hmm never happend to me sorry i dunno >.<

Master-O-Chaos,

No one cares that you don't know. The only instance in which they care is if you know what to do.Please stop spamming the boards, plus your signature is way too big.

Open your map in the WEU Enhancer, check the Use Advanced Triggers button. Save.

Open your map in WEU, go to triggers. There is an action: Advanced - Special Effects- Create Special Effect Circle.

Enough said.

Okay.... I know i'm doing something wrong when i come up with a list of compile errors...... but what am i doing wrong is the questoin........

In that trigger it says there are 6703 errors... most of them are like expected a name or something...... any help i can get would be greatly apprieciated. thanks!

first, try this:

Cinematic - Turn cinematic mode On for (All players) [ok]
Cinematic - Turn of game control of (All players) [add it]
no 1 knows what could do a player while he is processing this trigger. so, turn off his control.

Visibility - Create an initially Enabled visibility modifier for Player 1 (Red) emitting Visibility across Illuminate1 <gen> [WRONG]

You set it in every player, so you should use "for all players" or a loop (for integerA)

somethin' like this:

for each integer(A) do actions from 1 to 10
Visibility - Create an initially Enabled visibility modifier for
player(integerA) emitting Visibility across Illuminate1 <gen>

Wait 0.50 seconds [WRONG!!!!]

this makes your micro to loop a timer (to get the delay u set)
use:

Wait 0.50 seconds game time

this trigger will use the same game's timer. works very good.

every new change in your mod, make a copy of your file. In case you did something strange and the editor can't save it. that's important.

tell me something... does your trigger work? what's the problem? you can't save it or the trigger doesn't work?

I think there's missing something, you need to add the function "Advanced - Initialize Advanced Triggers" to the top of you map initialization trigger! Other way it won't work...

Okay i got rid of WEU cuz it's completely just makes me mad... second of all i got my cinematic to work... ACtually it worked after i delted the custom text that WEU added to my map. thanks for all the help though
