Video background

[Hicks-MofG]

I'm wanting to set one of the looping vid (abyss from the main site) from the main sit as my background for the menus. I haven't seen anything or script line in the config file to do that. If somebody's got a second to fill me in on how to do it that would be great. I may have jut over looked it.

Well you can always down load the soulcaliber theme.. I believe it has animated backrounds and see how it works..

Ive never done it or I would give exact instructions...

To use a looping background, simply put the videos in your theme folder. It's best just to have a startbak.avi and a bak.avi. If you a video loop, rename it to the above two names. It should be in the same folder as bak.png and startbak.png.

Finally, there's a setting in gameex config where you select show background images or something like that. Mess around with it.
