well Fade out is for all players but i think u can make it to a single player using local player...

The filter you are using is in general and applies to all players and not a single player.

 

[CrazyWolf]

Yes but how do i apply fade filter for a single player or a group of players?

im not sure if that gonna work but u should try it:

Absolute Darkness
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Absolute Darkness 
    Actions
        Set AbsoluteDarknessGroup = (All players matching ((Matching player) Not equal to (Owner of (Casting unit))))
        Player Group - Pick every player in AbsoluteDarknessGroup and do (Actions)
            Loop
               Custom script: if (GetLocalPlayer == GetEnumPlayer) then
               Cinematic - Fade out over 0.50 seconds using texture Black Mask and color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%) with 0.00% transparency
               Custom script: endif
        Wait (2.00 x (Real((Level of Absolute Darkness  for (Casting unit))))) seconds
        Player Group - Pick every player in AbsoluteDarknessGroup and do (Actions)
            Loop
               Custom script: if (GetLocalPlayer == GetEnumPlayer) then
               Cinematic - Fade in over 0.50 seconds using texture Black Mask and color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%) with 0.00% transparency
               Custom script: endif

this might work i dunno for sure since i never checked if fade filter works with local player

I did what u said and it says: Absolute Darkness trigger was disabled due to errors and it marks your custom scripts.

> GetLocalPlayer == GetEnumPlayer

Should be
GetLocalPlayer() == GetEnumPlayer()

 

[Doom-Angel]

oh right i forgot the () just change this custom script:

Custom script: if (GetLocalPlayer == GetEnumPlayer) then

to this:

Custom script: if (GetLocalPlayer == GetEnumPlayer()) then

i hope that would work...

Edit: oh lol i also forgot the LocalPlayer () anyway Ace was faster
