RaeVanMorlock	What part isn't working? Use the trigger editor's "Copy As Text" function and paste it as code so we can see it exactly. You can't put a weather effect at entire map... hehe

Hrmm...apparently it does wor over a region instead of at a point--the wording is odd though.

Try this:

Code:

ShamanWeather
    Events
        Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -Rain as An exact match
    Conditions
    Actions
        Game - Display to (All players) the text: Triggered
        Sound - Play ShamanReady1 <gen>
        Environment - Create at (Entire map) the weather effect Lordaeron Rain (Heavy)

Then if the message is displayed, you'll know if the problem is the actions or event.

Heptameron	Try creating it at (Playable map area) instead of (Entire map).

Anitarf	After creating a weather effect, you must also enable it (there's another action under "enviroment" that does that; you could then just create the rain at map initialization and save it to a variable, and then, when you type rain, just enable that weather effect). Don't know why you don't hear the sound, though.

RaeVanMorlock	This is probably a dumb thing to ask, but.. do you hear other sounds? Maybe your speaker volume is too low..
