That is great news.  I just have one questions that others might be thinking.  How do you put in a video?

Locked Out #3 Is Here

20 years ago

I will write an article on this onea these days, but basically ...

1) Record the Movie on a Camcorder
2) Transfer Video -> PC
3) Chop Video into little segments with Windows Movie Maker (or whatever)
4) Upload movie files to some where on the internet
5) Create the game in the advanced editor using HTML (Source) View to add Movies in:

The only step that has to do with the website MAG.com is #5. Steps #1-3 are surprisingly easy.

Step #4 requires that you have a place to put the files. I put them on MyAdventureGame.com since it's my server. If you need a place to put movie files for a game, I may be able to hook you up and store the movies on this server.

THe code for Step #5 looks like:
