I copied Archian's Tutorial thingy..

My problem is.. When the loading is finished.. The Cinematic won't start.. I can still control my units bla bla bla..

You need to put a space between the "-". For example you wrote "Cinematic- Enable user..." and you should have written "Cinematic - Enable user..."

Also you need to write the Events, Conditions and Actions at the top, even though you might not have conditions or events.

Hmm, only now do I see that me and Septimus were wrong. It doesn't all start at once. It activates the cinematic mode, displays the subtitles for 10 seconds and deactivates it.

Try just putting the part where it says:

  • Trigger
    • Events
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Cinematic - Turn cinematic mode On for (All Players)
      • Camera - Apply Starting Cam <gen> for player 1 (red) over 0.00 seconds
      • Cinematic -Send transmission to (All Players) from marine 0003 <gen> named Dr.Volts:Play no sound and display Whoa... That time t.. modify duration:add 0.00 seconds and wait
