need help with cinematics

i follow the tutorials correctly i think anyway, but they never work don't work like it wont change cameras properly or my unit wont move like i told it to ect. will someone please help
 
could you post your trigger? It will be a lot easier to help you.

Some basic problems could be this:
Did you turn cinematic mode on?
If there is no text between camera transitions, you have to use the wait function, or else the cameras wil move instantly to one another eg:
apply camera1 for player red
wait 3 sec
applat camera 2 for player red
wait 4 sec
etc...

Anyway welcome to the hive :)
But show me your trigger and i'm sure i can see what's going wrong
 
huh yeah
Go into your WE , select your relevant trigger and right clic on it, and use the option copy.
Then back on the forum, use the wrap trigger and paste your trigger.
The wrap trigger option is in advanced, it looks like a wheel with spikes.
 
it isnt working ill copy it in WE but wont let me paste in firefox
 
that's strange... let me try too

I think this should work
 
sweet thnx uuuuuh what area thing is the question mark symbol in or is that a trigger comment
 
the question mark is just a comment, the real wait function is found under action->all-> scroll down a bit and select wait

it should look like this
  • Wait 2.00 seconds
It's generally good to use them quite often to make things 'just work' ^^
Glad i could help
