There are some fields down in the lower portion of the VVC window that I don't understand. They are cryptic like everything else in Near Infinity. What I would like to do, and my question here is whether anyone knows how to do that, is to make a VVC play one cycle first (a door opening) and then keep playing another (the door standing open). It's a looping VVC, so the idea is just as described - an intro first and then the main picture going on until the end of the duration. I can't think of any standard spells that do this, but maybe someone else can?

Try VEF: https://gibberlings3...mats/vef_v1.htm

"Ok, I've just about had my FILL of riddle asking, quest assigning, insult throwing, pun hurling, hostage taking, iron mongering, smart-arsed fools, freaks, and felons that continually test my will, mettle, strength, intelligence, and most of all, patience! If you've got a straight answer ANYWHERE in that bent little head of yours, I want to hear it pretty damn quick or I'm going to take a large blunt object roughly the size of Elminster AND his hat, and stuff it lengthwise into a crevice of your being so seldom seen that even the denizens of the nine hells themselves wouldn't touch it with a twenty-foot rusty halberd! Have I MADE myself perfectly CLEAR?!"

There is a working .vef example in most of the EE games 'spcomex.vef'.  it is used by comet.pro 

You can use .vef in place of vvc's most of the time.

Thanks. I'm fine most of the time. The portcullis needed different mechanics anyway, and that obviated the need for those timed animations.
