Intro to Mission
« on: 31 Aug 2003, 17:05:53 »
How can I start playing the mission after the Intro ,, It seems like when I put a end1 trigger to my Intro it will go to the island map screen instead of going to the mission.. am I doing something wrong or i need a script or trigger,, ?

You need to do your cutscenes while in "mission" mode, not "intro" mode. Intro's will be played before the briefings.

Also note that when you do cutscenes in the "mission" mode, you cannot get past them by pressing escape, so if the player dies he will get quite bored when he needs to look at the cutscene over and over again.

basicaly after the intro it WILL go to the mission (and any briiefing you have made) but not in the editor.  You need to export them to single (or MP) missions first which will pbo them and then run it through the missions section.

it will work when you've finished it all!

so how I go about playing the mission right after the cutscene ? I tried to export them to mp but did not work.. or do I have to use a scipt or trigger ?

if you've made a cutscene under the "intro" tab and ended it properly using an end type trigger.  then after it ends it should go straight to the mission.

have you made a cutscene as a separate mission and are trying to link the missions?  i'm very confused otherwise why it wouldn't work...

However just bear in mind that intros (ie. cutscenes before the briefing) will not work in MP ;)

Oh, that figures. I alwaysed wondered why MP makers wanted to make that black screen with x / y KBs left. ;D
