Updated the test a little: http://www.followtheangel.org/tbone/eyetest.gif

Someone whose Premiere Pro is working, tell me if animated gifs work in video.

I have some info about modding your useropts.cfg file. This allows you to have stuff like...a first person mode (by changing the camera minimum distance), you con control the heighth the camera is from the ground, the speed the camera zooms in or out, etc. Anyway, here's my entire useropts.cfg so you can see the camera settings, and anything else you may wish to experiment with in your own. Well, enjoy:

No, they asked me to put it here for them to see, so we could film some of the stuff better ingame because of the camera controls. So...I posted them up here

heh i just deleted premiere like 2 weeks ago. hmm i still had the install file to.

Yea, you can put .gif files into the film when edited in Premiere. You just have to make sure that you put multiple copies of the gif into the area so that it looks like it's looping; I've tried it.

P.S. WOW, that is an awesome lyric Ket. I didn't know you liked Atmosphere. BADASS!!!!!!!!!

[Avzeke (Khr0n1k)]

lyric? what lyric?

[Anonymous]

I didnt catch it either

"How many times must you prove you're an Angel? How many more demons do you have to strangle?
How much longer must you remain in this dream before I finally figure out if you're insane or a genuis?"

It's the chorus from the song LoveLife - Atmosphere. It's an awesome hip hop group and that's a badass song. Just a compliment. I don't know if you changed recently or what but I just noticed it. Great Job. YOU ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kayda, minchardist doesn't work to creat FPV. Even when changing camera physics, it won't zoom in past your head. Best we could do was put the camera directly over the head.

[Anonymous]

Yeah, you have to put it just above the character's head. Another thing you might want to try, is putting it beneath the character's head. Since you have male RSI's, and don't have to worry about breasts that are so big they generate their own gravitic field, it might be possible

I would love to get envolved in this whole excursion, Half Life 2 would be a perfect medium for the out of matrix scenes, of course you would have to be able to create modles and skins, of which I have never done......but I have created a few maps, I might be able to help out in that aspect.

[Shouousan]

Anything that I can do, I will do, Just send me the info about the big five and I'll do my best.

[Anonymous]

I will help with anything, this sounds like its going to be a masterpiece in your guys' hands. And if you need a character with a little 13 year old's voice... I'm your man!
