Hmmm, I've been working on the main halls mostly, but the pilot model is coming along

Ever consider using live actors for the intro cutscene?

Just no.

Aw come on, there's just two of them, and they can lip-sync to the original audio.
I hear Mark Hamil and Carrie Fisher are available.

(I'm just joking at this point, honest)

Hugely interesting! considering that's the only part of the game which was not upgraded until recently!

Also, I was wondering, at some point there was some talk a few years ago about a lucifer vs station tombaugh scene... is it still on or has the status changed?

IceyJones made an attempt to do that cutscene, too. There were a few shots already existing that looked beautiful (some Apollos on patrol doing some funny manoeuvres because the pilots were bored, for example :) ). But he got occupied by rl IIRC

OMG. The CB Ani featuring the Lucifer fly-by with over 9000 Scorpions launching from its fighterbays is one of the most memorable moments in FS1 for me. If anything was made which featured something like that, I would... probably send you money.

Have you played Port 3.2? I did the remake of that ANI.

Yes, I have (and thank you :D). What I meant was in reference to the Lucifer vs Tombaugh idea, like it would be awesome if in a cutscene we saw Tombaugh swarmed with fighters or something. But yeah, just idle wishful thinking. And by the way, all your work so far is awesome.  :yes:

 :wtf:

Then use one of the mirrors... but I can almost guarantee that's a false negative.

Yeah, Mediafire should be a perfectly-legit hosting source, unless some sort of malware banner ad managed to sneak itself onto their network.  What security program gave you the notification?

That was you? What a stupid question, of course it was you - They're awesome, it was such a treat to see newer, bigger briefing ani's during my last playthrough, thanks a heap!

If it's not too much trouble, could you please update the OP with the various file sizes of the videos? I'm currently bored and don't mind doing the research, since you were so kind enough to make them in the first place :D

Ancients 1 - 480p (12mb) - 720p (30mb)   - 1080p (98mb)
Ancients 2 - 480p (11mb) - 720p (30mb)   - 1080p (91mb)
Ancients 3 - 480p (2 mb)  - 720p (4mb)     - 1080p (12mb)
Ancients 4 - 480p (64mb) - 720p (114mb) - 1080p (170mb)
Ancients 5 - 480p (6mb)   - 720p (13mb)   - 1080p (33mb)
End Game - 480p (56mb) - 720p (75mb)   - 1080p (121mb)

Also, will these ever be covered by FSOInstaller? I'd be getting all the 1080s now >:D

Thanks!

Done.

NOTE: I have not heard of anyone yet being able to play the 1080s in-game.

Ahh hehe, is this due to some inadequate code, Ogg at 1080 or a 1080 in general issue?

Additionally, I'm an idiot, due to my laptop maxing out at 1366x768 :|

Has something to do with FSO, just not sure what... they play fine in most external media players though.
