Triggering abilities in cinematics

[YaY_simulato]

Hey, i got my cinematic kind of working.. Now it has picture, but still needs fixing and stuff ^^

I got couple of abilities that should be used in the cinematic, i have made these abilities from hero spells, but i turned them to be standard unit abilities.

I made a storm bolt, it works fine.

War Stomp (made from tauren chieftains) aint working =/ Could this be becouse theres 2 war stomp spells in Orc - Hero folder?

Animate Dead (from death knights) aint working either =/

Shockwave (done from tauren chieftains, but theres 2 of these aswell in the Orc - Hero folder)

I have used Unit - Order issued unit to <spell here from the list> at point or unit or overall (like casting warstomp). But nothing happens The hero wont cast the spell, thou i have added these spells to the hero which should use them.

The hero is created by a certain trigger before the cinematic begins.

What should i do to fix my problem, any ideas?

(Im thinking of making the spells hero abilities again and setting them to the hero via triggers, im not sure about this thou..)

check mana cost, cd and so on,
and use order unit with no target to use war stomp/animate dead
if it wont work, try the other order, or simply converty it to JASS and type the order Id of the spell you are using

The spells dont have any mana cost nor CDs, and i have used the no point trigger for war stomp and animate dead..

Neither i have no idea how to make that in jass :s I dont know even how to get coding jass :S

Perhaps post your triggers (and screenshot the heroes who have those abilities).

All the triggers are run by a previous one. Thats why theres no events.

And heres the screenshot of the hero with its abilities. (I create the hero for the cinematic via triggers)

I made some tests, it seemed that the hero had neutral hostile abilities, dont know why, but i changed em tryed to see the cinematic.. now it should cast warstomp, it does shockwave And it should happen in the 3rd trigger.. Realy wierd

 

[Razed]

Try to re-create the spells, and base them off 'Race' skills instead of those of Neutral Hostile. It may work.

 

[YaY_simulato]

I have based them off race skills, i just turned them into unit abilities, not hero...

I guess ill try to make them as hero abilities then and so on =/

EDIT:
I got my cinematic wrong, it seems that the ability paths were totaly messed up, dont know why
I'll try to +rep all you if i can
