i'm tring to create the chapter menu in Starwars EP1. the menus are animated, and when i choose to go to another page there's and animation first, then the other page apears.
I have 10 chapter pages, "divided" in two groups, the ones on the left and the ones on the right. i can only see one of the sides at a time. pages 1-5; 11-15; 21-25; 31-35; 41-45 are on the right side and the rest is on the left side...
imagine this... i'm in "chapter page 1-5" and want to go to "chapter page 6-10". in the original DVD there's an animation and then it goes to that menu.
the problem is that i cannot assign "chapter page 6-10" as a timeout target to that animation, because i want that same animation to be used when i want to go to any page on the left side.
i don't have to create a menu for every button, that i know because the original DVD only has one animation to go to each side (1 for the left and 1 for the right).
I thought i might need command sequences or something... so i tried with some jump commands, to jump from "chapter page 1-5" to the animation and to "chapter page 6-10" but since the animation doesn't have a timeout target... it won't jump to that chapter page, it stops in the animation.
hope i managed to explain my problem...
that menu is the only thing left to finish the movie... and i really need to clean my HDD, this movie has been here for 2 weeks now!!!
thanks...
