What?? there are azn ppl in nashville???

Not where I live. I live about an hour south of Nashville. Even in Nashville there aren't that many, at least that I've seen.

OMG THIS WILL HELP SLAM SOOOOOOO MUCH!!! I can't believe I didn't see this before. I guess it's because I was looking for a real, and not an integer :/

Just for fun

I made a ability trying to reteach my self triggering. The spell is hilarious because it is so sketchy and edgy.

Its the Cherry Blossum spell i was talking about with Zoi. Where Cloud is able to get it for his final Job Skill at Final Fantasy Tactics not ff7 - Sorry for the confusing.

The one i created is similar from what i remember what it look like. But im wierd so i don't care. >.<

The spell is by far not perfect. Just to get myself back into WE.

I know i can't get the stupid beginning part where he suppose to leap or use blink and disappear in the air.

I suppose to use a unit type unit not hero type. Or it will pop another hero icon and it will soak up xp too. I don't think i set it so the hero gain xp for his kills and ally kills. (i cood set a table thing where it collects than add but i know there is better way). Selection is still off too. And the landing is bit edgy. I popped in text and stuff for hell of it. I'm so tired now though lol. I just wanted to see what you guys think. Just for laughs. Fix it up for me. I want to see it in full action. I'm using the normal WE - i think you guys using some more advance programs? not sure. Zoi? Blah - im tired so i hope to get some feedbacks and maybe someone look at it and fix it up for me. me go sleepy sleep now.

<Yeah i know there are more errors but i can't name - im tired BUT FOR SURE you will find out.> LOL

Wow, that was pretty nice. I can see some issues with it, like you said. You definately should use a unit, and not a hero for the effect. You don't have do have a deselection trigger for the fake BM. Just give him the Unknown(aloc) ability. Also, PAUSE the real BM. He was hitting the ogres =P

Cloud was the only character I never got in FFT :/

I use only the standard TFT WE btw.

Slam now works based on terrain height. I need to add some exceptions into the triggers to accommodate for ramps and other stuff.

Warden now has a pickpocket skill, like Ak47's. Steals 0-100/100-200/200-300 gold. 100 mana, 60 second cooldown. Will not steal more gold than the player currently has.

I was just wondering - How do you create shadow effects behind a hero and i know there are multiple ways to create invisible casters but mine seems to be time consuming. What do you do? =P

I never really use anyone's way to do anything. Just just do what i see work and do it. And man- this is early in the mourning. I got how many hours of sleep! >.<

The shadow effects are actually just a unit set with the hero's model. Use the trigger: animation - set vertex coloring, and set the colors to zero, and the transparency to 75%. Instant shadow.

For invis casters, I made a unit based on a wisp, and put a blank model path, and gave it the Unknown(Aloc) ability(thanks to Shvegait for this tip). Set mana to 100000000000000 or whatever. Any time I need another caster, I just copy this unit, and change the ability it casts.

You must've gotten, what, 3 hours sleep tops?

Hmm- I never thought of shadow making like that. =P
Was just something that bothered me.

And the Invis caster is just like me except I use acolytes. Wisp was always used for something else. =(

I guess i was too lazy. Lol

Thanks Zoi

The Eleventh Hour Preview #2 and #3 will be held Wed. and Thurs. in channel Zoi on Azeroth at ~6:00pm Central Time. I would like to get a few games in.

Anybody's welcome to join. The map is not to be distributed, and will contain a trigger to crash War3 if it is played multiplayer without me in the game.

If I'm not in the channel, /w Zoizite, as I'm probably in a game, if not in the channel.

Lol- Got off of school for a break and I wanted to fix up the cherry blossum spell. I spent about 30 more mins on it. Massive improvement. Hope it looks better >.< And the Unknown (Aloc) thing is great but sometimes it lets me choose my guy during the spell. Don't know why.

Oh - Now i get time to do my C wars Update >.< after next class

The Cherry Blossum spell wasn't as i thought it was. I seem to have mixed up Cherry Blossum with Meteor Strike. AlthougH Cherry Blossum is awesome. It is where Cloud strikes an enemy unit spliting it into two making it hit other units. Similar to slam? =P

Anyways - New Cherry Blossum will have Meteor Effects. Just to match.

Ok History -> Cherry Blossum -> Meteor Strike -> or... =P Meteor Strike ending with Multi-Directional Earth Slash (monk power)

Looks like, AK47 :)
The earth-slash doesn't always go off for some reason.. and after I used it four times or so he sank REALLY low into the ground, it was wierd... Nice hardcore triggering though!

Yeah - Its fun making up spells. No wonder Zoi is so addicted >.<

Next one im trying to make is Cherry Blossum (real one) where hero strikes (BM does slam attack) on unit and it splits the unit into two (mirror image effect) and they lose hp and whoever it slams into will lose hp. I'm not sure how i will do this. Lol

>.< I just apply to 6 classes in college. Omg - Im krazy lol

Someone shoot me with ak now. =(

If you guys want to talk aim directly than i will pm u my two aim name =P

Alot of people been asking lately. Also i will have c wars. updated soon haze.

(man i should start saying these news in c wars thread.) oh well laziness is a habit not a personality. Wait it could be. AHHHH

lol, well, at least your having better luck than me, I tried to make a spell I discussed with Zoi, and even with the advice he gave me it doesn't work and everything is just so complicated and frustrating with it that it is making my head spin. :P

Don't let your grades suffer on account of this though, Ak47, college is important!

I'm addicted too... =( thx to Zoi, you and others that gave me ideas, its turning out nicely.. but its delaying my release of my new version (I mean that as a complement)

Just got done with Kain the Dragoon's 'jump' ability.... b4 it kinda look like he 'jumped' but now, he really 'jumps' and lands on the target.

currently working on cloud's 'braver' skill but its gona be differnt from kain's 'jump' ability

@Lazurus, ya i know, it can be complicated and frustrating when a spell doesnt work to what you wanted.. My head spins too :(

*EDIT* @Zoi, thx for the workaround FreezeBrethSFX fix, that was giving me a big headache, I've posted it on the bnet forum, and dragoon-elf made a intersting post.... It might work, but I have no time to try it yet...
