Why are you using 32bit version of ffmpeg? They discontinued updating it like 2 years ago. I'm using the 64bit version and it never crashes unless I do something dumb with it. I'll run some tests when I start working on this problem directly, I'm curious if vdub actually does the job faster...

Cool! thanks for pointing me in the right direction, had no clue what terminology to use. Are there any specific SDK documents you think I should read first?

I have! Sorry you missed it, it was just at the beginning of the month. I'm in the process of editing other things right now (which I hope to release in the next week or so), but I'll get around to that one soon...ish :P It's a solid mod, short but sweet. Being able to finish it in a single...

lol yes! of course! absolutely! I'm not disagreeing with you here! :P I just thought your original problem was having difficulty in creating compatible .mve files because of an inability to create the correct video color type for the source file...which was preventing videos from being able to...

Awesome! Thanks for explaining...a little anyway :) It's probably the case that I simply don't understand what a ddraw.dll file does. For instance, I saw some stuff in the bgforge page about a virtual file system...does that mean the ddraw.dll is some sort of emulated operating system? Or is...

cool! I imagine it would be an enormous amount of work, but if you're up to the task then you have my support :) might have to make an entire mod manager, much like what most modders recommend for bethesda's games

ok, you make a good point, but until the time when the big guys make it compatible, I found this on the ffmpeg news page: https://www.ffmpeg.org/index.html#news October 15th, 2017, FFmpeg 3.4 "Cantor" FFmpeg 3.4 "Cantor", a new major release, is now available! Some of the highlights: ...

Thanks for the tip! Hopefully others will find it useful :) Also, the translation was fine :)

When you say hook is run at a certain event, I don't understand how that differentiates it from critter scripts, or why it can't be used in one. Why does a hook script always run in the background? Is there a separate sfall engine running that ferry's the requests from the script to the engine...

dang that's the nicest looking up-res I've seen of the original videos thanks for sharing! how did @hexer convert his videos? does he have some specific codec or piece of software?

It's true, something like that needs more expert modders contributing to the knowledge base. I'm familiar enough to understand the engine refers to items in a .lst file by their line number (at least the ones I'm familiar with), which is part of the problem making mods cross compatible. You...

There's a lot of stuff to take into account yes, so it's a tough job for anybody who would be interested in doing it, but I'm pretty sure it's not impossible. At this point, OP is probably just waiting for people to comment any specific details that answer their questions. I can answer a few...

I have a million questions about this, wish I wasn't falling asleep right now.

If you start a new game, the very first map you start on has a rock on the path on the other side of Klint. If you "look" at that rock it will tell you what version of RP mod you're playing. At least this used to be the case last time I played. This is difficult to explain and requires some...

Awesome! Thank you! I don't necessarily recommend building off of a platform as a beginner, unless you just want to add your mod specifically as an extension to their mod. This somewhat limits the accessibility of your mod. Lexx is right, because of the way the game keeps track of script...

I'm also learning fallout scripting, and I stream my learning process every saturday, so feel free to pop in and ask questions. I may even be able to answer some :P I'm starting to work on some scripting videos too, so any pointers on what questions I should answer first will also be helpful :)

lol yeah...NovaRain explained the basics of how global scripts work, but is there a more technical explanation why attaching a hook script to a critter won't work? I've been slowly reading through the sfall thread but I haven't found that explanation yet. Well, I've found 6 commands so far...

ok, so NovaRain has been educating me on Global Scripts, and the results are starting to make sense. sorry for the long post. For anybody new to global scripts as I am, apparently as long as the first three letters or the filename are "gl_" then sfall will load them in memory and run all of...

I'm not sure what the video requirements are for playing one in sfall or even the original for that matter, but I do recommend ffmpeg for most converting needs. Open source, command line, super fast tool. It does have a higher than average learning curve though, so I'll happily help if you're...

I know I asked on the discord, but I feel like this needs a longer explanation with more pics than discord easily allows for. Over the weekend I spent some time messing with hook scripts to see if I could figure out how they worked. I think I have a basic understanding of them, but the TOHIT...
