I've noticed that there are green sparkles that circle around specific buttons in the palantir, I'm guessing it's a 2d animation? Where is this defined in the ini and how do you add it to an image? And how do you change the flashing damage on a heros portrait?

When you say "green sparkles", are you refering to the AutoAbility indicator?

I've never tried editing either of these things before, but I'm guessing that it's made through the APT files. Just my two cents.

You set an auto ability through coding. It gets the sparkle look when you set it..

Well, yes you allow buttons to have the autoability feature through coding, but I thought you had to right-click on it ingame to set it?

Maybe I just don't get what you mean. :p

When coding new abilities you have to code in the auto ability code. That's what i men't Posted ImageYou can give it to any button that isn't a summon, For example if i want Blade Master to be an auto ability then in Command Button under Blade Master i would put AutoAbility = Yes. and then when you right click it in game the little sparkly things go around it depending on the graphics setting

Yeah, but that's completely......NOT the point. :crazed:

fienx001 wants to modify the visual element. ;)

Yuppers... To do that go looking through the apt files until you find the one that has it.. Then you can change the colors and stuff... Posted Image
