Cinematic Problem

[death_knight]

I've just started to make an intro cinematic in one of my maps. The cinematic works fine, once it finishes I can see where all the enemy buildings are on the minimap. I don't want that but I can't figure out how to get rid of it.

Can anyone help me?

the minimap you can try to del this an test it:

• Intro Cleanup
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Visibility - Create an initially Enabled visibility modifier for AP1_Player emitting Black mask across (Playable map area)
    • Visibility - Destroy (Last created visibility modifier)

or try deleteing more and see where is coming form.

I've got the same problem once. I've solved it easily. I've just forgot to:

• Actions
  • Cinematic - Turn cinematic mode Off for (All players)

During cinematics mode ON, all FOW & black-shit disapears so it wouldn't make the cinematic look bad, or make just a blackscreen for ppl who havn't discovered that area.
If you forgets to turn this off the whole map still may be "explored" when the cinematic are over. (ofc it saves all FOW's etc, so it would end up exactly as it was before the cinematic. )


Also, remember to turn it ON before the cinematic and it might not save units/building/items etc on minimap.

What if I had a camera that, during the cinematic, panned so that the player had a view of most of the map?

 

[BcBoy]

If it is during cinematics mode-ON it shouldn't matter.

Just try it out.
