nope not yet
*mate make sure you edited the files very carefully because my hard drive letter is diffrent! it says E: it may suppose to be C: to you so be carefull and the resolutions too .
battle_resolution = 1024 768

campaign_32_bit = 1

campaign_resolution = 1024 768

*then start the game and play a custom battle after you win the battle save the battle with the specific name.
*close the game and come to the edited file and place a saved file name there.

*then open a ss game thre you may find that you need to edit some this section:
[replay]

play = 1

file = E:\Program Files (x86)\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\Stainless_Steel_Mod\replays\Mayan.rpy
* then save the file and click on the Cin_ed.bat file it will load the replay and you have to move your "moves" by the mouse and the w,a,s,d keys is you want you can move by the numkeys
*there you can take the shots by clicking the print scren button and then paste in the ART program

EDIT: Okay results...

1. Edited the files so E is now C and resolutions are same as i am playing... Also i edited few things like i have subtitles so i changed it to [1] and i have building details low so wrote there low

2. I played custom battle with Tempelar knights against egypt in arsuf (i won) and then i saved the battle replay wth name "test"...

3. Edited Cine edit files so there is now reading test.rpy at end...

4. I clicked the dos file and then the dos window flashes but nothing happens!

This is step by step everything i did and it is not working? Did I do something wrong ?

Btw i deleted that (x86) thing to from end of program file but it didn't have positive effects i put it back there

[Okin]

got the same problem here! (using 4.1)

ahhh, now i got it!!!(got threwrong filename.rpy)

guyz
replay section should be like this
-------------------------------------
[replay]

play = 1

file = C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\Stainless_Steel_Mod\replays\test.rpy
---------------------------------------------

then the feature section should be like this
[features]

editor = true

mod = C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\Stainless_Steel_Mod
--------------------------------------------------
see the red sections !!

[Chola_Kingdom]

medusa: Yes!

The movie editor is very difficult to handle, but I`m slowly getting into it!

mate download the cin_ed files again from this thread because i updated them today that will give you easy access i always save my rply in word "Mayan" if you like it you can choose your favorite history faction name

Greetings,

First off, thanks for the tutorial, Chola_Kingdom. Secondly, I have a few questions. Forgive me if they were posted before, but I've searched and cannot find the answer I seek. If anyone has info on any of these topics, I would greatly appreciate any and all help in this matter.

1) How do I get the timer and FPS clocker off of the upper left hand corner of the cin-ed screen?

2)I saw in Caliban's tutorial that there should be two screens when one pulls up the cin-ed. One screen is the actual replay and the other should be the editor(?), you know with the camera paths and all the other stuff. I do not have that when I load the replay through cin-ed. I would really like to make some camera paths.

3)When I get this operating properly, is it best to use FRAPS, or render.bat?

Thank you in advance to any and all help.

1) there are no solution yet even by the CA's so you have to use photoshop to hide it.
2) thre should be small size of and screen should be load with some buttons to pause rewind forward thre you can also do a camera path[when you click the cin-ed.bat it should load 3 screens including the DOS, and Replay file, and the Small screen which is for FF/RW/P/S], and the normal replay screen.
3)both are render file because it gives perfect quality. but frabs still gives good too.

Hey, thanks a lot for your response. All right, I am just worried about the #2 question. I only have one screen when I start up the cin-ed.bat. Do I have to do something specific, or should it just show up?

[Chola_Kingdom]

after finish loading the replay screen, the second screen should load other wise something wrong with the cin_ed file, did you ever tried to move the replay screen views [units and your armies]before?
