I've just started messing with these, and decided to try to make a light move along the trail (affect actor... use light in world already...)
It ended up attached to my head, in a most inconvenient fashion.
So the question is:
Has anyone got a matinee path to do anything other than move the camera around?
I think it could be useful if other things could be made to follow the routes, but my little test ended up painfully white.

I'm pretty sure matinee isn't supported in flesh. Just another Unreal feature that got cut out. If you want to make something move around you'll probably need to make a fake elevator, like the wisps in Pagan intro. I think there's a tutorial on how to set one up in the wiki.

Well, I've copied what ascottk did, and got it to move the camera okay (and with a little jiggery-pokery, got it to pretend to teleport the player through a window), I was just wondering if anyone had it doing anything more interesting...
I'll experiment later, cause I want a to see if I can get a boat to travel along a path, but I wanted to check no-one else had already declared that utterly impossible before I made the attempt.

Attach the boat to an invisible AI, maybe? :rolleyes:

Or use an elevator, the way the Pagan wisps were done.
