2 spell problems

Ok heres my 2 spell problems...

1) I created a passive spell that increases your attack damage. Assuming the obvious, I created an item ability and made it a Hero ability. I made all the stats exactly the same as a regular passive skill and all the button pos are correct but a problem arrises. When I research my skill, it doesn't show up on my Hero's list of spells. Button positions are correct, its X-0 Y-2 for both normal and research... HELP PLEASE! I also tried Critical Hit with a 100% chance but I want the stat increase to be visible and not have the damage indicator everytime he hits someone. If there is a premade hero spell that I can base this off, please tell me of it. I tried the stat increase ability, - no damage field, I tried bash, - again I want the stats to be visible. Im really at a loss here. Oh and if I use an arua, it will show up as a buff, which I dont want.

2) I want to create a passive spell that increases defense. I used Devotion Aura with targeted units - self, but again it gives me that damn buff art. Any spell I can base this off would be helpful. Thanks.

I have the same problem with #1 really annoying I wish they would have a pop down menu or something that you can choose spells type and what is does, so you can make any skills thats within the limits of warcraft. Oh well its the best map editor yet.

The link justs takes you take the other thread i answered about this. You pretty much make 2 abilities. One - The ability you created and Two - another ability that shows up in your command buttons. Just DL it and see what i mean. >.<

For the Devotion Aura you got right idea but last time i remember you can just take off that ugly in the fiend Target - Art or do it in HumanAbilityFunc.txt

I don't know, i just woke up. If it is'nt right , repost and I'll definitely figure it out for you. ^_^

<Work trigger work! (Kicks the computer)>

Oh I get it, so make 2 abilities and activate the working one via triggers... ill try that thanks. But I heard you cant change buff art in the tft editor, only in SLK (which I dont want to do)

Yeah, alot of buff art you cant change unless it already has one. Devotion aura has one so I sure you can do it. Just edit the devotion to whatever you want.

EDITTED: You can change all through SLK but this one you shouldn't need.

I'm pretty sure the actual problem that you're having with the item ability is that it isn't configured to have a button. So, it won't show one for you.
Ak47's solution seems to be a good one.
