If you're talking about freely distributing repackaged art and map work made by 3D Realms, there could be legal problems.

There's been tons of TCs that edit tiles other than 014 and 015 so I don't think 3DR really cares about that.

Anyways, I think it just involves putting the episode in user.con and editing the death code for all the bosses so the game doesn't end when you kill them.

That's correct, but I don't know how you could get a movie to play after each boss kill.

Well he wants the cutscenes to play and instead of going back to the main menu it starts E2L1.

IceColdDuke · 08-27-2007, 10:14 AM

use the source code, make it so it doesn't go back to the main menu but continues on....and its legal

I like the episode structure. It's good because you can make each episode with a theme in mind...

Hendricks266 · 08-27-2007, 05:28 PM

It would be possible if there was some far-out EDuke32 command like this:

Code:

startcutscene CINEOV2.ANM

Other than that, the episode 1 cutscene will not work completely either, because it uses a special hardcoded palette. Unless there was something like this:

Code:

gamepal 5
/*
0 - standard palette
1 - underwater tint
2 - slime tint
3 - title screen & logos palette
4 - 3D Realms screen palette
5 - episode 1 ending palette
*/

...and it would affect everything on the screen.
