| Hi people, as far as I know, this is the first real UT3 frag movie
| with real frags and well known high skilled players! I have to say,
| we had different plans with Rypel for this contest, but we couldn't
| make them real, so I bring you at least this vid.
| Well, I thought UT3 was the perfect engine for moviemaking and
| it indeed has good potential, but there are still basically no tools
| except the RypelCam and client-side demos ain't working (even getting
| footage was kind of problem xD). But RCam is luckily the only tool
| UTer needs to make a movie. The other problem was recording footage,
| because once again, there wasn't any "dumpframes" tool. But hey,
| we have Rypel :>, who coded some sort of dumpframes. One needs uberpc
| in order to record in HD, because it doesn't record at stable FPS.
| Welll, I don't have such a PC, so you might find this quality a bit
| worse than you expected, but I did my best and think that it's not
| that bad .).
| Anyway, creation of this movie took like 2 weeks (I made a log of
| my progress, because I was curious how much time I was gonna spend
| on it:) ).
| This movie was released in three versions:
| - 720p x264 - HQ
| - 720p XviD - MQ
| - 400p XviD - LQ
|
| Special thanks go to all people who sent demos and helped me with
| this project in any way .).
| Oh btw, do not forget to check out #ut3.coverage for the best UT3
| coverage, video streams and shoutcasts!
| That's probably all you need to know, enjoy watching this UT3 movie
| and thanks for downloading!
|
|
===== FAQ =====
|
| Why there are no in-game sounds in this movie?
| - Because there are nearly no sounds in server-side demos
|
| Why are weapon models sometimes visible and sometimes hidden?
| - Because weapon models were bugged that time I was recording,
| so I decided to hide those, which were not displayed properly.
|
| I can't see video in mp4 version, just sound.
| - Try to watch it in VLC player (http://videolan.org/vlc).
|
| This movie sux, how can I contact you and tell you?
| - I'm always at #ut3.coverage
|
| Why is it short?
| - Not enough footage, not enough time, not enough songs. Pick one. xD
|
| Why is there Xan in UT3 movie?
| - Xan rox and so does UT1.
|
| I can't think of any other question now, have a nice day .)

dling...

though too bad that those who would make ut3 movies (like me for ex:P) cant do it, cause there is no dumpframes in the game...
still, lookin forward to this movie :)

and i hope rypel will make a fully functioning dumpframes-something ;)

Nice movie. Can't see why u said the quality might be bad. I thought it was good. Nice frags. Some nice editing and camera work :) Gave it a 8,5 (which shows as a 8 :s) for editing and creativity and a 9 for frags and quality. Good job.

Never played Ut3 yet, looks nice though.

I like the look of the movie, quality is good, nice content to show off the game.

Some nice effects and decent intro, nice credits.

Didn't like the capture the flag part with the voice+real world footage, broke the flow and annoyed.

Nice vid, cant wait for a longer UT3 movie.

 Dude, it's more about not working client-side demos ^^ ... that's why the content isn't that great.

i wish that the gothica servers from ut3 actually had clientside demo recording on it since then my megakill with shear bio would have been recorded and that would've been fun lol :P and some more shit obviously.

Can't wait for clientside demo recording t o finally be here, I know some people working on it but they said it will take a looooong time to finish it due to working on it in their free time... Is rypel working on it too? Or others??

N1 movie wiza, you should've won the contest in my eyes, nuff said! xD
