Phoenix Fire + Lightning Effect

[Persen]

Is it possible to add a lightning effect to Phoenix Fire, and if it is, how do you do that? I've tried and it doesn't work.

bump

Do you want the fire and lightning at same time?..if not then change the missil model file to probably chain lightning

 

[Persen]

No, i want just the lightning effect, like a multi-target, auto-fireing lightning attack.

 

[Persen]

Some more bump...

open pheonix fire and give it that effect which goes with wand of lightning shield?

Hope that works

I want to add a lightning effect (Art - Lightning Effect) like in chain lightnig, and that doesn't work.

Hmm, sure would be a lot simpler if you could give the phoenix fire ability lightning attack.

Does the phoenix fire ability generate on attack events? If it does then you could create lightning effects manually and just remove the phoenix fire missile

 

[Persen]

No, it doesnt generate attack, spell or order events.

Two ways then to possibly do it.

1. Evaluate the AOE around the unit with the phoenix fire ability with a pick every unit. If the unit has buff "phoenix fire", draw a line of lightning between the phoenix fire unit and the unit with the buff.

2. There is a trigger somewhere that has something that refers to "source of damage". Perhaps look for what triggers that and evaluate whether or not source of damage would point to your phoenix fired unit (then draw lightning)

Are you sure that this doesn't generate attacked events? I know it generates death events because I evaluate when things die to phoenix fire enabled units in my map.
