Bug Report

[Fan_of_Aeroblyctos]

A weird bug in the last mission.

I wanted to try mass batriders to kill the dwarf base. I build 12 buildings, and when the 12 batrides are supposed to appear, nothing. I see the shadow of each one of them, I see the food rising, but I cannot see nor select the unit. If I build a second one in each building, second shadow, but the unit does not appear. Weird bug. I do not know if that's related to the map or the wc3 version.

 

[Zergy]

Shar Dundred, another bug I have noticed with Pechan's base. Hero is active but doesn't move out with his boys. Then when he was slain in battle, but he wasn't revived throughout the entire mission. Better to look up your Jass code again, Master.

 

[Shar Dundred]

Kas tested after it was reported and could not reproduce the issue.
What version are you on?

 

[jitao]

Okay now there's a problem with oneeye. 3 of my skills points went into venom strike and now that has been removed. So i have a level 5 hero with level 1 wind walk and endurance aura. Now i go back to playing burning home mission to get a respec and redfist are doing too much crit damage on my units.

 

[Shar Dundred]

I highly recommend to play Act Five, Chapter Two again to avoid issues with Oneeye's skills in the future!

I wrote that back when I updated the chapter and changed his abilities in March last year.

 

[Zergy]

What version are you on?

1.30

 

[Ravager16829]

1.30

Higher versions than 1.29.2 is not recommended as the author suggested.
Please try playing the campaign on that version. There will be no more bugs.

 

[Shar Dundred]

I will take another look at the AI just to be sure.
I will also replace the Batrider model with the fixed version.

 

[Apprentice Darkmoon]

The hint repeats several times.

 

[HuanJuan]

End of Act Seven

the lat bit

 

[Shar Dundred]

@Apprentice Darkmoon @HuanJuan Both fixed per hotfix

 

[HuanJuan]

Act 8 Chapter 1 - Ending cinematic -

help you help you

 

[HuanJuan]

Act 7 Chapter 7

Sasrogarn doing nothing during the battle, just staying behind lines and staring the road there. How useful guy he is!

This is going to be "nit picking", but Spiritcaller using throwing spears, not magic to attack - so it's not big of a deal -. I just discovered this interesting fact, nothing to see here.

All the footmen in my game are colored on their animated potraits on ANY of the campaigns.
I am using 1.35 and this problem does not happen in the 1.27 version (Sadly the second books aren't available on those patches).

I am using the official custom campaign feature in the game, or do you need the quenching mod to fix this? Please, I really want to play this amazing campaign without this issue ;-;

The problem is the original author won't probably fix technical issues with all of his campaigns relating to Reforged 1.35.
So far, if you want to enjoy Arkain storyline without known problems, the only solution was to play on 1.29.2.

Thanks ChatGPT!

I am using 1.35 and this problem does not happen in the 1.27 version (Sadly the second books aren't available on those patches).

You could try something, opening the campaign in the editor and saving it with the 1.35 editor. See if that fixes it. If it doesn't you could try doing that after saving each individual map within the campaign file (.w3n) with the 1.35 editor (if the maps aren't protected).

 

[Zergy]

Chapter: Horse and Rider:
@Shar Dundred I have another bug and I have proof to back up my claim. Golbin Warmechs are having a hot Key conflict with War Zepplins

 

[Sizzle666]

Love the campaign only got reforged so i could play arkain when i found out they were adding custom campaigns, im on orc book 1 mission 9 and it just crashes as soon as i get into it? is there a fix for this plz and thank you x

Shar Dundred won't probably help you if there was a problem playing Arkain campaigns on Reforged, preferably 1.35.
The best patch for playing Arkain campaigns was 1.29.2.

 

[Shar Dundred]

It is interesting though as the described bug is usually found in either pre 1.29.2 or cracked versions.

Anyway, the original books are no longer updated and supported.

 

[Navy45]

The newest update has Brokta's leadership researchable but it has no effect on the maulers, magi and overlord. For example, the maulers we start with and the ones we train have 1350 hp before and after the research (and the same attack/defense).

 

[Shar Dundred]

Uploaded a hotfix, works now.

 

[Karmondia]

Brockta's leadership bonus still doesn't work properly. It increases armor by 2 and attack by 5, but doesn't increase their hp by 200.

 

[Shar Dundred]

The tooltip is incorrect then. Gonna fix that in the next update.

 

[nchp1903]

Not really a major bug, but a small visual one, one that I actually know how to fix.

Plague Bomb's ground effect still doesn't appear properly because the effect's model is Disease Cloud (units\undead\PlagueCloud\PlagueCloud.mdl). However, simply changing it to Disease <Target> (Units\Undead\PlagueCloud\PlagueCloudtarget.mdl) makes it work properly.

The only difference between the two is that the former has a Birth animation, which may explain this weird phenemenon. Additionally, I'll attach a Green Flame Strike in case anyone has a use for it.

 

[Shar Dundred]

A lil heads up for those who already downloaded the update I just posted:
Because WC3 Editor decided to be annoying, a summon spell bugged out. I just uploaded a hotfix.
Enjoy!

Edit: And another hotfix because of a bug in the ending cinematic.

 

[Zergy]

Bug Report in the end cinematic of the latest Chapter: Gothog still kills his pet Hydra just you should know Shar.

Also: Your hotkey issue with War Zepplin and War Mech in Horse and Rider still hasn't been fixed.

 

[VastanX]

Did someone have this file size when download the new version?
Every time I download the file, this version came up.

 

[nchp1903]

Weird. I just tried redownloading the campaign from the Map Section and the filesize comes out as normal. I'll attach it here in case it's still buggy for you.

 

[VastanX]

thank you. This one works.

Let me know if this keeps happening. I recall this having been a Hive error in the past.
If it continues to be like that even after future updates, I'll inform Ralle.

I will guess that this is my cue to say that it has been a recurring problem for me since the download of the campaign is done on its campaign page and not directly available in the News thread. I can eventually get it right, but I haven't been able to download any new version of LoA in one go without a failure of the download or ending with an incomplete file since then.

You guys, have you tried the Legacy Download button instead of the big DOWNLOAD one?

 

[Ralle]

@Hardric62 do you have Discord? I would very much like to see this happen. Send me a DM if we can set something up.

 

[Karmondia]

Slaves of the Demons has a different side quest in the Log and in the Quests menu:

 

[Zergy]

@Shar Dundred. I found another Bug. It involves the Gnoll Mystic. Having a Lighting Shield as its second Ability instead of Forked Lighting. And its training description clearly tells Froked Lightning even though you clearly have it Lighting Shield?
There is also a bug where the fire golems huddle in one area at the upper part of the map, not attacking the Player's base. Your AI must be funky again.

 

[Shar Dundred]

Are you using iseedeadpeople?

 

[Zergy]

Are you using iseedeadpeople?

Nope, I just noticed some of the Golems were just huddling at the upper part of the Red fist base not attacking the Player's base. This part of the map I described is where Zelech and his goons were chilling. Initially, I used the cheat on my first run when you initially released the chapter.

But on my second try, I didn't. And During my 2nd run, I was alerted and I was being attacked, and then that was where I saw 4 to 6 Golems attacking my reinforcing units out of nowhere. I realized that most of the enemy golems were just huddling near the upper part of the Zelech's base. Not inside the enemy base exactly. They get stuck in trees...

 

[Shar Dundred]

If those golems were summoned by Zelech's ability while attacked, they are not supposed to attack your base.

 

[Zergy]

So your telling me Zelech summond those Golems out from Ability? So Im guessing he summond them while he was dealing with Harpies Ive unleashed?

I will try to gather more evidence to back up my claim. This also includes the Mystics' Tool tip Bug

 

[Zergy]

Update from the Bug Encountered. 4 out of 5 Bugs I have found were confirmed. While the last one is just an ability I saw witnessed happening.

Bug 1 Mystic Ability vs Tool tip:

Bug 2: Blood Hound Upgrade is in Barracks:

Bug 3 Gnoll Assassin upgrades cannot be found anywhere:

Bug 4 kindly makes the Gnoll Brawler Frenzy auto-cast. Because every time I trained a new one it doesn't seem to be automatically cast.

Bug 5: About the Golems that were huddling. @Shar Dundred, you were right about The Golems coming from Zelechs ability. I just witnessed it myself after I unleashed another round of Harpies on him.

 

[Navy45]

I was replaying through the true story and found that in slaves of the demons (Act 2 chapter 3) the message for the optional quest is the one from Dead men's march (about the hidden demon slave base) instead of the right one (about the demon shrine).

 

[nchp1903]

In Lord of the Golden Guards, Militias, Vanguards, and Templars also benefit from Holy Crusade of van Durce, despite not stated in the Boni's description.

 

[Plantpaladin]

Cant get the Cliffhunter clan Death to trigger in Utter Destruction. Killed red first. Even restarted and used cheats to see whole map but nothing. Running 1.29

 

[Thicondrious]

Got same thing, seems the trigger for the objective include the units to the south of the Cliffhunter base aswell.

 

[Kasrkin]

Not sure what's the matter did a quick cheat run to see if I could catch anything.

 

[Zergy]

I did catch some bugs...
Bug 1:
The End Cinematic with Okri and Destroyer was all whacked! Okri suddenly died against the Big Demon machine and I keep seeing shockwaves even though Okri Died. The other gameplay was fine. It's just the Cinematic had some errors.

Bug 2:
Also, you said that this is the Ejara Nexus we playing or the Rohir. Cause Why is the main undead force white? I thought the Scarrec took the color?? I was expecting the main player force to be either sky blue or Red. Not Ornasions Force or Scarrec.

 

[HuanJuan]

I can't complete the map, because I destroyed all the Orc bases, and there is no "Quest Completed". I cannot proceed to the next quest. I don't used cheats, I played on 1.29 version.

The same, but I managed to complete it by killing the Salrians as well (perhaps it's due to them being included in the Cliffhunter Clan variable?).

 

[Shar Dundred]

Uploaded a hotfix.
Cliffhunter should be able to get destroyed now & player color is corrected as well as some other minor tweaks.
