I've been trying for a while now to get this fixed and am still having no luck. My laptop is very inconsistent about whether or not it appears on the network. It's a Toshiba Satellite and it runs Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit. My brother has an identical laptop and it has worked fine every time...

I'm working on an ability that is supposed to be a cross between Thunder Clap/War Stomp and Earthquake. Basically, it should work like the former, but should be continuous like the latter. I would base it directly off of Earthquake, but Earthquake can only damage buildings, even if I change the...

The map I'm currently working on features some high level skills, some reaching as high as nine levels, and there are quite a few of them. To compensate, I put in a trigger to give players extra skill points to spend on abilities each level. I went into the Gameplay Constants menu to enable more...

Firstly, I'm working on a new map that would have the player follow a single unit around, similar to an RPG. I changed a few things around with the camera so that it stays locked to the unit but still allows players to issue orders on the minimap. My question is how do I make the minimap display...

I'm working on a map after taking a long break from WCIII, and I can't remember if this is possible, but I'm currently trying to create a hero that starts with no base attack, and has to choose from three possible skill sets, which will then change the base-hero into a corresponding specialized...

I recently had to get a new PC, and don't have my Warcraft III:RoC CD anymore; I won't go into details but a "friend" stole it. I don't need it normally, because I have Frozen Throne, but to install it I need the original program. Does anyone know where I can download a copy of Reign of Chaos so...

Is there any way to create building add-ons, similar to the ones seen in Starcraft, like the Machine Shop on Factories or the Spec-Ops Lab on the Science Facility? I was thinking of making something like a tower that builds onto one of my barracks-type buildings to add an attack, but without...

I have a spell that a unit casts to immobilize itself in exchange for invisibility and extra armor (used for recon), based off of a transformation spell. It requires 25 mana (termed energy for this map), but it should only charge the mana for becoming invisible, but should not charge mana to...

I added a custom burrow to one of my custom units, and the unit uses the model Goblin Shredder. Is there any way to make it so the unit portrait is not changed to Crypt Fiend when it burrows? Also, Is there any way to make the model of the unit Goblin Shredder immediately upon resurfacing, or...

Does anyone know of a trigger free spell that would be able to make the caster invisible for a limited amount of time? If not, is there a form of permanent invisibility that cannot be spotted by enemy detection?

I am having trouble with a spell that is supposed to mimic an EMP device. Ideally, it should be an instant spell, similar to Thunder Clap or War Stomp, but any AoE spell should work. It should stun not only enemies and neutrals, but allies as well. I have tried War Stomp, Thunder Clap...

Another question for anyone able to answer: I have an ability, Power Shield, similar to Mana Shield, that is found on the basic infantry unit of a custom race, that has two levels, the first level available from the beginning of the game, the second, more powerful level only available after an...

I'm making a unit with a base model Footman. I realize this question has probably been answered, but the usual solution isn't working right now. I want 2 effects, and therefore have 2 separate abilities, but neither is working. I initially tried Life Regeneration Aura, but that did not work. I...

I am making a map that uses advanced tech, like VTOLs, Tanks, etc, and I was trying to make a Helicopter unit that can carry units. This is not my problem, though; Normally, it should be able to attack air units with one attack, but not ground units, except when carrying friendly units. Think of...

I have done a LOT of work on the map since the last beta testing, and it is looking pretty good. It's still pretty rough around the edges and is missing about 1/4 of the content, but a lot of the more complex triggering is done now, so I figure this is a good time to test it. If you have any...

Is it possible to make it so one shop sells the same thing as another shop for a different price? I have two of each kind of store for a map that I'm still working on, and one set of stores is cheaper, but the other set is a little better. Also, if you check true for whether or not a building...

I am currently working on a minigame for my Battle Arena, and it involves killing rats. The thing is, just killing rats is an overly simple principle. So I have three major types of rats; diseased rats, which attack the player (they aren't a threat, they are just there to make it more than...

Are the any trigger action that could delay the damage of an ability? For instance, if I make a custom ability, Sticky Bomb, it will attach a bomb to an enemy and then after a few seconds, do area damage. The problem is, I need time to allow the Hero to escape before it explodes. I've tried...

Can damage area damage the unit that causes it? I am working on an ability called Sticky Bomb. It is pretty much an AOE spell that damages units with 350. I'm using triggers, and I was wondering if it could possibly damage the caster when I use Damage Area in the trigger editor.

I'm having another problem with importing custom models. I imported all the textures that the unit used, as well as the portrait, yet still they don't appear. The file path I typed for the objects is correct, as models are pathed as only the file name, while the textures have Textures\... in...
