Sandbox2 - Creating a cutscene

[34sesamestreet]

fuck sandbox 2 keeps on crashing! why?

[SirPaladinov1]

Is dit een beetje hetzelfde als in unreal editor. Of is het iets totaal anders ?

[RickRay9]

I tried, but it wouldn't work, sorry. Thanks anyway, I'll try another time ;)

[hfdgdfigdfgdf]

thanks m8!

[AddefromSwe]

thx very much :D

[bigsnakedotcom]

thx so much , very usefall

[rockmandrum]

Je hebt nog steeds je HUD tijdens de cutscene. Kun je dat oplossen?

[leon1660]

Tnx dude

[utneophyte]

ik wil een spawn cutscene maken dat je met een VTOL crasht maar ik kan geen crashende vtol maake lol (en cutscene werkt nie) kan je ff helpe? :P thx

[Mecius]

Ik denk dat je het beste een model (geom entity) van een VTOL kunt pakken en die in trackview gaat animeren.

[utneophyte]

hoe animeer je dat dan lol ik ben niet zo goed in deze editor

[utneophyte]

lol werkt niet voor mij

[boznar1]

[MrJonnara]

@Mecius my sandbox keeps crashing when i add camera in track viewer, any reason? please reply

[CheifyX]

Wow, Thats Amazing!

Nice!

[Brygelsmack]

How did you add music to it?

[Mecius]

I used Sony Vegas to edit the video.

[Brygelsmack]

Ok, I wasn't clear. I meant, how do you add music to the cutscene?

[Mecius]

You should have an mp2 file of the music inside your maps folder and trigger it when the cutscene begins with a flowgraph.

[Brygelsmack]

Alright, thanks. I just made a cutscene to my map, and it turned out quite well.

[Brygelsmack]

Btw, what's the node name for music?

[Mecius]

Sound:PlaySoundEvent I think.

[Brygelsmack]

Ok, thanks.

[Brygelsmack]

Hmm. I've searched the sound browser for music, but I can't find anything. What to do?

[Mecius]

Do you mean you can't find the MP2 you've placed in the maps folder? In that case, just click the browse button and you can go to other folders.

[Brygelsmack]

Okay, look.

I have a cutscene. To that cutscene I want to add some music. I add a SoundEventSpot, but (of course) I have to add sound to it. Within "SoundEventSpot Properties" you'll see the word "Name". Pressing on it will bring you to the Sound Browser. In this browser I thought that I'd find some music patterns, but I don't.

Where can I find the game's music, and how do I use it in a cutscene?

[Mecius]

If you add custom music in the cutscene you will have to click on the Browse button in the sound browser and then browse to the mp2 file you want, the file must be somewhere inside the Crysis>game folder though. I'm not sure how to do it with existing Crysis music though.

[Brygelsmack]

Ok. I rather have the Crysis soundtrack than a custom music. I'll try figure it out tomorrow.

[milkman665]

Why does it keep on looping for me?

[Mecius]

Uncheck loop?

[milkman665]

it's unchecked but it keeps looping for some reason

[Mecius]

Does it loop as in play again when you enter the area trigger? In that case, just check only trigger once.

[milkman665]

no it just keeps looping and I can't do anything

[Brygelsmack]

Hmm, something's up...

My cutscene will only start once I've pressed Space (the jump-button in the game) in the Area Trigger.

Why is that?

[Mecius]

Strange, have you checked if your area trigger isn't too high above the ground?

[Brygelsmack]

That was a good idea, I'll see if that's the problem. Thanks.

[Mecius]

No problem :P

[Brygelsmack]

That was the case, thank you. It works now.

I have a question, though. In some cutscenes, you get the feeling that the character is running or walking, since the camera is shaking a little. How do I create that "feeling"?

[Mecius]

Its pretty hard to do, you have to move the camera around while it flies. Check out some of cryteks running cutscenes in their maps.

[Brygelsmack]

Oh, right. Thanks.

[HaloNeardz]

THX btw i have created my own objectives^^

[HaloNeardz]

How do you add black lines at the screen on the bottom and the top??

[Mecius]

You have to check the "cutscene" box in the sequence options.

[Brygelsmack]

And where can I find the "Sequence options"?

[Mecius]

At 0:53 its the third button from the left, the little guy with the lines next to him. It's called Edit Sequence.

[Brygelsmack]

Ah, I've found it, but those black lines doesn't appear... Why? :/

[Mecius]

You need to check 16:9 for the bars to show up.

[HaloNeardz]

What music is playing in the background?  TELL ME PLOX

[Mecius]

Inside The Fire by Disturbed, it's on their new album called Indestructible, coming june 3rd.

[megalazer2580]

So...wait? how do you make characters animate? like in your cutscene tests...What do i link in flowgraphs?
