unit is called unitVAMPIRE if that helps ^.^

It is copied as a script spell and is written in JASS btw not GUI

You need to put that in a custom function, and then call that custom function from within whatever GUI trigger would know to display this effect. Also change the unit variable assignment line:

function ThisNameMustBeUnique takes nothing returns nothing
   local unit u = udg_unitVAMPIRE //GetTriggerUnit()
   local effect fx
   local real x = GetUnitX(u)
   local real y = GetUnitY(u)
   local real face = Deg2Rad(GetUnitFacing(u))
   local real tilt

   set tilt = 0
   set fx = AddSpecialEffect("war3mapImported\\Reapers Claws Red.mdx", x, y)
   call BlzSetSpecialEffectOrientation( fx, face, 0, Deg2Rad(tilt))
   call BlzSetSpecialEffectHeight(fx, 90 + BlzGetUnitZ(u))
   call DestroyEffect(fx)

   set tilt = -45
   set fx = AddSpecialEffect("war3mapImported\\Reapers Claws Red.mdx", x, y)
   call BlzSetSpecialEffectOrientation( fx, face, 0, Deg2Rad(tilt))
   call BlzSetSpecialEffectHeight(fx, 110 + BlzGetUnitZ(u))
   call BlzSetSpecialEffectTimeScale(fx, 0.8)
   call DestroyEffect(fx)

   set tilt = -135
   set fx = AddSpecialEffect("war3mapImported\\Reapers Claws Red.mdx", x, y)
   call BlzSetSpecialEffectOrientation( fx, face, 0, Deg2Rad(tilt))
   call BlzSetSpecialEffectHeight(fx, 110 + BlzGetUnitZ(u))
   call BlzSetSpecialEffectTimeScale(fx, 0.7)
   call DestroyEffect(fx)

   set u = null
   set fx = null
endfunction

• Actions
  • Custom script: call ThisNameMustBeUnique()

Thank you so much dude. I really appreciate it! You're a godsend
