hey there, I created a hero spell based on raise dead. everything works smoothly, but for some reason the caster keeps playing it's "spell" animation in a loop until it is issued a new order. I thought maybe changing the spell to be based on the item version would help, but it still happened. I...

Hello everyone ! For those who read my previous posts, it seems I can't get things to work as intended since I have tried to implement my "Torrefaction" custom spell. Don't get me wrong, it is actually working, and when the Balls or Flying Balls are roasting, the countdown progress bar I added...

I tried putting 'stand alternate' in the string field for the 'Art--Required Animation Names' attribute for the object of interest (whose model has a 'stand alternate' animation I want to activate). Thanks.

Hello everyone ! As some might have read recently, I made a custom spell that changes my attacking creeps (Balls) into "Roasting" versions. As I could not transform the unit properly with changing animation as the portrait did not change (even with Chaos or other metamorphosis spells, I opted...

Any idea on how to make the model: Wall Door (Tilesets: Cityscape, Dalaran, Dalaran ruins), that comes along with the new castle wall models, have an <open door> animation trigger? My guess would be that there is no animation yet and you'd have to make one by yourself via the model editor.

After following Fingolfin's guide which includes a link to an MDL exporter for Blender, I only have one problem: exporting a model with animations quite frankly doesn't work. Is there a way to properly animate in Blender for Warcraft III models? If not, what are my alternatives? Can I import a...

Hi everyone, I was playing around in the World Editor and noticed trees animations are actually there and showed up both inside model preview and when placed on the terrain itself. However, there is no way that I've found to make them play such animations in game. I am dumb or it's somehow bugged?

Can someone add to an Stand and Walk animation from wolf (timber wolf.. spirit wolf.. any wolf...) on Gryphon Rider ? ps: don't need delete the normal flying stand / walk animations of gryphon rider.

So I made an edit of a model where he uses an axe instead of a ball and chain. The walk animation does not suit the axe, because it appears as if he's using it as a cane. I wanted to make it look like he's dragging the axe, but I'm very bad at it and the result is very jittery. I'm hoping...

Hey, sorry for the trouble. Is there a way to make gates open their doors in the other direction than in the game's default which is facing south? I assume the models have to be rotated in a model editor somehow? For the second request, there's this structure doodad which doesn't have any fire...

Is there a way to choose a specific animation to play for special effects? Like play Attack - 1 or Attack - 2. I know you can do this using Animation Index for units. Edit: BlzPlaySpecialEffect(SpecialEffectName, ConvertAnimType(19)) This works for Special Effects.

Hi Hive I'm making a sort of "motion blur" movement speed ability, and it almost works perfectly. The trigger gives some movement speed abilities and such to the caster, but it also does a loop every 0.20 seconds which creates a transparent clone of the Hero. The clone starts with 60%...

Ok. So on the next step on my journey, I have this model I want to animate it with Demonhunter model movements. How do I go about doing that? The only animation software I have atm is blender, I'd imagine it would be simple if I could just link key points to the model. There has to be an easier...
