Spell Editing Questions

I was just trying to edit some of the spells visual effects, but it doesn't seem to change. For example:

Blizzard: I tried changing the Art -Missle, Art -Target, Art -Effect. Still the same icy shards. I was trying to make it that Entangling Roots will appear instead.

Spiked Carapace: I changed the Art -Caster, but it still shows the spikes sticking out. I wanted to make a book in the right hand.

Anyway, could someone explain how the ability edit, or direct me to a site that gives explanations. I'm getting lost clicking around.

Thank you very much.

#1 change the buff of the blizzard ability

what is spiked carapace? :\

Actually, I think it's the effect, not the buff, of Blizzard that makes the ice shards.

Spiked Carapace's art information is also stored in a buff, probably because the original plan for SC was that it would be an activated ability, like Divine Shield, rather than a passive.

Keep in mind, for Spiked Carapace, that you'll almost certainly want to change the number of attachments and attachment points as well.

Panto is right, you got to go in the Buff editor but most of the visual are effects, and you defenetly want to put the spike elsewhere since the original attachment point (mounted, left and right if im right) is specially for large unit like the Crypt Lord or Kodo

Just to clarify, to change blizzard art, you go to the buff editor and find a buff called "Blizzard (Effect)" and edit the art fields there.
