Indeed a well-made video, using After effects. And i see he has the same "teacher" like me, when it comes to learning After Effects... ;) But anyway, all my energy for a new movie will be put to good use for "Project 10", a movie for DCS: A-10C which i've been planning for about 5 months now. :)

Too demanding how? You know you can also play using the "arcade mode", right? Learn stuff that way, then advance to "Simulation" mode.

Looking good! ;)

Nice shot shaggy, one of the best i've seen!

For the 2 above posters: Both the graphics engine AND the mission editor *WILL* recieve updates as DCS expands. But you simply can't expect to have it all for each release.

A-10C will not use a "new" game engine, but rather a very much UPDATED one.. :)

The "producers notes" will have a more professional feel over them now though, as i have made a small "intro movie" before each note, as requested by Matt. It's a small "improvement", but it helps sell the fact that, yes, "the movie you are about to see is a "how to" movie." :)

Sounds like a shot to use for the next movie. ;)

Correct, you can now land on trains again, just like i did in the 2 "Fun with trains" videos.

Nice ;)

Do you have any experience with making movies? If i was to give you a task, and i say: Create a promotional video (like a TRAILER), showing the best aspects of this simulator, and please make it a little dramatic, so it gives some impact. Sound effects, i leave that up to you. If you can do this without music, and keep me entertained, i will say no more. But hey, on the side, i'll make a movie as well, only WITH music, let's see which one people will enjoy most. ;) Music is a part of movies, it's just how you use it that matters.

For me, sometimes, music is half the movie. Before making a movie, i look for good music. Then i make the movie accordingly. If you're doing a story based movie, it's the other way around.

It's in the works ;) And i actually spent TIME finding a good music track for this movie and editing different pieces to sound like 1, so if you dont like the music, im gonna hunt you down, and throw water at you :D :P

I haven't personally tried it myself, but it should be possible to just replace the 3D model of the KA-50 with some other model, like the Apache or whatever. This was already done in previous Black Shark movies by "Supervasya". (correct?)

Well, don't know about other movie makers out there, but i hardly doubt you will ever see a movie from me without music in it. Unless it's story based of course (and again, depends on what genre the movie goes under).

Thanks, and that website, well...it has never really been up, though i began working on it. No idea when it will be up and running, i havent even thought about the website for like 7-8 months.

Cool ;)

Um, did you happen to miss DCS: Black Shark, or...? :P

Correct, i added those clouds using "After Effects".

Funny thing is, when Black Shark got delayed a couple of times, many people got extremely dissapointed and (obviously) someone whined about it. But when they finally got their hands on Black Shark, they went "Man, thank you so much for releasing such a polished product!:D". So again, regarding this patch/update, it WILL be worth the wait :)

I'm assuming ED/Matt has got'n a few e-mails where people asked if they could join the beta team or something along those lines.

Hey, maybe it's time for another "Crimean tour" or something? :D

Also minor detail, but i miss seeing bugs getting smashed against the windshield as well. ;) Some things aren't that important to model. At least not yet. ;)

I don't know, as this would be up to ED, as putting it on TV costs some money.. But anyway, back on topic, regarding the A-10.. ;)

If people weren't able to use music for their movies, you'd have to sue 90% of the stuff on youtube. The thing is, the movies i have made that uses music from Hans Zimmer/Immediate Music etc, i don't have "permission" from the producers to include the music in my movies, but on the other end, my movies are FREE to watch and download. Neither myself or ED gets money from the movies. I make movies as a hobby for now, and i enjoy it. It just happens to be that i make movies for ED, and whenever i use music that i don't own myself, or have 100% copyrights "ownership", i put in a disclamer in the movie, and give credit to the creators. My Black Shark movie "Black Shark overview" used music that was in the "public domain", meaning that the music could be used for whatever purpose we wanted as long as the author got credit in the movie. But this "copyright" discussion could go on forever, but for now, we're playing it safe. Oh and btw, a guy i have on msn actually MET with Hans Zimmer, and he showed my movie "Project 50" to him, and he watched the entire thing and he said he liked it. I used the music in "a good way" i think he said.
