Cloud Model?

Does anybody know of a cloud model (or special effect that could be placed on an invisible unit)? Like in Skibi's Tower Defence, where the boughten spells are those little black clouds? I'm trying to make a "cloud elemental", but I'm having trouble finding a model for one.

Its unholy frenzy that you are looking for, I think it is either in the abilities tab, or the buff tab.

No No, not unholy frenzy. Although I might still try that if I have to. I mean like an actual cloud? Do you guys mod so much that u dont actually play what other ppl make on wc3? I know there must be a little cloud model somewhere, but where? I've seen them on a few maps, but I can't find it! grr.

You have hit it right on the nail, I only like one map atm and that is Genesis of Empires, but alas hardly anyone hosts it so I spend all my time making maps instead of playing lol.

You could probally try and find a way to use the cloud model that is used when the dragonhawk casts cloud.

Ah now I can't tell whether or not ur being sarcastic but I dont particularily think its funny. The unholy frenzy is a round little cloud with little bolts of lightning coming out of it. The kind of cloud I want is a roiling mass of darkness, the animation looks very similar to the small or gust fire only it covers a larger area and doesn't give off the smoke. It's quite small, as in, compared to the dragonhawk's cloud ability, maybe about the size of a catapult(or whatever those new orc things are called). Maybe it's a custom model or something, but if anyone knows where I could find something like that...

I just remembered off the top of my head that what you might be looking for is based on the Gryphon Rider's hit effect.

I think you might need to actually find an aftermarket model and use that, or get off your lazy ass and look through every single model in wc3 like we all have to.
