i know ive had a lot of posts in here today but after 3 months of NO TR at all and workiong through the level editor i am sure its no surprise ive really rusty and forgotten a lot of things and in 3 months worlds of new things have come out. is there anyway to make a short sweet cutting scene: like lara walks into the final room or something......a certain .wav file plays and the camera circles the room and finally makes its way back to laura, and then you continue playing---please tell me that there is a way to do this! thanks------------------

maybe core design will add on that feauture if they produce a newer one, what do you think? i think WBM is working on maybe getting them to do that. i just think it would be neat. i thought you could animate custom objects already??? you mean you cant?  i must be losing my mind!------------------

Why can't you use Flyby cameras to do this?

thats what i was wondering too.. cant you just set up one of the hardcoded camera shots to do your work>>??? like one of the default shots when like lara walks into a room???NOTE: for those of you whom i have offended with my last quote i apologize. it was taken from a movie called " An Officer and A Gentleman" and it was not meant to offend anyone. thanks WBM for correcting me in my error~~~~~~ ------------------

According to the manual, pages 44-45, use the OCB for the flyby camera. Set button 6, 9, and 10.The manual has a very good description of this. IP: Logged |

thanks, i wish that i could make a camera shot , kinda treat it like a trigger when you walk in the room. like...umm lara walks in the camera shoots still but there are baddies running around that you could see. im just thinking of all this stuff, just the little things that come to mind.------------------

Baddies do keep moving. Only Lara is frozen. I know, because too many times I have played a level with these types of flyby, and I had to watch enemies come out and start toward me while I was frozen. I really hate that. You can actually have the flyby camera trigger the enemies.

If you want to make lara move during a flyby you just don't push the button which disables lara control. Also let's say you want lara to walk down a big corridor and you want the screen to fly up and get a far shot of lara walking. The only thing is that you must make here walk(shift+forward). That's as close as you can get to a cutscene for now. If your good you can make lara do stunts and get different angles.IP: Logged |
