Loading CG Videos Using Hammer Editor

Posted Mar 17, 2012
Basically, I want to know if it possible to load a video using the hammer editor at the end of a level (ex. like the last two videos in single player of the Cara Mia Addio and Want You Gone songs), and if it is, does it need to be formatted a certain way (.bik, resolution, ext.). I searched but was unable to find anyone who knew this. I wanted to know before I dropped any time into making an ending video. Thanks in advance!

Thank you. I'm guessing you can load with a trigger right?

Logic_playmovie is the entity used for the fullscreen videos.

Yea, you're right; I was referring to them as being part of elevator movies. In that case the movies won't have sound.
