weapons and skinning help

How can i import and attach a weapon for a unit in a map can you explain me all of the ways pls cuz im kinda noob at that

Just import via WE importer

First u go here:

Attachment Points


First way:
Then you go to special effects in triggers, and choose the one that says:
Special Effect - Create special effect on a unit

Then you change the fields to what u need them to be:
Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the hand left of (Unit) using weapon\sword1.mdx

OR

Second way:
Go to abilities section, and choose new custom ability.

Pick the item ability called: Shadow Orb Ability

Then just change the attachment to: weapon\sword1.mdx and the attachment point to: hand left.

Give the ability a name, and give it to the unit you want to have it.

Or you could use the Sphere ability.:D

i want to use it for a basic unit like the basic one for a race im making do i have to use the trigger for every single one of the troopers or you recomend the ability one for this job??

pls answer :ggani:

reviving my post

Make a new custom ability based upon Sphere. Edit the ability so that it uses the imported weapon instead of the Blood Elf ball. Remove the second and third attachement and set the first to whichever hand those units attack with.

Now go to that unit and give them the modified Sphere ability under their Normal Abilities section. Voila. Easy as a porn star.

thx :)

Do you need TFT gor this?

maybe but i think you dont because the editors are almost the same now

When you say "now" does that mean like an update or something!emote_sweat

The Sphere ability is only in TFT.

when tft was out there was an upgrade that made both games look almost the same including the editor

What upgrade is that?:bgrun:

hmm... I didnt think these forums were so empty:ggani:

Sorry about being so "picky" but I am quite in the need of an answer!;)
