Right... Now try to make that the least readable and I'll take you seriously and help.

First of all, I have no idea where you're going with this. Second of all this is not the place to be asking questions about hosting. Assuming you're trying to make a cinematic, there is no one "how-to" way to make a cinematic. Review cinematics made from other people on here and on wc3campaigns. Look through the triggers and such. Also, look here:

And third of all. Write a better description.

I agree with everything stated above.

And for your hosting problem. Try disabling your firewall.

I agree with ghenjis - i have made several short little skits in WC; there is no one way to do it.

About hosting - not many people seem to realise this (they always think its firewall - although i suppose it sometimes is) you have to call your ISP and have them activate port 6112 on your router (you can look in wc3 options and change it to w/e you want, but 6112 is default)

Well, if you wish to get really good at making Cinematics, I suggest looking at some tutorials for Camera Angles and how to move units and stuff. Most people on b.net don't know how to use the World Editor (not counting mappers), so they wouldn't really be very great at helping out. Also.. You know what they say..'Practice makes perfect'.

Making cinematics is kinda uncomplicated, just put the cameras where you want, start with the camera where you want to start you cinematic and do something like

events - (depands on when you want the cinematic to take place)
conditions -
actions -
cinematic - turn cinematic mode on
camera - apply camera A(= your first camera) to player X (depands on how many players you want, if you want 12 people to see it, make this trigger 12 times with each time another player)
wait X sec
camera - apply camera B(=your second camera) to player X (same story as before) over X seconds (depands on how long you want to make it take till the camera will loop from 1 to 2
wait X sec
cinematic - turn off this cinematic

done

what you just did was:

start the movie at a certain point and show a certain camera view, and after a couple of seconds the camera loops (like 'running') to the other camera view

hope thats what you were asking for in your rather unlogic and chaotic post
