@ Devault
About your substitution ability, does it involve hero-targets?

Instant no target

 

[Ayanami]

Instant no target

Oh. Then wait, which model does it transform into?

Completed the spell Sweep. Please read the "READ ME" before doing anything else.

I am not very happy with your work Glenphir.

You are using a timer system for no reason at all.
A simple one shot timer would have been enough with 1 dummy at the center of the SpellTargetLoc with true sight level set accordingly. But even this won't be good enough like Far Sight.

Your implementation has a big down side in that it requires 20 levels for only
2000 range of true sight while the original Far Sight at level 3 has a revealing area of 4000. 20 levels of ability would also make a map load slower.

Also unlike yours it does reveal for allies of the caster's owner both the map and invisible units.

Initially, I did the one shot timer. But then I noticed True Sight can't have multiple levels. If you know any other method to produce the true sight effect, by all means, tell me. I even tried Dust of Appearance, which also can't have multiple levels.

You seem to know how to make this spell on your own too. Are you just trying to simply test me?

Glenphir, I have a spell in mind, its a bit tricky, and I have never been able to do it for certain reasons, here it is.

Firestorm should be the name, I dont really care what it is.

Firestorm, the archmage channels 3/6/9/12 fireballs around him, always flying at different speeds and heights, always changing, when a unit comes within the radius, a fireball is unleashed from the air, knocking it just outside of the 500 AOE, it takes a second for it to get to him, so he could be anywhere inside, the fireball explodes knocking him out of the AOE and dealing 50/100/150/200 damage. They rotate around him in a circle.

Thanks

Okay, so let me get this clear.

3/6/9/12 fireballs will fly around the caster while he is channeling, correct? And these fireballs fly at random speed and height. When an enemy unit comes near the caster, the flying fireball launches towards the entering unit, knocking it back until it's out of 500 AoE of the caster and dealing 50/100/150/200 damage. Then the knockback takes 1 second.

Is that all correct?

>Are you just trying to simply test me?

Well... =)

I was hoping for a novelty from you in that the invisibility detection part of the
spell can be used for any values of the given range.

Thank you for the time it took you to make it though. I appreciate it.

>If you know any other method to produce the true sight effect, by all means, tell me.

If I come up with something (one day...) I will sure.

PS: on my editor True Sight can have multiple levels =)

o.o
Really? Didn't work for me. The value always remained at its level 1 value. Which Truesight did you use. I believe I used "Truesight (Flying Machine)" or something like that.

 

[Sgqvur]

Yes True Sight (Flying Machine) and True Sight (Shade) and all the others ofc.

 

[Devalut]

transforms into a different unit with the same model and 250 hp.

any other questions feel free to ask

 

[GOGETIA]

sure no problem the sword is at

http://wc3.nibbits.com/assets/vampire-sword/

i thought that sword would look really cool in this spell
o and if you dont mind can you make the swords lock the unit in place and make both the caster and the target invulnerable to everything except the damage inflicted by the spell

 

[Ayanami]

any other questions feel free to ask

When you say different unit, you mean any random unit in the map? o.o

Yes True Sight (Flying Machine) and True Sight (Shade) and all the others ofc.

It is indeed level able, that I found out. However, I've noticed that the values don't. It will constantly remain at the level 1 value even when the ability is at level 10.

Well, if it can, can the fireballs go at a random height like every so and so seconds? like get it so they seem like they're constantly flying up and down? and im not sure, but can it go in and out too? like fly in and out like a dome around the caster? and I meant like a second for the unit to get to the unit, not a 1 second knockback, but other then that, yes, and another related note, kinda like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZTeHYpGq9E but in my own vision.

Edit: Forgot to say thanks so much I want to know how this is done. Thanks

What do you mean by fly in and out? Any sort of distance do you want the fireballs to fly around the caster? Like do you want it to fly around the caster at melee range? And the 1 second thing, do you mean the time for the fireball to travel towards the enemy unit? And, do you want this done it GUI or vJASS?

 

[skyblader]

I believe the flying in and out he means closer and further from the caster. I'm trying to create the effects using GUI, just the effects

 

[Ayanami]

Oh. Well all you have to do is to change the offset and height to a random number between a min and a max value every interval where you move the fireball.

What do you mean by "usually high speed"?

Other Remarks: Instantly Moves the caster to the target point and damages all units between the casting point and the target point creating bloody effects on the enemies affected.

Instantly, as in really instantly? Like blink? Or do you want a sliding effect, but a real fast one. I can also leave the sliding speed to be editable if you want.

deals Main Damage and will deal bonus Damage if casting unit has a negative buff

When you say negative buff, you mean any negative buff? Or a certain buff?

And if the spell is targeted at a unit, will it charge towards the unit or just charge towards the initial target position?

 

[skyblader]

Oh. Well all you have to do is to change the offset and height to a random number between a min and a max value every interval where you move the fireball.

That would be easy... But I was thinking, that would just move the fireball abruptly in random positions. I'm trying to make it flow, like slowly move in closer and further, higher and lower, faster and slower but random points/speed.

Well, I think if you set the min and max value to something reasonable, it'll be a smooth effect.
