<div class="IPBDescription">Accepting requests</div>I've been having fun playing in the Cinematic Editor. Considering the amount of free time I have plus the many maps under construction, does anyone have requests?

Somehow lost over half of this post. I think I have re-entered everything.

Completed items so far...
<a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/HiveIdleLvl1.zip" target="_blank">Hive, Idling.</a>
<a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/InfantryPortalActive.zip" target="_blank">Infrantry Portal, Spinning</a>
<a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/PhaseGateIdle.zip" target="_blank">Phasegate, Active</a>
<a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/Cam.zip" target="_blank">Camera, 90 degree sweep</a> Video <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/CamUni.mp4" target="_blank">here</a>.
<a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/DropshipHoversLit.zip" target="_blank">Hovering dropship with lights</a> (fixed for now)
Video <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/Dropship.mp4" target="_blank">here</a>.
Will have to remake the file to add flames since a bug in the editor prevents me from adding them. Not going to do that untill after the games release.

<a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/main_menu_exo.zip" target="_blank">Exo in the main menu</a> Video <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/main%20menu%20exo.m4v" target="_blank">here</a>. Will add more to it later.
<a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/main_menu_gorge.zip" target="_blank">Gorge in the main menu</a> Video <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/gorge%20menu.m4v" target="_blank">here</a>. (Edit: broken after a patch. Will likely have to remake.) Will add more later.

<a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/cc%20hijack.m4v" target="_blank">Short movie</a> I made in the cinematic editor. A bug in the editor would appear to have skipped the inclusion of the audio.

    Just wanted to officially say thank you for the ones that you did for me for co_assault.

    If you have time an active phase gate would be awesome too.

    Thanks again.

    Updated co_assault if you care to see your handy work in action.

    Yeah cinematics for a rave room. Would be awesome.

    Maybe the generic door jamming against something in the way? Spinning asteroids on the drift?
    I could use brainstorming help on how to make my sun look more active and boiling

    +1 for spinning asteroids


    Also I'd love an active forcefield effect - like a green or blue force field that would be inside a docking bay to seperate space and air - you know the typical starwars thing :) I guess similar to an active phase gate

    edit - also would absolutley love some flowing water - kind of like the water fall, but not so giant..... something like 128x512 maybe

    hovering shuttle with steam and stuff could be useful to have :) but its nothing specific i need at the moment, but good to know you offer this :)

    <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/asteroid.zip" target="_blank">Here</a> is (half) an asteroid. Before I make more (complete) asteroids. Does anyone know the best way from a performance standpoint to implement multiple cinematic objects? i.e does a mapper place lots of individual cinematic asteroids or large single cinematic?

    A static Dropship with active bottom thrusters, headlights (pointlights), red gun light, but landing gear is deployed and the missile enclosures are shut. I cannot change the last two things. I'll create a 'floating' dropship, and dust clouds at a later date.

    I don't need these but would use them if they were made and i'm sure they would make a great collection.

    Sercurity Camera doing a scanning sweep.
    Search Lights doing a sweep
    An Oozeing slime drooping from the ceiling would be awesome.
    A Spider building a web able to place it in corners and doorways.

    any or all of these would be great for atmosphere.

    There is already a force field effect (just added in 216)? materials\effects\forcefield_tile.material that can be applied to surfaces .

    Currently having issues with Cinematic Editor with the latest build. Can't do much before something stops working correctly.

    Basic security camera. 90 degree sweep. <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/Cam.zip" target="_blank">Cam</a>
    Basic light sweep, 90 degree sweep. <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/light%20sweep.zip" target="_blank">Light Sweep</a>

    edit: Didn't do a good enough job with the light. Removed it. Will fix it later.

    Thanks for these nice additions. Perhaps it's an idea to catalog all your creations in the first post, perhaps with a youtube video showing them? That would be awesome, and convenient.

    Keep up the good work!

    Awesome Sphinxter.

    Thanks heaps. I'm sure those will start popping up in all sorts of maps.

    Will work them into mine thats for sure :D

    Updated the Dropship. Edited the main menu cinematic a little to try and make the start screen more interesting.
  • SphinxterSphinxter Join Date: 2012-08-02 Member: 154543Members
    Setting up a youtube account is such a drama. I'll have to work that out later. For now, I've posted links to videos hosted on my dropbox account. They play in your browser with flash player similar to youtube.
  • SphinxterSphinxter Join Date: 2012-08-02 Member: 154543Members
    Added another main menu cinematic.
    It would seem my videos no longer wish to play in the browser. Will have to fix that.

    Hi Sphinxter
    I wonder if you are willing to help us get a nice BG for Combat mod? we have an idea for what we want if you are interested we can talk more on steam?
  • SphinxterSphinxter Join Date: 2012-08-02 Member: 154543Members
    <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/95351159/onos%20rider.gif" target="_blank">Onos riding.</a> Hopefully someone will mod this one day.

    It is as I had feared. Some cinematics have become corrupt from game patches. I'll have to fix and reupload.
    Best example of this is the compatibility cinematic included in the game (gorge reveal).
