Sound file for cinematic.

[King Semos]

Just wondering, does the sound file for a custom intro need to be a certain type of sound file?

[Neikun]

I believe .ogg is the proper one.

I believe .ogg is the proper one.

Ty, the option I get is Ogg Vorbis Files. I hope that's the same thing.

I convert anything i want to 128 kb .ogg on this site. always works perfect in Grimrock.

Also use it to convert anything to .wav for custom sounds in the editor. For music, no scripting is needed, but for sounds, you need to define the sound, and point to it in the sounds.lua file in your dungeons scripts folder.

I got the sound working for my cinematic.



But the picture wont display. When I run the dungeon in Grimrock it crashes immediately with an error message.

I THINK you CALL it a .tga in your cinematic script. EVEN TOHUGH ITS a .dds

Or

May be a resolution issue. Say the game wants 1280x1024, and you're feeding it 1024x768. (Those are not accurate figures! Not sure what resolution Grimrock requires!)
