Um, huh?

I don't quite get you here. Correct me if I'm wrong...

You added the "Frost Nova" ability to a unit and you want to change the SFX Effect of the ability to something else?

or

You changed the "Art - Missile Art" of a unit to "Frost Nova" Effect and wanted to change it back by setting the field back to default?

First, tell exactly what you want to do.
Second, is it a spell or just an attack effect.
Third, what unit are we talking about.
Fourth, are we talking about a trigger? If yes, post it.


Peace verdr3t

Ok. It doesnt involve a trigger it is a attack effect,It is a projectile art. I set the effect to frost nova (effect) and when i came back to take a look at it, it became default but still have the frost nova effect and when i change it to another effect eg throwing a peasant lol it doesnt work.

i want to change it and i changed it by changing it

Ive been confused ever since... Was it a spell or a unit's attack?

 

[verdr3t]

So you changed the "Combat - Projectile Art" to "Frost Nova (Effect)".

You tested the map and didn't see the "Frost Nova (effect)" projectile art but the default missile art for the unit.

when i came back to take a look at it

You checked back at the Object Editor and there is the "Frost Nova (Effect)" in
"Combat - Projectile Art". And when you change it to "Peasant" it still won't show when you test the map.

That right?

Well if that's the case check if you placed the correct unit on the map. There should be no bug like this.

If you still encounter that problem tell us what unit you are editing.


Peace verdr3t

No. You got it wrong yes i changed the projectile art to frost nova (Effect) and it does shows up but,when i change it to another projectile it doesnt shows up at all . And aftere that i set the projectile to default but the frost nova effect still comes up..

 

[dunpealx4]

set the missile speed, normally 600-2000. 0 and 10000 means instant.

 

[wraithseeker]

What I want is to change the frost nova (effect) projectile of the unit to its default and i changed it but it doesnt work when i tested the map

 

[Sil3nt]

I have no idea why it would be like that. Maybe its your world editor bugging or something. Probably easier if you just created a new unit

You can't change the projectile's model because the frost nova spell is instant and doesn't use one, so if you want to make that effect, try making off another spell.

 

[wraithseeker]

i meant i wanted to remove all the custom projectile and set it to default but it doesnt work

 

[darkRae]

No way.
Try resetting the value of

Combat - Projectile Art

 

[wraithseeker]

no it still doesnt works
Another quick question how do u make ur character permaeently invisbilty when he is attacking

 

[Anything.]

Please check the following:
1) Unit does not have 'Missile (Instant)' as its Attack-type.
2) Unit is not attacking with a second attack which you did not change.
3) Your missile is moving too fast and has no death animation.
4) You're editing the wrong unit.
5) You are using a melee attack with large range and therefore no effect shows.

 

[wraithseeker]

Ok thanks for the help, but i got another question still how do u make ur character permaeently invisbilty when he is attacking or doing any other thing

 

[BlackRose]

Well you should make another thread for that.
I think Ghost does the trick, just a random guess.
