Title: LCA 3rd Ftr. Grp. Formation & Air-to-Air Gunnery w/ TrackIR
Post by: Cobra516 on October 03, 2008, 03:18:25 AM
Put this together the other night, turned out to be a pretty cool film!  Wish I had more footage of B&Z's like the one OilSales & Strato do in this vid.

Right click/save-as - or stream.

YouTube version should be up in a bit - I think, YouTube seems to be broken at the moment :(

Haha, thanks guys.   TrackIR is too cool, it really adds a lot to the immersion and situational awareness. 

If you're tight on $, I'd reccomend FreeTrack - as that seems to be just as functional as TrackIR, but for a lot less $.  http://www.free-track.net/english/

I wish the AH film viewer didn't make everything look so "gamey" with the movements and all, the way the camera seems fixed to one angle on the plane and everything else rotates around it just doesn't look right.  However I really don't know how to setup shots with it - but I think just using in cockpit video with a TrackIR makes for the most realistic looking shots.

Right click on the link,  save,  walah

 Great movie Cobra
Oh, & Kermit, you're being far too modest. Your paradigm vid W/ TIR is one of the best I've seen. I wish you would make more like it.  :salute

At this point, all I can say is "if the video was made by LCA-it's A-Ok!" :rock  The funny thing is I keep looking through all these films just to see if I got pwn3d on camera.....
