This trigger gives the player the power to skip the entire cinematic with only a press of a single key. the [Esc] key! After the player presses his/her escape key, the map will end itself immidiatley and bring the player to the main menu.

This isn't just good for the people who don't want to see the rest, but this trigger shows that you have enough courtesey to let them leave! A map without this trigger gets downrated easily due to their frustration...
Skip Cini
Events
Player - Player 1 (Red) skips a cinematic sequence
Conditions
Actions
Game - Victory Player 1 (Red) ( Skip dialogs, Skip scores)
This is the first "movie" trigger. Holds almost all of the actions that are needed to make this cinematic whole! Although not all cinematics require only one big trigger. You can do it in 10 if you wanted. But I find just 1-3 big triggers are good enough. Depends on the size of your cinematic.

This map was made by: 'Craka_J'

Took me about 15 hours to make this... yeah... sad... I know. Hey! it was 2:00am-7:30pm! But I slept from 8:00am-2:00pm... Do the math!
This isn't much of a tutorial. I expect you to know atleast a tiny bit on making cinematics. Just look at triggers and figure out what they do :-P

Credits for music "getting ready3.mp3" goes to the CHIMES OF WAR cinematic. You should download that and check it out as well ;-)
The WoW music is from World of Warcraft, but I took it from the SoT2 cinematic. Also an extremely cool cinematic with great trigger use. The "nm_goodbadugly.wav" music was imported by me! go ahead! anyone can use it!

Extra little note:
I never really made up a story for this, didnt care about it either so, don't downrate because of the storyline -_-
This is just a referance, an attempt to inspire others ^_^
I don't really care if anybody takes this idea or "storyline". But no one may touch this map and submit it as theirs! >:-(

[Tips & Hints]

-When you want to use a sound for your CINEMATIC, just import the sound, and make sure that the sound's "Effect" and "Channel" are set to "Default" and "General".

-When you set a sky and a fog for your map, it's quality is better and is judged better as well.

-To make a camera get a good closeup on a unit or whatever... make a camera, and then set the Field of View (FoV) to 20.00. The camera must be placed correctly. Or else!

-Stopping music INSTANTLY can sometimes sound really stupid. Using the AFTER FADING is much better and more "real".
