Hi all.
Is it too late to propose a new Video project, or is everyone going as far away as they can from this game?
Normally I would start rendering same old.. running down the Bridge.
If you havent seen any of my work before, here there are:
http://www.youtube.com/user/elizsweden?feature=results_main
But if there are anyone else interested in doing something different than the normal frag movie, we might make a combined effort.
I have some real life experience of project managment, and would be able to handle that.
I would also be able to handle FX. I've made a number of tools that are quite unique.
What is further needed is:
Ideas, in game acting, voice acting and a Private server,
I have a few months free, before returning to my studies.
-
What is the point really?

To have fun with the game in a different way than you.

I like it :D
Tried so many times in my life to do one but they all sucked so I never published em. I can help ya anytime :)

I've tried time after time to make the best AAO fanmovie I could make, but I still feel I could do better. I'm hoping that by adding others talents to my own this will be possible.
A reason for some others might be to be able to influence non 2.5 players to return, thus adding interest for 2.5.
Even if I haven't loaded the game in a few years without the purpose of making a video, I still care about the game.
I made this topic to get feedback as well as seeing if anyone was interested in joining the project. I take your post as a "no", I thank you for your feedback.
I'll follow up in a few days, and we'll see if there is enugh interest
.

All your AA movies combined together, although very nicely done, drove less than 100 views. So I wish you luck :up:

I could be volunteer.. depends on what i must to do :D

i`m in :)

Just saw your video very good work, makes me a bit nostalgic, count me in.
-
Good that some are interested.
More might come if we start doing some work.
First off, let?s try brainstorming a bit.
Easiest way of doing a video as this is making small separate Short movies, 30-60 sec, combining in one longer.
For instance, one scene could be a soldier standing on the bridge, sad music playing in the background.
With a Sad/anxious expression on his face, he jumps off the bridge, seaming killing him self.
Camera following him as he fall, after a few seconds he recoils, revealing that he is bungyjumping.
Also give suggestions about what maps would be cool to be using.
I'm working in the background converting and updating my converting/Recoding tools, I also started loading maps into 3DS Max so that it can be used to render the movie.
-
What's the point? Come on man, waste of time...
... just kidding. Nice to see people willing to do such things. Hoah.
-
nice music
-
I noticed you worked alot on bridge crossing, perhaps you could try to use other popular maps (hospital, urban, pipe, insurgent) or perhaps even not known maps ...
Creatitviy is not smt for me lol
-
I now have done the most work in coverting more AAO maps to 3ds Max, I have some issues with lights and terrains, but I expect to be able to handle those within a few days.
These are the maps I've done so far:
Border
Bridge
Bridge_SE
camp_mackall
Dusk
FLS
HQ_Raid
Insurgent_Camp
Leavenworth
Mountain_Ambush
Mountain_Pass
Mountain_Pass_SE
MOUT_McKenna
Obstacle
Pipeline_SF
Radio_Tower
Rifle_Range
SFblizzard
SFcsar
SFDockside
SFhospital
SFoasis
Swamp_Raid
Tunnel
Urban_Assault
US_Weapons
Weapons_Cache
Weapons_Cache_SE
Woodland_Outpost
If you can imagine a funny story on any of these maps, post the idea here.
I'll post a few SS of misc maps later, so that you can get a idea of the visual apperence of the video possible.

Would be nice to make a real warscenario on big maps like radiotower or border :up:

Here is a rendertest showing off the possiblity of rendering a scene with motionblur in full HD

nice work Eliz,
-
Nice indeed.

This video shows off the possibility of customize the player model, changing textures and adding details.

I'm adding these videos in the hope that it will inspire ideas.
-
Damnit I'd really loike to help but inspiration is not my thing =(
-
I have improved the weapons import.
Prior to this I had to manually add the current Weapon and handle weapons switching manually

Great job :D i thought this could be used for making ingame cinematics or video trainings aswell.
-
Yr last video made me think of making some scenario with hostages ( in hosp would be easyer I guess).
Group of hostages in helipad and the good guys try to deliver em :D Damn Im stoned :(
-
Since I'm using 3ds Max for the rendering of the final Product, I can render out in full HD.
Here is a 1080p@30

Looks pretty awesome, I hope you can go somewhere with it. Best of luck!

I've found a couple of movies, shot ingame and heavily edited, it's a mix of interesting ideas and fragmovies-like features. But there's a decent share of the first ones. If you jump back and forth you'll notice there are a few stories, i haven't had the time to watch them entirely, so i can't tell if there's a link between each story.
They were originally realeased in 2005/2006 so if i am correct they were using 2.5 or maybe 2.6 (it's about 1.20am so sorry if i am wrong :P )

The Uprising really set the standard back in the day.
PasCam was a huge step up in getting the footage you wanted.
My own Camera system I use to get content(Animations, weapon fire and weapon layout) is also a custom uscript.
The difference is that with PasCam you make the footage inside AA, in mine all the fun stuff happens in 3Ds Max.
The Uprising still blow my stuff out of the water when it comes to Directing and editing.

Here is some more destuction.

It's impressive! although for a sec i thought they were shooting him with an antitank weapon considering how fast the bridge was getting wiped out ^^

The Uprising...
Old times. Really old times... :( I'm missing it...
Some interesting battle scenes are also here:

My favourite: 3:00 :)

atm I'l 100% concentrating on updating the Assist Client.
but I'll keep you in mind when I get that feeling again(And that is just a matter of time)
-
very nice work ELiZ, congrats!
i like the idea from the old video, using several maps. maybe jump down bridge to another map, maybe mountain pass, shoot and fight, kill and die, awaken at hospital, next to a nurse :D . go on with at heliport to urban assault SW, going down, out from helicopter to fight again, up do heli again, flight away, crashes at SF CSAR, fight, kill them, get the pilot out there ...
would be nice to use some maps telling a story with.
