Cinematics Editor

<div class="IPBDescription">Uncharted Territory?</div>Been trying to map out what exactly is going on in this, seeing as we have no documentation either in the editor or on the web.

Let's collect our knowledge here.

So far I have found it to be very confusing.

I have set level and loaded it up, and created a particle emitter then placed it in the map and then rendered it. I accidentally closed the properties window, and then was unable to work out how to re-open it. After 15 mins and clicking nearly all the menu options, I gave up.

Seems like a really cool toy though. Can you share what you have so far? The above is really all my experience so far :P

Here is a thread and tutorial about the cinematic editor (not much though):

In order to get your properties window back you have to delete the options.xml for this editor in:
\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\Natural Selection 2\Cinematic Editor
..and then never close it again until this window is added to the menu ;)

I tried to make a cinematic with this tool and got everything in place while studying the NS2 menu cinematic but still find it hard to understand the whole deal of animating it.
