You have to create the script "ending.lua" and place it in your "mod_assets/cinematics" folder.

eg:-

Code: Select all

-- simple one image cinematic
enableUserInput()
startMusic("assets/samples/music/myending.wav")

-- show the image
showImage("assets/textures/cinematic/intro/ending.tga")
fadeIn(2)
sleep(4)
fadeOut(4)
Have a trigger fire this script to end the game:-

Code: Select all

function endgame()
completeGame("ending.lua") -- think this is right??
end
You can put the images/wav files where you want, as long as you give the correct path for them in the script. It's all packed up in the .dat when you export/publish.

by making a lua script, you mean a file made with a text editor, and .lua ?

Yup. Make an ordinary .txt file in the correct directory (cinematics in this case), and simply rename it .lua

This:

Code: Select all

-- show the image
showImage("mod_assets/cinematics/ending.tga") attempt to call global 'showimage' (a nil value)
fadeIn(2)
sleep(4)
fadeOut(4)
needs to be in the ending.lua, not in the lua script entity.

Your image actually has to be .dds as stated here: http://www.grimrock.net/modding/how-to- ... inematics/
You also need to name it correctly ("image" vs "ending" ?) and put it in the correct folder.
