^ the animation is pretty out of this description, there's nothing except a red lighting and some red sparkles ... No "turn it inside-out" at all

Proposal:
When Lion successfully kills an enemy with Finger of Death, let that enemy's blood, guts, fleshes and bones out. Inside-out whee

To prevent contradiction with heroes who have long death animation, the corpse of heroes killed with Finger of Death should be removed right when proposed animation starts.

Additional suggestions:
Dead Vigilante: make the lighting effect darker and purple (I can smell an adult version of Barney

)
Shinig4mi: gore levels are different when you have Scepter and when you don't

(Hardcore gore > PG gore, buy Scepter!

)

Bad screenshots, use the test map for better quality

yeah i was thinking of that. make enemies explode when they get killed by finger of death. just for the flashies.

Zirath · 08-20-2009, 03:53 PM

Sure, why not. I always personally thought that Finger of Death was too much like Laguna Blade and should be changed cosmetically but this is good too. I would lol at people going pop.

Kewl, some gore to DotA.

[EA]Zero · 08-20-2009, 04:51 PM

wow, nice. T-Up.

kanzakill · 08-20-2009, 10:18 PM

Some comments but yet no one checked the test map

Is it because of the bad screenshots?

I will try to fix the screenshots as fast as possible. Should I change the lighting so it'll be less dark?

The blood effect appears when the unit allrdy lays on the ground...that looks a little bit stupid. Let the blood appear when the lighting hits the target. And maybe add another effect for other heros like nagas or tiny because they dont have red blood.
generally i like the idea T-up

Siraraz · 08-20-2009, 11:42 PM

Well, the testmap is bad quality to be honest. I'll come up with one for you xD

qlq · 08-20-2009, 11:47 PM

LOL the test map is win^^
I like it anyway, T-up.

I used to think like that. It was a mess with blood an guts flying out at the same time, not very amusing

So I put some intervals between the effects. Try the test map. Then use War3 Editor to open it and remove the intervals. You'll see the difference

(open trigger editor, look at trigger 001)

And actually, you can't say which is blood and which are fleshes by these animations. Try the test map, you'll see

there's some greeny things to fits those heroes.

Thank you!

But hey, you haven't even clicked on my test map, how could you know?

Suspect-o'-meter is going high

Weird

Why my browser still shows that no one has viewed the test map?

Siraraz · 08-20-2009, 11:55 PM

Then the forum is broken.
(It doesn't happen when it dies, its every time you cast it, finding out if unit died from FInger of Death is not working for some reason.....)

NoThlnG · 08-20-2009, 11:57 PM

T-UP. This is awesome

That is an overkill man

The only purpose of the test map was to show the effects, other matters will be take care later if this suggestion is chosen. You put in a hella lot of codes that make me dizzy just by reading them

Moreover, you removed my joke

No T-up please

Just saying "Free bump for the gore!" is enough

Well, I don't think it needs a buff or nerf since it's a visual effect... ^^

So, I can't comment on it except giving a T-Up...

Rofl.

vJASS is easy once you learn it. I'm glad I burnt your eyes with black text xD
I don't like using the GUI waits so I did that ^^

Can you tell me where I could learn it please. Right now I only know Pascal and Visual Basic, humiliating

Back to the topic:
Should I add Manaroth's green blood, just to increase the gore?

EseQueL · 08-21-2009, 06:46 AM

awgh!!!!! disgusting!
BTW, lion is copy cat, i want remake!

Siraraz · 08-21-2009, 07:25 AM

.... err....... go to sites like TheHelper or ClanMapz or wc3c... you can learn there. vJASS is a wrapper for JASS basically.

I have a better testmap now!

FEATURES:
- Lightning fades out rather than instantly.
- Extra red bangs on enemy for pretties.
- Happens ONLY if target dies.
