Probably this is already known, but didn't see it here:

CBEGIN 1280.166 -820.562 70.0 090 345 000
CEND 1000.000 -820.562 70.0 090 345 270

the last numbers make the camera "roll"

Guys, I didn't use a tutorial to find this out, either did Jozels...we used our brain, and did some research..

No one handed this to us on a silver platter and said here's how it works..

You guys need to look at the info we gave..Read the Thread..all of it, then experiment..exactly what we did..

the best way to learn how it works..is exactly this..

There is enough info here to create your own cin and end files..just study it..

TrSniper - You do not need permission of anyone at this site to make a tutorial on this subject.

However, for it to be posted on this site in the downloads section it must meet some specific requirements that Eagle_Eye can assist you with.

Just remember that no matter how many tutorials you make, how simple you make them and how easy to follow they are, there will always be people without the time, inclination or effort to read or use them and the basic questions will continue to be asked in the forums section.

end file


This is a bit after the fact but i wasn't aware that the text file didn't make it in the upload. http://www.dfbarracks.com/mapdb/index.php?action=dm&mid=1350...
Please accept my apologies for that.
So below you will find the contents of that file

Ending Picture Explanation File

The End file I used is from joselz's CIN_TEST_JL DEMO. (and he knows how he got things working to start with, because the original file came from Commanche 4 and then reworked for BHD)

Below is the first few lines of that file.

PRIMARYCAMERA_INDEX CAMERA1

BEGIN IMAGEFADE
TICKS_START 0
TICKS_DURATION 2700
FILENAME "end.pcx"
FADETYPE FADEOUT
PAUSETICKS 0
END

;BEGIN LETTERBOX
; TICKS_START 0
; TICKS_DURATION 1749


All I did was comment out everything below the first few lines and increased the number of ticks to get about 30 seconds of time, and put in the name of my PCX file.

"DO NOT DELETE" any of the lines below those or it will not work.

I also found that using Note Pad you cannot,or at least I cannot save this file as a SAVE AS, it converts it to a text file and I don't know how to convert it back into a script file.

You can edit it in Note Pad, and just do a plain SAVE not SAVE AS, and then just rename it to what ever you want.

One other thing i found is if you have the Global music set it will play music with it. I found that there are three different musics depending on what number your Global is set for.(If you are using any music)

Example:

Global 1:

Global 15:

Global 20:

The last thing found is,is that you PAY THE PRICE for using it,
meaning if you use this, you cannot use the CIN file.

If you use both, this End file and the Cin file you only get the begining animation, and No end picture. It dosn't seem to want to work with any of the Camera Movements active.

So if you feel you might have a need for this and if it will work for you, Then please THANK José LZ and Eagle_Eye for their hard work in this topic. And you can thank 7>Snake for being very patient with me.

THANKS

Sorry, didn't mean to dig it up. But it was reli interesting, and I'm surprised how helpful EE was. I'd have just said "Do it yourself" and not helped at all.

And yes I realise by me adding another reply, I am keeping the topic alive, so sorry. But seriously it is facinating. :P
