Greetings Hive,

A very weird problem, I have.
For my dummy units I enter ".mdl" in the custom models section so nothing shows up. It worked wonderfully without problems until today (first time I tried it since the new patch). The dummy was supposed to fire warstomp but it doesn't appear to work. I've checked if the spell fires and it does, it just appears that the sfx don't appear.
However, once I returned a normal model to the dummy, it worked right.

What is this issues with the models and can it be solved?
EDIT: I also tried the Tree of Life upgrade art and it still doesn't work.

If you are trying to attach the SFX (during the spell) to the model which isn't shown, the SFX won't appear. I suggest using dummy.mdx with five attachment points, it has weight of 1kb and can be found in most maps in spellsection.
