JJ2 needs movies

[CannibalBob]

Yeah, it does! http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/image/emoticons/eek.gif The first and last movies, the only 2 in the whole game, were cool! Actually, I'm surprised a game like JJ2 doesn't have a whole PILE of movies, like what the good ol' game of Worms 2 did. http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/image/emoticons/happy.gif



I thought there'd be an introduction movie to the beginning of each Episode, like showing Jazz and Spaz going into some time warp and landing in the Colon city place at Episode 2 (that's episode 2, right?) and an ending movie showing Devan shell activate the machine, making Jazz and Spaz return to Diamondus, Medivo and the other place. Ugh, I feel sick and tired... http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/image/emoticons/tired.gifhttp://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/image/emoticons/sick.gif

Wouldn't all them movies be so... SO sweet?! That'd kick AS... I mean, ARSE! It'd really contribute to the storyline (yes, there is one! http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/image/emoticons/pimp.gif) and personally, I'd want to play Jazz a few more times to watch him kick Devan's arse! http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/image/emoticons/laugh.gif

Interesting idea but no cheating the filter.

[Grath AR]

Yeah!Have a animation space in the jcs so you can put in animation!

But that's limited to what the tileset has. He's referring to a real cutscene.



Ya, it'd be cool to have more!

Make your own with ddflic on J2S, see if that really works. ;P

[CannibalBob]

Oh, i TRIED that ddflic thing, and it just needs a readme! I want to know what the movie needs. I got strange results, and the movie's didn't work. It probably needs a required size, palette, frame number, maybe even file size!

[Bobby aka Dizzy]

I'm pretty sure that it has to be 256 colors and 640x480.

[JJ BBoy KS]

That ddflic thing didn't work for me either. I think more movies'd be cool too! http://jazz2.nagcentral.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

[CannibalBob]

DDflic probably needs specific specifications to start smoothly and stay running good. (ha)

[SteelTalon]

Well, what I'm curious about is how you'd use it in-game. I mean, you use the "Nextlevel" command in JCS to summon a video, but how to you get it to link to another level, not the menu?

[Bobby aka Dizzy]

You would have to overwrite the ending movie and call the next level to the ending movie.



JJ2 will only play the ending and intro movies.

[Fear]

I think you are wrong bobby, now if someone would be good enough in programming then you'd be able to edit the movies and place one instead of the image you get at the beginning of an episode (know what im talking about?) then you could place a .gif there...

[Bobby aka Dizzy]

I'm pretty sure from what I remember is that ddflic only converts avi files.

[Fear]

Thats what they all say Bobby, the mind is a strange thing, it forgets, it remembers when it doesnt need to and it controls the body
