Opening Movie
The first time I played SMACX, I skipped the intro, because I didn't know how well my computer would be able to handle the program. But now every time I load the game, the intro doesn't play. I would really like to see it. Is there anyway to get it to play when you open the program, or a certain program I can get to watch it outside of the SMACX program? I'd appreciate any help.

Go to AlphaCentauri.ini. Open it. Find a "DisableOpeningMovie" tag. Change the number to 0.

Go to the movie directory, fing the one .exe file called player something, and drag the movie you want to the player, and it will play it for you.

Also, you can watch movies through the scenario editor.
