Text in Cinematics?

[Pandizzle]

I was just wondering whether or not it's possible to get text to come up during cinematics (not jass).

Depends how you want to do it. There are 3 ways that I think off the top of my head of how to do it.

First is simply just the Display Text trigger, which makes the text pop up on the screen.

• Game - Display to (All players) for 30.00 seconds the text: Text

The second is using the Cinematic Transmission Trigger, which shows text at the bottom of the screen, and can have a portrait and a name.

• Cinematic - Send transmission to (All players) from a Player 1 (Red) Footman named Name at (Center of (Playable map area)): Play No sound and display Message. Modify duration: Add 0.00 seconds and Wait

The third way would be to create a image in Paint of Photoshop or something, convert it to blp, import it into your map, and then use the Fade Filter trigger.

• Cinematic - Fade out and back in over 2.00 seconds using texture White Mask and color (0.00%, 0.00%, 0.00%) with 0.00% transparency

Hope that helped
