Metamorphasis Bug

11-09-2003, 07:22 PM

I want to make a spell like metamorphasis, but instead of a the demon hunter in demon form I want the hero to turn into a Phoenix. So I created another Demon Hunter in Demon Form and gave it the model of the phoenix. However, when the hero tries to turn into the Phoenix, lots of bugs happen. Whenever the Phoenix stops moving/attacking, it turns into an egg. And the phoenix is on the ground, even thought I set the flight elevation.

Thanks an advance for any help.

Dragon	Just a thought but instead of using Metamorphosis use Bear Form and Night Elf Form as your bases.

[NK]Mutant	I'll think about that, but I think the bug will still be same. I fixed the part where he wasn't flying, but whenever the phoenix stops it still appears as an egg! I'm stumpted on how to fix this...

Eriond	The egg and the pehonix are all intertwined even though they look seperate. I agree with Thepersonthing try out the other shape shifting skills and then come back and tell us what happened.

Vexorian	The demon hunter in demon form starts with some art data fields where the alternateex string is, delete alternateex from those

Dragon	Just go look at the Pheonix. What special animation names does it have? Copy them to your Pheonix.

I already did that. Every single art option :/.

[NK]Mutant	OK, basically I figured out what's wrong. All I need is a trigger that will remove the Phoenix's alternative animation. Can anyone help me?

Dragon	Why not just base a unit off the pheonix and then mod it to your liking.

[NK]Mutant	Because, I REALLY want this ability to turn the guy into a Phoenix. I know there's a way to simply remove his alternative animation (the egg), but I'm not sure what it is.

UltimateJim	Animation - Remove the alternateex animation tag to (unit) that the trigger, i didnt spell it wrong its just messed up, but this works for removing the demon hunter- demon from so that you can have a DH morph into illiadin evil, not sure about pheonix :/

[NK]Mutant	No, the animation I want to remove is called alternative. Sorry :/. I guess i'll offer 40 points to whoever can answer this question... This means the entire trigger.
