so i am making this really big map, and i have a few things i could really use help with. I'll just post them all here. if there is something I've overlooked that could tell me real well please tell.
1- Something really important I'll need pretty basic. How do i get icons into my world editor? Every time i try to put any extra icons in, it gives me the same grief it did when i tried to put in some models. (Boy that was fun, it took forever to find that some just don't work with my version.) If it is the same problem, and my version is obsolete or something, would someone help me get it in there some way? I'll do anything!
2- Is it possible to give people a ability that allows them to jump? Like in all the games you see around, is that a possible thing to put in warcraft?
3- Another rather simple one. I'm attempting to allow the players to be able to gibe their people gloves. I've almost got this on down, but the only problem is when i try to give the point for the ability to put the model as 'right hand' or 'left hand' it goes to their feet. It's really annoying.
4-How would you make it so that a unit has a item that does extra attack damage, but whenever they attack they use one of it's charges. And the same thing pretty much, but for armor, so whenever they are hit they lose charges. And when it runs out of charges, it stops working, stays in their inventory, and if there is a model attached to it make it stop working in the same process. I also need to find a way to make the charges go back up to maximum. (for a price of course)
5-This one really bothers me, but i see it all the time. How would you make it so that when a unit grabs like a sword, and he is already carrying the sword he can't use it, it dose not give him power ups, or armor ups, and dose not give him the model that it gives him. And when i do this, how do i make it so that switch weapons, or boots, or whatever?
6-how do you make it so that your hero has an item, and when they click it, it brings up one of those screens when you win, or lose. And they can drop, equip, and put stuff in it, plus exiting of curse.
7-this one is like number 6 in a way. With the win, or lose screen, how do you bring it up? Is it like dialog? I never could get that to work, and i just use quest update, send transmition from unit.
8-Rather simple, actually a few questions under this one, except i just don't understand how things are working down there. How do i make it so that i can put more then one terrain in one area? like have snow in lorderan summer, or lava in Icecrown. I don't already have any tools, so if someone could walk me through that it would be helpful.
9-I know how to make this one run real well, i just have a few problems, like flooding the map with creeps until it crashes. It is spawns. I know how to make them, my only problem is i want them so that they only produce three, and no more until one dies, and when any do die, it only produces the amount that died.
10-This one is real simple. All i am looking for is a spell book that is an ability for a unit, and when he uses it it takes up mana, so not like an item.
I know it is a lot of questions, and you may not want to answer them all, and you may not know them all. If you only know one, help anyway. I look for people who help, not how many questions you answer, it is what you do.
Thanks again to all who help!
