Hi, I have a question about how to make a proper Terran unit with Protoss shield on it.

I made a Auto-Turret, with its Shield Maximum and Shield Starting Amount = 500.

The shield works, but when something hits it, it does not flick (the shield flicking effect which any Protoss unit should have).

What should I do to get that effect to work on Terran's Auto-Turret?

In the data editor, go to your unit.

Quote
Go to : UI - Shield Armor Name > double click and input in "Text Key:" the following >> "Unit/ShieldArmorName/ProtossPlasmaShields"
Below should appear Protoss Plasma Shields

Step 2.)
Models>"Model of your unit">
Attachment Properties +
- Add value: e_attachRef_Origin, set Shield Radius above 0, it requiries some tweakin here, Squib type Shield

Quick note, IMPORTANT
You MUST attach the value to ORIGIN because any other unlegit point will make the shields distorted in scale, you Can howevere add multiple shields to multple LEGIT points souch as weapon01 or target01 or any bone you find on your model, this will not add extra shield, it will only add "more" shields popping up if the missle hits that radius, so you can add 10 shield effects to loki model, it will appear that every single piece of metal on that ship has a shield of its own, it works...

Got that from thehelper.net.
