Title: SFC3 animated movie (trailer, pts 1&2)
Post by: kephren on May 02, 2005, 05:04:04 pm
I am 27 minutes into a 45 minute machinima project using EF2 and SFC3, as a preview to a two-game mod.  I'm intent  to release the first part (10 minutes) on May 14, one day after the last episode of Enterprise.  The second part (12 minutes) will be released in mid-July.   The third part (which is 50 percent complete) will be released in August and the final part in September or October.  The link below (and screen captures) are from a mock theatrical trailer that I composed from the currently-completed segments.

If there is interest in this community, I will be happy to describe how I've combined the output from the two computer games and mixed them into a cinematic format. Comments welcome at BorgWarGameMod@aol.com

The files cannot be streamed, though.  You must download them.

Looks cool but I couldn't get the avi to load from its location. My browser just kept trying to connect. drat

The files can't be streamed.  They must be downloaded.  I just tested the downloads and they worked fine.  Also, the URLs are posted elsewhere (e.g. macinima.com) and nobody is having problems, so far as I know.  Could be that I'm getting all sorts of traffic, though, which I guess will mean a big ISP bill this month.

Right click link and select Save As in IE (keeps Windows Media or default AVI player from launching and trying to stream).

Hope that this helps.
