I found this on Went'z channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhJckdJ3oQU
I then went to the fsport media VPs and I found an Ancients 4 cutscene to hopefully get a better resolution copy, but it was only 55 seconds long instead of like 3 minutes. Any idea what happened there? I seek the 3 minute version if possible.
-
The section of the cutscene after the 55 second mark is not an official cutscene. It is a fan-made cutscene by IceyJones. Here is the release thread (https://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=50977.0) and here is the WIP thread (https://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=50550.0), although his contributions don't start until midway through page 3.
The original download link is broken, but you can find it mirrored here on the FSMods archive (http://fsmods.net/download_111.html).

Much appreciated, I now have .avi and .ogg files in hand. It now appears Wentz' upload is in fact a concatenation of the video in the mediavps and this. I have an additional ask, do you know if his version of the audio went anywhere? This is definitely the video but is definitely not the same audio.
-
I think that was custom-created for the merged version. He is still in contact with the voice actress, and he composes music, so I believe all of that audio is new.
-
I contacted IceyJones a while back, asking if he still had the files. Said they were on an old PC in the cellar... who knows, maybe we will get a re-render eventually?
-
The biggest problem i had with the IceyJones expansion were the upside down Chronos freighters :nervous:

I never understood this problem to be honest. Up vs down? In space? And it made total sense to me that these vessels could fly belly-up (given the prevalence of anti-grav tech in the setting) to dock to cargo more quickly.
