Magic Effects Issues

notaurious

Something like 90% of the magic effects I put on my map do not show up. I have tried messing with 3D editor, changing positions, rotation... so on... nothing. Effects like the red swirl magic effect, fireflies, most of the colored magic fiery effects... almost everything I put on the map has this issue.

Is this something with my computer or a general beta issue that others are noticing?

Anything that has lighting effects with it, I've noticed, don't render if you manipulate it in 3d. You have to reload the instance to see it. Is that the issue, or something else?

I am just never seeing them, period. I put them in on the 2D editor. I go to the map to play, and most of them just never show up.

I had a little trouble figuring out how the projectors work. But I haven't dealt with any magic effects yet. I'll have to defer to someone else.

Projecters have 2 parts, in 3d edit mode you will see the moveable box and a rectangle a short distance from the first box. The rectangle is what projects the effect.

Example

Place a blood projector. Y axis 10 feet from the ground, rotate pitch 180. The projector is now showing a blood splatter directly below the area you placed the projector.

Thank you! I thought they were just bugged.

One note that was mentioned above, but I'll say it again, you have to reload the map (finish 3d mode) to see the effect
