Simple Ensnared Model

[SilverScreen]

Is there a way to show a model as ensnared without having to actually ensnare it? --In one of the campaigns, some villagers are ensnared before being sacrificed, and I was wondering if it's possible to create that buff or look on a character without having a unit actually cast it.

Thanks!

You could do it via trigger, create a special effect on a unit.

• Melee Initialization
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 5.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of Peasant 0000 <gen> using Abilities\Spells\Orc\Ensnare\ensnareTarget.mdl

Okay, I got it to work--much obliged!

Now I'm assuming that to get the ensnare effect to actually work (making unit immobile) would be much more complicated, right? ...If so, it's all good. I was primarily looking for the visual, although it is weird to see someone walking around with a net on!

Thanks again!

No problem!
