Can't put in MVE format. A long time ago volition was willing to compile PCXs into MVEs for people, but now that operation just seemed to die off. There's no converter.

And doesn't matter what color or anything else the movies are.

Use the latest FS_open. It supports all the major video codecs.

You need a 3D package, like Lightwave, 3Ds Max, Softimage XSI etc, and rendering experience also being able to make meshes would be good. So in short you can't make cutscenes by just pressing a few buttons;)

Yeah, Lightwave or Max...

psst, go for Max

Some say that trueSpace is best for beginners though I don't see how a program created by a drunk ape can be easy to use...

To quote Fawlty Towers,
"Would you please try and understand before one of us dies".

And stryke, if you see this, quoting Monty Python / Fawlty Towers / anything else does not make you funny. However, what do I care?
