PHILLIPPBOR'S PROFILE

If the boss is telegraphing it's next move, it can probably be done by setting a variable aside to keep track of the boss' current HP, and using different monster IDs (and therefore, graphics and moves) for each move the boss can take. You'd probably be best off programming the AI of each form so that there is a sequence that it moves through.

If the boss changes it's graphic based on what move it's doing "now", this becomes much harder. I'm still figuring that you'd use a different ID for each form/move, and that there would be a variable that keeps track of what the boss's current HP is. However, I don't recall if there is a way to store what move a given monster is doing in TsuK3/2K3 off-hand.

Your movie probably got corrupted. My copy of rpg2k3 plays movies just fine.
Make sure the movie resolution is the same as rpg2k3's screen resolution.

Also. Close rpgmaker and play the movie in your pc on it's own. If you can hear it then the problem lies with rpgmaker2003, but if you can't hear any sound by playing it on your media player then it is the movie's fault.

Honestly, using movie files on rpg2k3 is kinda difficult. There's lots of stuff you have to be careful about, like the movie's resolution, choosing the proper codec for your movie's compression (or else you'll end up with a 320x240 video that weighs 50MB) and then there's the audio codec, which may bug out at any second.

What i'd reccommend is getting rid of unnecesary audio to begin with. Have the movie with no sound, and if you must use music, make rpg2k3 play a music track before the movie event, and use that track as background noise for your movie.

This of course means you can only rely on MUSIC, because playing a file with sound effects that you want to be synced with the actions on the video, while playing that video at the same time, won't bring pleasurable results. RPG Maker 2003 has no lag when it comes to playing music, but there's a long lag before any movie files play on that engine (i tested a 5MB, 5 second movie file with the engine, the engine took 5 seconds before it played the movie in-game). So the audio is bound to sound de-synced.
