DR, I think at the very least, NCNC should buy your vids from you and pay you in return with free-months!

Oh... and wonderful work on all your vids!

Don't I wish... But thank you very much for the compliments!

The YouTube version is still uploading, although if you visit my YouTube channel, you should eventually be able to see it once it goes live.

For those who insist on the high quality version, as always, you can find it on the Videos page of the Samuraiko Productions website.

Second: The new virus got into my computer, deleted my internet explorer thus deleting ALL internet connections, and then I was forced into MMO exile on... <Shudders> ... World of Warcraft...

It's odd, internet goes down, but MMO's still work, figure that out and I'll throw you a cookie.

There are approximatly 200 possibile answers for that. Most of them can fixed with a simple downloadable fix called "Winsock Fix" Look it up, Download it, Run it. Clears up a lot of problems.

Where's mu cookie?

It's a little late, but I too have watched it, was blown away by it. (If only had a fraction of the talent you seem to posses, then my attempts would actually be something. )

You truly are superbly creative and your skill shines through in your work.

I've have passed on the link to your trailer to some other boards that I frequent, and other members of some global channels that I tune into in-game were likewise impressed by your video.

I echo all the above comments... Well done! Looking forward to your next production.

Don't let a perceived difference in talent stop you from making stuff anyway. When I first created my videos, this was after seeing stuff from other people that I thought "Oh God, I'll never manage anything like that". And look at me now. So TRY!

Thanks very much for posting links to my stuff, I appreciate it! (Just one request - if you're linking folks to the high rez version, please link them to my website page, and not to the actual file itself.) YouTube links are always cool.

And stay tuned - once I actually get into the closed beta (if I get in because of attending HeroCon), I get to start on the I-14 trailer...

Seriously? I've been chomping at the bit for the issue ever since I heard they were creating the Mission Architect.

But it seems a few folks agree with you, and my video is the only reason they're stoked for I-14, which is kinda sad. I want them to be stoked for I-14 coz the MA will (hopefully) rock, not just coz my video was neat.

Hey Dark, I don't think he means he didn't care about I14 until he saw your vid, just that I14 had lost a fair amount of it's prominance in the public eye until you video brought it back to the for-front.

I mean, before I13 dropped I had literally gotten sick of hearing about "I13's gonna ruin this" and "I13 gonna kill PVP" I mean I had really gotten to the point of HEaring I13 and just blotting out whoever was talking about it. Then I saw your video for it, and I was like "Oh wait. I13 isn't all doom, gloom and destruction".

Well it also inspired me to look again and demo editing maybe makeing my own videos. Certienly you can see the potental for that aspect which would be why it would appeal to you. I have not been enthused because there been so limited information out there. I suppose the idea that Close Beta started shortly after I watched it would have some bearing on it as well it is moving. After all this has been one of those Issue where you wonder if it is ever coming out.

Wait. I-14 Trailer? Whatever happened to the Videographer's Task Force we filmed after wrapping up the Matrix Machinima Contest? When do we get to enjoy that little jewel?

Seconding this.

I enjoy the game too much to ignore the forum... and all the I13 (and now "I14's a waste, this is stupid, just do I15 already") nonsense gets grating.

The vid's a big antidote

WHAT!? You FORGOT about us!?!? Nonononono, that's not it. The real reason is that all the subjects in the video were just so awesome that you had to spend lots of extra time to make a video that lived up to their mighty potential. Yeah, that's the ticket!

Nice!

Wanted: Origin centric story arcs.
If you've only played an AT once (one set combo) and "hate" it - don't give up. Roll a different combo. It may just be those sets not clicking for you.

Excellent as always. Quick side question though, is that the first time Johanna <?> has made an appearance in your vids?

---

Writer of In-Game fiction: Just Completed: My Summer Vacation. My older things are now being archived at Fanfiction.net http://www.fanfiction.net/~jwbullfrog until I come up with a better solution.

No, Johanna has appeared in my other vids:

Issue 10 - she appears all in black and dressed like a priest several times (including the last shot of her poised in front of a War Wall before a dropship nails her at the end of the video)

Issue 11 trailer - she appears in both her priest look and her Mender look throughout the entire video

Issue 12 trailer - she appears in the shot with a mixed hero/villain group in front of the Sybil guarding the door in the ITF, as well as in Roman armor doing the Unstoppable gesture

Issue 13 trailer - she appears in her Mender form very briefly during the Day Jobs montage floating in front of the Pillar of Ice and Flame

Quick question...

How did you do that walk on white right at the beginning if you don't mind letting us know? Which map did you use? Or is it a Trade Secret? However you did it, it looked cool.

Through judicious use of demo-editing and Leandro's Splasher program. For information on how to make a character walk, check out Part V of my TOONS ON FILM presentation from HeroCon.

great video, was curious from your comments though, how did you actually put the splasher to use in this vid?

Modified a room in the base to give me an all white background. How exactly it all works, I don't know - I didn't write the program.
