Most Excellent AH2 Guncam Footage!
« on: September 25, 2004, 01:11:17 PM »
...

 When looking from this perspective.. AH2 is really good! If only better explosion graphics, hit sprites, and etc  eye candy..

 One can only hope!!

 I know this belongs in the Films and Screenshots sections, but the quality of the gun cam footages made by Sanjini, our non-MA squad member, is pretty impressive and I thought I might share it with you guys. :)

 Enjoy!

HOLY CRAP!!    That is the best AH gun cam footage I have ever seen.     Any layman would take it as authentic footage, and even experts need a second look.

My question:  How do you get these views, with out the cockpit art in the way?   Is it a feature of the film viewer?   I haven't played around much with that....

Honestly, I have no idea how he does that.

 Some interesting points are;

1) when viewed in guncam speed, the AH bombers definately don't seem 'weak' at all!

2) the 'white glob' hit sprites look pretty natural in black and white guncams. This is probably due to the fact that since camera technology wasn't very good in those days, light sources such as bright flashes(incendiary, or HE) tend to get overexposure - and thus, look like AH hit sprites. Ofcourse, that's what it'd look like in films - not necessarily real life.

3) the fires and explosions, definately need some eye-candy upgrades! :)

It works if you do that.  For some reason the .wmv isn't prompting it to be launched by media player when you just click on it.

To be quit honest...that was great!

Part of me feels a little guilty because it does look realistic.
