IMPORTANT: THIS PROGRAM IS IN BETA-TEST!
We have made this page public so that testers can download and check the package.
Everything's a bit "raw" and somethings aren't well understood ..
Please use the comments below for reporting problems....
Attributes that are too limited, or not limited enough
Combinations of values (or missing values) that can crash the game
Program error messages.. and what you did just before it appeared.
Technical Issues regarding the movie / animation encoding.
Suggestions for improvements that will help everyone.. not just you.
Investigate, Discover, Diagnose
Things like "Hey, if you set X,Y and Z to that.. the game crashes, but if you unset X and set A to this then it's fine..." are great!
"Help the game crashed!" is absolutely no use, to anyone.
There's probably 100 different ways you can crash the game without the editor warning you, and we want to know what they are.
Please do NOT use the comments below to ask...
How do I make a Movie? How do I make it do...? What does this attribute do?
What does that mean? It says there's a problem... how do I fix it?
How do I add my movie to my level?
All the reference info about Movies , Animations, the tags and the attributes is here..... http://goofans.com/developers/reference-guide Please use it!
And feel free to leave comments on those pages if you think anything is wrong or unclear.
Hints for learning movies....
Chapter3Mid is very simple, most of the animation is done "stop frame"
Chapter2Mid has a couple of "scenes" and some simple interpolated animations.
wogcunlock has both stop-motion and interpolated animation which work together.
I've included a looping sample in the installer (in the program folder) see the readme...
After that... well... you're on your own....
There is 1 screenshot.

I don't think anybody has even thought about beginning to make a Mac version...
This program is in beta-test, and this page was just opened today to the public, so please be patient, ok?

I found another problem! Not technically a bug, but annoying.
If I want to add another frame BEFORE the last keyframe in an actor, I have to go into the XML to do it, because otherwise it goes to the end of the list and the game crashes.

I take it you're using the Right-Click menu on the actor...
Yes.. that always just adds a "blank" frame at the end.
If you want to insert a frame, between 2 others... use the "Add keyframe" button on the toolbar. It can be (and is) far more context sensitive.
http://goofans.com/developers/reference-guide/movie-view
It will add a key frame to the selected actor at whatever time the slider is currently set to.
If that is between to frames that are interpolated, it will also calculate the values at that time, and set those as default on the inserted frame.

So soon? Nice.

You can edit the original moovies! That's bad, right?
Sun, 10/17/2010 - 12:34
How would it help you in the game?

Sun, 10/17/2010 - 13:15
Albino Pokey said, that changing movies not marks you as a cheater. When you changes movies, It deosn't makes game easier, and it isn't "evil".
But I think that changing original movies should be locked in the editor.

Sun, 10/17/2010 - 13:17
But why? If you want to make your own Chapter1End, what's wrong with it?

OK... There should be a warning message "Are you sure to change original movie?".
PS. Watch 1st addin using custom Goovie! Goo Tool doesn't support cutscene correctly, so it works a bit strange, but... Available here

The "Plan" is...
Original Movies can be loaded / editted / changed during early Beta Test...
I hope this will let people find / describe problems better...
Load Movie {whatever}, change this one thing... Save and preview = Crash.
Later, may be during beta, or when it's ready for "release" I'll change it so you can't save the originals, just clone them... like WooGLE.
@Goosweek
New GooTool v1.0.3 seems to handle cutscene OK.
Oh.. and not quite the first... see Breakout2
Sun, 10/17/2010 - 13:27
Why not let us save them, just with a warning like Goosweek said?

Goosweek! I wanted to do that for my Red Cave first!
...
Edit: Well I now realised that GooTool was also updated at the same time with NEW AND STRANGE STUFF. It will take me a long time until I can recover from brain trauma.

You guys, Daft as Brush beat both of you...and actually, I did too, in my Another Planet demo.

@A.P.
Your Goovie wasn't "realy custom". You changed original movie without saving original one! And there wasn't anything "form you". Your movie is based on Chapter1End, you only changed some graphics...

No, I also messed with the resource file...
Anyway, there was no way to encode binltl's at that time, so how could I have?
Actually, I think the "First Movie" award goes to GooGooAction, for his mo1 video level in Time for Real.

Probably I found when Goovie crashes: When the actor has only 1 keyframe.
Author of Platforms of Goo and 64 levels for World of Goo .
Tue, 10/19/2010 - 02:45
@Goosweek
No.. I think it's something else...
Actors can have just 1 keyframe.. backgrounds, things that don't move and are visible for the whole movie...
But if you have a movie that crashes the game... I'd be interesting to know if you do find out what causes it.
Tue, 10/19/2010 - 03:45
so, DaB... did you use it?
I dont think you did :/

I found a problem. If you create a Text Actor and leave the 'font' field empty, than the game won't start and won't display any error if you click "Save XML and Preview Movie". Hope this helps

Probably there is another reason of crashing Goovies: too much decimal places in values of angle or scale.
Author of Platforms of Goo and 64 levels for World of Goo .
Wed, 10/20/2010 - 09:41
@Tacomann
No, in the end I decided it would be better if I used the same girl as I used for the icon in the tree view, and the keyframe icon.. to maintain visual and cognative consistancy... (so they looked the same)
@Saysierd
Yup... I haven't added any / many of those checks yet...
There's probably loads of things like that... image actors without images set, text actors without text or fonts set...
Things that should be pretty obvious they will cause a problem but Goovie doesn't check or complain (yet)...
Let me know if you find any more.
@Goosweek
No problem with decimal places..
ALL the numbers are converted into binary floating point format, which can't hold more than 7 places anyway... so anything after that will just be ignored.
Wed, 10/20/2010 - 09:43
And... In MOVIE_LEVELINFOTRANSITION_MAIN an image is used, that has no resources.
Warning: invalid image reference:| $ISLAND_ICON |Wed, 10/20/2010 - 10:04
RE: $ISLAND_ICON
Yes.. that's a special image reference which doesn't exist as a "resource" anywhere, and is set by the game.exe based on which island you are currently in.
So far I haven't found a good way of dealing with it... but you should be able to ignore it... mostly.
OK you can't "preview" that movie because of it... but you can still Export the movie, and then all you have to do is start the game and play a level... not a huge problem IMO.
Wed, 10/20/2010 - 10:13
Im not saying it is
. But when there will (probably) be a "Make Goomod"... Then it won't fit.

There is problem with dragging new keyframe-images. And interpolation should be set automaticaly to "linear".
Author of Platforms of Goo and 64 levels for World of Goo .
Fri, 10/22/2010 - 10:59
I think the dragging problem is more to do with changing the time on the keyframe.
How are you adding them? Right-Click menu or "Add KeyFrame" Toolbar button?
There is a problem with dragging if you just changed the time for the keyframe.
The keyframe "moves" to whatever time you set, but the time slider doesn't change... So now the slider is not set to the same time as the keyframe, so you can't move, size or rotate it.
Looking at how to fix / improve that.. but for now.. click another keyframe in the list, then click back on the one you changed the time on. The slider will jump to that time, and you will be able to drag the keyframe.
On interpolation... maybe... but then I think there will be people who say interpolation should set autmatically to "none"
Looking for a "good" way to solve this.. options, or maybe a "per actor" default, or same the the previous frame.
At the moment if you use the Toolbar to add a new frame between 2 with interpolation = "linear", it sets the new frame to "linear" as well.. otherwise it leaves it "blank".

Dab, in which time zone do you live ?
Sat, 10/23/2010 - 04:06
Well right now I'm in GMT+1 (BST), but I'm off to GMT+8 (CST) next week, for a couple of weeks...
Why?
Sat, 10/23/2010 - 04:08
I wanted to know when your "available".
Sat, 10/23/2010 - 17:37
Ive got an IDEA
How about routes ^_^
i.e. You set a route for an actor and it follows it in a period of time ^_^

yeah, i guess :/
I dunno, it'll just be much easier for things to 'move' in a certain path

Yeah that would be a nice feature. I do think that it will be very hard to create that option.
Sun, 10/24/2010 - 08:01
Yes, because you'd have to make a ton of keyframes...
Maybe something like Adobe's Path Tool, where you have a bunch of points with lines between them that you can drag around, each point representing a keyframe?

Now I'm sure I found the reason of crashing Goovies.
When you use linear interpolation, you need to set every parameter (color is not required) in 1st and the last keyframe (It can be any keyframe after last linear-interpolated. It doesn't have to be next one). Each parameter must be set in at least one keyframe after last linear-interpolated one.
PS. 1st keyframe have to be always full-specified.
