Since I don't know if this would fall under triggers, or data editor, I'll ask here... Yay!

During a few of the maps in the campaign and such, you'll see the units (like Zealots, Marines, Marauders, etc.) doing a sort of fanfare.
They'll raise their weapons up and fire or do some other form of cheering.
How is that done?

I think it's their victory or taunt animation. E.g. if you used to trigger to make a unit play it's Victory (or Taunt) animation, it might do that cheering thing.

Just for the information: you can also trigger this as a player on B.net: select a group of units and type "-cheer" or "-dance". :awesome:

I think there might actually be a global hotkey linked to making your units dance/cheer. It might only work once the "Score Screen/Return to Game" menu shows up.

I might just be thinking of RA2 though.

I'm not kidding. >_>

But anyways, if you look into Rock Arena's triggers, you'll find how to trigger it: at the very first marine's spawn and when marines jump, the guy runs the cheer animation.

Sorry for double post.

I found this: http://forums.sc2mapster.com/resources/tutorials/1888-data-dancing-sc2/#p1

Also, it is "/dance" and "/cheer". Sorry about misleading you with a hyphen. :/

1) They ain't rival
2) They are a great source of knowledge
3) Unlike Sixen, I am not afraid to link to something relevant if it isn't part of my own community

ManCubuS -- Seems like something's broken regarding the site then. Sadge...

Oh_Man -- have i ever told u guys my SC2 pro-gamer story

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.

Oh_Man -- true
