Film?

[Grober.Rasta]

Is anyone here, who can tell me, how I can make those films at the beginning of a map?
Like those in the campaign or at the wow Map...

This is called a cinematic. Cinematics are made using triggers (to activate the cinematic mode and to create the events of the cinematic). I believe there are some tutorials here on The Hive about creating cinematics.

Ah, thanks Archian

Thanks a lot, I will try it with this Tutorial, and if I still have a question, I will ask again...

Ok, I did it like it was explained in the Tutorial, but it still does not start at the beginning. Sometimes it starts when i walk through the Camera Position...
I will post my version of the Trigger soon, yet I do not really have time for that, maybe in an hour ;D
I hope you can help me then :thunbsup:

maybe you started the movie at "map initialization" which is wrong.. start it in 0,01 seconds of the game..

I always start it in 000 seconds of the game, which still works.

And not sure if this is covered in Archian's tut but you use the apply camera trigger to set the different cameras, and use the camera palate to place cameras in the map.

Ok, thx again. I'm damn sorry for not writing that long, but my computer did not work, and after that, my editor did not work... I will try it again...
