Okay i have a protoss cannon, and i want to see the psi storm animation on projectile impact. So I created an effect set containing the photon cannon damage and the psi storm persistant effect and replaced the photon cannon damage effect with the set, but unfortunatly I don't see a psi storm! The damage works, but the psi storm does not :( how can I simply attach the psistorm animation to the impact effect ?
edit: Impact Location - Effect in the photon cannon damage effect does not work with psi storm either :/
edit: okay i did this now:
I have the normal damage effect + a self made persistant effect which is linked to a model Actor through the actors events (start: create, stop: animStop BSD). Those 2 effects are combined in an effect set which replaced the photon cannons damage effect. The thing is: the damage effect works (-> the set does what it's supposed to do) but the psi storm animation is not visible. Halp!
Found out how to do it!!
Damage display Effect must not be a set it has to be the regular Damage Effect. All visual effects go into an effect set that I put in the regular "Effect" field. Now it works properly, looks pretty nice :D

I tinkered around with something like this using an archon
You need to edit the damaging effect to {Psyonic Storm (Persistent)} then set the impact effect to {Psyonic Storm (Search)} or something like that.
