How do you change or at least remove the words in the duration bar on summoned creatures? I'm sick of my summoned felhounds saying "water elemental". |

get the units/humanabilitystrings.txt file from an older version of war3patch.mpq. search for the summon water elemental entry and change the bufftip to whatever you want, then import the file into the map and make sure the path is units/humanabilitystrings.txt |

Don't use one from an old patch. Use the one in the War3xlocal.mpq in the WC III directory. Or you can change the duration to 0 and there will be no blue bar. You can just use commonabilitystrings.txt, take out all the current spells and just add what you want to change. It saves a little space. |

That would make the summoning/metamorphosis last forever, wouldn't it? |

You could simply create a trigger that destroys it after X seconds, this is very easy to do. Only problem is that it doesn't show it. However, editing the abilitydata.slk is the best way and is actually quite simple once you learn it. |

Well there is also a trigger that adds the blue bar and also kills the unit afterwards. Best of all, you get to choose from a list of bufftips for the blue bar (choosing Generic will read "Timed Life") |
