To add a .jpg into the briefing, use something like the following line

<br><p align="center"><img src="picture.jpg" width="64" height="64"></p>

the actual jpg is stored in the mission folder

Dont bother using too high a resolution, this only adds to filesize, and once you get to a certain resolution, it doesnt appear any better. I forgot what the max resolution i used was


For size you can use a combination of the following width, height sizes

16 32,64,128, 256, 512


I find 256 X or greater is a bit too big for the page though



as far as adding it to the cutscene is concerned

here is an example of the Description.ext entry

Code: [Select]

class RscTitles
{
   titles[]={starttext1};
   
   class starttext1
   {
     Ã‚ Â Â idd=-1;
     Ã‚ Â Â movingEnable=0;
     Ã‚ Â Â duration=6;  
     Ã‚ Â Â fadein=2;  
      fadeout=2;
     Ã‚ Â Â name="starttext1";
     Ã‚ Â Â controls[]={"Screen","Titel1",};
     Ã‚ Â Â 
     Ã‚ Â Â class Screen : RscStdText
     Ã‚ Â Â {
     Ã‚ Â Â   Ã‚ Â Â style=48;
     Ã‚ Â Â   Ã‚ Â Â text="MYPICTURE.JPG";
     Ã‚ Â Â   Ã‚ Â Â x=0.2;
     Ã‚ Â Â   Ã‚ Â Â y=0.2;
     Ã‚ Â Â   Ã‚ Â Â w=0.6;
     Ã‚ Â Â   Ã‚ Â Â h=0.1;
     Ã‚ Â Â };
and here is how it is called in a script

Code: [Select]

titlecut ["","black in",3]
TitleRsc ["starttext1","plain",8]

I may be wrong, but, I think startext1 is supposed to be the text you want to display.

Substitute your text in there...try it anyway

Edit:......forget that.....I'm off target I think.
