Show a Item on an unit WHEN it takes the item

[Cyrax86]

Hi!

I want to attach an item to an unit when it takes the item:

-A units gets an item
-item is a green mushroom
-create a specialeffect on unit (green mushroom)

Anyone know how to do this?

Well, you basically said it yourself. You need a model of the mushroom and then just attach it to his head or whatever in a form of a special effect.

• Events
  • a unit acquires an item
• Conditions
  • itemtype of item being manipulated equal to green mushroom
• Actions
  • create a specialeffect attached to the overhead of triggering unit useing "green mushroom model"

if your item is sword attachment is left hand or right hand.
if it is a shield attachment is the same...
-||- armor -||- chest...

English please.

Try to use some other model, because some models don't show up.

 

[3rgytr54]

export the model (ie: war3modeleditor) then import it. Also are you using the wrong path?

You do not need a trigger.

Simply make the item display the model, it can not be simpler. This has been seen by items such as the banners.

Yeah, for example, base it off of Orb of Fire, or if you don't want to, some ability(modified) like Endurance, Brilliance, Command, Devotional, etc and just remove the effect.

Remove the effect(like the +damage bonus if you don't want that), change the "Art - Target" to the model you want.

Change the "Art Attachment Point 1" to "weapon" or "weapon" "left" if you want it to appear on the left hand side, or "weapon" "right" if you want it to appear on the right hand side.

The actual item object itself has a field to do it, an ability is not even needed I think.

I prefer to use that.
I hate special effects not because I can't place them, but because I can't remove them as easy as the spheres.
The time you spend triggering special effects you can spend on using a sphere or the orb effect and you still have time to do something else.
And in the end the details make the game!
