Simple Question about the Shimmering Portal Doodad

[Avex]

Does anyone know why the Y and Z of the Shimmering Portal doodad cannot be modified? Any scaling is completely linked. I'd like to know if I could change it.

Destructables can only be scaled evenly and in the object editor, you can set the min and max value of destructables you place. Only doodads can be warped.

 

[Zunariel]

Simply create a doodad with the schimmering Portal model and you can set the size as you like it

Ah, thanks.

What about if it was a Unit? Would the model have to be changed?

You can't set the Y/Z scale of a unit. It has the same limitation as destructibles (and items, I assume).

You can do it with model editing if you want (either mdlvis, matrix eater, or oink's vertex modifier) by moving the vertices.
