Official Video Link!

[Tbone]

Our first official video is ALMOST done! I think the only thing left is to adjust some audio levels in the final battle. I managed to get the NEW and IMPROVED version uploaded! I think you'll agree with me when I say the combat is MUCH better. Enjoy this newest version:

And as a bonus: Tour of Club Hel

Edit: We're redo-ing the whole movie, so check for the new and improved version soon!

I still think it's a bit choppy (not to diss you or anything).  What I will say is yes it is IMPROVED and the combat is agreeably better than it was.  The vid looks ace and the FA logo at the start looks tight

Sorry I wasn't there Friday, Saturday, or Sunday for the meetings / filming...my sister came over from California and I haven't seen her in just under a year so I wanted to spend as much time with her as possible...but in any event the movie was badass as hell...just alittle choppy when the whole fighting stuff started to happen...and does anyone else's sound start to fuck up when the whole church fight starts?  Like instead of hearing the punches and such I'd hear some kind of scratching noise...it's kinda weird...but otherwise it's a damn good movie Tbone!

Looking ALOT tighter, but ill agree with aaura about the combat being a bit choppy still

Apart from that it was amazing

I'm bugging out big time on it. The sound is glitchy but the slow parts are gone now. (Running WinAmp5)

Looks sharp.  The fight scene is better.

Can you imagine what it would look like without the lag ?

As some other guys heard, there's a lot of scratching or "popcorn" during the second song.  It seems to happen every time there a fighting move.

I think a few more tweaks and we're there.

yah kick ass, keep up the good work.

/points Hey! That's me! Ehh, anyways...

Still a bit choppy. What vid card and how much memory you have? I'd be willing to test out some scenes on my comp sometime. Much better though. I'm in class so don't have any audio, but will watch AND listen as soon as I get a chance to.
It's comming along great.

[Tbone]

Damn, wtf. Still choppy? You guys are picky! I think it's 100x better. If you have the old video, compare the two combat scenes.

I'm afraid unless we magically teleport everybody by pairs to individual rooms, the fighting is not going to get much smoother. I just watched it again and I don't notice hardly any choppiness. Definitely not enough to take away from the "cool" feel..

I'm aware of the church audio. I mentioned how I needed to adjust those levels up at the top. If you guys aren't satisfied with the final product, we can scratch it and someone else can give it a go.

[ArchNemesis]

Yeah it's WAY better than before, i can deal with the choppyness of it now but the one thing that bugs me is how the video appears to be going about 2 frames per second as you are leaving the building with the rest of us. other than that the rest of the choppyness is fine and really doesn't take off too much feel of the movie, of course it would be best to have it as least choppy as possible but to ask something like that would be ... well.. picky  for lack of a better word

[Fuse]

I in no way meant to discredit how cool the video is. It is indeed 100x better than the first go-arounds.
It would be fine as it is, but it's not perfect as far as the 4fps in some of the interlock goes. Like when the bad guy HJs off you see him crouch, then he disappears. I'm wondering if it's just too quick to capture the frame, or if there are a few missing.
Your right TBone, this is nit picking, and it still gets a thumbs up from me-just with some notice to detail.

[Tbone]

I think I'm done with this video once I edit the audio. The solution to the fps would be for me to lower some of my video settings, increase my FRAPS settings, and play around with that. We'll experiment with that for the next video...

haha i personally like grim's emote "speaknoevil" when tbone is fighting the exile in the church

looks great, alot better...boy that was fun filming at 2 am last night....(almost missed world civ quiz sooo tired) j/k j/k...

the only suggestion i haven tbone is at the very end when it says Matrix Online 2005 i think it pops up to fast and choppy. perhaps fade it? also perhaps a graphic instead of general font?

alright good stuff!

[Fuse]

yeah, that's a great emote.

I think the product we have now, minus the sound that T said he's working on, is far better than the original demo he gave us.  The lag/chop in the fight scene should be expected & is minimal when you consider how much data is flying around in that are while it's being filmed.

The fight scene in the VN vid is of 2 people - only 2.  We could be lagless too if you want to sacrifice the show of force in numbers that is the FA.  How many people were in the fight in the park, like 10?  It could easily be a Tbone video, but that has never been what we as the FA are about.  Granted, I'd like to have a flawless WB production to release to the world of MxO but the reality is that with ours & T's resources & Monoliths servers - This is what it is...& it's not bad at all.

I'm not even in the video, but on 56k like I am, it would make things worse so it's best that I stay clear during filming.  But I'd hate to see T put the umteen hours into the making of this for everyone to say, "Is that all I get?  You need to do this, & I would do that..." when all you get is what was probably every waking minute of T's freetime for the last week & a half.  Not trying to drop any seeds of anger into the forum here but I hate seeing someones work get picked apart...

That's all for my little rant...sorry for the angst in my post but I needed to vent.  4 people have posted since I started this...lol  The only constructive offering I can make for the next one is get out of the slums/barrens as it seems to be the most congested area and probably had a lot to do with the lag/chop.

Oh...and I like the video a lot, did I mention that?
