We've just completed the gameplay movie:

GAMEPLAY MOVIE

This is approx 45MB. Note that it's probably better to right-click this and choose save-as rather than try to play it within your browser.

Any Mac users out there (you know who you are, oui!) might not be able to play this file as it's encoded using Windows Media format. If you need it, you can get a Mac Media player from Microsoft that will play wmv's:

http://www.microsoft.com/mac/otherproducts/otherproducts.aspx?pid=windowsmedia

The intention is to post this movie on multiple gaming sites..

I'm looking into encoding this as a divx avi also, on Jim's recommendation. Jim: you must de-lurk one of these days buddy ;-)

Also.. youtube might be a good place to put it, with keywords such as 'car crash' and 'mad max'... any other keywords suggestions?

The high-quality version (45MB) is:

The low-quality version (25MB) is:
http://www.dark-wind.com/movies/DarkwindGameplayMovieNov2006_low.wmv


Please don't post this anywhere 'big' yet: inside forums is fine, though. I want to make sure to get the press release right when this is submitted to more 'official' places like game website blogs, etc.

I'm not sure that you can post that movie to other forums and not expect it to potentially get onto a game media website.. once the cat's out of the bag you can't get it in again

Yeah, but surely some low-key player-forums won't do any damage?

I'll put a blog together for garagegames later today and post it with that, then I'll tackle some of the games websites. Vikking has a good lead on some Mac gaming sites..

@comp : We don't use microsoft processors, we're using Intel® ones, and it's not related to Microsoft ! ;) (By the way, I can say that you're using a mac like system... 'cause Windows is simply a cheap rip of Mac OS ;))

Dling the movie, good job sam ! :)

What was better about it, I think you mean the quality that the gameplay was captured at? I used fraps, it seems to be a lot better than camstudio.

The other thing you need to do is capture at the exact resolution you want the final movie to be at, in order to stop any conversion being needed. That's why you heard me complaining about playing the game in a 720x576 window.

You also need to capture at the same framerate as the final movie you want, for the same reason.

Also, Kirsty did a great job of the editing/production :rolleyes:

less complicated?
comp112, don't make me laugh, I got a serious cold and I might cough endlessly...
You should give Mac Os X a real look try before saying such things. Don't talk about things you don't know; that's a good motto.


Well let close this thread closed now.

There's no big difference as far as I can see. Mac OS looks nicer and has a few slicker/more user-friendly features, but Windows OS gives more flexibility to the user. These differences are very minor. It's important for me to support both, since both are used by game players!

my friend commented that the driving control panel was in the way of the view some of the time when watching the cars which gave me an idea, perhaps you could make the panel automatically fade to an alpha of 25% when the mouse is not over it
