Hi people. I want on the end of my campaign give final video animation, original - my own created - video. In the end of campaign for orc, elves,,, was normal ,,nonanimated cinematic mode video,,. i want it too. How can i do it?

I've only been able to do this by moving the video-file to Warcraft III\Movies and converting it to an .mpq-file.
Extensions that seemed to work are .avi, .mp4, .flv and .wmv.
The only extension I tested that did not work was .mpg.
(Note that all these extensions still needs to be renamed to .mpq).

An example:
You have a video called "MyVid.avi" and want to show it at the end of the campaign.
Copy/paste it to "Warcraft III\Movies" and rename it to "MyVid.mpq".
In your map, call this action: call PlayCinematic( "MyVid" ).
If that is done, the video will play once the game ends in victory.


The problem is: I couldn't make it work with imports. That's not good, I know :/.
