JA Machinima I Am Making

[Phantomgunex758]

Hey guys,

 

I am relatively new to JA and a few friends and I are thinking of making a machinima for JA. This machinima may have minor skinning and modding involved, but only basic stuff, as the only background of modding I have is in the Halo community.

 

However, we would require help from more senior members of this community. There are certain things we need to do:

 

- Get a good Video recording software - Yes, no $$ to get a good one, must be freeware and able to record sounds.

- Learn how to move the ingame camera - We know how to use console, but not move the camera

- Learn how to get rid of the HUD - The stuff can get in the way during filming.

 

I would appreciate help in these areas, and would greatly appreaciate it if I could receive some.

 

More news on the machinima will be released soon enough, if I can get these stuff resolved.

 

Thanks to all.

cg_ThirdPersonVertoffset -16

cg_ThirdPersonAngle 180

-rotates camera around any degree you choose.

 

cg_ThirdPersonRange 100

-(how close or far the camera is)

 

cg_fov 100

-Changes the camera perspective distortion

 

cg_ThirdPersonCameraDamp

-Changes how the camera follows you when in 3rd person mode. Useful when taking screenshots. Default value is: 0.3

 

there's also exec files that can be run to use the numerical keys as camera controls

cg_draw2d 0

will deactivate the HUD

 

Helpful tips for demo recording and whatnot:
