Turning off the CODOs

#1 Post by carlinho »

first of all: praise to lord yak, maker of the best AoS ever seen.

BUT:

isn´t it possible to turn off those nasty ugly codos?

when battle rages, drumming codo-rider-animations appear. they: make it difficult to actually see whats going on (quite disturbing, since it happens frequently in critical situations) AND they slow down the gameplay (i have a very weak system;).

so PLEASE lord yak - make those codos go away! (or replace them by something more decent;).

thank you very much!

Assuming you mean kodos...those only appear if you're playing on an outdated version of wc3. Patch it.

If you're playing on the most recent version, then let me know becuase its some other issue I've never heard of.

Maybe he means stampede? >_>

If you mean the ability Stampede, goto the ability in object editor and change Art - Missile Art then select the thing in the list, then click "Edit Model" to change or remove it's "Missile Art". If you want nothing, under custom, have the text ".mdl" then hit "OK".

Its a known "bug" of EotA that large amount of kodos disturb your gameplay.

Actually they're called CODOs, and they really need to get turned off.

Even after patching CODOs don't disappear. Shame, really, but patching is good anyway)
Is there a way to just type before game something like "-codos 0" with other commands? Would appreciate that in new version.
Best wishes, Farelios

I believe it's an issue with Widgetizer messing with the caster models. Though if that's the case I think everybody would see kodos, not just one person.

Suppose goes here all the same. When Gravel casts tremor(especially high-lewel spell), giant human casle appears, in fact so big, you can see only bits from inside it, and those bits also tremble. Pretty messy and stuns gameplay.
PS - screenshoter died after patching. Just black screenshots. What the?

I assume you mean Gravel by saying stone golem? You had me confused there.

I play Gravel frequently and always max out tremor, and have never seen and kodos/castles running around. Like Yak said, patch it.

Or get a PC if your using a MAC. :roll:
