I would like to make cut-scene.
However I don't know how to use camera.

http://goldeneyevault.com/viewfile.php?id=271
I set the same value as Investigation, then camera worked.



00 F5


I changed the value.
00 F0


There may be unknown camera objects.

[SubDrag]

Unfortunately, we never really figured out how to do it. You can only use ones from that particular level, and not change anything, and it might not even work due to different objects. It seems to be some animation type thing.

[Jonaeru]

I see.
Thank you for replay.

There is one more one I've found, it's for the beta and still curious, level stage id 4E (slot 26).

It has prerecorded fx 045D, 0464, 0461, 046C

Another note, that level would've had a moon, and stars, we have found beta references of stage id 4E using both.

I have been unable to get it working (well what level do I pick?), and all the pads are FFFF (assigned during prerecorded fx?).

[Jonaeru]

I learned that I can edit Prerecorded Fx in "Animation Editor" by export/import, but I could not export well.
Wavefront GEObj Format, .obj file is comment out all.
FBX Format, error is displayed, "Invalid objtoan8 exe".

Please tell me how to export the file.

[SubDrag]

I hope you have success editing them! It would be fun to see.
So obj is really just a temporary format, FBX is the only one that really has the valid animation.

First install this (unzip):
http://goldeneyevault.com/viewfile.php?id=255

Then, in Tools->Preferences in editor point the obj2an8 location to the executable in Release folder called objtoan8 or something.

OK, now export as FBX. I have only tested it in XSI modeler though; it my work in any tool that can export/import fbx such as 3ds max or maya, but I do not know. Export the obj of level you want to do it in in editor, then import the level you want to see the prerecorded fx in XSI. Now, import the FBX of the animation. It should add something called Camera, that you can view through, and edit the keyframes. When you are done, just export the Camera as FBX, import to editor...and if all goes well, it will be a new prerecorded Fx you can trigger in animation.

let me know if any questions. Also, there are two "special" keyframe items, I think FBX only supports aspect ratio, but the other one color, I couldn't find in FBX format. I think maybe supported manually in editor, but maybe not.

[Wreck]

I'm super interested in this, so any more information we can find out about how it works would be great. It'd be really fun for custom Perfect Dark missions, and - of course - a big help for GoldenEye X. If you learn anything new or get something to work, definitely let us know.

Thank you! I could export fbx file! I needed "fbx20131_fbxsdk_vs2010_win.exe".

I will try to edit prerecorded fx.

[Jonaeru]

I installed "Autodesk 3ds Max 2015 Trial".
I could import FBX file. (00F5 Investigation Prerecorded Fx Intro)
After, without editing anything, I exported the file of "FBX 2013 File" format, and imported it to PD Editor.
However, XYZ coordinate is deviated. It is difficult to adjust the coordinates.

I edited obj file with a text editor and imported it to PD Editor. It was reflected in the Visual Editor, but did not reflect in the ROM.

[Wreck]

I think we should start with the really simple level cutscenes, such as those from Mr. Blonde's Revenge. The intro has only two camera angles; one showing Mr. Blonde walking in through the foyer doors, and a second which goes into the back of his head, transitioning into normal gameplay. The outro for the mission is also just one or two camera angles, showing the Skedar ship flying off into the night sky. The Duel should also be very basic. It's likely a single static camera angle.

Hmm, unfortunately I only have access to Autodesk XSI Softimage (I use 2013). Is there a trial of that available? I was able to export to fbx, import into XSI, export whole thing to fbx from XSI, and import into editor from fbx, and then write ROM. And the contents were basically the same (minus rounding) after exporting before and after to .obj. I also reopened the written ROM and it had new values.

Also for consistency, I used 00CF Chicago, can you try that too? Perhaps investigation has something interesting I will need to troubleshoot after. Can you try doing that, (skip importing the level for now before testing again after that, may need delete level before export)?

After you imported the manual .obj, did you click "Write ROM"?

Can you provide your FBX file that it exported if that doesn't work?

[Jonaeru]

I installed "Autodesk Softimage 2015 Trial".
I selected "File > Croswolk > Import FBX" (I checked Frame Rate and Fill Timeline of Options). Is this correct?
I don't know how to export of "DefaultCamera".

SubDrag wrote:

Yes, I clicked "Write ROM" after imported .obj file. It may not work because I chenged only value of keyframerotation?

[SubDrag]

When you imported the FBX it should add a camera to scene. I don't think need do crosswalk, file import should be fine, but shouldn't matter. I have 2013 but I'll try and post steps when I get home later.

[SubDrag]

1) Export level as obj from Room Positions mode
2) Convert textures using irfanview to be 24-bit or whatever XSI 2015 supports
3) Import level from obj
4) Export Fbx of animation
5) Import Fbx of animation (File->Import FBX, default options)

http://gyazo.com/e75ee489485438414416db1f6e98d582
6) To view camera, in top left, click the Camera, then switch animation->DefaultCamera
http://gyazo.com/c0ed99b73d063420799a13e3411a7b06

7) Edit animation keyframes in animation mode (or for now just do nothing)
http://gyazo.com/58a34b21acea41acb80439698f8b8acd

Delete rooms, export as FBX (default options), 8 key brings up explorer window there
http://gyazo.com/be9ceb010cfa850773bf3ce88cdbb0d2

9) Import to editor.
