Oh i wondered, i was making a map, and i have a special hero with metamorphosis. well, i changed the night elf "Demon hunter (Demon Form"(or whatever they're called) to be a druid of the Claw. but when the hero changes back from Metamorphosis/DotC to normal form, he gets the Druid of the Claw face! I'm sure this is a common problem that everybody knows how to solve except me... it's my first map! |

So you mean that your demon hunter or whatever it was turns into a druid of the claw? The only fix ive ever found to prevent this is use units that already have an alterneex or morph data. That way they convert correctly. And when you dont wanna do that, then just deselect the unit, then select it again. this always seems to work for me. hope that helps. |

Guest | I think the Metamorphisis and similiar abilities temporarily replace the unit data of the caster with the unit data of the alternate form. But when they switch back, they assume you were using the base unit that the ability is designed for (Driud of the Claw, Demon Hunter, etc.). The only way I know how to easily fix this is to use the same unit data for both model and interface that you are transforming form. IE, if you gave a Footman "Metamorphisis", you'd have to change the Demon Hunter (Metamorphisis) unit data to reflect the Footman's model and interface view. |

Guest | no it doesnt, on my map i have a druid (medivh) that transforms into a timber wolf but when the druid morphs into the wolf, the medivh portrait still shows, and the other way around the wolf portrait shows, don`t have problems with the actual unit though. To prevent uglyness, increase the morph speed, so it doesnt look like he`s transforming into a demon. My druid looked like a storm crow when morphing, but when i made him transform faster, that was fixed. |

Guest | Can you increase the Morph Speed without editing any files? |

Guest | what if the wolv's interface was changed to look like med? |

Unselect and reselect the unit and it switches back I hear. |

yes that is true i used this in a Diablo2 map ages ago if u unselect and reselect it fixes it but if u wanna b clever u can add the portrait into the map so it stays the same as the hero |
