[General] Removing item Shadow.

[CanFight]

I've been looking around trying to find a way to remove the item shadows. But I can't actually find it. So anyone got an idea where it is?

 

[Warseeker]

I'm not quite sure an item has a shadow unless u use it for unit, then look in the Object Editor Stats

i am unable to even see item shadows. what do you need with it, maybe i can suggest something else.

Items do have shadows.
Check out this tutorial. There is an extra solution in the second comment of the thread if you want to remove shadows for ALL items.

You can hide these shadows adding to war3mapMisc.txt this line:

[Misc]
ItemShadowFile=Null

Default value is ItemShadowFile=Shadow

You can replace "Null" with any shadow. (See Shadows folder, path "ReplaceableTextures\Shadows\")


You can set the size/position if needed too:

[Misc]
ItemShadowSize=120,120
ItemShadowOffset=50,50

If war3mapMisc.txt is not present in your map, you can create one.
This file appears when you modify the gameplay constants under Advanced/Gameplay Constants.

Yea this is one way to do it, but I actually found another way.
He kinda mentioned it "ReplaceableTextures\Shadows".
I simply opened the wc3 mpq, found the shadows folder copied the path.
Imported an alpha texture and used it insted of the shadows blackone. Removing all the shadows

Thanks anyway.
