big cine-ed problem

[Munch]

Hi, I have used the cinematic editor before and it has worked fin. However, now I have a really good film idea and really want to make it, I find that when I press insert to add a keyframe, it doesn't add one. This kindof makes it impossible to make the film. I am desperate to make it and just have fun making films, but I just cannot do it. BTW, the same applies with the kingdoms cine-editor.


Sorry if it is a stupid problem but I don't think it is but I will be very grateful all the same if it is a stupid problem ()

Cheers for any help

At first, there already is a stickied Q&A thread in the Medieval 2 General Discussion. You could've asked there
About your problem: if you apply a keyframe it always appears at the red line. But the red line is not always placed at the current time frame. So what you need to make sure is to right-click at the current position (the current time is shown by the green line). Directly after your right-click press "Ins" to add a keyframe.

Cheers, so it's kinda about the timing if I understood right...

Yeah I don't know your exact problem. But from what I think could be the reason for it, it is the wrong timing of the red line...

I was fiddling with the editor recently, maybe I know. Did you create a camera before you tried to add a keyframe? Try clicking on the timeline window before inserting a keyframe. Sometimes I've found I had to select the timeline bar before I could add a keyframe. Good luck.
