First off, Im not a noob or anything. I have NEVER had a problem with transmissions or the trigger editor in general. But Im wokring on a map, and I have not done anything crazy with it, but when I try to send a transmission with any unit OTHER than zeratul, the transmission box its all fuzzy (ya know, like when tv satelite is lost and there are those black static lines)..Wierd..any ideas to what might cause this??

Feel free to Send me a PM if you have any questions/concerns!
You should be able to force whatever portrait you want into the box. That's actually the static portrait which I use in my transmission library while it's starting up.
Portraits aren't preloaded by default, so it won't appear until the portrait model is loaded. You can fix this by preloading the portrait models you need for your map (there's a whole set of trigger actions for preloading assets.)
Ok...I tried this w/ gen warfield, it works. I tied it w/ reapers and the adjutant, and it doesnt work. Transmission from unit = okay. everythign else = not ok...
If the command your using supports override portrait: true/false set to true. Might help, another suggestion is changing the value of Source:
default is TransmissionSourceFromUnit, change it to TransmissionSourceFromModel this will allow you to select from any unit within your current data resources. Try selecting unit types from that rather than from the unit directly, what you can do if you want it too seem like its coming from a specific unit use the command UnitFlashSelection on the unit that's speaking.
Sorry if I'm not much help, Big Noob here.
Edit: Create a new page and try redoing this from scratch, not the whole thing just the transmission. Disable every other trigger on your map so you can skip and focus in on this.

@zeldarules28: Go

I think I had to choose " DO override"..what does that mean though? I have never had to use it b4
Hmmm stil having this issue in other maps randomly...what the heck

AHA!! THANK YOU! I will go try this out.
hmm still having the issue....I'll work on it tho
edit- think I figured it out...
edit again- nope...I preloaded the adjutant model object and the models, it still has the fuzzy image..I will attach a pic.
Ok...I tried this w/ gen warfield, it works. I tied it w/ reapers and the adjutant, and it doesnt work. Transmission from unit = okay. everythign else = not ok...
