Well,

my World Editor plays a hide & seek joke with me.

When working in editors (Object, Campaign, etc, only not on trigger editor) the screen become blanked on the list of icons and names.
Need to minimize/maximize or alternate tabs to view the stuff again.

Why?
Does yours do the same?

Tx for advance

Your computer hates you. <-- Thats my only guess...you might want to check your vid card, directx, prefences of your WE, and then consider getting a new computer.

its so boring that eveytime you conect to battle.net that massive download of atualizations

Look at the Clipboar002.jpg, the campaign editor. The maps list is blank.

When I test my map from the editor, the window I pressed the "Test Map" button is always on top after I quit WC3; it's impossible to get other windows above it. It's strange.

Hey, this happened to me yesterday.

I couldnt use Firefox or MSN until restart the World Editor.

Its surely a bug.

But what about my problem?
Doesnt occur with yours?

Cracked versions?

Or possibly...oh noes viruses?

Either you have those 2 things, or again your settings are messed up.

I dislike cracked games when I really love them. Thats the case of W3. I love it!
Its original.
I´m thinking about to write a note to Blizzard asking about this error.

Virus isnt the cause for sure.

Maybe the setting of my monitor´s resolution?
No. I tested on another monitor with a lower resolution, and still blanked the lists.

I want to know if is there a way to reinstall only the editor.... Maybe works...

Nothing like that, no. Just that it keeps in front of all other windows. Minimizing it works though.

And an other question: Have you always been able to blink down to deep water?

Have you tried using a different editor?
If this bug happens on normal, try using an edited WE, like NewGen. If your using an edited WE, try on the original.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
