BALSHOR! I should have known!!

Yep, I don't know if Balshor is still around, but he made one hell of a great tool. Sadly, I can't use your demo editor so I can't compare. (Your editor doesn't seems to like EU demo files and prefer to crash right away )

So how did you do the bit where the gals fade in to City Hall? Is that some video overlay thing?

Nothing that complex. As you may have guessed, my camera movement are just mathematical equations, so I can replay them identically, while at the same time changing the background or the scene. This opens a lot of opportunities for specials effects.

In this case, it's relatively simple : I shoot the city hall with no-one inside, then I shoot again with the same camera movement but with the girls walking in.
Then I load the two sequences in Windows Movie Maker (for example), and create a simple fade in-fade out transition between them. Finally, I have to time precisely the fade-in fade-out, to perfectly "superimpose" the camera movement in the two sequences, and pouf! my all-girls villain group appears to seduce our hero to his doom.

Thanks a lot for those kind words, everyone

Somewhere out there, there's another demo edit program.....

Not that I am aware of
I use mainly Balshor's CoH Demo Editor and the scuzzbopper's database, as well as some guides found on this board (including yours, Zloth). I work with Notepad to develop animations and such in one text file, and camera work in another text file. I then use Balshor's editor to merge and synchronise the two files.

Anyway, I'm on the 14-days free trial here (I'm a former Freedom player, but I play on EU servers now), so if you have any questions, I'll do my best to answer it.

Ps : I agree that the Statesman battle could have been 10 times better in terms of action. Actually, this is the only part of the video where I used a pre-recorded demo file, of a real battle with Statesman inside the Founder Fall's Mayhem mission.
