Did you make a custom hero with normal unit model? Your new hero isn't glowing like real warcraft heroes? Does your hero look like normal unit? Use this system. This will really help you. It helped me. If you use on your map or anywhere give credits to me Mysticfalcon.. Do not forget 'Sharing is a virtue.'

I need reputation because I have zero:rolleyes: If you want you can give..

NOTE: Player 1(Red) and Player 7(Green) isn't inside of system. We assume they are base players like Sentinel or Scourge and doesn't have heroes on the game.

This isn't really much of a system because of the simplicity of it. You can just import a clear Hero Glow model and make a dummy ability with the Hero glow attached to the units origin.

I will have a look at your system to see if you have done it a different way anyway.

EDIT: Yours is actually more complicated than it needs to be.

However even DotA doesn't have a system that like this one. DotA's heroes looks like normal units.

But a simple way would be to import 1 file (HeroGlow.mdx, I have it if you want it), create a dummy ability and then set the model file to HeroGlow.mdx and set attachment point to "origin" and it automatically changes colour with the different players.

I tried this one too. And if you put this in an ability that will be red. So doesn't work. Thats why I made this system.

Oh ^^. But anyway I don't find this that useful. Just my opinion. Cause I find glowing ugly. Would be "unrealistic" on maps I'm making.

Well I wouldn't call this a system either.. It's more like models. Which it is.

Edit: Didn't check the map. Sorry then.

Actually, when used as abilities, they do change colour. I have used this model before.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
