Hello,

This isn't regarding the "more than one zone in a level" issue. This is more noobish perhaps.

I am supposed to be able to use a .bmp image for a storyzone, right? There doesn't seem to be a section in the "media" part of the story zone, just sound and video. I put my .bmp in the videobank directory, but nothing happens except lots of weird colors when I test the thing out.

Any help would be appreciated!

Hm...

I personally have no clue--I actually only thought that FPSC accepted .png, .tga and .dds, even for storyzones, but you sound like you know what you're doing.

You can use jpg files also. If you want to get around the storyzone bug and you're using images and sound only, check here: http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=65207&b=23 It's my storyzone replacement script

@Benjamin:
Great, I'll give those a try. I really appreciate the code.

It suddenly occured to me that perhaps this is a case where the docs are different than what the engine can actually do; it says bitmaps but maybe that was a planned feature, and not something that made it in?
