Hey. I started doing maps a while ago, but got away from it again - so i've restarted the game in the meantime while not using it. Anyways, i installed it after many months on the shelf, and i decided to start making maps again. Now that i've installed the game, the editor is pretty weird. Terrain editor is doing fine, so i region, but I've been having trouble with both the unit and the doodad pallette.
1. When i select a unit/doodad in the respective pallette, it shows up on the screen as a giant icon, all black around it. I get some glimpses of the terrain through the unit-icon, but that's only when it 'flickers'.
2. Placing units/doodads only takes effect after i've changed to the terrain pallette again.

Terrain works just as well as i remember. My video drivers are updated. Now that I think about it, I actually remember having seen something like this a while ago. I think I was messing around with some models and actors, did something wrong, and it went crazy like that. Maybe that helps. I'll try and reinstall SC2 if you guys don't know what this problem is and how to fix it (;

How do i solve these problems? Thanks!
... wat?
Maybe a screenshot? I can give you one fairly easy solution ahead of time that should be sure to fix your problem anyway, I guess - reinstall SC2.

Sorry for the weird post :D bug picture The big icon flashes, giving me glimps of the terrain beneath it.
Eh that is pretty weird. I assume the terrain isn't hidden?
Try updating your video drivers to the latest.

EDIT: Found another bug Guess I gotta reinstall the game...
Reinstalled it - made no difference... C'mon, someone's gotta have the answer!

That is genuinely weird as hell. I'll toss this to general chat for you; that should give you an answer. It should also fit in there better then here.

Thanks.
