fade out screen and sway camera for local player

[emil23]

Hi would it be posible to fade out screen and fade camera for local player? what i am trying is to create a custom spell that makes damages event target's screen black and his camera swaying it is supossed to be a simulation of getting hited in the head.

so far my trigger looks like that, i am using the damage engine by birbe. the main issue with my trigger is that it makes other players desync. i am sure it does because i tested my map today with other players and as soon as it hapenned player who received sway camera +fade out got dced from game.why does it desync? how can i fix it i was sure the actions that are being executed work localy and should not desync.

• BlackScreen
  • Events
    • Game - DamageEvent becomes Equal to 1.00
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of DamageEventSource) Equal to Strong Troll
    • (Level of right flank (Icon) for DamageEventSource) Equal to 1
    • DisallowBlackScreen Equal to False
  • Actions
    • Set VariableSet TempInt = (Random integer number between 1 and 8)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • TempInt Equal to 8
      • Then - Actions
        • Trigger - Turn off BlackScreen <gen>
        • Set VariableSet DisallowBlackScreen = True
        • Unit - Remove right flank (Icon) from DamageEventSource
        • Countdown Timer - Start shelobiksFred as a One-shot timer that will expire in 3.00 seconds
        • Custom script: set udg_LocalPlayer = GetLocalPlayer()
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • LocalPlayer Equal to (Owner of DamageEventTarget)
          • Then - Actions
            • Cinematic - Fade out and back in over 3.00 seconds using texture Panda-n-Cub and color (0.00%, 0.00%, 0.00%) with 0.00% transparency
            • Camera - Sway the camera target for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) with magnitude 1300.00 and velocity 70.00
          • Else - Actions
      • Else - Actions

The answer is in your thread from a couple years ago:

how to fade filter only to player blue and red?

Hi, player 1 and player 2 have a cut scene in my map when boat becomes 1000 hit points, thats the event. how can i use this action but only for red and blue?

Keep in mind that the solution posted above only works for fading out, the other two fade types call FinishCinematicFadeAfterBJ, which creates a timer, so doing that in a local context will desync.

Cinematic fade for triggering player?

is that possible? i mean something like: Enter Enchanted Forest Events Unit - A unit enters REGION Conditions Actions Cinematic - Fade out over 1.50 seconds using texture Black Mask and color (0.00%, 0.00%, 0.00%) with 0.00% transparency Wait 1.51...

Cinematic Fade in/out for only 1 player.

Well, Recently i've made this cinematic in my map which shows only to 1 player. the problem is, that during that cinematic i use the "Cinematic - Fade out" Trigger: Cinematic - Fade out over 1.00 seconds using texture Black Mask and colour, bla bla bla etc. And that makes the screen fade out...

If you're on a more recent version (1.31+) you could probably use custom frames to mimic the effects of a fade out/fade in without having to worry about desyncs. But swaying the camera without desyncs may be impossible.
