Michal5 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 I have the same problem, they just don't work, black screen and nothing, I have win7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyFr3sh Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 I have the same problem, they just don't work, black screen and nothing, I have win7.Did you try to mess around with the settings a bit? Try DxWnd with/withou GDI Mode. You can also try Cutscene change resolution. Window mode is worth a try too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunkyFr3sh Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 thanks for sharing this solution Affugter! I actually coded it in a way to play the english videos if the videos of the chosen language are not found, I will take a look into it and fix the bug ASAP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyFr3sh Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Found the problem, the movies were supposed to be inside data\movies\ in the original game, but in the gruntmods downloads the movies are inside movies\, that makes it glitch Will forward it to gruntlord so he can fix it on the next update 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a look into the library the installer really downloaded the cutscenes but the file sizes are zeros. So need to mount the original disc images or put the disc in optical drive and copy the content pf movie folder to the Dune2000 Gruntsmod/movies folder and rewrite the fake files. 1. Install the gruntsmod edition 2. let the installer download and setup the cutscenes/cinematic files (it will download fake files with zero sizes) 3. mount the original disc image file (with daemon tools for example) 4. copy content of the "ISObin:\movies" folder to XY:\Gruntmods Studios\Dune 2000\movies (rewrite all) 5. play with cutscenes at now!

a1rcart Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 If you installed your Gruntmods edition and cutscenes doesn't play (doesn't ever appear). Then, guys, here is the solution. You might want to give it a try. First, you can get cutscenes by visiting https://gruntmods.com/cutscenes-and-extra-content/ After exe is complete, go to C:\Users\...\Gruntmods Studios\Dune 2000\movies Copy files from C:\...\Dune 2000\movies to C:\...\Dune 2000\data\Movies Within the config settings (launcher) set language to eng, and try checkboxes. My config works well for me: >Resolutin 640x400 >Renderer: DirectDraw >Movies enabled yes >Sounds enabled yes >Force No-CD yes >Language: eng >Single Processor Affinity yes >Disable Max Windowed Mode yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Respect to the Gtuntmods team for all the work they have put in. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rburny Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 I hit the same problem, and in my case the file sizes in the movies directory were also zero. I tried to download a standalone cutscene installer and it seems like the "Direct Download" option is disabled (requires login, but AFAIK you can't sign in to gruntmods). I tried reinstalling the game, and noticed that the installer enters "download cutscenes" stage and quickly exits - most likely it also fails to contact the server and just gives up on the cutscene installation. So, I instead installed cutscenes through the "Torrent Download" option - and voila, everything works! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've fixed the issue and the direct download should function correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
