Avi/mpeg/etc. type cinematics

by Jonathan Rose · in Torque Game Engine · 08/03/2003 (1:03 am) · 2 replies

Is it possible to give the game a loading cinematic? how about between level cinematics? if so, what file types can be used for cinematics? currently, I believe I might be limited to making mpegs and avi files.

The original movie playing code in Torque was ripped out when it was converted from being Tribes 2. There is now a little bit, and a few resources to play movies, but nothing really cross platform and incredible.

I would suggest using MPEG for your video resources until you know exactly what will be playing them; MPEG tends to be more cross-platform than AVI.
