What do you think of a SmileBASIC video player?

I was thinking, wouldn't it be cool to have a way to do some sort of cut scenes in your games? Well I don't know how I'd make it, but it would be pretty useful. I'm thinking the best way to do it is to display one custom GRP after another, but that would be terrible. You would probably need to have two settings too; New 3DS and Old 3DS. Because of the New 3DS having more RAM, it would be able to display the GRPs faster. Also, having tons of custom GRPs in the file would make it take forever to download... Anyway, if you have an idea of how to do this better, tell me. Also tell me what you think of the idea to have things like custom cut scenes.

Store everything as RGB values in a large (3D) array and manually write the varied pixels to the screen. Easy. (oh, and you need framerate/amount of frames, so add a descriptor of some sort)

Uuhhhhhhhhh yeah..... You can do that if you like... I wouldn't even know where to start.

Wanted to do this, and found out it's been done already. AENK3CJ I think there is definitely room for improvement if some methods from the 8088 Domination demo were to be utilized. Color might be tough within the required size limits.

the way it goes so fast is 1: it uses sprites 2: only updates the pixels that change between frames (which only really works when you have a few different colors, so large areas stay te same between frames)

I have been wondering about Voice Acting in SB. Idk how to use WAV Stuff though...
