by Shane Culliton · in Technical Issues · 06/28/2004 (12:51 am) · 5 replies

Does any body know if you can create cut scenes for games using torque!

If torque can't do it, do you know how id go about creating support for it!

Any help please!

thanks.

Look at the pathed camera - you can use that to make cut scenes including some control scripts. A good place to start are the scripts from the "TGE feature demo"

You could also try www.garagegames.com/index.php?sec=mg&mod=resource&page=view&qid=5018
and if you wanna do something for the community, combine the both! :)

I would love to do something for the community, but unfortunately this is just a quick splash and dash, i'm part of a small team entered in a game compo. 10 weeks to create a level. 3d third person adventure/ puzzle game. using torque as the engine... 4 artists 1 programmer... hmmm... plenty of kicks and giggles, so any help that comes my way is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Luxury!!! 4 artists!!! Wow ;-)

Lots of good resources for that type of game. Look at pathed camera (already in head), the movie camera, also search for my advanced camera resource to give you better camera control. Search for Cory Osborn's move manager changes that are move "console like".

I bet a few other things can help you along too

Thanks for all your help! I've got the cut scene working fine.
However, I am still getting this error:

Engine initialized...
Starting movie...
Could not locate texture: RedRuckusSample/AVI/test.avi_#0_#0
Could not locate texture: RedRuckusSample/AVI/test.avi_#1_#0
Stopping movie...
setContent(): Invalid control: guiMainMenu

It doesn't seem to effect the movie at all but i'd like to get rid of it, if i could. Any ideas!
