Cinematics interface

[Datnes]

Hi, I set up the cinematics mode to on but there is no cinematic interface where is unit s portrait (talking face) and text. Instead of that, there is only showing name of the unit and text which the units talks.

That usually happens when the talking unit is missing. Either something's wrong with the reference or the unit is removed or dead.

Try either of those actions

• Cinematic - Turn off letterbox mode (show interface) for (All players): fade in over 2.00 seconds
• Cinematic - Hide Cinematic Panels False

I might be out of date on this but usually you have to go out of your way for that effect if I understand it correctly.

Picture for clarity? (if the above answer(s) don't fix it)

It only shows game interface of each player but not cinematic interface.

Is it set to "all player"?

 

[Datnes]

yes

Can you post your trigger?

Worth noting, if you are playing on the latest patch of Reforged with the Reforged graphics mode, the unit portrait is disabled by default. To enable it, simply go to "Gameplay" tab on the game settings and tick on "Show Portraits in Cinematics". If you are playing on the Classic graphics, the unit portrait will always appear.

If you are playing on the Reforged graphics mode with "Show Portraits in Cinematics" enabled, and you still encountered missing unit portrait problem, then there's something wrong with that "talking unit".

Where can i find the gameplay tab on the game settings?

Are you playing on the latest patch of the game? I assume you owned that game legitimately so that you can play online with friends on Battle.net and use the Reforged contents (either HD or the upscaled Classic graphics).

In order to make the unit portrait appear in HD mode, you have to go into the game settings (click on "Options" button), navigate to the "Gameplay" tab, and make sure the "Show Portraits in Cinematics" is checked, like this:

Side Note: You can only do this trick if you're playing on HD mode. Classic SD mode had always show the unit portraits due to the in-game mechanic, no matter if that option is enabled or not. If you're using the HD mode, and you may still experience the missing unit portraits, then you missed something, probably the triggers.

(That picture isn't based on my computer. I've taken it from one of the Discord posts in Warcraft 3 United server).
