Pioneer on Youtube

[KingHaggis]

If you can't upload it, I'd like to give it a try. But what's also fine by me is posting the megaupload link so people can download it from there. That way, there's no need to upload it twice .

[s2odan]

I have linked to the Youtube one from Mod-DB.I wanted to try and get a video in the 'video' section on the page though. It does allow it to be uploaded from a URL but it doesn't like MegaUpload.So yes while we can of course add some more links, they won't appear in the correct place which is a little unfortunate.I'm downloading the video now, but I have a feeling it would take me about 4 hours to upload it to modDB That would be ok except that the upload does not allow for resuming. :xIf you can upload it in less than 4 hours, and you dont mind uploading it again, then Ill give you access to the Mod-DB page. Just create an account there if you havent already and let me know here.

[KingHaggis]

I can upload it again. It'll take me about 1.5 hours or so. I registered to mmodb a few days ago, but never got a confirmation e-mail, no matter how often I clicked on "resend e-mail". I can log in however, but my account is not fully activated until I get a confirmation e-mail. Weird huh?I'll try again.

Okie dokie, you should be added to the mod-DB site now... unless there is an imposter with your name ;)But once your joined up, you can click on 'videos' on the pioneer page, then 'submit some media' or on the little cross '+' to add media and your set to go :)Cheers.

loving the youtube clips compared it to infinity and while the graphics are a little less the game is much more accessible and thats a good thing

just to bring the thread a bit to front not a very special video, but i wanted to see how/if it works.

directors cut

Something I put together tonight. I'm a manual space flight junkie. you want the original (silent) mpeg, at 1022x766, get in touch with me. It's 65MB, but much clearer.

Nice one guys I've sort of had another video in the works myself, but everytime I start making it I find faults with the terrain Which means I have to fix that and start again

[Potsmoke66]

well start once, i felt the same with my spaceport, but if i wait anylonger, no videos will be ever made by me.

[s2odan]

Hey, I decided to put some music with a video I had made two weeks ago so here it is, nothing special just some terrains in Very Very High mode:

[Potsmoke66]

nice one, a bit long, i feared to press play.

*gulp* I'm going to have to watch this at work because it would literally take all day to download on my dial-up.

[Potsmoke66]

last week i've read that swiss is leading in high-speed connections (except skandinavia). no wonder, dial up didn't exists anymore here, all providers cancelled this service since a few years, so you have to get high-speed.

[Marcel]

It must be nice to live in a modern, civilized country. My dial-up only costs me $6/month however. I was exaggerating a bit about the time. It takes a bit over 5 hours to download a nightly build.

[Potsmoke66]

my actual WIP just to give a perspective to the new spaceport i'm working on (since i don't know).

[Marcel]

That's looking incredibly cool! I was thinking of putting some simple textures, etc. on the ground station, but I see I needn't bother.

Nice work. I look forward to seeing it in action.

it's a bit oversized i guess and "kills" a lot of buildings due to that.i intented to make the space port big enough to keep carriers up to a size of 150x300x100 w,l,h, it will have 3 docks in minumum, but i could make up to 6 (if you like it crazy 12 would be possible, 6 on two levels), the building is big enough, i can still downsize it. the whole building is made of repetive used tiles and i can extend it whenever i like it.it is almost finished, i only stucked a bit with the waypoints, but i got that soon solved i guess. another problem is that the dock is underground leveled, it would be fine if there would be a possibility to "cutout" the terrain, but that's not very important now, first it must work proper then we see.have you seen that slight flashing in the archo's dome? i never noticed such before and now i wonder where that is from. must be some "light" like the billboard function which lightens up transparent material in the same way, even if i won't miss that it's a cool way to light up a cockpit without "local_lighting". to me it looks like you would give alpha glow to the transparent material, right?. it would be cool if we could have that as a "real" setting. to explain it more it looks complete different to adding simply glow to the material, if a add glow to the transparent material it gets diffuse, but if i use "billboard" in front of a transparent set material everything thats "behind" get's lightened up and the material stays clear as glass (i like that!).btw, it's only the billboard function itself, i mean i can set the color to 0,0,0, and the size to 0 and still it works, texture for the billboard can be a "hole" it doesn't matter.
