The special spawn effect for Flame Stirke doesn't work?

I've tried to get the big *boom* for Flame Stirke to come out. But I've gotten no progress at it. By the way, the spell is based off of Fan of Knives.

First off, I tried to make a dummy unit of the big *boom*

nothing

Then I made a doodad of the big *boom*

nothing

Then I made a trigger for the big *boom*

nothing

The pillars that appear next to the big *boom* work fine, but the big *boom* itself doesn't show up, unless you use a spell spell like Shockwave, or Flame Strike. Can anyone figure out what I'm doing wrong? Or does the spawn effect not work at all?

the boom i think is when the fire ignites, which is at the birth ability.

It probably has to do with the animations which the model uses. Maybe it uses the "birth" animation for shockwave and flamestrike, but you're putting it in situations where it's using "stand" and that's blank. Or something similar to that. I'm not looking at WE right now, but you should investigate that a bit and see if it's your problem.
