I am trying to play a flash video in my map but I can not seem to figure out what seems to be the problem. I have searched the forums here but no real detail on how to set up the triggers.
Also when importing the flash video it seems it was only possible to do a .swf format, .flv would not show up in the pop up window that says choose your flash animation. Am I wrong because I'd much rather have the .flv since its half the size.
Now I believe it may have something to do with not using this trigger...
DialogItemInvokeasStringDialog-InvokesmethodMethod(NoParameter(String),NoParameter(String),NoParameter(String),NoParameter(String))onflashdialogitem(Lastcreateddialogitem)for(Allplayers)Info:"Calls a method invoke on a loaded flash dialog item. The flash dialog item must have a flash file loaded which has the specified method name in it. The parameters for the invoke method are optional."
I do not understand the info which is supplied with the trigger, mainly on this part "The flash dialog item must have a flash file loaded which has the specified method name in it." As in what would be the method name that I supply to the trigger?

I'm not very proficient in flash creation, but iirc flash files(, like Starcaft maps,) can have methods that do something. For example a method that starts playing the movie. So you need this method name. How you get it? Well, maybe you can access the flash file with a flash editing program and look it up.
