Creating a spawn intro cut-scene?

Hey, love the script, works great, I just have one issue, I am running Halo spawn for new spawns and after death, I would like to run the login camera on normal login only. could anyone please explain how to do this?
 
So from what I have cobbled together through this post the login+music I have works the way I want it, almost. I am looking to only have it all occur with a fresh spawn. I have a vague idea of what I need to do but it has been awhile since I have messed around with files? Anyone care to point me?

If you use the second posts instructions it will do it everytime you login.
 
_id = player addEventHandler ["Respawn", {_id = [] spawn player_death; _nul = [] execVM "loginCamera.sqf";}];

Add it like this and not underneath..
 
Sorry mintypie maybe I didn't explain myself properly, I only want login camera for players that are loging back in only, as I am using halo spawn for fresh spawns and after death, I have it all sorted now, just trying to call in camera after black loading screen now, not after spawn. I will post up how later as I am at work now
 
if u want logincamera for players that are just logging back in only (not for new spawn or after death) put this code in your init.sqf
Code: 
// LOGIN CAMERA ON RE-LOG
camera = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "logincamera.sqf";
 
if !(dayzPlayerLogin2 select 2) then
{
    player spawn camera;
};
i'm still trying to call it in before the player spawns, but I am no coder and it will be pure luck if it works ;)
 
for god mode aswell while u log in I made file called logincamera_execute.sqf and put the links to my files like this
Code: 
[] execVM "camera\playerspawn.sqf";
[] execVM "camera\logincamera.sqf";
then added this to my init.sqf
Code: 
// LOGIN CAMERA ON RE-LOG
camera = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "camera\logincamera_execute.sqf";
 
if !(dayzPlayerLogin2 select 2) then
{
    player spawn camera;
};
that's it, i'm using epoch, I did not add this line
Code: 
dayzLoginRecord = nil;
as it is not needed and stuffs up your repair and upgrade buildings.
 
Change these two:
waitUntil {!isNil ("PVDZ_plr_LoginRecord")};
PVDZ_plr_LoginRecord = nil;

To:
waitUntil {!isNil ("PVDZE_plr_LoginRecord")};
PVDZE_plr_LoginRecord = nil;

The last one in your init may not be needed...
 
first thank you for your reply but unfortunately it did not work :(
this is my loginCamera.sqf

private [ "_camera", "_welcomeMessage", "_camDistance" ];
_welcomeMessage = format["Welcome on your Server %1, !",format["%1", name player]];
_camDistance = 60;

waitUntil {!isNil ("dayzLoginRecord")};

//intro move
showCinemaBorder true;
camUseNVG false;

_camera = "camera" camCreate [(position player select 0)-2, position player select 1,(position player select 2)+_camDistance];
_camera cameraEffect ["internal","back"];

_camera camSetFOV 2.000;
_camera camCommit 0;
waitUntil {camCommitted _camera};

_camera camSetTarget vehicle player;
_camera camSetRelPos [0,0,2];
_camera camCommit 8;

cutText [_welcomeMessage, "PLAIN DOWN"];

waitUntil {camCommitted _camera};

_camera cameraEffect ["terminate","back"];
camDestroy _camera;

This my init.sqf

//REALLY IMPORTANT VALUES
dayZ_instance = 11; //The instance
dayzHiveRequest = [];
initialized = false;
dayz_previousID = 0;
PVDZE_plr_LoginRecord = nil;

if (!isDedicated) then {
//Conduct map operations
[] execVM "compile\Server_WelcomeCredits.sqf";
0 fadeSound 0;
waitUntil {!isNil "dayz_loadScreenMsg"};
dayz_loadScreenMsg = (localize "STR_AUTHENTICATING");
_foo = [] execVM "=BTC=_Logistic\=BTC=_Logistic_Init.sqf";

//Run the player monitor
_id = player addEventHandler ["Respawn", {_id = [] spawn player_death;}];
_playerMonitor = [] execVM "\z\addons\dayz_code\system\player_monitor.sqf";
_nul = [] execVM "camera\loginCamera.sqf";
_void = [] execVM "R3F_Realism\R3F_Realism_Init.sqf";


See it as an error?

to Heavy and all- here is my "playerspawn.sqf" with "Godmode-Code" for beeing invulnarable as long as the Cam sequence running:

Code: 
waitUntil {(!isNull Player) and (alive Player) and (player == player) and (!isNil 'dayz_animalCheck')};
player_zombieCheck = {};
fnc_usec_damageHandler = {};
fnc_usec_unconscious  = {};
player allowDamage false;
sleep 4;
playsound "introSong";
sleep 18;
cutText ["Special thx to Storm Division North and the great opendayz.net community", "PLAIN DOWN"];
sleep 8;
cutText ["Especially to .:SDN:.Hoschi, .:SDN:.Solo, Ramrar, Worxmash, blur, kris, ZZane, IT07, Grafzahl, Excelsior, ALKINDA, axeman and the R3F Crew", "PLAIN DOWN"];
sleep 8;
cutText ["All Credits for the Intro Sound goes to DeeJayStarWave", "PLAIN DOWN"];
sleep 8;
cutText ["Good luck and avoid the Kampfkrümel !!!", "PLAIN DOWN"];
sleep 8;
player_zombieCheck = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\compile\player_zombieCheck.sqf";
fnc_usec_damageHandler = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\compile\fn_damageHandler.sqf";
fnc_usec_unconscious = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\compile\fn_unconscious.sqf";
player allowDamage true;

in "description.ext" i changed the CFG Sounds for having a introsound AND the Trainscript Sounds to:

Code: 
class CfgSounds
{
    sounds[] =
    {
    introSong
    };
    class introSong
    {
    name="introSong";
    sound[]={introSong.ogg,0.9,1};
    titles[] = {};
    };
 
    class NoSound
    {
    name = "NoSound";
        sound[] = {"", 0, 1};
        titles[] = {};
    };
    #include "Scripts\Train\sounds.hpp"
};

the init.sqf looks:

Code: 
if (!isDedicated) then {
    //Conduct map operations
    0 fadeSound 0;
    waitUntil {!isNil "dayz_loadScreenMsg"};
    dayz_loadScreenMsg = (localize "STR_AUTHENTICATING");
 
    //Bus Route
    [] execVM "busroute\player_axeBus.sqf";
    //Run the player monitor
    _id = player addEventHandler ["Respawn", {_id = [] spawn player_death; _nul = [] execVM "playerspawn.sqf";}];
    _playerMonitor =    [] execVM "\z\addons\dayz_code\system\player_monitor.sqf"; 
    _nul = [] execVM "playerspawn.sqf";
    _nul = [] execVM "camera\loginCamera.sqf";
    _void = [] execVM "R3F_Realism\R3F_Realism_Init.sqf";

hope this will help a bit

------------------------------------------
I have Epoch 1.0.2.5
An in my dayz_code.pbo i find only player_spawn_1.sqf and player_spawn_2.sqf.
Where is your file saved?
 
Hey I'm using epoch 1.0.2.5 and I finally got this login camera to work straight after black loading screen, does not spawn to player first, I am calling it from the player_monitor.fsm, and removed the waituntil line in logingcamera.sqf, will post how later as I'm at work now, but works the way I want now, very happy
