Clan FJA Posted April 23, 2015 Author Posted April 23, 2015 Made with Movie Maker XP... don't laugh please Click on the picture to watch the video Watch BftR Trailer 1
Rayce Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 What's there to laugh at? The trailer is awesome and so is the mod as a whole.
Ping Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Looks interesting, but the quality of the trailer is atrociously bad. I'm a bit surprised that in 2015, people still haven't figured out that there are excellent alternatives to third-party video capture programs (and there really is no excuse for using third-party capture programs for anything but streaming to begin with). If I managed to capture constant 30 fps footage back in 2004 on the highest settings with a high res, maxed out FSAA etc on a PC that could barely run jka with textures on, then you guys can do the same. You've put so much effort and work into that mod, I'm sure taking the time to do a bit of research on video capturing and then bringing out a trailer that does justice to the mod would be an excellent idea.
Clan FJA Posted April 24, 2015 Author Posted April 24, 2015 thanks you the problem is not the program, the problem is my computer (old XP with a graphic chipset for desktop which has difficulties to run games). My JKA can not run higher than 640x480 with a capture program (and 800x600 without... yes, in 2015, some people play in 800x600 )
