I think these wonders need/deserve a movie too:

1. New wonder models
2. Underground Tomb
3. Corporation movies if possible
4. Religious shrine movies in stead of just a picture
5. ???

Here's a small tutorial how to add movies to a mod:
1. Put the movies in your mod-folder assets\art\wonders\movies
2. Edit CIV4ArtDefines_Movie.xml (in xml\art) and add an entry for each movie you want to use like this:

<MovieArtInfo>
<Type>ART_DEF_MOVIE_WESTERKERK</Type>
<Path>Art/Movies/Wonders/Westerkerk.bik</Path>
<KFM>None</KFM>
</MovieArtInfo>
3. Edit CIV4BuildingClassInfos.xml (in xml\buildings) and add an entry for each wonder you want to use like this:
<BuildingClassInfo>
<Type>BUILDINGCLASS_WESTERKERK</Type>
<Description>TXT_KEY_BUILDING_WESTERKERK</Description>
<iMaxGlobalInstances>1</iMaxGlobalInstances>
<iMaxTeamInstances>-1</iMaxTeamInstances>
<iMaxPlayerInstances>-1</iMaxPlayerInstances>
<iExtraPlayerInstances>0</iExtraPlayerInstances>
<bNoLimit>0</bNoLimit>
<bMonument>0</bMonument>
<DefaultBuilding>BUILDING_WESTERKERK</DefaultBuilding>
<VictoryThresholds/>
</BuildingClassInfo>
4. Edit CIV4BuildingInfos.xml (in xml\buildings) and add an entry for each wonder you want to use. Point the movietag to the movie like this:
<MovieDefineTag>ART_DEF_MOVIE_WESTERKERK</MovieDefineTag>
5. Add text tags in some text-xml ie. Civ4GameText.xml (in xml\text) like this:
<TEXT>
<Tag>TXT_KEY_BUILDING_WESTERKERK</Tag>
<English>Westerkerk</English>
</TEXT>
<TEXT>
<Tag>TXT_KEY_BUILDING_WESTERKERK_PEDIA</Tag>
<English>. .. .. .. .. .The Westerkerk ("western church") is a Protestant church in Amsterdam, built in 1620-1631 after a design by Hendrick de Keyser. The church is right next to Amsterdam's Jordaan district, at the bank of the Prinsengracht canal.
The spire is the highest church tower in Amsterdam, at 85 meters (279 feet). The crown topping the spire is the Imperial Crown of Austria of Maximilian I. The church bells were made by the brothers Hemony.
Rembrandt van Rijn was buried in the Westerkerk on October 8, 1669. The exact location of the grave is unknown, but presumed to be somewhere along the northern wall. Rembrandt's lover Hendrickje Stoffels is also buried here, and his son Titus van Rijn may also be. Other painters buried in the Westerkerk are Nicolaes Berchem, Gillis d'Hondecoeter, Melchior d'Hondecoeter and Govert Flinck. The church organ is decorated with doors painted by Gerard de Lairesse.
The Westerkerk is located close to the Achterhuis (now Anne Frank House) where diarist Anne Frank, her family and others hid from Nazi persecution for two years during World War II. The Westerkerk is mentioned frequently in her diary - its clock tower could be seen from the attic of the Achterhuis and Anne Frank described the chiming of the clock as a source of comfort. A memorial statue of Frank is located outside the church. - WIKI</English>

Brandenburg Gate in Berlin

As requested by Wolfshanze :)

Okay... what did I do wrong? I've got the building info pointing to the right movie tag-line (I know, because I can successfully get a static DDS file to show a picture), then I use the following code for Arian's movie files:

<MovieArtInfo>
<Type>ART_DEF_MOVIE_BRANDENBURG_GATE</Type>
<Path>Art/Movies/Wonders/Brandenburg.bik</Path>
</MovieArtInfo>
<MovieArtInfo>
<Type>ART_DEF_MOVIE_TRAFALGAR_SQUARE</Type>
<Path>Art/Movies/Wonders/TrafalgarSquare.bik</Path>
</MovieArtInfo>

So, I think I have my code right, but in-game, when you construct the wonder, all I get is a blank blue screen where the picture/movie should be (with an okay button). The game is stable and all, it's just a blank screen like there is no movie or picture. Am I using the BIK file correctly or not? Is there something wrong with the BIK file or my XML code? What do I need to do?

I can easily get a static DDS picture to show-up in game if I replace the path with the DDS path, but I can't get the movie to play when I point the path to the BIK file (and yes, the path is right... the files are all in the same folder).

@Wolfshanze

The movies work fine for me. I use Graves History in the Making mod and no problem. Also no problem with low quality graphics setting. I assume you can play and see the movies.

This might be a silly question cause I'm sure you're a good modder but did you point to the movie-file in the buildinginfo-xml??

My code in CIV4ArtDefines_Movie.xml:

<MovieArtInfo>
<Type>ART_DEF_MOVIE_TRAFALGAR_SQUARE</Type>
<Path>Art/Movies/Wonders/TrafalgarSquare.bik</Path>
<KFM>None</KFM>
</MovieArtInfo>

This is the code in CIV4BuildingInfos.xml:

<MovieDefineTag>ART_DEF_MOVIE_TRAFALGAR_SQUARE</MovieDefineTag>

I'll try your mod to see what happens...

Anybody else got this problem??

I only have the Semperoper in the game so far, but it works for me without trouble.

Thanks for checking Refar.

@wolfshanze:

I checked with your mod and no problems.

This might sound silly but I have an actual screenshot of Brandenburg but don't know to display it in this post ??? :confused:

Here's the dl:

please put your files on a different file host than megaupload. geeeez that has got to be the worst file host I've ever encountered. Try mediafire.com, its literally 10x better.

please put your files on a different file host than megaupload. geeeez that has got to be the worst file host I've ever encountered. Try mediafire.com, its literally 10x better.

I've never had any problems with MegaUpload so I intend to stick with them. It took me quite some to upload the files and I'm not gonna do it all over again on another host. Sorry...

No dice... the XML is up-tight, I'm sure... Both in BuildingInfos.xml and in Defines_Movie.xml... yet, this is all I get:

http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k3/Wolfshanze/Games/Trafalgar.jpg

http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k3/Wolfshanze/Games/Branden.jpg

A blank screen... if I change the path back to one of the DDS files in the same directory, I get the right screen, but the BIK files just don't work. At least not for me... this sucks.

Okay... nevermind... I solved the problem, but it was weird...

They didn't like being FPK'd in with the rest of the art... they worked fine if they were in a seperate folder, but if I FPK'd them, they didn't work.

I have them working fine now though, so thanks!

Megaupload really sucks. it has bandwith limits for different countries. And for poland the info about waiting for the limit apeears all the time. Besides you needs to wait for dl link on megaupload.

Mediafire is very good. please use it in the future

Anyone experiencing problems with Megaupload??
I didn't have problems per-say, but it is really annoying (the forced wait time, typing in of codes, and limited servers)

You might want to give Filefront (http://www.filefront.com/) a try... it's free, has unlimited upload space and doesn't force people to wait to download something.

:dunno:

Mediafire doesn't seem to work for me. :(

Can't upload files :dunno:
It's stops after 1% :confused:

You might want to give Filefront (http://www.filefront.com/) a try... it's free, has unlimited upload space and doesn't force people to wait to download something.I agree, I recently started using it and have been very happy. :goodjob:

My experience with FileFront is that at some point, your file will just magically disappear into the ether. I've never had ths problem with AtomicGamer, although I'm not wild about the wait times...

Cheers,

My experience with FileFront is that at some point, your file will just magically disappear into the ether.
Filefront routinely deletes files that aren't being used... they send you a notification via e-mail if any of your files are being scheduled for deletion (which you simply tell them not to do).

If you don't give file-front your proper e-mail address, or you don't follow up on your e-mails... then yes, they'll disappear... that seems to be the case with you.

I've never once had a file disappear from file front in the long time I've used them.

OK folks

I managed to upload a package of my first 17 movies to FileFront.

Get it here:

http://files.filefront.com/WondermoviesPack1rar/;10522614;/fileinfo.html

This is in the pack:

Bourla Theatre, Bolshoi Drama Theatre, Semperoper Theatre, Old Opera
Alamo, Brandenburg, Burj Al-Arab, CN Tower, Golgotha, Grijalva
Kharbas, Machu Picchu, Oktoberfest, Palacio Da Pena,
Leaning Tower of Pisa, Trafalgar Square, Wembley Stadium

I'll put the link in the first post. Might be handy.

:wow: Wow you are on the roll :crazyeye:

Very great work on those movies for the national wonders. I did really missed them in the game.

Yeah... I'm so happy to have the Brandenburg Gate and Trafalgar Square movies now... turns-out I never missed them though, stupid computer AI built them both before I could, in my first game with the new wonders!

I put together 2 packs that I had made in the WoC. Some of the work was trimmed down from some people's work before. I did many myself anyway so when you see what is in the pack the movies are not the same as the ones made before and used by many mods. I tried to stay small with them as to take as little space as possible.

Very nice, Johny.
Some of them I've seen before. The Terracotta-movie is very nice but it's a shame it's so small :(

Johny said:

This is very true! In case of movies: "The bigger the better (looking)". I like quality over size but it sure is a consideration.

I suppose the modmakers could add a separate moviepack to their mods to keep their mods small. The movies could be an "add-on" to their mod.
AFAIK if you define a movie (in the art/buildinginfo.xml) and it isn't there, the movie won't show (that's trivial) and game only displays a message that a wonder has been built.

Military Academy

The Military Academy is quite different (maybe a bit corny) but it was fun to make :rotfl:

Well I am still wondering what it does in game with the size really of the movies. I mean like when it is 800x600 for example does it scale it down on the movie screen? I tried to make all of the movies about the same length as well. Anyway some of the ones I would say to look at that are not cut down from others are the Art of War, Amphitheater, and Longevity for example besides Terra Cotta.

But your movies look really good. Thank you very much.

SY is short but cool. Proves that sice does not matter.

wow, your putting these out faster than they can be used. Nice work. :thumbsup:

Great movies. :) How about a Area51-Movie?

I updated the leonardo movie, and changed the paks around a little to fit under the 10 mb limit. Took leonardo from youtube.

Anyway I am not concerned with the actual file size. I am just using 320x240 for size on the movie screen because I think if bigger it sticks out compared to the others, and I have all of the movies approximately 20 seconds long.Maybe I am movie standard grouch I don't know. Just like to have everything about the same in game.

Really nice work Arian on the movies keep it up.

Firaxis movies are 720x486 (width x height) and 30 frames/sec.

Mine are 640x480 and only 25 frames/sec.

In my opinion 320x240 is way too small!

Well then you are making more sense than me. I thought they were not scaling. I may redo the ones I did in the future then.

Good to see those Civ 2 wonder movies converted to biks.. are you going to convert the rest of them as well? I was going to convert them too since my mod has most of those wonders but hadn't yet figure out how to cut scenes of wonder effects from the end of Civ 2 movies to make them more suitable for BtS (noob on video editing here)... you just saved lot of my time with the release of those movies :D

Windows movie maker is the easiest free way to cut the end off. The sounds can be faded out on the end as well. Then bink the wmv created.

This one took me a lot of time and trouble to make but in the end it was worth the effort. I really hope to see this one in some mod :)

Ok here is large terra cotta army movie just like the one I made before but now 640x480.

http://worldofciv.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/wocmodules/Library/Large%20Movies/terracotta.bik

Okay, maybe I'm raising a red flag here for nothing, and I thought I was good with XML code... but now I'm beginning to wonder...

I can't get a single National Wonder movie to show up in-game... not the same problem as before (I didn't FPK them and I'm NOT getting a blank blue screen)... what's happening... is NOTHING AT ALL!

I linked the BIK files in both the CIV4BuildingInfos.xml and CIV4ArtDefines_Movie.xml... what do I get? Nothing at all... build a national wonder and it's the same as it always is... "You have built National-Wonder-X... what would you like to build now"... no movie, no movie screen box... it just builds like any other unit and asks you what you want to build next.

Did I miss a flag or command in XML? I tried multiple National Wonders... not a one of them came-up with a movie when it was built.

I tried MULTIPLE National Wonders... not a one came up as a movie... I did the following code below for the National Park as an example... I did all the national wonders in the same format, changing the lines below in the two files... did I miss something I should have done? Has anyone else gotten a national wonder movie in-game?


My code in CIV4ArtDefines_Movie.xml:

<MovieArtInfo>
<Type>ART_DEF_MOVIE_NATIONAL_PARK</Type>
<Path>Art/Movies/Wonders/NationalPark.bik</Path>
<KFM>None</KFM>
</MovieArtInfo>

This is the code in CIV4BuildingInfos.xml:

<MovieDefineTag>ART_DEF_MOVIE_NATIONAL_PARK</MovieDefineTag>

Anybody else got this problem??

Don't panic, Wolf :)

I've gone through this also and I found the solution in GIR's post about the Forbidden Palace. That national wonder triggered a movie while others did not. Well, the trick is in the Python!!

Look in the CvEventManager.py for this entry:

def onBuildingBuilt(self, argsList):

If yours looks like this:

def onBuildingBuilt(self, argsList):
'Building Completed'
pCity, iBuildingType = argsList
game = gc.getGame()
if ((not gc.getGame().isNetworkMultiPlayer()) and (pCity.getOwner() == gc.getGame().getActivePlayer()) and isWorldWonderClass(gc.getBuildingInfo(iBuildingTyp e).getBuildingClassType())):
# If this is a wonder...
popupInfo = CyPopupInfo()
popupInfo.setButtonPopupType(ButtonPopupTypes.BUTT ONPOPUP_PYTHON_SCREEN)
popupInfo.setData1(iBuildingType)
popupInfo.setData2(pCity.getID())
popupInfo.setData3(0)
popupInfo.setText(u"showWonderMovie")
popupInfo.addPopup(pCity.getOwner())

then add the following lines for each national wonder movie you want to display:

if ( iBuildingType==gc.getInfoTypeForString("BUILDING_NATIONAL_WONDER") ):
popupInfo = CyPopupInfo()
popupInfo.setButtonPopupType(ButtonPopupTypes.BUTT ONPOPUP_PYTHON_SCREEN)
popupInfo.setData1(iBuildingType)
popupInfo.setData2(pCity.getID())
popupInfo.setData3(0)
popupInfo.setText(u"showWonderMovie")
popupInfo.addPopup(pCity.getOwner())

This works fine for me. Good luck!

I think possibly some Python code is required to work. Someone (forgot the name, sorry) did a Forbidden Palace wonder movie that required Python code in order to view the movie. Or it could possibly be an easy change in the SDK...

Okay thanks... but now I'm confused... I thought I only need modify the CvEventManger.py, but you enclosed four differant python files (I realize one or more are custom)...

They all exist in my mod and it works just fine. Is your CvCustomEventManager the same as mine?

Okay... I got it figured out (thanks to your files you posted)... the problem was as simple as a couple of tabs... the start to some of my lines weren't tabbed properly.

Definitely not a problem... I would LOVE to get some sort of reward for circumnavigating the globe... I was thinking of using the "Magellan's Voyage" movie, but if you have something better in-mind, I'm all for it.

@Wolf
I am glad you solved the problem. It would be a shame to let go all this work on those movies go to waste :D

@Johny
Art of War and Terracotta look MUCH better!!

I'll replace the ones with the new ones. Thanks. :)

Speaking of the Forbidden Palace... if I'm not mistaken, that's the only default National Wonder not in your default National Wonder movie pack!?!?!

Where's the Forbidden Palace Movie?

Great job! Were that the last ones?

I wonder what you think of Crusades, MarcoPolo and Newton? I suppose we can make better ones for them, don't you agree?

Well I think they all could be look better if redone. Especially Hoover Dam one scene is really blurry if it will ever be used. These are all of the rest that are not in the game already except the Globe Theater. The Globe Theater looked really bad blown up so I skipped it.

So ya they could look much better. I would like to get them all in one place as well so easy for people to find.

SDI is a real good movie and the music is a good choice. It's a little bit long, but it's still all right, but I wouldn't make any longer movies.

Area51 is more a secret weapon facility in my game than an alien research center, adding a bonus in science output and giving experience to new units, to the movie doesn't fitt completly. However it is still well done, with very creepy music. :)

The first SDI-movie I made was about 2m40sec (160 secs)!!
Way to long so I decided to shrink it down to 62 secs.

I'll try to keep them between 30 - 60 secs.

Crystal Palace and Air Defence are probably next.
The Apollo Program movie has been uploaded by Johny. Not necesserary to make one.

Do you have a request for a movie?

Could we get one for the KGB? There's one floating around in some mods (under the name Lubjanka) but it's not very good quality and has lots of artifacts.
I'd also like to see one for Petra, Machu Picchu, the Canadian Oil Sands and one to represent the Canada Civ mod's Hockey Night.

Machu Picchu is already done. It's in the DL-DB.

I will make a movie for KGB and Petra, it's just gonna take some time.

Give me some info/suggestions on the Canadian Oil Sands and the Canada Hockey Night so I can think of some things to put in those movies.
Hockey = Ice Hockey isn't it?

Lol, I just saw that Machu Picchu mod. I was hoping to edit my post before someone noticed. :D
For the Oil Sands, images that show the giant mining operation, the huge trucks used to haul the sand (largest in the world), and the process of removing the oil from the sand would be good. Perhaps even showing the final product at the end.
And yes, Hockey = ice hockey. I wasn't aware that there were other forms of it. :confused:
As for the video itself, I really don't have much to help you with. Just try to keep it nation neutral. I renamed the wonder from Hockey Night in Canada to just Hockey Night to keep it in line with all the other wonders in the game that dropped national and location specific descriptors in their name, i.e. The Library of Alexandria was named The Great Library, the Great Wall of China was is just called the Great Wall, etc.

Okay. I see what you mean. I'm gonna make the movies, probably next week.

BTW: People also play hockey on grass :p

yep, i know and the Dutch play better hockey then football. "Fatima ;)"

I would like to see a wonder movie for the Globen. (icehockey stadium of Sweden)

Mediafire doesn't seem to work for me. :(

Can't upload files :dunno:
It's stops after 1% :confused:
Some antiviruses, like Kaspersky Antivirus, block uploading of large files. It could also be that you don't have the latest version of Java installed. There is also a program that they released for uploading, called the MFUploader. There's a tutorial for using it here.

http://www.sendspace.com/ is another site you might want to look at.
As a suggestion, you could use video from the movies Red Planet and Mission to Mars for the Mission to Mars video. You could also use video from Apocalypto for the Sacrificial Pyramid.
I would also like to request a video for the Manhattan Project (if there isn't one already).

Can you explain the difference between the two versions please? I'm curious to know which one might fit my own tastes without having to go through the motions if a brief summary would suffice.

Well, it would be easiest, if you have a look at both with RAD Tool, because it is difficult to describe both. Well, I will try... Arians movie shows mostly statues and monumals of great heroes. But I think a heroic epic is more about a story, which is narrated, than about monuments. I tried to display this with the pictures I did choose, and also I picked different music. I think it is a matter of taste, which one you prefer.

Well, it would be easiest, if you have a look at both with RAD Tool
Oh... so that's how you do it without going in-game...

Well... not to offend either (they're both good and better then what I can do), after having looked at both, I guess I'm screwed... I prefer Arian's slides/pics, and Tourist's music... oh well...

Well, I was asking for the Empire State Building not the WTC. But I know you're busy, I completely understand. Thanks for all your hard work.

I think each wonder can be interpreted in different ways. It depends on how a modmaker uses it in his mod. It might happen then that the movie doesn't really fit.

IMO, yours is better.

Well, it would be easiest, if you have a look at both with RAD Tool, because it is difficult to describe both. Well, I will try... Arians movie shows mostly statues and monumals of great heroes. But I think a heroic epic is more about a story, which is narrated, than about monuments. I tried to display this with the pictures I did choose, and also I picked different music. I think it is a matter of taste, which one you prefer.
Arian & JustATourist... thank both of you for the fine work you're doing here.

Like JustATourist says, there's different interpretations of things, and to each their own... both of you are doing great work, and since JustATourist pointed-out the RAD Tool... wow... that's a pretty good tool... real easy for a total noob like me to figure out some things... so I played around a bit and I modified a couple of Wonders more to my liking... I'll upload the results here in case anyone prefers them.

Two Wonders I wanted to change the music on... both of these wonders are based on Arian's movies for the same wonders... I just changed the music on both, since (in my opinion), Arian used a kind of "modern-tecno" music-track, and I thought it a bit distracting to these older-age wonders. I really liked the movies Arian made, just wanted a more "age-specific" music to go with them, so here they are:

Brandenburg Gate Wonder: using Arian's movie set to Wagner's Lohengrin prelude
Heroic Epic Wonder: using Arian's movie set to JustATourist's more classical music for this wonder

Arian... did you ever find out if/how you can make a movie play for circumnavigating the globe... I find that to be a huge event (and it takes some work to be the first too)... it's always a huge accomplishment to be the first, and it's kinda sad you don't get anything more then a little text message saying you did it. Would be nice to get a nice movie... can a movie be linked to that event?

Making such a movie is no problem but I have no clue if it's possible to display it in-game. That's why I put this question in the "Zebra"-thread...

Yeah, I know the movie isn't the problem, tying it to the event is... just wondering if you heard anything in PMs or just figured it out.

Nothing so far...

Yea, if you can't find any good motion videos, go for good panned still image. I'm not complaining, just suggesting. I've enjoyed all your work so far.

I've decided to add this hockey event in my mod as "Grand Icehockey Event" and attach it to the Biodome, like Hitmovies to Hollywood.

Have you tried interspacing live footage with the still pictures? For example, you could move between short clips of games being played in the Globen with pictures that highlight its structural uniqueness. It would help break things up from all the pan and scan pictures without requiring you to get a whole lot of actual motion video.

Have you tried interspacing live footage with the still pictures?

I did on several occasions. For example the Air Defense Network and the SDI.

As I said before it is difficult to find good quality footage. Movies might be blurry (like Hockey Night) or too small. And it's quite time consuming to make this kind of movies.

Tsukiji is very low-res; it would be cool if someone made a movie that had the same resolution as all the rest. Likewise, all movies in the pack by Johny Smith are also low-res; we're using all those for now, but it would be great to have some bigger ones.

Gas plant movie is quite good, but it is probably too generic.

And despite the fact that Mausoleum came with Warlords, I think it has no movie associated with it. The only wonder movies that came with Warlords are for the Temple of Artemis, the Great Wall and the University of Sankore.

The Mausoleum came with BTS.

Might do the fishy market, but probably only panning pics...

then add the following lines for each national wonder movie you want to display:

popupInfo = CyPopupInfo()
popupInfo.setButtonPopupType(ButtonPopupTypes.BUTT ONPOPUP_PYTHON_SCREEN)

This works fine for me. Good luck!

Thanks to GIR for the code.

I have edited my CivEventManager.Py file to include the code posted here for each building In your National wonders pack, along with the XML changes to CIV4ArtDefines_Movie.xml and Civ4BuildingInfos.xml as described by wolfshanze:


My code in CIV4ArtDefines_Movie.xml:

<MovieArtInfo>
<Type>ART_DEF_MOVIE_NATIONAL_PARK</Type>
<Path>Art/Movies/Wonders/NationalPark.bik</Path>
<KFM>None</KFM>
</MovieArtInfo>

This is the code in CIV4BuildingInfos.xml:

<MovieDefineTag>ART_DEF_MOVIE_NATIONAL_PARK</MovieDefineTag>


but I am still not seing any national wonder movies when the buildings are built. Is there something else I must do?

It should work or there might be something wrong with the indentation of your Python-code.
You can use a Python-editor to check your code.

The indentation is correct, no errors are returned. The files modified are in the program files\2k games\firaxis\civ4\bts\assests\python & ...\assests\xml folders, respectivley. I did this correct, or should I add these files to custom assets of ..\my games\bts ?

My files are in the mod-folder: assets\python

Can you see the buildings in the civilopedia?

Yes, I see them in the pedia, but I'm only using the wonder movies for existing national wonders (west point, wall street, etc). I edited the original code, because I wanted to not have to load a mod to use them. Should I set it up as a mod to get it to function?

I don't think it's necessary to set it up as a mod.

If you did as you said the movies should show. A few pages back in this thread I've uploaded my Python-files. Check them out.

Actualy, I copied the code from your files (deleting the code for the buildings I do not use). I guess I'll just have to play around with things a little and see what happens.

I'm sorry I can't help you any further. The code works for me (BTS 3.13 btw). I hope you figure it out.

Thanks. I am using 3.17, maybe something has changed. I'll dig a little deeper . . .

That might be it...

Something else strange I just noticed, When A tech is researched, no sound clip is played (and the info screen does not pop up either!) So I'm guessing something screwy is going on in the CvEventManager.py; since neither of the two xml files have anything to do with tech, but there is a call to CvTechChooser in the the python (even though nothing was changed) . . . very odd . . .

It smells like a python error. On several occasions I had something similar and the whole GUI was gone!! :eek:

Why don't you upload your event.py here so I might check it?

here! (http://www.filecrunch.com/fileDownload.php?sub=6f5c78b3071f1b33365da12a37fc1 00c&fileId=155815)

Can't download it:

This file is a private File. So you don't have rights to download this file.

Just attach it to your post.

sorry about that. Grr I feel so foolish. How do I attach it to a post . . .?

Zip/RAR your file first, then you can attach it to your post (zip/rar extension required!)

It's uploaded (I think)

...got it!

I'm trying to load your in the IDLE-Python file editor but there seem to be something wrong with this file. It won't load properly :confused:

wtf??? Okay, let me check the rar file, maybe it was corrupted. Sorry for all the trouble . . .

Maybe I've fixed it. Try this file (back up your original file!!)

Plz let me know if it works now!

Okay, sorry again. Try this one (the one with [mod]).

Ok, well, It's half working! I get a blank blue screen where the movie should be, but that's more than I ever got before. I guess the problem now lies in the XML. What did you change in python? (maybe there is a similar problem with my xml which i can fix)

Your mod-file seems allright in the edtor. It runs smoothly, no errors whatsoever :)

You should not PAK your movies. Wolfshanze did that and got that blue screen! I guess CIV can't find the movie. Check your XML again.

Your event.py did contain hidden/invisible strange characters. Somehow I displayed them and did a simple find and replace.

I can't let Arian have all the fun:

:goodjob: I can see you put in a lot of time and effort to make these movies :hatsoff:

I'll tag the Hanseatic as done on the front page and give you all the credit! One little thing: I couldn't read the text. It went too fast and maybe choose a different color with more contrast. You might also want to fade out the music.


But alas who am I to criticize your work ;).

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by PAK, this is a sample of the XML in CIV4Artdefines_movie:

<MovieArtInfo>
<Type>ART_DEF_MOVIE_ACADEMY</Type>
<Path>Art/Movies/Wonders/Academy.bik</Path>
<KFM>None</KFM>
</MovieArtInfo>

And the hidden chars you were talking about in the first python file or the second i posted? Both? I still quite dont understand, it may have been due to the program i used to edit them, I'm now using EditRocket.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by PAK

Modders use PAK-build to pack the art-files so their mods load faster. The movies however should not be packed and be placed in assets/art/movies/wonders.

Your CIV4artdefinesmovie.XML seems alright.

Make sure in CIV4BuildingInfos.xml to tag the movie:

<MovieDefineTag>ART_DEF_MOVIE_ACADEMY</MovieDefineTag>

which you already did I believe.

You should be in business by now!

But alas who am I to criticize your work ;).

Actually I have no problem to take critique from you. You are quite good with doing movies.

Fade music out is a good thing, I'd like to do it, but the program I use doesn't give me this option. Normally I do cutting with Nero Visions. So if you have any advice how to create a fade out without an extra hour of work, don't hold back. :)


Edit: @comatosedragon: You did put the movies in the asset folder, not into the custon asset folder?

Try to load your movie in Windows Movie Maker. This program lets you easily fade in/out sound (and pictures/movies).

Edit: @comatosedragon: You did put the movies in the asset folder, not into the custon asset folder?

Yes, they are in
Assests/art/movies/wonders

Am making a final check of the xml now, and then another test . . .

I did some changes to the Hanseatic League Movie, the text should be better readable now. It was really well readable before I binked it, so I can't do much more about it. The Download is at the same place (http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=9859).

Unfortunally Windows Movie Maker created way to many artifacts at the video, so still no music fade out... Perhaps I should look for better software.

Arian, just an idea: Have you thought about creating an index in alphabetical order with direct links at your first post? I am getting the feeling this thread is getting a little bit confusing because of its length. I think there were links to some more movie downloads, which could be overlooked quite easy.
