Need Triger help

Hey, I'm looking for a trigger that can help me do the following:

I want to have a Character who can summon a Hero Unit.
The hero Unit will have no Attack damage, just a few hitpoints and armor.

But the Hero Unit will have 4 Abilities, that are already set, (not needed to be trained)

Now the 4 Abilities will be 4 different types of Morphs (heroes Still), will be able have an attack, hit points, armor and other Abilites which also do not need to be trained (3 of them will be to morph into the other three
illusions and than 2 spells which will be autocast.
Also I want the summoned creatures to NOT have a timed life, and Not gain any experience. I am going to want them to Level up based on the original spell cast for the original summoned hero spell level.

Any help will be very much needed. thank you

i have a suggestion how about a cinamatics tutorial in english cuz the only cinamatics tut is in german and im in america and i didnt take german as my second language so if someone could od that that would be awsome

To that and every other person requesting a translation from german to english, Copy n' Paste to http://www.freetranslation.com

And to moderators could you make a tutorial on renaming things like str,agi,int,gold,wood and food? Cause I can figure out how to change the icon but I cant change there names, and Ive seen it done. Or you could just PM me how to do it.

Another helpful tutorial would be how to attach models to attachment points in WE (no not actually editing the model)

I need someone to tell me how to make a unti transform into a unit. i cant post pictures now so ill explain it.

I have Havoc, two of them. one is the Flying Machine with the havoc model and button. then the second one is that, but i changed its movement to none and hight to none. so its basically a grounded chopper.
what i need is someone to tell me how to make an ability so it makes the havoc turn intot he flying one. or do anything similar, like changing the movement speed, hight, type, etc. and also make it go back. i'd prefer to have the two spereate units, because i want the gounded one to regenerate life faster. or some other stuff. i also kinda want it an ability because it migh change owners, or it might be produced at a building, i don't know because im making this for a freind. (he cant import models for his life)
i tryed this allready by altering Medivh's turn into a bird ability to change units and stuff. but when i tryed it, it didn't work, and my game crashed giving me an error saying "the memory could not be "read"" or something. any help? please?[/url]

Turorial Request:
I want help with a "something", im not sure what it is, it might be a trigger, or anything else. But i want map scrolling to be done in a little area, the character pick area, and than in in-game play area, and i dont want players to see the set up area of the game. That is done in "Dark Lineage Owen" does anyone know how to do it:?:


By map scrolling area i mean, you cannot move your camera or your view outside of the specific region.

So, i need a very complex tutorial...it`ll be very useful, because I`m sure a lot of people want to do it too.
There are three attributes, aren`t there?

Strenght: Increases Hit points, and, in strenght based heros, damage.

Agility: Increases attack speed, move speed, armor and, in agility based heros, damage.

Intelligence: Increases Magic Points and, in intelligence based heros, damage.

Maybe there are other increasing points in one of these abilities, but it will not interfer on what I want to know.
I have seen, in some maps, other attribute names and icons, with other functions. Strenght just increased damage, agility just attack speed and move speed and Endurance improved magic points, hit points and armor. That really impressed me. I`m not very good at map making.
I am now making a map that`s a mix of Archery Tactics with Dota. And the heros are only archers...and I think that archers shoudn`t have attributes like strenght and intelligence. So I`ve decided to change it to:

Accurracy: improves range, line of sight and projectile speed.

Mobility: improves attack speed and move speed.

Endurance: improves magic points, hit points and armor.

But I`ve only decided...It`s not done! There I`ll need your help. I want to change the hero attributes icons and functions. Can you post a tutorial with that help?

First Person Camera. I just want the camera to go whenever the hero goes, facing the same heros direction, with a short angle of attach.
Just like in Pokemon 6.0, Paintball and others.
Add in your tutorial, also, how to make the camera go to whenever the hero goes, without changing angle of attach, just like Diablo and some Rpg Wc3 Maps.
Thank you!

A tutorial or guide on map optimization. My map is currently quite big and has a pretty long load time, which takes even longer on my slower computers(I've tested on 4 other PC's).

I noticed now DOTA use to be nearly 3mb with up to 5 minutes of load time. Now it's quite a bit less in file size and game loading has improved dramatically.

Any tips would be great, thanks.

I'm looking for an animation transfer tutorial. Anyone know of one or someone who can make one? I've learned how to edit models and merge geosets, but animation is one thing I have not figured out. I'm sure it can be done just by knowing how to edit the .mdl, right?

That^^I want that too, lol.^

This isn't a request, but Windows blocks some models I download, and I can't unblock them, even the windows says to right click and unblock the folder. There is no unblock option.

Thanks for your time.
