Morphing model of unit during game

[joaoac]

Is it possible to change model of unit during game?

Im thinking about a peasant-like hero.
When he gets an item (shield, sword, axe or helmet), he transforms into the militia model.

Tried on triggers, but coudnt find a trigger that cast spell on unit (tried some kind o hex/polimorph).

May I try based on upgrades?

Anyone could help? thanks!

try using the Unit - Replace

 

[joaoac]

Sure, but what about the itens, experience gained, etc.....

The Unit - Replace will bring one new guy from the system.

Yes?

 

[Cidzero]

Replace does it all.

 

[joaoac]

Replace talk about old unit´s relative life and mana only.

I ve tried to Replace and program crashed! lol!!!

 

[Cidzero]

Well if replace doesn't work for you, chaos ability.

For adding axe, sword, ect, you could just use attachments..

Or, useing game caches, remove the unit and creat a new one with same level, items, ect. Or you could try useing a morph ability... That would hate the timer still though.

Dont know about attachs and game caches are on a next level of my comprehension on map making.

Morph ability could work. But i allways got a crash when I m playing with morphs.
lol

Chaos ability is that ability of orcs becoming red skinned in the the RoC campaign?

And siege engines becoming able to attack air units.

I dont think they are that hard, and theres tuts on them.. I dont think it would take that long to learn.

lol

Gosh, everything crashes with you, huh?

 

[joaoac]

Its the noobish style of learning, lol!!!
Not all thingies crashes dude. =/

Actually i can morph units, but heroes not yet.

I know that both units must be hero. The caster and the recipe, but it continues crashing. More work and maybe I catch the point.

By attachments you mean a new model carrying a sword on hands?

 

[Cidzero]

If its crashing, your computer is not good or the settings don't allow wc3 to function normally, or your program is cracked, and cracked versions don't work properly.

Attachments are like using a model and putting it on the hand of another unit.

 

[joaoac]

So, attachment seems easy to learn.

My PC is an Athlon 64 X2 4200+, 2 Gb RAM, MB ASUS and video card Geforce 8500 GT nVidia. All original.

The game is also original. Both, Reign of Chaos and TFT.

The crashes in game concern on bad coded triggers, only.

That blanking on the lists of Module Editor I think thats propably some uncompatibilty with the video card and the editor. Or maybe the resolution. Here is running windows XP at 1280x1024 at 32 bits and monitor SAMSUNG 19" LCD at 75Hz.
Maybe I should send an email to Blizzard and/or nVidia.
