problem with the video sequence

First, good work with the "Babylon Project" , I'm really a big fan of this game.


I have a problem and hope someone here can help me.

Since I've also starting create my own missions. I have a few problems, and do not know how it works.


Thus:

If a text message comes, I would like , a Video Seqence played .


Just as in Tutorial "Lady Rose"



It could be a step by step explanation


Would be very grateful.

MfG

Re: problem with the video sequence
Not quite getting what you mean.  Are you talking about the small animation played during the message in the upper left corner?  If so then all you need to do is select the message in the event editor and give it a proper ani file.  You can find those in the the core .vp file in the hud directory using VPView included in the tools directory.  There are also quite a few new ones by Revan in Revan.vp in the Zathras.rar.  I've been planning on putting together a list of them but haven't had the time yet. 

If you are talking about something else then can you give a mission that you have seen it in?
No-one ever listens to Zathras. Quite mad, they say. It is good that Zathras does not mind. He's even grown to like it. Oh yes. -Zathras

Yes I mean the top left corner small sequences.

they can be with the mission editor to create event,
in message properties

entered all but comes to no sequence.

Tutorial by lady Rose, stand by, I have something extra to do

Unfortunately I do not understand exactly what.

"lady Rose
(notice you must go hud directory to make this, it wont work in message properties), make copy from text close events and go there again, it will be gone you must do it again (cause unknown)"

big sorry for my very bad englich

Re: problem with the video sequence
Okay, in the message editor (part of the Events Editor.)

There's a window where you enter the text of the message.

Under that you should see three drop-down menus, 'ani file', 'wave file', and 'persona.'

Just select one of the entries under 'ani file.'

Re: problem with the video sequence
   
yes do it but it always comes when I try it never the sequence

therefore I thought it must be something extra set.

times but I will re-install everything.

Re: problem with the video sequence
No! There's no need to reinstall anything! Don't do that.

I still don't understand the problem. Could we get some screenshots?

Re: problem with the video sequence
That's really weird. Somehow the VP with the .ani file in it must be missing. FUBAR?

Re: problem with the video sequence
I just looked at the core and there is no b5-pilot.  There are b5-pilota b5-pilotb and b5-pilotc.  Try one of those.

Re: problem with the video sequence
I think for the standard starbox you need to enter Starfield.pof complete with the .pof file extension. 

The same applies for the comm videos.  Enter pilota.ani with the .ani file extension to get it to work in-game. 

I know someone around here has a list of all the comm .anis.  That someone is not me.

Re: problem with the video sequence
Thanks Miburo, that's just what I was thinking of.

Project Zathras also has a bunch of additional .anis contributed by Revan late last year.  Here's what I see in the .vp:

Capcomm_Anderson.ani
Capcomm_Brakiri1.ani
Capcomm_Byron.ani
Capcomm_CENTAURI2.ani
Capcomm_CENTAURI4.ani
Capcomm_Cartagia.ani

Capcomm_Matheson.ani
Capcomm_Mikhailovich.ani
Capcomm_NARN2.ani
Capcomm_Neroon.ani
Capcomm_Raiders.ani

pilot_Ivanova.ani
pilot_Sakai.ani
pilot_bester.ani
pilot_byron.ani
pilot_sinclair.ani

The filenames are self-descriptive but if you want to see what the little videos actually show download VPVIEW32 and open the Revan.vp file from the Zathras pack.  The user interface comes with a built-in .ani viewer.

While we're at it, here's the list of skyboxes from the Zathras pack since I don't think they've been listed anywhere else?  :confused:

SB_CenautirPrime.pof
SB_CentauriPrime_2.pof
SB_Epsilon3.pof
SB_Epsilon3_2.pof
SB_Epsilon3_3.pof
SB_Epsilon3_4.pof
SB_Minbar.pof
SB_Minbar_2.pof
