Hi there, I could need some help too.

I already posted this in the forum, but noone answered. Ok to keep it short, here is what I need:

First: How can I remove Doodads with triggers, which are NOT Destructibles, but Props, enviromental, or Cinematic Doodads?

Second: How can I remove the map size limit, cuz it really get's on my nerves...

Yours,

Oug

how can you store data off of multiboards for a campaign?

just make a sample campaign it would be alot easier to go through.

three noob ones...

1. how do you create a cinematic

2. How do you import a custom art file and set it as the art model file for a unit

3. How do you import a song into the map and use it?

Hello 555555,

to answer your 3 questions:

A cinematic is a sometimes a bit hard to create, dependant on how complexe you want to make it. First you have to intialise the "cinematic mode" with the trigger editor. Then you have to set cameras, and apply to those cameras (also with the triggers). But to learn that very effectivly, I would suggest you download a proffesional Cinematic map, open it, and study it a bit.

To your two last questions: This can be done with the Import manager, the Sound can be even imported into the sound editor directly, but the World editor only supports MP3 or WAV files, if it has not been patched elseway. You can use the music file also with help of the trigger editor.



Oh yeah you out there ^^ I still need help for my two questions...

How do i remove the limits in 1.18, how can i remove doodads which are not destructibles, in the trigger editor?

 

[N00byStance]

If you want to use music in your map, you NEED it in mp3 format. I strongly suggest to reduce its bitrate to e.g. 92, 80 kbit, and it would be only short tracks.

i have a question about terrain...how do u make sharp 90 degree angles but just using terrain no cliffs at all...

there is a minas tirith map that was discontinued, and it has all these custom doodads, anyway they angle the terrain at a 90 angle, how is that done?

 

[goth54325_3]

You have to use WEU.

make the high of it then use the cut off thing and it will make 90

im making a ctf map and every 5 seconds both flags are pinged but when a unit picks up a flag how do i make it ping the unit holding the flag??? please help me 8)

 

[Nex Power Speed]

Are you talking, for example, that the flag must be how the that item of orcs, the red flag? (sorry for my english)
That is in detonators:
Special effect - Create a special effect attached to the overhead of (Triggering unit) using (Here the model of the flag)

My Questions:

1. How do i make a missle launch from a region or a doodad? (as in Maze of Lava)

2. How do i make certain terrain change? (from lava to dirt) And only when it is lava that if a unit enters it, it dies?

3. How do i make a weapon that automatically fires? (Battleships, Tank Wars)

I believe it is under the item, where you put Attatchment points like hand, left.

 

[Nex Power Speed]

Ahh, that. The attachment point has ``origin´´ and you can change for : ``overhead´´ ``head´´ chest´´ lefthand´´ righthand´´. It´s easy to do an ability that, if you pick an item, the attachment will appear
