Making video effects..
« on: 25 Jan 2012, 16:16:08 »
Hello,
       I was just thinking about, the Intro.As the Intro automatically starts in the beginning of a mission, so How to create a Skip able cutscene in the middle of a mission like an Intro? One more thing, As the cutscene starts, I want a little camera effect like a CCTV spy cam video, so can any one inform me about this?

Hi pal! As I said in other thread, the only way to make possible to manually skip cutscene within mission environment is to use radio call trigger Juliet (which you call by pressing twice 0 key) with "TERMINATE" camera effect and "repeatedly" mode set on.

As far as I know, you can put picture of CCTV camera in the game (as a "resource") and put that picture as overlay in the cutscene you make. Final effect should be similar to when you see Guba talking in TV in the official campaign.

It's a very lengthy process. It involves making a section in your description.ext.

Here's one tutorial on the use of 'dialogs' (which is what you're trying to create)

This tutorial is probably the one you need:

It's hard to explain how to make one in one post. So I highly recommend reading those tutorials :)

Yep, is time to go to OFP scripting school and get homeworks done!
