The Track View editor, shown in the next screenshot, is the embedded Sandbox cutscene creation tool for making interactive, film-like sequences with time line dependent key-frame control over objects and events in CryENGINE 3. For those already familiar with the CryENGINE 2 Track View system, you will see that it is quite similar; although, improvements have been made as tools such as a Curve Editor and director tracks can now be used for fine-tuning control on, what used to be, hard-to-manage, complex sequences.
Using Track View, creating cinematic cutscenes and scripted events are both possible, which allow you to sequence objects, animations, and sounds in a scene that can be triggered during a game and played either as a detached cutscene from the third-person perspective, or from the first-person perspective of the player as he plays the game.
Sequences created with Track View can be triggered in a game with a specific Flow Graph node, which will be covered...
