    Well i know that the few ns movies out there can't be compares to the good q3 movies, but there are still some things which could have been done better:

    -There is no gamma correction on the footage. I think there's a sticky in the mapping forum which explains how to do that.
    -config is not very good. Things like "GL_TEXTUREMODE "GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR"" are missing.
    -same for anti-alias and anisotropic filtering (which is a must-have for capruting movies).
    -editing is very basic. No (or very few) hltv/spectator settings, only very basci transitions/effects

    But the tricks are all uber-leet. Sometimes i was wondering of those are recorded with an older version?

    Overall enjoyable to watch if you know the game, but should be very boring for non-ns players :X

    Very true. I had no idea that config editing was necessary when I made avis out of
    the demos I had, so that's why I haven't done that. AA/AF is a bigger mistake
    though, and I'm a bit annoyed because it was just a case of simple forgetfullness
    by me. I simply forgot to turn it on when I was converting the demos, and didn't
    spot it before it was way too late to go back and re-convert.

    HLTV/spectator views were basically out of the question due to the fact that they
    barely work at all with NS (third person/first person only anyway, unless you hack
    it with a console command, but then you have to bind keys to turn and that makes
    it look horribly choppy)

    I could've done more variety when it comes to transitions, but I decided to just go
    with the ones that fit the audio synch best (you'll notice the checkerboard effect
    appearing every time there's a "swooosssschhh" sound, for instance.).

    There's no doubt about it being a movie primarily made for the NS audience,
    though. Most of the jumps are simple map exploits that you won't get anything out
    of unless you know the map layout and the skilled jumps will seem boring to
    Quake/TFC/etc. players due to NS speed limitations.

    All the tricks were done with NS 3.0b4 / 5 <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    yeah the spectator stuff is very difficult if you don't have tools to do that for you, i understand that you didn't want to put so much time in them <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->.

    I'm sure your next movie will be much better if the content is not ONLY ns trickjump <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Just to carify: All jumps were performed on 3.0 beta 4 (though theres 1 clip on ns_lost that I did on beta 5 that was added at the last minute).

    No scripts were used, just mwheel bound to +jump

    hmmm, for some reason when i try to run the video, whichever player i use gets an error saying "Blahblah Player has encountered an Error and must close. Sorry for any inconvenience."

    can anyone be of some help? is my download corrupt?
  • TOmekkiTOmekki Join Date: 2003-11-25 Member: 23524Members
    maybe the player is inadequate for the task at hand =) the links provided in the first post could possess an answer, who knows.

    Try downloading Media Player Classic or VLC. (assuming you've already installed Xvid as instructed).

    Fana, I wish I had known you were making a jump video, me and cloud king stayed up till 4 AM once just pulling off amazing jumps, like jumping up the entire staircase in ns_veil in pipeline. Also other cool tricks, like we'd jump up rails and then at the end toss an LMG in the air and catch it to complete the jump. Silly stuff like that.




    Also, Mercior and all of the euro's who made this:

    <!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->No scripts were used, just mwheel bound to +jump<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    What kind of a joke is that? It's much easier to time your jumps with +jump to the mousewheel, because the mwheel spams jump SOOO much faster. Just a big lol there.

    I wouldn't read too much into it. He was just stating a fact regardless of how we
    feel about the script/mwheel discussion.

    Don't delete those demos yet, I might do a sequel.

    Awsome. Especially the mine jumping part... even thought it was very difficult to see at some parts, it was still a very good movie.
