The cutscenes.tbl is a file for defining the actual video clips (.mve or their .ogg (recommended) equivalents) and their descriptions displeyed in the cutscenes section of the tech room.

This table is one of the Modular Tables and can be extended with xxx-csn.tbm

Format

  • Table consists of several entries used to define the cutscene videos displayed in the tech room.


$Filename:

  • Used to define the actual name of the video shown in the particular slot.
    • Syntax: String.ogg or String.mve, filename.extension
    • Example: intro.mve


+nocreate

FS2 Open, 23.0:
  • Allows editing of the cutscene entry without creating a new entry


$Name:

  • Defines the name of the cutscene
    • Syntax: String, name
FS2 Open, 23.0:
  • This field is now optional, defaults to $Filename


$Description:

  • Used to define the description of the particular table entry
  • Value is used for defining the translations via the tstrings.tbl
  • Is always followed immediately with $end_multi_text
    • Syntax: XSTR("String", Integer), descriptive text, integer refers to translations
    • Example: XSTR("Admiral Petrarch addresses the crew of the Aquitaine, relating news of the GTVA's success.", 2611)
FS2 Open, 23.0:
  • This field is now optional


$cd:

  • Defines the disk from which the cutscene could be found
    • Syntax: Integer
FS2 Open, 3.7.2:
  • This field is now optional


$Always Viewable:

FS2 Open, 3.7.4:
  • Sets the cutscene to always be available in the cutscene room without needing to be viewed during the campaign.
    • Syntax: Boolean


$Never Viewable:

FS2 Open, 19.0:
  • Sets the cutscene to never be available in the cutscene room, even if it is viewed during the campaign.
    • Syntax: Boolean


Sample and usage of cutscenes in campaigns

  • Here are instructions how to configure the mission to make the pre-rendered cutscene play at the correct point in the campaign.
  • Full retail table:
; Cutscene.tbl 
; Will contain data for :
; 1.) cutscene names
; 2.) cutscene descriptions
; 3.) cutscene location on CD
;
; Do not change the ordering of the sections in this table. Also do not add items to the list
