Haven’t done much on my blog lately, but here is an update:
After 3 years spending time and efforts with helping people on the official UrbanTerror forums on technical issues and other sort of questions. They have decided to make me a forum moderator.
A new UrbanTerror video that i made as show case for high frame-rate capture application: to gain motion-blur effect due to frames-blending. This source video was captured at 1250 fps. Using frames blending in Sony Vegas, down-sampled to 60fps video. High frame-rate capture is also ideal for good quality slow-motion (stretched) footage editing.
Some focus on this video editing was to work with color curves to get the vibrant, cartoon-ish look. Also short footage cuts to keep the video dynamic.
AK-103 is the most powerful automatic assault rifle in Urban Terror. It is being somewhat under-used in the game due to its low rate-of-fire and high recoil and spread. But used properly, it makes fragging targets looks easy and effortless.
This config is meant for demo review and video capturing.
This config requires ioUrbanTerror that comes with UrT4.1 or newer (e.g. 27′s VBO builds). This is a mandatory requirement as the older clients has config limited to 16kb.
Video capturing is a CPU and disk intensive tasks. Make sure you have decent hardware for this task! ioUrbanTerror comes with build-in avi capture which is better than using FRAPS. I suggest you use this build-in feature. Infact, i refuse to support anyone that comes asking for help when they are using FRAPS. Good luck on your own there.
A good config is only a minor part of video making. Just having good quality captures isn’t all there is to it. Put some effort in video editing and apply proper color correction does a great deal in making your video looks good. Also, don’t forget to force Anti-Aliasing with your videocard!
ATI users: Force anisotropic filter to 16x with Catalyst for better textures quality! The engine build-in anisotropic results is slightly inferior compared to ATI’s anisotropic filter settings.
What do you do … if you’re still awake at 4am and bored?
Playing a game of UrbanTerror is what i would do. So i did. A little video showing … UrbanTerror 2v2 gameplay from my point of view. I still couldn’t sleep after the game so i went to make a little video of the game demos.
No uber-frags highlights here, so if you’re looking for those you’re at the wrong place. Just a couple moments i wanted to slap audio tracks on to it to make it sorta ‘story-telling frag actions’. Pretty much same concept as when i made Breaking The Lines: Editing in 2h.
Complains and rants will be redirected to the carebear
This short video clip displays practices i use to find the right mouse sensitivity for Urban Terror.
I uses a Razer DeathAdder 1800DPI with the Razer Goliathus Alpha on Windows 7 (1800dpi, default razer sensitivity, 1000hz polling), in-game sensitivity of 0.935.
Playing in windowed mode of 1610x1004 (with a vertical taskbar).
THAT DOES NOT MEAN THOSE ARE THE SETTINGS YOU SHOULD OR MUST USE.
