Movies in message boxes?

Post by BiteNibbleChomp »

Just wondering, is it possible to add a movies file to a message box?

Example:

"The Bismarck has been sunk!

[.......................]
[.......................]
[.....Movie of........]
[.....Sinking of......]
[......Bismarck......]
[.......................]
[.......................] "

The only way I found to include videos was to make a link to a video. But the video is not windowed in the message box.
It could be better, you try to make a animated gif from the video. that works.

It would be helpful to know how this was done - a picture would still do fine

Code: Select all

IDS_MESSAGE4	<p>Oppeln ist gefallen, die Stadt liegt in Schutt und Asche!</p><p>Für den entscheidenden Sieg müssen Sie die Stadt zurückerobern!</p><p></p><center><img src="DMP\Oppeln.png"/></center>
from the pzloc file from Ostfront.
The pic is in the DMP-Folder under UI.
