Well, I was listening to music and playing Vendetta one day when this song came up as the CtC was going on. I thought to myself, "wow! This music really fits! I should put video to it." So I did. Well, okay... it wasn't that simple. First, it took fully 8 CtC convoys to get the footage that I wanted. Then it almost never went as I wanted it to: lots of Itani would attack, but they'd kill the transports in Sedina B8... Or none of them would attack. So eventually I had to blow the dust off my Itani Training Drone, and attack the convoy myself. Finally, I captured the video in 800x500 because I like widescreen format, but iMovie doesn't support it and smashed it to 720x480. Oh well. In any rate, here it is. I suggest that you download it and watch it, and not try to watch it in the browser window... It's 25.5 MB, so it's something of a hefty download, but I think it's worth it.

not bad, not at all. you can certainly fly the "camera" in interesting ways. What did you record with? you can fly, now we need a good choreographer. (holy cow, i spelt that right the first try)
w00t, im in the credits =D
Looks nice cp, but take my advice, never work with children, animals, or vendetta-online players. =D They never do what you want em to =D
Nice vid though, fits the music near perfectly =D

Looks great CP. The music fit, and I loved the closeups of the transport, didnt it hurt when they hit you in that dock tho?..hehe
wooo! I'm victim number one!
although, I wonder when this was, I was in a Rev C, and I didn't seem to be flying like I had rails. hm, maybe I was doing one of my "let's test something"-runs. well, it ended like it usually does. :-)

Very cool!
Nice, quite so :-)
Good job, CP.
Good job, CP.
Wow that was really kick but. Nice job, I wish I could do movies like that. What did you capture with?
it said in the credits. look at the end.
Thanks a lot, guys :)
yoda: yea.... There was this one really great run, and as the transport was leaving Sedina L2, UncleDave jumped through it and it died before it left the sector... I was like, "oh well... now I gotta wait another hour." There was other run where I set up this great shot for the final approach to the station and then serpentine attacked the transport...
mystic: they actually docked before they hit me
terjekv: it was January 27th. If I remember, you were attacking the transport, so I drew you off and it escaped. I remember wishing that I'd waited to fire that last salvo so the explosion would be closer to the center of the screen, so that's why I turned really quickly to try to catch as much of it as I could :).

Awesome. Good job, CrippledPidgeon.
Excellent. I liked it _very_ much :))
Excellent job.
I hope you have some other vids in pre-production, I'd love to see more. :D

What's the codec you use? My QuickTime, up to date, won't play it.
why avi? not want to include the mac users?
It's XVID. You probably need to download it from somewhere. I honestly don't remember where, though, because I haven't had any problems watching XVID encoded movies in a while.
why avi? It's pretty standard... xvid and divx both encode to .avi, and they're two of the most common codecs for video these days.
I, er.... don't know how to respond to the "not want to include the mac users?" question. If john watches the movie, then he'd know why I'm kinda curious he's bringing it up. Even if he just read my first post carefully, it might tell him something about why I'm confused by the fact that he thinks I'm discriminating against Mac users.

I'm on mac, worked fine for me, get the friggin DivX plugin.
I started to download the movie, when up popped a message that said
SOMETHING like: "Quicktime is missing a component it needs to display
this file. Unfortunately, it is not available on the Quicktime server..."
or something close to that. I've never seen that message before, and
sure enough, it would not play. No picture, no sound, nada. Any ideas?
