I've played this map called: S.W.A.T. made by raging_raptor, and i found it interesting on how everytime the unit moves this wav file of footsteps starts to play, and when the unit stops, the file stops playing... I was wondering how was this person able to pull that off?

He prolly bases his trigger on a 1x1 location with no hyper triggers oni it. It's quite simple.
The trigger is very simple and works like this:
The unit has a very small location 1x1 around it. When the unit moves to any direction the game will detect that there is no unit at that location thus making it seem like the game detects when the unit moves.
When there is no unit in the location it means the unit started moving and the wav plays.
The Move location trigger is always working to ensure that it keeps on working.
I'm not sure on how to make it stop playingt the wav when the unit stops moving. I think that one way would be to play a wav that has silent sounds.

It does it so the wav plays when it is not in the location and then it center the location in teh same trigger. if it doesn't move, the unit will be in the location and it won't play the wav.

use a null sound. go to sound rec and hit rec-stop fast. then use that to get it to stop

no you didn't, you used 2triggers and had a problem

What problem?
I used 2 triggers because you migth want to use another trigger with move location.

sounds like a problem
anyway, yours is inaccurate because it doesn't always work. the other version ALWAYS works because it can only fire when the unit walks ^_^

I have to agree with xbakapeterx on this one.
Beer Keg's trigger just adds unnecessary stuff for a negative effect on the performance.

Shouldn't the trigger be like this to avoid overlapping sounds? If they exist that is... I can't remember if sounds overlap in SC

If your using a footstep wav that is that long you have more issues you need to work on.
Besides if your footstep had a echo isn't it still possable for you to take another step before the echo disapates.
