Editing Forked Lightening

when i change forked lightening, and use it in game, the game crashes. Any1 else have this problem?

1) What did you change?
2) Are you using an 'advanced' editor?

1) so that the lighting bolts are arrows
2)No, i'm using blizzards WE, but it crashes in game

You answered your question yourself, you can't change lightning effects to missile arts...

XIID.GT4 is right. YOu can only select certain lightning effects such as Finger of Death, Mana Drain, Mana Burn, Life Drain, Healing Wave, Chain Lightning, and Forked Lightning.

If you want to know why, lightning effects are created by the game directly without any skin/model from one to another point, they don't move, but arrows have a model so it just causes an error if you try changing that.
I hope that's right^^Just heard about it once

Edit: I want to add that you can make a missile art for chain lightning, it has a little lightning ball as missile additionally to the lightning effect!

I tried using that before and the missile effect didnt seem to show up.

I put no lightning art and added a missle art to the spell. i didn't try to change the lightning to a missle.

Just because you add a missile art doesnt mean it will appear. With most spells if it doesnt have missile art to begin with it wont have one no matter what.

However, the problem isn't whether there's a missile, but that the game crashes. Can you describe very specifically the situation leading up to the crash? Exactly what do you do, and precisely at what point does it crash?

I'd imagine the reason is the removal of the lightning effect: Maybe the spell just doesn't work without one?

Try adding one and testing it, and if it stops crashing, you've probably found your problem.

Removing Lightning Effects doesn't crash the game, only adding missile arts to spells with lightning effects but NO missile arts crashes it!

Actually, it doesn't. Just as proof, I made the following map.

mogmiester, what happened exactly?

I swear you guys are DUMB!!! I thought I was a noob spell editor. All you have to do is delete the lighting effects, add the arrow model to Missle Art and Effects, and add a missle speed. Trust me, it works. I used a modified forked lightning in almost all my maps several times.

THATS WHAT I DID!
