Flashing images on the screen

[Sox10]

Is there anyway to make it so that every once in a while an Imported image pops up on the screen like a screamer? Cause im making a map that a skull or somthing pops up and freaks the shit out of the people.

You could make the image into a flat aura model, use it as a dummy unit's model and locust it. Change visibility to fade in via loops.

Or you can use a custom fade filter with triggers..

Custom fade filters rule!

I used those for my RPG as Maps, you clicked on the item, and you had the map in front of self. It's kinda cool ya know.

Very cool.

I mean- You could have basic maps and trigger floating text on top of it to indicate where quests want you to go(red X), where towns are, or even the direction you're facing with > /| etc. It'd be extensive, but so worth it.

I think you may have confused the .blp (BLizzard Pictures) with .bmp image extensions. This is what I did when I started modifying images.
