Hi,

I'm working on a PSP version of 'Deal or No Deal', but would like to have a video intro for it. Is there a way to play video files through my own code? If anyone wants to know what 'Deal or No Deal' is then take a look at http://www.channel4.com/deal
It's the UK version of a US show.

Thanks in advance for any help,

Polo

By the way - Did you know thats there's already a Deal or no Deal game? It's called "So do we havea deal or what" and it's been coded in Lua

yeah, he also did a UK version
Was it you, i can never remember names...
as for you question, it should be possible in C, but not in lua.

Ahhh, I didn't know there was already a version written, maybe I should find something else to write.

Although I might just finish it anyway, and put it away with the rest of the files I have.

Thanks anyway.

with states
menu state
game state
video state

does your game have an ingame menu?

It will have an ingame menu once I've created a generic routine I can use on all my games.
I'm just ripping and converting voice samples at the moment to make it sound better. Also, I'm thinking of putting some adverts in for a laugh for when Noel goes to a break, lol
