Nope, the texture isnt black, but those terrain squares are simply lowered by one cliff level. (Or about one)
This forms a hole in the terrain and you can look through the ground, seeing the black background.
This is definitely the same problem. I would have expected it to be a problem with wc3's cliff generation in the editor already, but it seems like the hole forms ingame then. Any terrain deformation could cause this. I think the best idea is to check the cliffs at that position and simply recreate them.
Do you already have experiences with that cliff slopes? They often cause problems like wrong pathing and those black holes in the terrain. Probably in an early version there was one and it now comes back to get its revenge
By the way, somewhere on the map there was another black hole in the terrain. I don't know whether it is already fixed, it was a very small triangle caused by a such a slope. Don't remember the position either, and it's like half a year ago I found it... ^^ Just forgot to report.
(That's why -feedback x could always be useful)
(New idea, does not have to get into the changelog, but what about something like -memo x or -note x, an info which can be displayed at the end of the game or with -viewmemo, -memo simply would add to the string, stupid idea and alt + tab + notepad is a good idea, too
But from my personal experience I know that I don't switch to the desktop to write a note down often)
