lol npnp, thanks for he advice - but those are just numbers that i can fix later.. i can't even get this to work, there are no tutorials or assets that i can look at it to see how its done :/ I'm just interested in how to make a rpg like attribute system. http://www.sc2mapster.com/assets/diablo-attribute-system/ here's the link to the original

Quote from DrSuperEvil: Go

1. Under the Unit type actor for the unit the Art: Model (Portrait) field and the UI: Unit Icon fields

2. Use the SOpAttachOrigin SOp. Else use a SOp (Local Offset) Sop to lower it.

thanks a lot, but i'm still having issue with the portrait, its all weird and black like in the picture i think it has something to do with the actor events- maybe?

1. How can I change these portrait type thingies?

2. I am trying to make a wc3 like aura visual effect, how can i move the zerg beacon down to its feet? (base in wc3 editor)

Thanks in advance :)

In my opinion if a library forces you to do this much work but you cannot get it to work off the bat you should code a system yourself.

Barring that, what asset are you using? Your description is rather vague.

The asset is literally called, Diablo Attribute Type System lol.

Quote from GlornII: Go

I have made a system like this... and then remade it to be much more efficient. Here is a video which includes it:

If that is what you are looking for in concept; then I can send you the system; it is pretty customizable, and can be copy/pasted without too much effort.

Woah nice map there, I used to play that in wc3 years years back lol.

OT: Yea that is kind of what I'm looking for. IT would be great if i can get a copy, except I'm pretty bad with dialogs. If anyone's played Dragon Quest RPG - it's one of the top played rpg systems on arcade - The system that game uses to upgrade attribute points, is exactly what I'm looking for. On leveling up your character, you get attribute points that you can use to upgrade the behaviors (i.e. str, agi) on your unit.

Hiya guys, I've recently been playing with the ^ asset and managed to copy it into a little map.

My map includes a hero, with 4 rpg like attributes called psi, core, void, and force. Upon level up, I'm supposed to gain 5 attribute points which I can spend, but for some reason the max count for the attributes points are stuck at 5, and the dialog label number indicating how many attributes I have left to spend doesn't quite fit in the dialog box.

Here are the triggers that manipulate the attributes upon level up and use.

I also have a bit of trouble understanding how to control the inventory spaces for containers. If someone can help me a bit here - that would be great.

@TacoManStan: Go

thanks a lot, i guess ill try it my self i'm 100% sure ill have problems with the skill, ill keep you updated and if you could help me out with it that would be great. :)

@grenegg: Go

oh goodie, i hope then it's not too hard to do..

I have a question grenegg, I do have a little bit of mod editing experience with warcraft 3 maps, do you think i'll be able to handle making a unit like this?

@hawkerhurricane: Go

oh.. sorry for wrong area x.x

where should i post it?

Hi guys, I would be really appreciate if anyone could make this custom unit for me. The biggest reason for this request is because - I don't have the skills to make it and don't have the time to learn it either. I'm a really newbie when it comes to games. I just want to have the joy of raping AI's with a flying manta like creature that pews banelings.

I want this unit to be based on a brood lord model, but instead of throwing broodlings it throws banelings at its targets. I want Banel Lord to be able to hold a maximum of 1 unit at a one time. Note that leveling up a passive skill can exceed this cap - I’ll talk about more about this below.

Name: Banel Lord

Basic Stats:
Base Hit Points: 250
Base Shield Points: 100
Base Energy Points: 40
Base Damage: 40
Base Move Speed: 2.5
Base Armor: 4
Base Attack Speed: 1.7
Base Attack Range: 10
Sight Radius: 17
Base Hp Regen: 0.3 health per second
Base Energy Regen: 0.0
Base Shield Regen: 0.3 shield per second

Custom Attribute Stats - Look below for more info
Starts out at Base*
Str = 25* + 3.2 Per Level
Agi= 20* + 2.5 Per Level
Int = 15* + 1.5 Per Level

Please note that, the Banel Lord does not receive bonuses from any zerg upgrades and the same thing goes for a baneling produced by a banel lord.

_____________
It would be great if you could make it a leveling up hero type unit (goes up to level 15) with 7 attributes: 4 custom 3 presets– I’m not worried about experience points so whatever you like is fine, just please make sure you make a cheat code that gives it auto level 15.
Customs:
‘Str’ – 1 point of str gives
- + 0.05 health regen per sec
- + 5 max hit points
- + 0.167 damage (1/6 so every 6 str is one damage)

‘Agi’ – 1 point of agi gives
- + 0.03 shield regen per sec
- + 3 max shield points
- + 1% attack speed
- + 0.1 armor
‘Int’ – 1 point of int gives
- + 0.08 energy regen per sec
- + 4 max energy points

‘Hero Unit’
- immune to all spells
Presets:
Armored, Biological, Massive

_____________
At the moment I want it to just have one passive skill.

Skill 1 Name: Baneling Mastery
Type: Passive
Mana Cost: None
Pre-Requisites: None
Level – Able at: 1, 4, 9, 15

This skill is what I was talking about earlier – it enables Banel Lord to hold a maximum of 4 banelings total at level 4. Effects of the passive skill are at
Level 1 ~ 4
- + 3/6/9/12 base damage
- + 0.5/1.0/1.5/2.0 base armor
- + 0.25/0.5/0.75/1.00 base move speed
- - 0.15/0.25/0.35/0.45 base attack speed (so increases attack speed drastically)
- + 0/1/2/3 to total maximum banelings allowed to hold (so 1 at level 1, 2 at level 2, 3 at level 3, and 4 at level 4)

• 
  
• - Baneling Stats (copy a normal baneling’s stats except for new stats stated)
  o 15/20/25/30 max health
  o 5/10/15/20 explode damage against all armors/15/20/25/30 explode damage against buildings
  o 2.0/2.5/3.0/3.5 move speed
  

I know its rigged so please don’t comment on that.
If you have any special effects that you wanna add to it, like glows or attachments go ahead.
It would be great if you could add this unit to any 10-person blizzard melee map or just teach me how to import it. – Understand that I’m not trying to hack maps, I just wanna play against bots and own them.
Thank you in advance, if there are any spelling errors or suggestions you would like to give please reply.

I want this ability - when casted - instantly damages an AoE just in front of the casting unit based on the amount of behavior "agility" while filtering out itself, allied units, invulerable, and etc.. The problem is, It doesn't deal the exact amount of number of "agility" i have on my hero.

P.S. can someone enlighten me on the measurement 'units'? I don't really know how to control my radius, and how far distances are.

hi all, i made an actor with based on model and CActorModel the only fields I edited were the model, events, and host site operations

for model i gave it: brood lord events: unitbirth.archon -> create host site operations: SopAttachOrigin

what i want it to do, is attach a brood lord model to the archon, but the brood lord attachment wont show up in game

thx in advanced

!New Question!:

I have a spell (instant type), which - when casted - creates an actor that plays an attack animation along with the casting unit. How can I get them to play the same attack animations?

My Thank You Box

@Torrak: Go

thanks dude ^^

!New Question!:

How can I issue a string command such as spell, and attack when a unit casts a spell?

Solved**

Is it possible? I'm trying to make a skill that does damage base on an attribute.
