Cutscenes

[Link]

I plan to expand my movie making in Kyle Katarns Alternate Dimension Part 3 but to get it just the way I imagine it I'll need some form of cutscenes.

 

I was just curious if any one here can create them and would be willing to help me out?

Hmmm...how extensive are these cutscenes? I always love some good cutscene work.

They would involve talking of course, perhaps ships moving as well. Various angles etc.

 

Sorry I can't be specific, I have yet to write the script.

Well, when your ready shoot me a PM!

That is great Thanks a bunch. Can it be on any map? (Noob question)

[therfiles]

Unfortunatly, no. You will need to hand me the .map file for me to write cutscenes...unless this is impossible for you, then there *may* be another way.

 

You see, there are script-essential entities that need to be added to the map, like cameras and such.

You can add cameras and the like with ease:

Interesting...could you still add ref_tags, target linkings, and keys to all your entities? SiLink, could you maybe elaborate on the technique you explained in the tutorial? It looks very promising...but difficult.

BobaFett knows more about that than I do, basically you can add entities to any map without actually doing any damage to its current state. I believe if you can add it in Radiants entities window, you can add it ingame afterwards to any map.

 

Sorry for the mumbled response, in a rush

Basically, you can add/remove/edit any entity. However its not strictly ANY entity, as some entities can't be changed as they get compiled into the map (such as md3 models. To add a model to a map, you need to use a work around involving making a health dispenser and giving that a model...). This is the technique you see used on servers with modified versions of ffa3 all the time, as entities are handled server-side.

I didn't know that =O Nice

I always wanted to learn how to make cutscenes and make my own story for a mod. Never had time to learn how.
