So I just ran into a problem.... I have no idea what caused this or what, but now on every unit, it appears that there are now small white orbs, or in other words the little "error" type actor that is the same thing that happens when you have the actor with the model "none". I have posted a screenshot below. Does anyone know how to fix this if it is at all possible? I have spent hours upon hours working on this map, and I don't want to have to start all over again, especially since I don't have any backups of it.... I can't seem to find what could be causing this. Any help would be much appreciated.
This is probably a messed-up attachment actor. Go into your actors tab in the data editor and look for any attachment actors. Make sure they are all set up properly. If you had one that didn't have the right creation events, it would try to attach itself to everything and you end up with that. I believe that was the issue for me when I had this issue a while back.

...especially since I don't have any backups of it...
Make a backup. Right now!
As for the issue, its exactly like everyone stated, you have some attachment actor somewhere, which links to an invalid model and has an event like this:
Unit Birth
Create
which causes this actor to be created and attached to every single unit.
Well, I think it might be being caused by a custom Sarah Kerrigan model that I imported since whenever I start up the editor, I get a billion errors about that unit.... If this is the case then it is a simple fix. I think I'm going to have to re-import it anyway as I was having issues with it, but that's alright. At any rate, I'll take a look and see if this was the issue.
EDIT: Sure enough, that was the problem. Thanks for all your help in this.

Maybe you accidently have an event trying to attach a model to the units. Thats what it looks like to me.

@zeldarules28: Go
Yup, you messed up the events+ of some actor i think :) An actor with a non-functional model.
