I have attempted to add a music file at the start of my first level, there is no script error but the music file does not play, the file is in the correct folder so i am not sure why its not working.

Also, at the end of my last level i have a trigger and the cut scene script, i have added the script with the appropriate movie in the correct folder but nothing happens when my player activates the trigger.

i am running the standard version on update 6.40 could this have anything to do with it?

Any help would be extremely appreciated.

The Standard edition does not support certain media formats - they are listed in the reference manual.

this may seem a stupid question, but where can i find the reference manual?

i found the manual and it appears that both the files i am using (.wmv and .mp3) are usable with this edition.

yet neither of the files work.

:S ???

You need the Commercial Edition for playing movies. If a feature only works with a certain edition, it's marked in the manual with [E], [C], or [P]. A table listing the differences between editions can also be found on the Gamestudio website.

thank you very much for that, i converted the mp3 to a wav and it is now working.

this is for a school assignment and my school has the commercial edition of the program, but it is on a lesser update than the one i am running.

is there anyway that i could compile the final level on that computer and then transfer it back to this, making the video work?

if not, is there a way of setting a trigger to display an image before cutting the scene?

Compiling the level on the school computer will not transfer the ability to play movies to your system. But displaying an image works, just use a panel as described in one of the first lessons of the C-Script Workshop.

is it possible to end the game once this image is displayed?

exit

haha!

without doing it manually?
