As much as I really hope they will use skins as something you unlock via playing... I am well decade past knowing better. They are likely going to sell more of those.I really miss the old times, when those were unlocks for doing cool stuff in game and enjoying it. Back when game developers were still in business of making games and not putting that far behind monetization to get every cent out of players. WC3 and TFT are two relics of that era. Even if skins weren't a thing. It is shame we are unlikely to see that time to return, time of developers making game with no bull**** attached. Now Activision even can't stop turning remaster in live services. Remember, remember, Crash Team Racing, a game that that got remastered and fell to live service... :-DAnd yeah, that Activision in Activision Blizzard is worrying.
Jaina is my wow alliance waifu i am so happy she is in the game and i am so glad i will get to have her in my collection
I'm not saying Jaina doesn't look amazing—she does—but does anyone else think she might have applied her eye shadow a bit too liberally? She straight-up looks like she's trying to do her best Kesha impression.That aside, these look great! Does anyone know how these unique skins actually work? Like does it only work for the campaign Jaina unit, or can I apply the skin to any Archmage unit in-game, i.e., during multiplayer/custom games?EDIT: Regarding my question, I should've just read the article:
Does anyone know the model file path in the editor for tese?I found female deathknight, demonhunter and evil king arthas but not jaina yet.
If you want to use this not only change the skins on an already placed unit, but alter the models/icons in the Object Editor (F6) here is the list:Daughter of the Sea JainaModel - units\human\Jainasea\Jainasea.mdlIcon - ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNJainasea.blpFemale Demon HunterModel - Units\NightElf\HeroFemaleDemonHunter\HeroFemaleDemonHunter.mdlIcon - ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNHeroFemaleDemonhunter.blpFemale Death KnightModel - Units\Undead\HeroFemaleDeathknight\HeroFemaleDeathknight.mdlIcon - ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNHeroFemaleDeathknight.blpCenarius of the Emerald NightmareModel - Units\NightElf\CenariusNightmare\CenariusNightmare.mdlIcon - ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNCenariusNightmare.blpWorld Shaman ThrallModel - units\orc\ThrallChampion\Thrallchampion.mdlIcon - ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNThrallChampion.blpFallen King ArthasModel - Units\Undead\FallenKingArthas\FallenKingArthas.mdlIcon - ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNFallenKingArthas.blp-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Or you can use triggers like I mostly did in Trigger Editor (F4)Which can look like this (Thrall is in this example):EventsUnit - A unit enters (Playable map area)Conditions(Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to YOUR HEROActionsUnit - Set Unit Skin of (Triggering unit) to 'Ofth'OR (Custom script works better, because sometimes it does not allow to change the 4 letter unit ID, allows numbers only)I recommend this one:EventsUnit - A unit enters (Playable map area)Conditions(Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to YOUR HEROActionsCustom script: call BlzSetUnitSkin( GetTriggerUnit(), 'Ofth' )If you are not sure which ID to type to a certain hero you can use CTRL+D in Object Editor, it will write you every unit / building item upgrade etc ID. It will help you in Abilities section, as every data line has a different ID. By using triggers to alter skins, it also alter the voice (which also can be change in Object Editor), but the Icon remains the original unit's icon, you can use the basic Jaina or Thrall icon, but for Emerald Nightmare Cenarius works better his unique icon not the original one. In also you need to change proper names, staying with example if you change the hero skin to Thrall by triggers, icon remains the old, voice become new, but name stay old aswell. You need to rename edit / add / delete proper names. (If you have the collections, names, voice skins all will be altered by default.)-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------If you can't find the voice names here is the list:Daughter of the Sea Jaina - DaughterOfTheSeaJaina Female Demon Hunter - HeroFemaleDemonHunter / HeroFemaleDemonHunterMorphedFemale Death Knight - HeroFemaleDeathKnightCenarius of the Emerald Nightmare - NCenarWorld Shaman Thrall - FarseerThrall Fallen King Arthas - FallenKingArthasI was testing a lot to find these.I do hope someone reads / appreciates it.Have fun
