Can one "continuously loop" the intro video?

Post by ETF »

OK attending a wargaming con (mostly board wargaming and miniatures <sigh> they don't see the light of computer wargaming) and was wondering is there an easy way to "loop" the intro video? I will have it playing on a large projector screen "looping" when we are not showing off the game as we play.
Thanks

Sure you can. The videos are in the .wmv format, so will play with Windows Media Player. Just navigate to the folder that they're in and select them to play. You'll need to make sure your Media Player preferences are set to loop, and if there is a particular order that you want them playing in, you might want to rename the files so that they are alphanumerically ordered in the order you wish. Oh, and make sure that shuffle play in not enabled.

you have me thinking, any other eastern front videos I could loop in with it to make it a little longer?
