LUA - Backdrop Video #62

Open Teabone3 opened 6 years ago

Feature Request

Back in the old days of FPSC we had a pretty neat little command that did something quite remarkable for menu screens. "backdropvideo=". This command would allow us to have motion video behind our menu buttons on a loop. Which elevated the quality of our games' first impressions.

Most AAA games have motion in their main menus to set the mood of the game and clear away from the static appearance that seems to plague unprofessional games at first glance.

If we had this in Game Guru, I wouldn't mind volunteering making some quick video loops people could use as stock background videos.

Nice idea, TB ;)

I read somewhere a while ago that this was added? Not seeing it though.

It appears we can actually put sprites in front of videos. However the mouse deactivates during the duration of the video.
