Cinematic Editor with TLR?

[infernocanuck]

Hey All!

I'd love to get the Cinematic editor working with TLR launch file. Has anyone been able to do this? If so, what do I have to do to get that lovely editor working?

Thanks!

[infernocanuck]

No matter! I got it figured out

[acegogo]

explain how please!!!!

Oh, of course! How silly of me! My error, friends! Didn't mean to keep the knowledge all to myself!

First, you create a .cfg file. Just open a new notepad (.txt) document and put in this:

Medieval2.exe @cin-ed.cfg

That's all you need to put in the document. Then save it as "cin-ed.bat" (it's important you put the .bat extension on your saved file.

Now, you make another notepad document, and put in all of this:

#-------------------------------------------

[debug_display]

#-------------------------------------------

[cine]

show = 1

And you save this file as "cin-ed.cfg"

Now, there is only one more step. In this new "cin-ed.cfg" file you just made, there is a line under [replay] that says File=C:..... In this line, put in the replay file you want to see under the cinematic editor. So, for example, I have a movie called "awesome" in my Long road Replay folder. So, I would put in: file = C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\The_Long_Road\replays\awesome.rpy



And that's all! Every time you want to see a particular movie, jut open up the cin-ed.cfg file, put in the name of the replay you want to bring up, and launch your new "cin-ed.bat" file.


If you guys have any questions, please, let me know. I hope this was clear enough!
