cutscene "somefile.anm" { delay 10 } // defines somefile.anm with a delay of 10 120Hz tics between frames. a more typical framerate method may come later, but this is how the originals worked.
Once defined, they can be played through CON with the new playback command, also called "cutscene". It works like this:
definequote 12345 somefile.anm
define ANIM_SOMEFILE 12345
...
cutscene ANIM_SOMEFILE // halts game execution and immediately plays cutscene, resuming execution when finished
...
Sounds can be played during animations (and tiles can be overlaid, etc) like this:
onevent EVENT_CUTSCENE
ifcutscene ANIM_SOMEFILE
{
ifvare RETURN 12 // frame 12
sound FLY_BY
rotatesprite ...
}
endevent
The value of the RETURN var at the end of EVENT_CUTSCENE determines the next frame to play. This can be used for looping, etc. Attempting to play animations backwards outright is not advised as animations only seek in one direction (so rewinding requires running it through from frame 0 again). This is will WIP and hasn't been heavily tested at all, so please try it out.

I think there's also a fix for the CON precache system breakage in here (lost it in my local tree when I started getting the C++ build working in MSVC, sorry!)

EVENT_SOUND: triggered upon playback of any sound, this allows the "hard coded" sounds to be altered in a context-aware fashion instead of having to resort to clunky hacks like replacing them with a blank sound effect. RETURN var
iable is set to the sound effect # of the sound to be played, or -1 to cancel playback.
EVENT_CHECKTOUCHDAMAGE: triggered in P_CheckTouchDamage() whenever the player collides with anything. Value of RET
URN is set to the result provided by clipmove() and so can be decoded in the same way. Value of RETURN when the event is over can also be manipulated to control some of the hard coded damage effects.
EVENT_CHECKFLOORDAMAGE: triggered in P_CheckFloorDamage(), RETURN is simply the picnum of the floor of the sector t
he player is in. Can be used to cancel hard coded floor damage effects or to make other tiles exhibit the same eff
ects
Other misc fixes and cleanups, including a possible workaround for Duke Plus SECTOREFFECTOR light issues wherein all SE49 and SE50 that have a statnum of STAT_EFFECTOR are simply changed to STAT_LIGHT during the STAT_EFFECTOR loop
now.
