I first create my terrain + doodads, and then I start triggering. I add the cams when I need them! I do the same with units, I dont create them until I need them!
Naming oyur cams is very helpful, so you dont have to search camera001-099 to find the right one!
I name them like this:
StartOverhead
StartFight
BattleHit1
BattleEffect
EndingCredits
Etc.....

I do the same with the names of the triggers!

btw: One week extra! w00T!!!! That's very good! :D

Guest	1 week? Woot, now I can take my time...damn after a while, working on the same cin for a couple of weeks gets really boring. I wish I could just finish it and get working with something else

PS: I just made 2 entries into the Cinematics for Dummies thread lol. DK needs to do one .

Well the fact that my previous tut was deleted just discouraged me a bit. I mean I explaineed how to add more tilesets to like 10 separate persons so I wrote a tutorial that got deleted and need to do it again.

I prolly will but not yet :)

Guest	Ok, DK, somehow your last post has completely shut this thread up:ggani: Let's change that: In the part of COTN, with the caves, did you change the doodad you used to make the cave in to a unit and change the collision size to 0?

Whitehawk15	No, he just overlapped Archway doodads.

Yes, to do that use CTRL + One of the NUMPad directions while you have the doodad (Archway) selected!

Whitehawk15	Well... I think I will have to withdraw from the contest... my computer has been having serious problems lately and I doubt I will be able to finish in time. :(

Guest	Too bad, we only have like 5 contestors ATM

Guest	Is it possible to change the terrain for something small, like make a cave? a little add-on of piece of land, and do I have to use the introduction cameras? or can I make the introduction by myself? (camera motions)... And if that isn't allowed, whould it mind you that I use the map? not part of the contest, cause I find it to have a great terrain!
