new main menu mod

Post » Wed Nov 17, 2010 5:58 pm

I'm desperately trying to get http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVO2SxY6Ibw&feature=related mod to work as it should. I'm having trouble with MGE and texture hooking a new menu_morrowind.dds to the mdagger.avi. Has anyone used this mod and can help? I have k lite, mge, and all the software needed to play the mod. (I believe, I could be missing something)

Help is much appreciated.

Yes, I couldn't get that to work myself. Apparently a few people had some success converting the video, but I haven't tried that yet.

I'm using k lite as my codec. I'm pretty sure it has something with texture hooking in mge.

Sorry about the confusion guys.

Firstly, it is about the codec 99%. The other option is maybe your MGE's texture hooking function is not working.

The real problem is file sizes and I have ADSL. My upload speed is very low so I picked a codec with high compression.

Here is one with MPEG-4 codecs:
http://www.4shared.com/file/weunUzmw/alternatecodec.html

Replace the file in "/MGE videos/" folder with this one. See if it helps.

Also you DON'T have to use the texture hook generation wizard. It is pre-hooked. Don't worry about that. Just install like a regular mod and enable texture hooks in Misc tab of MGEgui.

that does not work.
and I even tested by remaking the “texture hook generation wizard".

if somebody who converted the video, could say to me that it parameters and codec (divx? mpeg4? etc.) it used they would be nice. :icecream:

When I was trying out texture hooking, out of the entire stack of codecs on my computer, only one worked for me without issues: x264. I believe I got it from K-lite, as well.

[edit] - I tried the package from the YouTube page, and it worked for me. :shrug: MPClassic says it's in H264. Like vtastek says, it seems to be codec issues. Can you play the video in a media player?

Sometimes, the game will actually play the video in a separate window. It's weird, but you can see it if you play in windowed mode.
