How do you create a cut scene? Options

[Pickysaurus]

I would very much like to know how to do this... if anyone could give me some pointers in the right direction I'd be very grateful.
I need to know how to make the units do things, if I can do it without worldbuilder (if so then how do I use it)
As well as camera position and inserting voice clips

Hi,

you will have to do it with world builder.
You can make cinematic sequences with the script tool. Create a new script, and start adding steps in the [Action if true] tab.
You will mainly use the stuff in the tabs "Camera", "Scripting", "Units", "Teams" and "User".
Some common stuff:

Camera
-Letter box (on/off) adds black bars on top and bottom of the screen, removes build menu.
-follow units (on/off)
-Move camera/reset camera (basically you tell the camera to move to a certain location in a set time)
  -Modify (here you can set your camera to zoom in, or change its vertical angle during the movement)
-FX (black out, blend in etc.)

Scripting
-Briefing (allows you to display some text)
-Time
  -freeze/unfreeze (that's the main relevant thing when doing cinematics, sometimes you may want the entire playfield to freeze when the camera is on the move)

Unit (Orders a single unit to do something, mostly used in cinematics:)
-Move
-Attack
-Die

Team (Orders a team of units/buildings/items to do something)
-Move
-Attack
-Die
-Transfer to another player

User
-Flash (makes units/buildings etc flash)
-Input on/off (disables keyboard/mouse so you cannot intterupt camera moves)
