Quote from CrAZySkyPimp :You cant really compare arox clip (no offence buddy) and the lonely car driving in your H2H vol 5 video. I watched it in your videos and yes I enjoyed it because it's a part of a "bigger picture" not just a car driving. That hotlapping by Nolan had a bigger purpose in the end.

Well... damn... if you look at it that way, I mean, giving it a sense of purpose probably works better than just editing and flashy effects. Maybe you're right

Quote from CrAZySkyPimp :A car that drives around a track in lfs? Like we've never seen that before.

Totally untrue, if im honest. If you'd do good editing, with syncing, and good camerawork, and effects, a proper lap would look stunningly good, even in hotlapping mode. Proof? In my movie H2H vol:5, the point to which everyone returns and watches a few times over is Nolan Scott hotlapping the cars (info - Youtube insight)

Not enough camera smoothing
Car goes though camera
No logical beginning of the movie, it just starts as if I started watching it from the middle.
at one point we see the car going wide and into the grass... TWICE, from same angle.
If you're going to overlay engine sounds in a movie - overlay at least more than once
There is also no real ending to the movie. It just fades to black

Well, it's not like they rebuilt it from ground up, which WOULD result in a worse car, they've just improved it a bit.
Judging by the performance figures, I'd say it should definetly be better than the original
Not a fan though

Quote from Becky Rose :I am having a truly shit day, but you know what? It's the first time in two months I've not been shouted at, and I've actually finished work early for once! Thats some small mercy at least.

Life is a public shitter, and the best days are the ones when someone actually flushes... Im guessing it true for everyone in some ways

Quote from obsolum :You do know that they already released an Xbox exclusive DLC almost a year and a half ago now, don't you? That should have already had you convinced that it wasn't BS

Today is 4th september 2009
I didn't know that mid February 2009 was 1.5 years ago...
and knowing Rockstar usual plan - to release the PC version half a year later (all previous GTA titles), I think I still can safely have legal and unbeatable hope on it being BS for some small amount of time...

oh, damn it... Im starting to believe that this time Rockstar regular BS about "console exclusive" is actually console exclusive...
Still a faint hope lives somewhere inside of me of seing some of that content for PC...

Advice - make movies NOT when you don't know what to do... but when you want to make a good movie. This is just a pointless scene that we could have easily done without. I'd rather watch a SPR of you driving forwards

Quote from pearcy_2k7 :The bit that got me annoyed with it was having to chnage 20 different things everytime you upgraded, if it was a simple click button and it did all the calculations, maybe more people would use yours.

That's the problem with all Pixelcar RPGs. You buy a bunch of stuff, you do the maths, you remove a sum of money, do the maths, edit your sig to have proper money count there, go to profile, post all upgrades in the car's profile, change the stats, you're done... unless it's your sig car, in which case you need to edit your sig for the stats of teh car there, and if it involved visual tuning - upload the pic, put the link in the profile, and change the one in the sig...Every single Pixelcar RPG needs you to do that, really annoying tbh

As long as you don't use PCL exclusive bases, and parts... I think you're ok

Quote from Mp3 Astra :Did you even watch the blackness at the end? Surely that caught your eyes, or your ears.

Quote from Mp3 Astra :
The video is only a minute long but I accidentally rendered over 2 minutes. I'm not going to reupload it again

Enjoy

You're useless at racing and rubbish at making videos...


well... that's not actually true. The video was nice, but nothing special that would catch my eye. The extra 1 minute of blackness has just earned you 30 days in solitary confinement.

Quote from master_lfs.5101 :Oh look, i have 20 ports forwarded since December of last year. Did I get hacked? No. Did I get DDosed? No. How do I not get hacked/Ddos'ed? I use a firewall!

Why did you revive a useless thread just to say something that will not be listened to?

nope... ask Lynce to host it, he'll come up with original themes and he knows how to make videos.

Allright, here's my thought on how it should have been done

Quote from Somebody who knows how to make lfs movies :
this week's theme is car advert

Task:
You are to create a commercial for the RAC. The length of the video is limited to 60 seconds. You may use any skins you find necessary (as long as you have permission to use them) to make it look better or to make it look like a replica (a zonda / ferrari / any other real life car) and any track.
car: The only car allowed to be in the video is RAC, the quantity of RAC's is not limited
tracks: all

Bla bla bla
You have 2 weeks, since 1 week for having an idea is enough, and 1 week to record and edit 1 minute of video is also enough.

Now... detailed analysis

1. A seasoned video creator, as a host, will know what is hard to pull off while creating a video, and will set the task "just right" without making the contestants jumping through rings of fire over a shark pit, just to get all the necessary stuff for the task at hand.

2. A seasoned video creator, as a host, will know how much time will estimately be needed to create a video, of such complexity and will set a realistic deadline.

Best reason not to have this done at all ever : A video creator will only create the best video he can WHEN HE'S DOING SOMETHING HE IMAGINED HIMSELF, WITH HIS OWN IDEA, not when he's required to do something for someone
