Quacker Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 You're very welcome to stay and join, Venn.Meanwhile, Quacker, let's keep working on this. Could you specify what you need to move forward? (Incidentally we now have an awesome music dept. head, Omri, so I think we have the music side covered).For sure.Here's the latest, cuz I'm lazy and don't want to scroll up every timeImagine a moment in time that never was(On-screen: Time axis animation showing somehow that 1 B.C. is followed by 1 A.D. and that 0 A.D. is being added artificially).when six civilizations were each at their prime.(On-screen: Map of the 6 civs on parchment as in the Facebook page. Fade to in-game shots of various building sets & biomes.)Imagine the freedom to learn from a game, alter and expand it and share your creations.(On-screen: Gameplay shots, with overlays on the bottom fading in and out. First, logos of Windows, Linux and Mac and the words "cross-platform"; Next, logos of GNU and Creative Commons and the words "Free, open-source software").Gain experience in game development.(On-screen: Shots of the actor viewer, wireframes of buildings and units and then their textured versions, a shot of the pathfinding visualization etc.).Visit play0ad.com to contribute.(On-screen: Find Out How to Contribute at www.linkhere.com, possibly with YT annotations)0 A.D. - History is yours for the taking.(On-screen: 0 A.D. logo & motto. Secondary logos: WFG and the other stuff like GNU, CC, the operating systems)Can we get sign-off on this from a higher power? Once that is accomplished, we need a VO so I can time the animations and such rather than editing blind..er, deaf.As for the currently chosen graphics:Time-Axis Animation - Done, will tweak as needed to fit timing.Map of 6 Civs - Do we have this original PSD or AI file? Vector = better, if it exists. If someone has the PSD with layers, that would be great, too.In-game shots of various buildings - Mythos, can you eye-candy it up for me? You seem to have a great eye for map design, and a good working knowledge of Atlas. If you can provide some screen shots and videos of basic gameplay, that would be fantastic. Everyone else feel free to join in, not just Mythos. I'd also like it to be original content, not just a mash-up of currently posted screenshots.Actor viewer, wireframes, textureds, pathfinding - Same thing, those who can access these resources to get captures, I'll need those. The more the better. I'd rather have things I can't use because of time than be fishing for even more. My situation makes it so that I really need you guys to provide this.

Quacker Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 All righty then Sounds good. Further thoughts, Aviv, or do we want to make that the working final script? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pureon Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Quacker are you happy recording some in-game footage yourself? It's very easy to change the camera settings for 0AD, allowing you to take some nice slow pan shots of the existing maps. Unfortunately my computer is too slow to record them in HD, you've probably seen my examples in the first post: http://www.wildfiregames.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=13817&view=findpost&p=213413Map of 6 Civs - Do we have this original PSD or AI file? Vector = better, if it exists. If someone has the PSD with layers, that would be great, too.There's a few different faction maps floating about, I've emailed my version as a high-res PSD to your gmail. It's full size, but I could always work on some larger ones for you if needed, though I suspect it'll be fine for HD video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quacker Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 I can see what I can do; my home computer is a first-gen MBP, and it runs a little choppy. Plus I don't have access to Atlas. Someone with a Windows rig would be best suited to this, though I'm not sure as to the best recording programs. QuicktimeX allows full HD screen recording.

Pureon Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Yeah it's not easy to find someone with enough Atlas knowledge, a good computer, and an eye for video. That's why I was hoping you could do it because I trust you'd do a good job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeru Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 We need to find one. What kind of talent should we look for? Male/female? Young/old? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quacker Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 When I read it, I hear a 40-year old man's voice. Though, about the same age and female would work, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeru Posted March 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 I posted a notice that we're seeking a voice actor on the news.I'd give it a week or two.

Venn Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Just received the message on YouTube. I would be glad to record the lines for the trailer. I will not be able to do this tonight (it's a bit late) but could have something posted by Wed afternoon if that works?@Quacker Tech, but I cheer for the Bulldogs VennL.G.C.
