Somebody load up an older file and see!

Post by: B@tfinkV on August 23, 2007, 06:29:01 PM: one of the most important aspects is the engine sounds, imo. this will double the helpfullness of training films on the subject of throttle work.

and yes of course the camera is my favorite too:)

Post by: Fulmar on August 23, 2007, 06:48:48 PM: I would have loved to put engine sound in my last (my first real AH movie) movie, but the work around wasn't worth my time.

And a future note to people that do make movies with engine sound, turn it down. I can just see it being way louder than the music they put to the movie.

Post by: B@tfinkV on August 23, 2007, 06:53:14 PM: me too fulmar, spot on. sometimes i even have got so into it that i go and record 10 mins of sounds from the game and chop them up into the specific sounds i need. it takes for ever a true labour of love, and never ever sounds good enough. not so anymore.

just great!

The other guy's skins will only show up in 2.11 films and beyond. Older films did not record which skin was being used.
