Simple Non-Repeat Quiz
More and more frequently we are being asked to help with making quizzes and other features to complement the DVD material. Sometimes this is a simple quiz where a number of questions arrive on screen and can be answered by any viewer, and sometimes they are far more complex with all kinds of game-play aspects to include.
Our advice is that you need to keep in mind the limitations of DVDs for this kind of thing. Whilst you can make superb quizzes, you are restricted by the number of memory slots as to how extensive the question selection and scoring can be. Trying to recreate a four player or team quiz complete with scoring and taking turns is a pretty complex task. Equally, having loads of questions in the quiz makes tracking what has been asked all the more difficult.
However, plenty of very simple quiz games can be made and the following link will download an ultra simple non-repeating quiz with just five questions. The idea is that you see what is involved in making the quiz rather than take it and use it as a template for a bigger game. Random question selection and tracking can be done in several ways, not only the way it is done here, for example. You may need more scripts of better structures if your quiz is reasonably complex.
