Mercutio 0 Posted November 19, 2001 I don't really know how to properly use intros and outros, and I'm though I'm quite familiar with the editor I have no experience with scripting. I want to use an intro but I don't know how to make it end and segue into the core of the mission. If possible, I don't want to use a script for this. I just want the mission to start with an intro where a couple of triggers will be activated, and then the mission starts. If anyone can offer any help I'd be extremely grateful. I have a great mission idea based on Black Hawk Down and I need to do this to make it really work. So again, please, some help. Thanks! And sorry if I sound all whiny and pathetic, I'm just excited about getting this mission running. Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingN 251 Posted November 19, 2001 First choose the advanced mode in the editor in the right top corner of the screen. Then select "intro" in the slot wich says "mission" in the right side. Now you can begin to make your intros in you mission. To get started make some units and the a trigger on the units. In the condition slot write "true" so the trigger will now be activated at the beginning of the mission. Then select effects in the trigger and there are the camera settings. Try those different types of cameramodes and stuff and the try the intro. Intros will be automatically added to the mission when you export the mission to the single missions. I hope this helped you.

KingN 251 Posted November 19, 2001 btw You'll have to use those triggers if you want to chance the camera views in the mission but scripts will not be needed... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mercutio 0 Posted November 19, 2001 Thanks King. But how do I make the Intro come to and end? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingN 251 Posted November 19, 2001 You will have to make a trigger wich is activated when the mission should be ended (I hope you can make this). In this trigger you choose "Type" ---> "end#1". (Edited by King Nothing at 10:35 pm on Nov. 19, 2001) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mercutio 0 Posted November 19, 2001 I'll try that and get back to you. Do I have to merge the intro with the mission first? Sounds obvious but I'm not sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingN 251 Posted November 19, 2001 No...When you've done the intro(s) then just save the game exporting it in the single missions. the game will save the missions and intros in one pack in the single missions. When you start the mission it will play the intros too. No merging or scripting needed. ps.
