I need to work on it and i would like other players (NOT NPC's) to act out the parts.

Real actors with players... sounds interesting, but I believe it would take too much time to get something decently acted.

It may take time, but the outcome would be magnificent!

As much as I'd like to give a good complement about this.. I can't do as much.. I can suggest that the rock and scene look like it was a part of the game though... Might want to reread what I said about how long it takes people to read things, this time to shorten the time. NPC's would be much much better then players in this situation I think... It usually takes shorter time to read then it takes some people to type.. lol

Anyway, I assume it is your server so you are free to do what you want.. I wish you luck. ^.^ At least you are trying something like this.

It'd most likely turn out MUCH nicer if you used NPCs.

Thanks DavidK and Matt for the feedback and, as always, i'm improving it now!

Is there really no way to make a video appear on Graal?
I mean if I have to I could save it as... I don't know.. 2400 pictures assuming I have a two minute video, then create it my self as a video via scripting.. But I'd think there would be another way.

I'd like to have a 3D preview for the upcoming server, to give an idea of what they would be doing... to promote the server. Possibly even cut-scenes..

Is the answer really no? Possibly implement it in the future?

You can display Flash videos but I don't believe that's working in the latest V6, so personally I would avoid having that as a dependency.

I would really hate to have to download a large video just to see what a Graal server would be like.

D: I was thinking of having a small preview of guy chopping a tree, guy mining, guy walking to a cave, then having the title come on.. I mean I just made this up but it would be probably around 30 seconds lol.. just a small interesting skit for the starters.

Would they be able to make something read a url to show video in the future? People could have a youtube video, and a ?gui window? could pop up and show the url video.. I'm unsure how it would be made..

Either way, I can definitely skip it, I just remembered this thread yesterday and had the idea.

Thanks ^.^

This does not make any sense, is this about Armageddon or about some beasts below some thing that I'm not aware of?

It needs a lot of work. You need to look at it as a person who doesn't have any clue what the server is about.
Also you should concentrate more on a backstory than a storyline. The storyline bit is very hard to do on a multiplayer game.
Some players hate a storyline and would rather quit than have to watch a movie. Other players might be fine with the storyline, but it could be a turn-off for some of graal's population.
