Deaod	easiest solution would be a hidden critical strike ability with a factor of 1.

JASS:

//^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
//
// {texttag msg}
//
//^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

function SPL_TTMsg takes string s, unit u, integer r, integer g, integer b returns nothing
 local texttag tt=CreateTextTag()
 call SetTextTagText(tt, s, .024)
 call SetTextTagPosUnit(tt, u, 32.)
 call SetTextTagColor(tt, r, g, b, 0xff)
 call SetTextTagVelocity(tt, .0, .0355)
 call SetTextTagFadepoint(tt, 1.75)
 call SetTextTagPermanent(tt, false)
 call SetTextTagLifespan(tt, 3.75)
endfunction

//^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
//
// end {texttag msg}
//
//^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

and use any damage detection system:

CRAZY-PENGUIN	Im looking for something like critical strike number hits(not necessary red if it is changeable).All hits shows the damage dealt but i dont want the Critical strike abilitie added to the units.

Deaod	read ADLOF's post. The function he gave displays a TextTag with the string you define and color you want. Use a Damage Detection System to get the damage and then Display the Damage converted to a string.

ADOLF	and use I2S(R2I(GetEventDamage())) =)

Themerion	This is a sample on how to do it with standard triggers (no scripting). Quite easy. - http://www.wc3campaigns.net/showthread.php?t=84913 -
