So many good points being addressed on the forums lately. Much serious discussion as to some of the real issues facing us all in game.

Actually it is WAY to serious. Eye bleeding levels of nerd angst and tears.

Let Lymuv fix the boo boo. Show her where the bad DEV touched your build!

And in the meantime, watch this Video! It has things about Chroniton Beams, Battle Cloaking, Fireworks, and the newest....

Most Sooooper Secret.....

Mind Bendingest Console of all!!

    Thank you for reminding me why games are important and why I love this one. Lymuv is just a short dyslexic hop from Myluv.

    And drunk! Rep-reeee-zent in the Galaxy!

    i think thats a jab at my, and others position that battle cloak under fire and you gunny die 1000%!

    but theres nothing wrong with battle cloaking wile running.... but if you battle cloak wile not escaping thats when you will be lucky to survive, if anyone's paying attention to you.

    Like its my job.



    But seriously, none of this is serious. I think we've ALL been in a spot where we find the Excuse Generator 3000 has auto posted something to zone chat that in retrospect we wished it hadn't.

    Even worse is when the "Tell Console MK XII" gets equipped........all to common....


    And drunkdontmeshootim, I for sure will tune up my BOP.

    Who knows, maybe I'll get lucky!

    To be fair that other 4 nacelle ship was meant to be a Jr Love Boat in ST Canon :P

    Where as my 4 nacelle wonder, was built to beat people up and take their lunch money. :eek:

    Indeed at the end of the day we should treat this like Valhalla, and rise up together and drink as one to our battles against each other that day!

    Or something all warrior like.

    As long as I get a beer.

    And some Nachos.

    Cause hey, without those other noobs on our PVP map, dere is no PVPs!!

    What do you use to record and edit? Is it there one method that's better for the inexperienced user?

    I purchased a copy of fraps. Well worth what they charge for it. Just reviewing your own play goes a long way towards helping you in any game.

    I use windows live movie maker. It is a free download.

    Fraps files can be huge. Many huge files do NOT play well with movie maker. Start smaller.

    Save your project OFTEN. I use 2 saves. Seriously there is nothing worse than losing hours of work because you didn't save. There is an undo function, but sometimes it just isn't robust enough.

    When you first start up movie maker you will see that videos you load display as a sort of 'film track' on the right hand side of the screen. You can size this so that one 'row' of film equals an approximate second count. I use about 20 seconds. This helps me to visualize how much time I have for captioning and handles at the start and end of each sequence.

    Add in a title scene. You won't be typing in the title yet, but you need to KNOW what it will be. If you don't know what it will be stop now. Even an IDEA of what it will be is fine. Otherwise what is this video about? And don't say "PVP". This is what will give you the direction you need to actually edit the raw video.

    Load the files in the order you intend them to be viewed.

    Add in a credit scene.

    Delete the captions for title and credit. (they come last)

    Use edit to simply cut away the junk. Save about five seconds before, and after the 'action' shot to allow for transitions. Handles, if you care to call them such. If at all possible try to keep all the scenes of equal length. If a scene is longer, just chop it up.

    Look at the run time of your video. If it isn't under 15 minutes, go back and make it so.

    Go to the first video scene after the title and add a transition. Pick ONE and just apply it to all your clips. Pick one that is easy on the eyes.

    Add MUSIC. If you are using multiple tracks start at the beginning and work to the end. There are music tools for fade in, fade out, volume, and set end. USE them. You will need fade out if You use more than one score. Normally you wouldn't need fade in unless you were starting from the middle of a recording.

    Now add your captions. Each scene should have one. 7 seconds is a good time for two lines of text. Standouts or exclamations can of course be less, or More depending on what you are trying to communicate. If you can't think of something to say, guess what? You must not need that scene. Try not to cover up what you are trying to show. Harder than it sounds.

    That is it. Review it for errors. Save it as a movie. Upload it as private. Review the playback. Check all the settings and info. Change status to Public.

    Oh. If you DON"T do it in the above order, you will find that nothing is where u put it. If you add captions and then try to transition it all the captions move out of position. Etc, Etc.



    yah. long post. but thought some tips might help.


    Cheers.

    EDIT: after posting this and reviewing it for clarity, i thought to myself...."self, making videos, piece of cake"
