[Solved] Bugged NE and undead birth animations (1.31)

[cleavinghammer]

So today the undead and night elf birth animations for buildings (the claws/roots that come out of the ground) just stopped playing across all maps (custom, melee, and campaign), on 1.31. The building model itself seems unaffected, you're just left staring at a patch of gray/green ground until it finishes constructing.

I'd noticed graphics bugs before (notably larges patches of terrain blinking on and off), but this is a first.

Did anyone else get this? Did you manage to fix it?

Used to happen before:
Warcraft 3 building bug
UD/NE building bug
Missing Building Animations : WC3
graphics error? cant see night elf buildings before they complete : WC3

Some said it happened on minimize/Alt+Tab and had to restart their OS.

In my case it's probably because I hadn't shut down the computer for so long, alt-tabbing doesn't see to hurt that much.

No need to call a tech center, I turned it on and off and it works again.
