You need DivX 4. I suggest you download and install the Nimo Codec pack. This installs just about every codec that could be wanted. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

David of Mac: It was game models. At least, that's what the devs said at the time.
Sam: You got the order partly wrong. Your 3rd and 4th ones should be swapped around. The ingame footage trailer was the last trailer to be released. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

I designed the scenes I did with the show models, which were then replaced by the game models when it went to final render. That's why my AVI's have the high res look, where the Shadow Threat looks more gamey...
IIRC, the Shadow threat trailer was initially done, rendered and edited with show models. We were later told (like a few days after completion) to literally re-do it with game models. It took a lot of time. It made me mad. No one ever listens to me. That's all I'm going to say.

They wanted it redone because they originally couldn't see what I already knew- that we should have moved on from show-like imagery to game-like imagery. Once they saw it, the light bi\ulb went on. Like I said, no one listens to me...

The one with the Star Fury and the Brikari (Green Dog Chew toy) ship and the Centauri fighter and Primus was an "In Game" video capture.
Ah what fun it was to do the animation for some of the Shadow Threat sequence...
