hello, i recently looked at redeye's animated menu script on this forum, and i wanted to ask this question there but it was locked... (sigh)

anyway, would it be possible to have a video on in the background of a menu? because i was kinda confused with the animated menu script, surely i can't be hard to tell the game to run a video instead of show a picture, and if you point me in the right direction, i'll try and script it myself!

Grab a Mod that contains AirMod (most of them do) then you can use an AirMod command to play a video on the background of your menu.

Only in a mod, it isnt.

Look at the Community Guide. The Animated Menus by me, are in there too.

I will answer your question here too.

right, the problem with airmod is that i can only run it with ply's mod, and seeing as i'm not willing to pay for these things, and i won't be able to build game, it's petty musch useless, isn't it?

And that's why the internet economy has gone down the tubes.

If you want a video on your menu, then a Mod is your only option (Unless you're fine with a VERY LARGE script that flashes a series of huds and plays a sound with them). I didn't say you had to go BUY one. Heck, go make your own for all I care. It's all the rage these days, look at all the fly little homies making their own Mods. Get out there and be hip and cool and all that stuff.

Anyway, you cant expect to make a game without spending some cash. I mean, mods now can do great things, and make gameplay far better.

At the end of it all, he's have to buy darkbasic professional, darklights and all the stuff that's required to make the exe compile, and that'd come way over the price that you charge. So to be honest, its better off just buying it off you.

That's what Hockeykid and I ended up doing with the Nazi Zombies game; 132 individual frames for a 4 second background video Which doesn't make sense to me now, considering we have a mod

yeah...

well, no offence ply, i'm not buying loads of stuff on the internet and not buying anything from you because i think you might give me viruses, i just don't buy stuff online.
perhaps if you put it on TGCS, i could buy it then.

If I wanted to give you viruses, you'd have had them by now, regardless of if you bought something from me or not.


I refrain from using TGCS because they take a cut from your profit (That's what I've heard and have been told), and since I'm already getting a profit cut straight from paypal, that would only decrease the income even further.

Wait, don't most other mods like S4real's mod also use Airmod?
And isn't S4real's mod free for commercial use??
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Look for me on CoD4 online for PC. My username's Arbiquator (strange I know but it's the first thing that came to mind)

Wow. Ply is a very well trusted member, and most certainly valued by many here. He would never do that.

This thread has completely gone of course.

Well, as long as your computer is openly connected to the internet, you are technically open to attack by hackers. The only thing is, you're just one of billions of boats floating in the sea known as "Teh Intertubez"!!
