Game Ending
« on: February 25, 2004, 09:07:24 am »

Sorry if this has been posted before, I searched, but couldn't find anything...

Has there been any progress in getting the game ending sorted out? I know there were 2 problems, the first was a licensing issue (no body really knew who owned the rights to the original 3DO movies). The second was actually porting them into a format that can be played.

If anyone knows the progress of including a game ending please let me know. A friend of mine (can you believe, someone who has never played SC2) wants to play UQM - but I've told him to wait until the game has an ending...

Thanks!

Wrong two issues.

(a) Current CVS version can play 3DO videos if you have the disc and extracted them.

(b) The PC slideshow ending is waiting on the new resource system.  (Consult content/slides for text and graphics.)

I have the .DUK movie files, and played them on the newer CVS which plays it. And the quality is the same quality as in the 'captured' movies in PNF, or at least very close.

Get them here.

The zip files on the download page... Are those the DUK files? I don't wanna download 50MB to find out they're the wrong files (I live in South Africa, and the internet is REALLY slow here...)

Thanks
