I know this has been brought up before but I can't find the post. I modified devotion aura and changed icons and the art of the aura... it works for the hero, ie it is a different art around him, but the devotion aura icon still shows up in his buffs area... and the units around him have the art for devotion aura still. Do you know a way to fix this? if so please let me know. |

did you read it? Think... it wasn't that vague... I love the replies people put like yours... they adda lot to the forum... I started with devotion aura, ok? I changed what it does I changed the art so that the little circle around the hero is different when the hero has researches it, the icon I changed to appears in his abilities. However, where buffs appear (under the stats of the hero/unit) it is still the devotion aura icon. and on the units around the hero (friednlies affected by the aura) the art is the original cirlce of devotion aura.... I know it wasn't spelled out quite this well in my first post but come on... |

I think you have to go into the abilityfunc.txt (i have no idea what or how) and change the text/icon for it then import it into the map. im not 100% sure since i dont like editing with the game files cuz i tend to screw things up, :( But im sure someone here will give you a more decent response, but please dont be rude to people. ok? the guy wanted to help you but just didnt understand what you were asking... im not even totally sure, you're talking about the little icon that shows up in the status field of a unit that says whether its like... slowed or poisoned or under the influence of an aura right? |

yeah, and the art ( the actual in screen effect ont he units) is still the devotion aura's art |

yeah its probably hard-coded into the game so you have to go into the uhh.. humanabilityfunc.txt file i think and edit it im sure someone has the details i just hope this will sate you until then |

there was a thread made a couple days ago i think talking about the same thing. What you need to edit is one of the abilityfunc.txts(cant remember which 1, but i dont believe it was the human) and change the buffart and bufftip. Then import it into your map. The buffart is the little icon displayed at the bottom of the units info and the bufftip is the msg displayed when you put the cursor over it. |
