The fighter's engines are weird colors. Also my eyes are burning. Stopped maybe 45 seconds in.

For the love of god*, 33 seconds was enough.

*Due to this being a family forum, I'm not gonna tell which one.


...Okay, time for constructive criticism rather than just shooting it down. I did watch it to the end but...

First question was, what was the point? It seemed like you were running mostly retail data with somewhat edited thrusters, which were rather... strange. The odd music playing on the background was about as far from FreeSpace 2 as could be and was drowned behind the FX sound. The missions jumped from one to another seemingly chaotically. They weren't even any memorable moments. And the flying kinda sucked (might be because of the 3rd person view...). :nervous: If it was just a test to capture, save into youtube-acceptable format (btw you might want to check the aspect ratio, it seemed a bit strange but I could be wrong) and upload test, it'd be all right, most people's first YouTube video isn't that noteworthy, but... why put that to display if you don't have anything to show that makes it at least one bit unique? We've all seen FS2 gameplay. The thruster colour mod doesn't really warrant 3 minutes of video, so... it wasn't very interesting. At all. Sorry.
There are three things that last forever: Abort, Retry, Fail - and the greatest of these is Fail.

 
it was just a test.

Criticisms aside, which missions were those captures taken from? I recognize the Great Hunt and that mission that dude released a while ago (the Hades and Argo one), but none of the rest. Which ones were they?

Honestly, 3 mins of an engine test is (like mentioned previously) 2:33 secs too long (there's no point).
I would edit your entry "My FReespace Vid" to include "Just a Simple Engine Effect Test" before people start making comments on your page there askign what's the point.
