Ghost_81st	Is there anyway to Change the SS Color? when it does the damage? I tried importing one of the TXT files with the color changed, but it did not work. Does anyone know what I did wrong or know of how to do it?

GaDDeN	Im dont think there is a "easy" way of doing thing, but you could try making the effect manually (WEU has a ready made trigger which can create different texts above). But that is a stupid way anyways, if anybody know a way to actually change the color, that is much better...

I don't think there is any way to change it, but if you make the shadow strike into the trigger.

Code:

Event: A unit starts finishes casting of an ability.
Condition:All the following conditions are true
 ((Target unit of ability being cast) has buff Shadow Strik Mimic) Equal to
True
(Ability being cast) Eqaul to Shadow Strike Mimic
Action: Wait 1 seconds
Unit - Set life of (Target unit of ability being cast) to ((Life of (Target unit
 of ability being cast)) - 25.00 *Or your amount*
Floating Text - Create floating text that reads 25 above (Target unit of ability being 
cast) with Z offset 0.00, using font zie 10.00 zolor (100.00%, 0.00%, 0.00%), and 
0.00% transparency
Copy/Paste 5 times for 5 seconds of effect

You'll also need to edit the ability you made it so theres no poison damage for 0 amount of time. If you still need help PM me. I don't think its a very hard spell to make btw.

i am telling you now, your mustn't of looked hard!!

Code:

// ShadowStrike text tag data
ShadowStrikeTextColor=255,160,255,0
ShadowStrikeTextVelocity=0,0.04,100
ShadowStrikeTextLifetime=5
ShadowStrikeTextFadeStart=2

that there is what you need to edit... it was aty the top of the list

this part is what you edit

Code:

ShadowStrikeTextColor=255,160,255,0

that that there uses RGB values

its *RED* , *GREEN* , *BLUE* , *TRANSPARENCEY*

you change it to the colour you wish... to find a colour you go into microsoft paint and go to "COLORS >>> EDIT COLORS"
and then click the box labeled "Define Custom Colors"

then it will provide you with the RGB value of the color you choose.
