Warzone 2100 Forums

Hey there guys i've began work on a short intro for WZ2100.

But i'm going to need some feedback before I go any further and also some help.

OK let me explain what is going on in this video... The render test run

1. Imagine that green block is the wireframe of the current wz2100 logo like nexus's head in the fmv's.

The camera moves towards the wireframe.

2. The wireframe stops spinning, then the camera retreats, stops, then looks up sharply and watches a giant metal press come down and slams onto some metal which appeared whilst you were looking up.

3. The press raises, the camera peer in again to reveal the completed wz2100 sign in all it's metal glory

Insert many cool sfx/textures/models here

Comments pls?

Also krzzzt is it possible for me to use your blender model in my video?? I would rather spend time animating than trying to recreate what you've already made. Prefer 3ds max mesh if you can export to that or lightwave thanks! Give you a non-gay hug if you do xD

do it!! lets see even a wire frame version of your idea. what you have so far looks interesting.

of course, well the new hq texture has an image from cgtextures.com but we're asking them for permission at the moment..

I'll start doing a more accurate version tonight as you can see from the post time of last nights

Begining of an intro

It was just a very quick mock up took less that 20 minutes to setup
Damn camera path took me the longest as the camera kept trying to roll on the last vertex of the path spline very annoying bug

Oh and Terminator your 3DS logo model looks very nice.. Mind I have a play with it?

O/c full credit will be given where due! (I hate people who steal things )

.

looks promising. maybe one of the resident musicians will be inspired to write a soundtrack. unless
you're a musician or have a mix already in mind. i'm already hearing some accompanying music
in my head.

.

I have no music atm, but feel free to suggest/create
But only do something rough so that when the anim is finished, you can sync up the events to the music

hokai so i've done another test render

this time with a wireframe and textured logo

Pointers anyone? I need some more suggestions as i'm not really that good on my own but I will try my best to accomodate peoples requests

EDIT: Credits to Terminator for use of his model

.

die-cast mold, molten metal pour, acid-wash finish.... particle FX forthcoming, perhaps ?
