Fade Filters? Help please?

[Hodge-Podge]

Hey.

I was just wondering. Do cinematic fade filters affect every player in the game, and if they do, is it possible to make them only affect a triggering player

+rep for help

Hmm sorry if I'm wrong but I think you just need to add:

• Actions:
  • Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == GetTriggerPlayer() then
  • Here add your filter
  • Custom script: endif

Lol. I think you should erase that.

Fade filters apply to every player in the game, however by nesting the function call in an if-statement that filters out any player other than the local player (which is the player at which the machine is processing the code for in a multiplayer environment). The result of this would be a player-specific fade-filter.

There must be a tutorial on GetLocalPlayer() for the uber nubers.

Ok... Im not an uber nuber... i just don't use cinematics much... and I also dont use vjass much, coz as i hve already said... it screws with my brain....

GetLocalPlayer is neither a cinematic nor vJass. The fact that you don't know this makes you an uber nuber lol.

Ok, I'm back again... Now I need to know how to make player specific fade filters for a player of a triggering unit...
Sigh... I wish I know how this stuff worked

• Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == GetOwningPlayer(GetTriggerUnit()) then
• Cinematic - ...
• Custom script: endif

P.S. You shouldn't bump threads that are dead nearly two months now; just make a new one.

@Hodge-Podge: By the way, cinematic filter creation desyncs when used in GetLocalPlayer() blocks.

Instead, just use the "Show/hide" filter functions. Ex:

• //Create the filter here... Cinematic - Fade Filter or whatever
• Cinematic - Hide filter
• Custom Script: if GetLocalPlayer() == GetOwningPlayer(GetTriggerUnit()) then
  • Cinematic - Cinematic - Show filter
• Custom Script: endif

This will display it only for the owner of the triggering unit. Make sure you create the filter before it, not in the block.
