Hello

I was thinking is it possible to create a Camera (possibly something like TDM Intermission) that shows onto a Television.

For CODUO

How would i do this?

Thanks

Pretty sure it isn't possible, wait for Drofder or NM to respond before giving up hope though.

Isn't possible.

Nothing else I can really add on.
You could always make an animated texture to give the illusion of an active screen, but that would be pretty complex.

Thanks for the Replys

Sorry for the truth but i just want to know one thing: You thought something like in Duke Nukem 3D ?

Rofl @ that pic.

Nunquam quoque tardus

Google just made that picture a just a slight amount better

making TV in a map is easy!
Here are the things you need:
1. a GIF animation file.
2. A program that can save EACH frame of the GIF.

After making all the frames saved as textures (I recommend using DDS format), you will want to open Radiant.

Now create as many the same brushes as many frames you have, so that they make up the whole film.
Afterwards put all the textures on all the "frames". Use "Fit Texture" function.
If you have many frames, it will take pretty long time, but how nicely it will be looking afterwards!
Done? now select all the "frames" and turn them all into a script_brushmodel.
If you want the animation to be played by a trigger, make one.
The last thing you should do is learning the frame's length (a SINGLE frame, not all taken together).

Here we're ending the mapping part and starting the scripting one.
I assume you are familiar with the scripting.

there are several ways to animate the thing you have just created. I advise you to follow the way below:

using a "for" loop:
By the way, this example assumes that the animation moves along the axis Y. if you want it to move to another side, use the negative value of the length.
If you want it to move along the axis X, use
animation.origin += (frame's length, 0, 0);

If you want it to move along the axis Z, use
animation.origin += (0, 0, frame's length);

I added that to my map, and it looked really nice.

You could also use animated textures. (take a look at the tracks on a tank, they are animated textures, not animated models...)

Excuse me, but I haven't got what the camera system the subject author described is -.-

It's possible to make a movie, as well as making a spawning in a certain place as a spectator. If it's necessary to move the spectator, link it to script_model and use motion things.

Though I probably nevertheless have a wrong idea about the system. Therefore can anyone explain me?

Just think of it as him wanting an actual CCTV camera, showing what's going on in view of the camera (e.g. multiple people moving, firing weapons, etc.). It's not possible.

Not possible. Try DUKENUKEM3DEDITOR.exe

CCTV... if he's going to make it record everything what is going on, it's impossible, of course.
