LOL.

I'm thinking November this year will be the earliest that 3.0 final is released, and at the rate we're going (2.1 final was supposed to be released 10/31/03) it'll be much, much, much later.

idk what map that is. I think it might be a custom map..or a new one.

And what was the relocation to computer lab about? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' />

douchebagatron · February 2005

dont be so sure of that scooty. prebuild 4 could be close to final.

Zek · February 2005

Beta 6 final, yes... We're in the middle of a beta test for 3.0, remember? There hasn't been an official client release since July of 2003.

Those rocks are ns_ayumi, outside the glass coridor I believe.(Well, I reconize the building)

douchebagatron · February 2005

ah. well consider this.

the ns team is working towards ns 3.0 final, not ns 3.0 beta 6. they WANT beta 6 to be final. that is why the are having the constelation test it while they didnt have consties test any other version. they plan on beta 6 being final.

OMG that is flipping awsome, it looks like he sped up alot of the scenes to make the vid faster. I wonder how he got the map textures to look so awsome tho.

Man if only the gameplay was really like that. All the time.

Id be interested to know if all thos scenes were captured during real games or just set up.

Isamil · February 2005

The map textures always look like that...

evidence · February 2005

you must have a better gfx card than me or something cause my textures do not look that good.

douchebagatron · February 2005

yes after watching it again (going on 8 times now) it does seem to look like the textures look a little touched up somehow. maybe im crazy though.

theclam · February 2005

He's probably got Anistropic Filtering and AntiAliasing going full blast, but I doubt he's actually used anything but the default textures/models/sprites. I think the textures look different because he touched up the video file to make the colors look better.

Some real, some set up, though I won't say which is which <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /> The prototype some staff members got to see months ago had some scenes that were more obviously set up, and we made sure to suggest changes so it'd be nicer when you all got to see it. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

Here's the key to it looking better.

Gamma < 3
Brightness < 2

Personally I find the video to be more exciting than the gameplay...But then again playing it is more fun....while comming ftw is the best of them all.

I just thought of somehting...is it possible to record Comm demos? If not then that should be worked on...

douchebagatron · February 2005

it has to be considering in the video there is a part from the comms perspective. i would really like it if you could spec the com.

That was most likely done with FRAPS (which makes more sense than a demo...)

Well damn, answered my own question (with help)

a_civilian · February 2005

It is possible to record a demo from the commander view.

wey · February 2005

First of all: thanks for the positive feedback, I'm glad you like it <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /> .

Just to clear some things up:
I did not use fraps, only the usual startmovie stuff. Commander demos can be recorded and viewed like all other demos (they just look ugly sometimes).
There were no changes made to any textures, models, etc. Just some "tricks" to boost image quality to max.
Due technical reasons, all scenes had to be recorded on my listenserver, so they're all 'faked' if you want to call it like that <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /> .
The credit for the soundtrack goes to David John (<a href='http://www.david-john.com/' target='_blank'>www.david-john.com</a>), who did an awesome work at the music. The video editing was done by me, players are from my old ns clan (greets to Terra, Bios, bp, Nitek, omni, Angelus), and the dozens of grammar corrections in these few words were done by the ns team (Nem, Zunni, ..) <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /> .

In case you can't use the Jarhedz link, try <a href='http://esports.ampednews.com/?page=downloads&folder=1047' target='_blank'>Amped</a>, or keep an eye on FilePlanet, FileShack & co., though they are apparently not yet up there.

Wow, this one looks even better than the last trailer I saw.
Very nice work indeed. Good job for those who worked on the trailer.

I wish my NS would look like that......<img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' />

EDIT : It seems that is a new change for the GL, or it's speedh4x. Dunno. It's sorta misleading with the b5 patch's GL firing so slowly compared to the trailer.

Snidely · February 2005

Beautiful. A job well done.

lillbrorsan · February 2005

Really nice work, truly amazing!
