[Help] Making a Intro

[Deihim007]

Hey Guys!

I'm looking to learn how to make a intro.

Already checked out the wiki figured it's done by functions like setCameraMatrix , etc...

I want to make a scenario that a plane is landing on for example Ls Airport.

And another scenario that you being chased by a cop vehicle.

An example would really help a lot.

With Regards.

It'll be kinda hard with the MTA's mechanics. You'll have to use peds, setPedControlState and a ton of timing.

I was pondering the same, but I ended up deciding to record live action on the server, edit it properly with Premier and upload it on Youtube. Then I think I can stream it full-screen as an intro movie.

I think it would be more fluid this way, if you do it with the MTA engine you'll have dead loading moments every time you're switching the cameraMatrix to a new scene.

Anybody tried the Youtube way? Are there any drawbacks?

 

Cheers!

@Zorgman, we have a GTA V scene on our server, which is played through HTML on full-screen, and works just perfectly.

What did you used for capturing? GTA V Scene Director it self?

@deihim007 I use Icecream Screen Recorder. The free version is limited to 10 min videos, but should satisfy all MTA needs
