[LH 1.4 Dead DLC Missing .png] Palisade Quest Icon Missing from Cloth Map

from Elemental Forums

In CoreQuestLocations.xml for <QuestLocationType InternalName="QuestLoc_Palisade">, <DrawnIcon>Artifact_Bones1_ClothIcon.dds</DrawnIcon> references a .dds instead of a valid .png file. This leads to empty palisade icons on the cloth map.

The closest thing I could find was Improvement_Fort.png... recommend using that one unless of course you have a palisade asset laying around somewhere for the cloth map. O:)

I have the Artifact_Bones1_ClothIcon.dds showing up on my game. You can test this by creating a test map and placing down the Riddle quest. Might want to show a screenshot of what you are seeing, as I see the bones.

What's odd is that all other quest locations in that xml point to .png's except that one.. and it happens to be the one where I'm missing the cloth map icon. As far as the screen shot goes, it has the quest hud indicator showing there is a quest there but no icon. When zooming to 3d the palisade tile will pop and show fine. I noticed this when doing the ctrl-u cheat to test a quest I'm fiddling around with and saw a trend with the palisades. I wonder if using the ctrl-u view cheat could have caused the issue?

Parrott - do you see the palisade quest icon anywhere on your cloth map if starting a new game?

This is what I see...

Although, when I loaded a map I did have the icon not show up. So, there is something fishy going on, but I do see the map icon as you see above.
