This should work by now but it doesn't.

[Lord_Grismath]

I got around to merging my old 01_mclothes and marinerboam COGs, and the result is below. This however, doesn't work either.

I ParSec-ed this, (commenting out the MotS cutscene verbs) and it found no errors.

[ENSIGN]

Are you going to put voice acting in the cut scene?

[SaberMaster]

I just read through the cog, and I noticed several errors. But you didn't say what you
were having a problem with. http://forums.massassi.net/html/confused.gif

SetThingLook() must be used with players, they're not AI. You can't use MoveToFrame() on actors, use AISetMoveFrame() You should have a fast pulse to cycle the camera instead of setting the camera every few seconds. playerpos should be a ghost, not a position. Improper use of "effect." Should be "affect." http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif

Thank you for the grammatical help, SaberMaster http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif

Well now, my primary problem was the fact that the cutscene wasn't evenm starting up at all when I entered the triggered sector. http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif

OMGOMGOMG

...I was sitting in my bedroom, testing RoX on my archaic laptop, and the cutscene WORKED. It worked on that crappy machine, and not on my comparatively elite system?!?!?
