I have a naga wow model unit using a missile effect ability. When the ability is used, sc2 freezes for about 20 seconds, then closes with no error message.(you never see the missile apear)
The ability is based off of yamato cannon. If i change the model of the missile, the ability works. However i can use the model in other areas, like as a unit model and sc2 works fine.
Any idea on why the one model causes sc2 to crash? Any idea on how 2 fix it?
Incorrect model format, too many polygons (although you'd need a missile with over 5 million vertices to crash the game), too many effects spawned per time. Those are some I can think of.
Unfortunately that's not alot of information at hand. It could be a number of things, really. Which model are you using as the missile? There's a video on youtube of a Battlecruiser that launches Bunkers as missiles so... technically you shouldn't have any trouble launching anything. I've launched Kerrigan as a missile, and I'm sure others have launched many models as missiles. kinda hard to say what could be going on.
If in doubt convert every part into another ability which is similar and see what the cause is. Odds are you have some looping effect such as a set effect performing itself instead of an effect with a similar name.

Ya, i know its not alot of info. I was looking for ideas so i could see if that was the problem or rule it out.
The model is a naga shell from some wow spell. You can use the model in other ways, but when used as a missile sc dies.
-Its only 1 effect and the model only has like 150 vertices, so its not that.
