Author Topic: Idea for in-game "movies"  (Read 405 times)

I had an idea of how to make movies/animations in-game. Wouldn't it be possible to make a setprint event and make an animation by prints. All an animation is a series of pictures. So why isnt it possible to make animations on blockland with a setprint event and pictures that make an animation. Maybe a server mod that lets you have delays longer than 30,000 so you can have longer animations.

I don't think this is possible.

Why wouldn't it be? Animations are just pictures strung together.

May not be possible to display pics.

Why? Just resize pictures, and pack them as prints.

Killer doesn't know what he's talking about. I know what you're saying though, and as far as I know it's possible but tedious.

this is a good idea

I said I don't think so.

I see what you're saying, but it seems to me that if you were using a setPrint event, you would have to set every single frame of the animation, which would be extremely tedious and next to useless in the manner that you want to use it. However, this might be possible with some kind of script that does the changing for you, which would be much, much faster in-game, but much, much more difficult to program. Someone who knows more about this correct me if I'm wrong though.
