It would improve the flow, just a suggestion.

It's difficult to make a cutscene during combat, because Asterix can still be hit by enemies

pegperegogaucho

And from the feedback I got from other mods, people really don't like a suddenly changing camera :Obelul:

pegperegogaucho

Maybe I can make a 2 second cutscene for UXXL where you can still be killed :peepoEvil:

hesopesomeso

I can't replicate it

hesopesomeso

Is that so. I remember dying in a cutscene during a speedrun :Obelul:

hesopesomeso

Yeah

hesopesomeso

But wait, can't we freeze the enemies though? By disabling their life?

pegperegogaucho

If there is no cutscene flag already for that, then no... I don't want to change the code again :Obelul:

pegperegogaucho

However, you could have a Sam somewhere in the void with no dialogue and a camera that shows the door, because his cutscenes freeze enemies

pegperegogaucho

But that is just silly

hesopesomeso

It's possible. A cinematic scene disables/enables lives of hooks & group lives.

pegperegogaucho

With what flag?

hesopesomeso

Not a flag. (actually, there's a flag to NOT disable it). The cinematic scene itself has cinematic scene data, which contain the hooks with hook lives. There's also a group of hook list member in the cinematic scene. It uses the first life in the list, not all though :/ the games doesn't use it at all.

hesopesomeso

Maybe you can just disable them all with the cinematic data?

hesopesomeso

I know Sam calls a function which toggles enemy lives. It's only used for Sam though. It also disables bonuses.

pegperegogaucho

So it's never done like this in the base game, so I'd rather not do it for Beta Rome

pegperegogaucho

But interesting that you can add any life to it, if that works

pegperegogaucho

I'm also not sure what would happen if you list an inactive enemy, maybe that could cause problems

hesopesomeso

It wouldn't, it simply disables the hook life.
