Neat find

 

[SGT Razor]

Does anyone have the ability to use this? If so, PM me, and Wrigley and I will film something and send you the footage.

I'm going to begin this immediately. Explosions, plasma grenades, plasma bolts, gunfire etc... need some footage!

I had these short clips showing effects. I just need to find an animation of bullets flying out of the side of a gun. So I can add the shell ejection to the clips, Also this is a single clip of a muzzle flash, if I layerd multiple flashes over eachother they would look better.

P.s muzzle flashes need to be bigger in this

P.p.s ignore how fat I look here.

P.p.p.s Ignore the last clip and the credits......

P.p.p.p. i get all my naimation clips from detanation films they rock!

Yeah ive just noticed thanx adam. Only problem i had before was that they were floating in mid air-not flying outwards.... But I did some research, and I figured out I can use a transition effect to move them.

il have a new vid up in 30mins if this works.

Dudes,

ive done this short clip in FXlab. Muzzle flare, smoke and sgell ejection.

took about 20 mins to put together but faster after preactice. Nice software but not too pricy.

LMK your thoughts.

You need to save it as a different format, try Avi. Or Wmv. Cuz all im getting is sound.

Its working for me smilie.

Have you got the DivX video codec installed? According to my tools that is what the video uses.

It works fine I just cant see the video, I can hear the audio. Can you upload it to youtube?

 

[Sinjinsmiley]

I'll leave the redistribution to gbscout but the non-video displaying sounds like a codec problem so I would check you have the necessary ones installed.

I use this which tends to solve all my codec problems before they appear
