Cut-scene
« on: 11 Dec 2002, 00:31:49 »
Hey

I got a tut somewhere (Can't rememeber) and it told me to put this in an init field.

                         exec "something.sqs"
And then, when I'm in the mission, press ctrl+\ and put in in a text doc.
It was something like that.

Q1) What was that formulae? Forgot it ;)
Q2) I think I had to put that in a text document. I did but do I have to make a space between the scripts? Or do I just keep on going ctrl+\  ?

....if that makes any sense.....

I'm not positive, but I think you are refering to the use of camera.sqs.

So, the link is right here, to Messiah's Camera.sqs tutorial

Hope that helps.

Hey

Yes, that's it thxs.
But you know how it says:

;=== 17:39:40
_camera camSetTarget [8759.96,5074.44,-99926.24]
_camera camSetPos [8757.43,3792.92,65.57]
_camera camSetFOV 0.700
_camera camCommit 0
@camCommitted _camera


I put that in a text doc but what do I do when I put another one in? Is it like this?

;=== 17:39:40
_camera camSetTarget [8759.96,5074.44,-99926.24]
_camera camSetPos [8757.43,3792.92,65.57]
_camera camSetFOV 0.700
_camera camCommit 0
@camCommitted _camera

;=== 17:39:40
_camera camSetTarget [8759.96,5074.44,-99926.24]
_camera camSetPos [8757.43,3792.92,65.57]
_camera camSetFOV 0.700
_camera camCommit 0

You know what, I think you should read snYpir's tute on camscripting before using camera.sqs.

Learn the theory behind it before you start using it.

Do you, for instance, know what camCommit does?

If you knew that, then you would know what effects that script had.

Don't worry, KTottE to the rescue!!

Hmm, must've been a mistake when you tried to view it.

I was just there, and it worked fine.

snYpir's cutscene tutorial

Try again.

Then you would of understood that that script would of run through the three camera positions in no-time, ending up on the third and last one.
