Vines

I'm not certain if this is the correct forum, if not then I am sorry.

I was wondering if anybody could make a rather quick model that basically represented vines appearing, running through the ground, then disappearing. It would be nice if there was only one animation associated with it, too, so that us coders can use DestroyEffect( AddSpecialEffect(...) ).

The reason I make this request is because there is absolutely nothing that represents a missile (that I can find) for some sort of nature spell, such as this one. The only model that comes to mind at all in this theme is entangle, and we all know that is a completely static model (no potential in moving it around) and it also doesn't look good when used in masses.

Another reason is because I was going to make a spell that worked like Chain Lightning except it would entangle units. In order to make this appear normal in Warcraft I would need a model such as this to show the "missile" of the vines.

this is the wrong place to ask this but your much more likely to get attention here, no one goes into the request place cause its full'a noobs

You mean something like this? If you don't could you do a picture like this?

Hidden information:

Shadow_killer, yes, exactly like that!

I know the purpose of the model is kind of limited (I'm using it for a Chain Entangle that will go to the submissions section) but I definitely believe that plenty of people could use a nice vine missile model.

you could reskin lightning. you can't import additional lightning models.

Do you want a vine spell like the 1 erwtenpeller showed you? Or do you want 2-4 vines that goes up and down in the ground.

I would rather have vines that go up and down in the ground to make them look more dynamic.

Erwtenpeller: didn't see that coming. /sacrasm off

Noticed that litany, made 2 tries and both ended up looking like shit. The only way i think this would work would be to use the shockwave spell and base the animation of the lenght and speed of the spell.

I thought you were going to suggest something to me, but I guess pride made you want to make your own chain entangle instead :P

Heh. :P

By the way, Litany, congratulations on your 666th.

his 2nd?

What the hell.. it -was- his 666th.

Nonsense.

If you look at "recent posts by Litany" there more than 2. My sanity remains intact.

yeah, and i knew he had more then that two, but that's what it said. back to normal now, i think it haunted him for a second there.
