[Trigger] Way to fix this desync?

[jim7777]

I am currently working on a system but unfortunately i'm having some desyncs on the GetLocalPlayer() about Cinematic Fade Filters.. When 2 or more User-type players are playing, when 1 player use the system, that player will get disconnected.

I Use:

If GetLocalPlayer() == GetTriggerPlayer() then
     call CinematicFadeBJ( bj_CINEFADETYPE_FADEOUTIN, 3.5, "texture.blp", 100,100,100,0)
endif

are there anyways to solve this? Please help me i really need this. This is the only thing is on desync because when I remove this part.. it works fine or the CinematicFadeBJ part...

Actually, this should work. You did it the good way.

On the other side, you can get a desync with such a filter if they are already other local functions you are using at the same instant (camera? sound? effect? an other filter?)

I don't know why but it seems that there are many things on this on my map... each hero of my map have this thing but they aren't not doing it the same instance. Still wondering why is that happening..

CinematicFadeBJ calls a lot of other functions and one of them might cause a desync

better set the alpha value or the texture localy and then call the function for all players:

local string s = "texture.blp"
if GetLocalPlayer() != GetTriggerPlayer() then
    set s = ""
endif
call CinematicFadeBJ( bj_CINEFADETYPE_FADEOUTIN, 3.5, s, 100,100,100,0)

(if that does not work which might be possible since I never messed with fading try setting both alpha and texture localy (and probably fade time) but don't touch the fade type)

If you get 2 different filters using this BJ's applied on several local players, you can get some problemes (bugged natives) causing desync. I experimented this in Restricted Complex 601; I get a filter for nightvision, and I used to get a white filter for lightnings; both used at the same time to several players caused desync, for the reason Nightvision was a local filter, whereas lightning was used without GetLocalPlayer.
