Mission 1 blackout black in into mission2??
« on: 20 Jul 2005, 00:55:52 »
Can I Fade out my Mission 1 and have it unfade directley into Mission2 with no briefings no Mission acomplished etc etc....

Basically Ive decided to merge mission 1 and 2 but I dont want ALL my objects from mission 1 and 2 in the same file to help reduce lag

basically you start on one corner of an island and end up on the other
I want it to fade out then fade into the other side of the island wich is mission 2

Id prefer to use a sqs script code snippet if possible

Thanks Guys!!!!

Yes you can, but it takes more than a script snippet. You need:

1) Two missions (obviously)
2) A description.ext file in each mission
3) A campaign folder with a third description.ext

If you want to fade a mission into another you need to make a campaign from them. Then you can configure your campaign so that mission1 is followed by mission 2 (without briefing/debriefing)

The description.ext in the campaign folder tells OFP what mission will follow when mission1 ends (in this case mission2). The description.ext in mission2 will contain information that  tells ofp to start the mission without briefing.

I will not go into any more detail now. Have a look at the tutorials. I can help you with specific questions later.

There are easy to use campaign tutorials in the editor depot

When you get back from your research, thereƂ's a perfectly good example in the original CWC Campaign. In one mission you start as a pilot on the ground (on Malden). The mission ends when you manage to get your Warthog into the air. In the following mission you are flying over Kolgujev after a (nearly) seamless transition.

Good luck with the description files.
