Cinematic Icons dont show up

[Thendar]

Like the title says, I have a problem with making a cinematic (transmission)

I turned cinematic mode on, the text appears and so does the sound. Only the Icon of the "speaking" character doesnt appear.
I assume it appeared with one of the latest patch, this bug wasnt there before.
Any solutions?

Is it black? Is the unit missing/hidden?

 

[Thendar]

the frame is pitch black, no silhouette or anything.
Just for a side question, I updated my wc3 etc. but it still tells me that I have an outdated version when I want to open maps in the editor. Might that be the problem and if it is, how do I solve it? (Its just wierd because wc3 is up to date)

 

[UndeadImmortal]

Saving the map should update it to the latest version. Make a backup first just in case.

 

[Thendar]

I mean it says that my editor is outdated when I launch my map. More like if I launch any map

 

[UndeadImmortal]

Weird. Installation must've messed up I guess... Try installing another copy of Warcraft 3 on a different folder, then open your map from that folder's editor. See if it fixes anything.

 

[Thendar]

Tryed reinstalling, launching it from the game etc, nothing seems to work. Might I ask if you could download my map? I cant tell if its the problem of my own wc3 or a general one

Do you have a misc file inside a war3.mod folder?

Do you have a misc file inside a war3.mod folder?

Uh, I dont see one I think, not entire sure what it should be tbh.

 

[Lt_Hawkeye]

Alright then, is it possible that is a model related problem or trigger related problem?

 

[Thendar]

Imgur This his how it looks. I used standart models from wc3, clicked on them in the editor (they are on the map itself) and visible ingame

 

[UndeadImmortal]

Upload the map for us if you're comfortable with it. I'll check it on my side.

Does the model have a portrait version? If not that may be why nothing is showing up. But if it's a unit that used to work and doesn't anymore then you have a different problem on your hands

 

[Thendar]

Fort in Lorderon Its already on the side, linked it

@Veritas 117 it worked perfectly before I opened the map the last time in the editor (in 1.29 I think). With the new update it stopped working

Just tested some cinematics on other maps, they still work perfectly ( for example in War Sheep or Skibis Castle )

1.29 isn’t the most current patch. You should update if that’s what you’re on.

1.29 isn’t the most current patch. You should update if that’s what you’re on.

I said that I opened the map last in that patch. I updated my wc3 already and now it doesnt work anymore.

1.29 = it worked
1.3 something = stopped working

 

[Thendar]

I found out what caused it. When I opend the wc3 editor it used a older wc3 folder which was hidden somewhere (Like I start the map from the editor and exit it to the main menu it says its 1.27), even tho the world editor was in a folder with a 1.3 version. I deleted all of the other copies of wc3 and reinstalled the original one and it worked. Very wierd my dudes
