Post your cinematics and get feedback here!

oww, sorry for double-posting 8)

I've got a question for Insaniteus:

- How did you make the special effects in IC? like the Golden Aura and the Psionic Storm?


- Nuladion

That's the answer: He takes specialeffect-units for his cinematics. ;) I have almost the same question here. But when I put a path in the file path of a unit I dont see this sfx-unit in my map only in the editor. :(

Maybe you only forgot to delete the .mdl / .mdx in the path

If a Special effect has no listed animations, then it will only play that look once before never playing again. In these occasions you need to create one of the units with triggers at the exact time and place you want the effect to appear at.

And the Golden Aura and the Psionic Storm used custom units. Golden Aura was Shockwave and Psionic Storm was Purge. There are immense advantages to using custom units as effects, one of the most obvious being the ability to change the size of the effect.

Yet another reason I love pure cinematic maps, you cna get away with ANYTHING lol.

-Insaniteus-

Lol that's damn right. Zucchabar (in COTN) is like 90% fake hehehe, but keep this a secret! ;D

Heh ok ill keep it on the downlow...

HEY EVERYONE!!!!!!!! ZUCCHABAR THE CITY IN THE SAGA COTN IS 90%!!! FAKE!!!!

but i won't tell anyone else

hehe bitch :no:

But seriously, it doesn't show during the cinematic.

I got some feedback!

To DaemonKillar: Very good story line in COTN, no spelling errors or lacking scenes.

To Insaniteus: No storyline (Maby couse i didn't get the big fight) But i have to say that i laughed alot...

Has anyone here played my Saga of Azeroth campaign?

What do you think about the cinematics in it?

If anyone played, which one is the best?

You sohuld post this in a new thread

uhhh.....i need serious help! i cant get the cinematic to F*** start!
my cine is gonna be called Illidan's rage and it circles round illidan (DUH) but i cant get it to start its gonna take me a while but im learning fast and its gonna use a HELLOVALOTA special effects! mostly on the units

First off, this thread is for posting examples, so you would be better off asking your question in a seperate thread.

Anyhow, you should be a bit more specific on the 'map not starting' deal. Is it not loading, or is it giving a 'Victory' message when you begin?

Download any cinematic map here and then check out their initialization triggers so you can understand the basics of cinematic mode and other actions related to cinematics. Start off by removing all the preset actions listed in the Melee Initialization trigger.
