Cant create a custom unit based on Demon Hunter's Demon form!

Damn those titles ;)

I want to base a unit on the demon form of a demon hunter, so that when appearing in the map he'll be a demon already and cant turn back!

It has to work in MP too...

How?

Not too sure, but try creating a unit based on the hero demon hunter, I belive he has no timer so it would be unable to change...

Nope doesn't work....
Also i would like to make him not a hero therefor meaning that i have to make a new unit not based on a hero and the alter the model to that of the demon hunter! Come on doesn't anyone know...

There is a model for the DH in Demon form. Base your unit on that, and he will always stay that way.

Also try making a unit from that "Illidan (possesed)" unit. Can't remember the excact name, but it's not the "Illidan (demon form)"

Good luck:D

EDIT: Årh hvad, jeg opdagede slet ikke at du var fra Danmark før jeg havde posted!!!:ggani:

For all-non danish

Ok I was just wondering, if i based the unit on Illadins Morphed model, then the new unit would automaticly be a hero right?
I dont want that Can i turn the "hero" thing of somehow?

For all danes

Hehe det er fint nok! Jeg tænkte bare på at hvis jeg laver en ny mand udfra den Illadan (Morphed) tror jeg han hedder, er han så ikke automatiks en hero?
(Det må han ikke være)
Eller kan jeg slå "Hero" fra?

Then what you really want to do is either create a custom unit, or modify an existing one that is a Non Hero and use one of the available WE enhancers to change the model of the unit to that of the Demon form of the DH.

That, or you could simply disable experience gaining for that unit. But if you simply wanting to prevent a player from being able to carry items, a custom unit with the changed model is your best bet.

Ok, here 3 easy steps to do it:

1.) Click on MOUNTAIN KING (or any other NORMAL/COMMON hero) and -> create custom unit
2.) Edit his abilities like the demon-form DH (splash dmg, agility, spells, ..., size, ...)
3.) Use Model of DH in Meta or Illidan in Meta

Did you remember to type in 'alternateex' in the 'required animation names' field in the unit editor? If not it will only use the demon hunter form and not the morph. Also, Illidan demon form has no timer, but if your start off in demon form then it shouldn't change back anyway.

I have typed in AlternateEx but that changed nothing! Also tried Illadan model, but since he used the same model as a regular demon Hunter there was no point!

Maybe i should give up..... ;(

Well a craptacular method is as follows, when the demon hunter is changed to regular form, replace with the demon form, repeat...

Not good, because i still cant make any unit with the deamon form model

I got an idea, maybe you could make a unit of the Druid of the Claw (Bear form). Just give him the Demon Hunter model, and it should work.

I'm not sure if it's gonna work, but at least he's not on a timer unlike the DH.

Maybe im nor explaining very well so here goes again:
No matter who or what i replace with the demon hunter model it always turn up like his normal form, even though i have the alternateex thing on!

So what about you hardcode outthere yoiu have an idea?

dude are you just looking at it from within the world editor cause of you are its not gonna show the demon form so you have to do it in game
