Our own intro vid!

[psYco]

I was just wondering is it possible to make our own AVI video play when you start up the game? Like you know as you double click, it cums up and says Gennesis3D then RealityFactory then my own dev team video?

Oh and I have heard sum where that you can turn Gifs to AVI? I think that would be cool so I can just make my team logo video a gif then convert it! Does any one know how to do that???

Thanks for the help!

I had another question but ive forgotten!! GRRRRR, any way MaB will post back here l8r if I remember!

Yup you can add your own intro, open the ini editor and it has an option for a cutscene on the right.

Yes it is possible to convert a gif to an avi file. http://www.radgametools.com/bnkdown.htm Its a free program that you can donate if you want.

Convert a file: The RAD converter can convert almost any type of file to another type. For example, you can convert a bunch of BMPs into an AVI, GIFs into JPEGs, Smackers into flics, QuickTimes into AVIs, wave files into different sample rates, 24-bit images into 8-bit images, etc.

This tool will also allow you to add sound

Mixing audio is the process of interleaving little bits of sound data into each video frame. Normally, you won't have to perform this task, because Bink will compress the audio track of an AVI or QuickTime automatically as it compresses the video frames. You only need to use the mixer when you want to replace or add another audio track to a Bink file.

Bink supports any number of audio tracks in a Bink video file, but it can currently only play one audio track for each movie (you can play two movies each with their own sound track, though). Bink's support for any number of audio tracks is a handy feature because you can put multiple languages in one Bink file and select between them at runtime.

To mix audio into a Bink file, just highlight a Bink file and an audio file to mix in (hold down the Control key while clicking your mouse to highlight more than one file at a time). Once the files are selected, click the "Mix in Audio" button to open the mixer window. The mixer window will open with the following options. You can click on the screenshot, or select from the following links to jump right to the help topic you need.

Good luck

It's in RealityFactory.ini, and you can edit it with tools/inieditor.exe or by hand.
