HI y'all

 

I'm trying to give a palantir image to few objects in which I'm lost as this is fairly simple to mod, the reason is cos even I put the code, and make sure the asset is good, the palantir of my objects is still black, it's happened with two heroes I've created and with the creep lairs, I want to add some images to the liars as in bfme 2, but they just don't show up, does anybody know why this happens?

 

appreciate any help folks.

Did u linked your button/portrait name in mappedimage to the texture ?

[Felipe Roll-st]

yes, I even tried to give vanilla portraits to the lairs, but they don't appear, it's like if they were hardcoded but I don't think so as it's not really relevant to hardcode that :(

 

with my heroes the button image is shown but not the palantir one, even tho both images are in the same picture

Are you using these lines in the code for those units you're talking about?

    ; SelectPortrait for Heros is portrait behind skill buttons. HP = HeroPortrait.
    SelectPortrait = HPAragorn
    
    ; ButtonImage for Heros is button image on Hero Select UI to select hero. HI = HeroIcon or HeroImage.
    ButtonImage = HIAragorn

Also, within the respawn module for your hero, make sure to set this line;

        ButtonImage                = HIAragorn

 

After all that, if it still doesn't work, carefully double-check that you've properly mapped the texture in mapped images.

He does he said the problem was because he tried to give portrait to warg lair
and in the vanilla bfme1 warg lair have the orc pit portrait set but never shows up

 

i think it's hardcoded

yes I'm thinking so too (for the lairs), but I dunno for my heroes as these are copies from other objects, like I have one orc hero that uses some of the mordor archer code (specifically animations only I think), the rest obviously is modified to be set a hero, I dunno if there is a piece of code that I'm not seeing that makes this happen, like in KINDOF: or s'thing like that :/
