Hi guys,

I have always the problem, that the cinematics on patch 1.3b don't seem to work. How can I solve this poblem???

Hint: I have tried window mode and altered the glide settings. But I only can hear the sound but there isn't a picture. Could anybody help?? :?:

as far as I know the HighRes Plugin doesnt support the videos, so you will have to switch to low res if you want to see the videos.

Hey wouldn't it be nice if someone could make the vids/cinem compatibel to the high res patch in the future ^^?

That honestly depends on the will of the third party that made the plug in in the first place. Since it is not coded by anyone in this forum I'm honestly not making any guarantees such work will actually get done.

That sounds pellucid. But maybe we could try it with a Hex Editor for instance.
But... that wouldn't be so legal I guess ;3.

Take this from someone who has actually messed around with a hex editor some... Unless you REALLY know what you are doing you are more likely to break stuff with errors, have a chance to cause unintended bugs, and practically no chance of actually doing what you originally intended.

Even if you knew what the binary for assembly instructions looked like it would be one daunting task since hex editors won't mark the boundary of each instruction. The plug in's coding is not even remotely documented on Phroezen Keep probably due to be being recently made. Even the people familiar with using hex editors here would probably have a hard time figuring out what's going on with the plugin via a hex editor. It would be so time consuming to understand the entire dll with a hex editor that a person would probably find it quicker (and hellava lot easier) to code their own high res plug in.

What shell I reply? You are totally right!! The expenditure would be considerably less, if we create our own high ress dll. but I think the most of you don't need the videos so much urgent. It's unnecessary an therefore would nobody made such an effort to create that dll. But my friend(s) and I are storyplayer, so that its important for us to have these less important things ingame. Thats why I decieded to propose it :D
