Try changing the Special Effects to Holy Light.

if your trying to add twice as more effects to it try a trigger

Do something like this:

Rays of Light
    Events
        Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Rain of Light
    Actions
        Environment - Create at (Region centered at (Position of (Triggering unit)) with size (250.00, 250.00)) the weather effect Rays Of Light
        Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage circular area after 0.00 seconds of radius 250.00 at (Position of (Triggering unit)), dealing 100.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

but i mean to make the rays and then import em to my map.. i have a pic of what i like the rays to look like... the rays i whant to shift like the ''Weather Eftect - Rays of Light''.. is it hard?

You would have to get a good modeller to make it for you, then import it and use that. Try requesting it at hiveworkshop.com or wc3campaigns.net

what Nll said

 

[morno]

ok so its that hard? opps i see i forgot to uploade my pic well here it is

 

[n[u]ll]

That one shouldn't be that hard for someone to do. Go ahead and register at one of those sites then go to the request forum and request a model of that. I'm sure someone will do it

 

[morno]

what prog do i need for makeing it? i have gmax.. how do i convert .gmax to .MDX?

 

[morno]

if i get a Trigger like the one posted in this thread do i need the buffs/Eftects?

 

[esb]

Buffs are only a little icon giving information of the effect/ability it is under the affect of.
An effect, I think, is just visual effects.

 

[morno]

ok but i have copys the trigger but to be sure here is my trigger

Rain of Light
    Events
        Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Rain Of Light 
    Actions
        Environment - Create at (Region centered at (Position of (Triggering unit)) with size (250.00, 250.00)) the weather effect Rays Of Light
        Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage circular area after 0.00 seconds of radius 250.00 at (Position of (Triggering unit)), dealing 100.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

it wornt work it dmging the enemys but there is no rays or light
here is my map so you all can look at it all..

This should work for you. It's not MUI, though.
