Question about youtube and subsim forums...
 

Is it possible to put a direct youtube link on a post? I mean, showing the video miniature?:06:
thanks!

You mean so you actually see the picture here rather than having to click a link? I'm not sure, but I don't think so.

It's called embedding, and it's not possible for some reason, if it were you'd know about it. My guess is the forum software isn't enabled for it.

Thanks guys!
Ok, we can live with only a simple link line.

Perhaps Neal could look into it. I am a member of another Forum powered by vBulletin which has this enabled.

Yes, I also!

I´m a member from the german Design-MOD-Project Forum and in this Forum it works too:

it is possible to do what you are asking here in subsim , look here (at post 1939):

John (aka Reaper7) knows how to do it so just drop him a pm and he will tell you


ps: Congratulations on your last mod Rubini ( air torpedoes ) . always your mods are VERY interesting and ,most of all,essential ! thank you very much for this great addition :yep:

Hi my Friend!

I think we would be all happy if Reaper would explain us all how we implement a YouTube Video here in a post, not only to rubini in a pm....! :03:

Currently as it stands vBulletin (subsim forum application) does not support embedded YouTube as standard.
To get around this custom BB code is required which can only be installed via the admin panel (By Unkel Neal).
As can be seen here http://www.geekpoint.net/threads/you...bulletin.3877/

The method I used as Manos linked doesn't actually embed the YouTube video.
Instead I cheated and used a static pic of the video cropped from the YouTube site.
This pic is then hyperlinked to the actual video. Crude but effective.

hi Thomas,
there is not such a thought-intention here Thomas.
as i know John,i know that he would had replied to Rubini if he had seen his question (as he actually did now) so i suggested Rubini to pm John just in order to get ,for sure, an answer from John....thats all :yep:

@ reaper: Thx for explanation! :up:
@ Manos: All is now clear my Friend! :salute:

And thanks to all by the explanations!:up:

@Manos: thanks by the comments on airtorp mod! Yesterday i as able to put a real working acoustic torpedo in game (from an airplane). I will now spent some time to see if it really can be released as a mod. See you!
