Hey I started making a Warcraft 3 map with a bunch of cinematic triggers and things like that, when all of a sudden: poof! All the triggers are blank.
Could installing the Frozen Throne expansion have done this? Is there a way to get them back?

Installing Wc3 TFT did do that.
It did it to me when i reinstalled.

Your world editor will be bugged for 2-3 months, then it will slowly start to fix itself (dont ask me, im saying what happened).
Some triggers will start reappearing, missing tooltips with show up again, and other bugs you may experience now that you dident have before will clear up.

To answer your question, you can show the triggers again, add a new event/condition/action, ANYTHING, just add then delete.
Then they will all reappear, but when you open the map again, they will all have gone, so create a new event/conditon/action again.

The world editor has alot of problems, some unexplainable, but they are their.
Dont worry too much, the triggers and everything else is their, the world editor just dosent want to show them...

If this is the case (which is extremely weird) then set your calendar 2 to 3 months ahead of time.

A "patch" is a file that updates a program - in this case, Warcraft III. He means "do you have the lastest version?"

Ohhh awesome, I got the patch........ AND MY TRIGGERS ARE BACK! Thanks guyes.
Actually... we could take this a point farther: is it possible to keep these triggers and turn this map into a w3x map?

Yes, just save it as w3x (that is, pick Warcraft 3 expansion map in the dropdown list at the save dialog). :P
