Ok, at the end of level 5, I save two of my heroes into a cache. I use this trigger to save them.

Code:
Actions
    Quest - Display to (All players) the Quest Completed message: QUEST COMPLETED!   ...
    Quest - Mark EvolusDead as Completed
    Quest - Mark Fountain as Completed
    Quest - Mark MainQuest as Completed
    Quest - Mark KandDAlive as Completed
    Selection - Clear selection for Player 4 (Purple)
    Selection - Clear selection for Player 11 (Dark Green)
    Wait 8.00 seconds
    Cinematic - Turn cinematic mode On for (All players)
    Cinematic - Fade out over 5.00 seconds using texture White Mask and color (0.00%, 0.00%, 0.00%) with 0.00% transparency
    Wait 6.00 seconds
    -------- ----- CACHE SAVING ----- --------
    Game Cache - Store Defnolicus 0028 <gen> as Defnolicus of Heroes in Cache
    Game Cache - Store Kymore (Evil) 0006 <gen> as Kymore of Heroes in Cache
    Game Cache - Save Cache
    Game - Save game as TOD5.w3z and change level to Maps\TOD 6.w3x (Skip scores)
    Game - Show custom campaign button 6
    Game - Victory Player 4 (Purple) (Show dialogs, Show scores)

My heroes load just fine in level 6. I load them with this trigger.

Code:
Actions
    -------- ----- BEGIN LOADING GAME CACHE ----- --------
    Game Cache - Create a game cache from Campaign02.w3v
    Set Cache = (Last created game cache)
    Game Cache - Restore Defnolicus of Heroes from Cache for Player 11 (Dark Green) at (Center of Defnolicus Cache Restore Region <gen>) facing (Position of Evolus Silverwind 0373 <gen>)
    Set Defnolicus = (Last restored unit)
    Game Cache - Restore Kymore of Heroes from Cache for Player 4 (Purple) at (Center of Kymore Cache Restore Region <gen>) facing (Position of Evolus Silverwind 0373 <gen>)
    Set Kymore = (Last restored unit)
    Game Cache - Clear Cache
    Game Cache - Save Cache

I then only save 1 hero at the end of level 6. with this trigger. ( there are other actions before it but we don't need those for this issue. I would assume when saving a unit again, I have to use the variable I set him as in the begining when I restored him?

Code:
Game - Show custom campaign button 7
    -------- ----- CACHE SAVING AGAIN ----- --------
    Game Cache - Store [B][U]Defnolicus [/U][/B]as Defnolicus of Heroes in Cache
    Game Cache - Save Cache
    Game - Save game as TOD6.w3z and change level to Maps\TOD 7.w3x (Skip scores)
    Game - Set the next level to Maps\TOD 7.w3x
    Game - Victory Player 4 (Purple) (Skip dialogs, Skip scores)

Now here is the trigger I used to load him in the 7th map where the real issue begins.

Code:
Actions
    Game Cache - Create a game cache from Campaign02.w3v
    Set Cache = (Last created game cache)
    Game Cache - Restore Defnolicus of Heroes from Cache for Player 11 (Dark Green) at (Center of Defnolicus Resore Region <gen>) facing (Position of Witch King (Lich) 0021 <gen>)
    Set Defnolicus = (Last restored unit)
    Game Cache - Clear Cache
    Game Cache - Save Cache

Now when I go to load Defnolicus in this level, it saves all his items and level, but it loads him as the damn LICH KING MODEL!!!! :banghead: :banghead:
I dont understand why he loads just fine in level 6 but in level 7 his model changes!!! I never changed his model or modified him!!!! Some one please help because I have other levels made and this is what is holding me up!!! I even looked at the Game cache tutorial that was posted recently and followed those steps......:nuts:

I'm not good with game caches but should this be the problem?

facing (Position of Witch King (Lich) 0021 <gen>)

Maybe you need to change that to default building degrees (I don't really know but thats the only conclusion I can make :p)
(Cause thats the only string with an lich in it :))

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?

    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.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    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
