just dont make it high-reso in the end kthx
i was thinking about 1280x720 or 640x480 because i dont have enough space :< which resolution is the best after HD?
Parent
1. turn blood off
2. if you are going for 1280x720, then use the following:

r_mode -1
r_customwidth 1280
r_customheight 720
cg_fov 106 (106 @ 16:9 = 90 @ 4:3)

do NOT record at 1280x960 and then RESIZE to 1280x720... NEVER resize into a different aspect ratio than what you recorded at.
Parent
what about new gunmodels rtcw medpacks and other stuff?
Parent
I use everything standard, it's a matter of preference. I prefer standard everything, including fonts. I may modify a shader or texture here and there though.
Parent
Last time I used 105 fov for 1280x720 , everyone said i used a bad fov so >:R
Parent

"106.270273206" is the exact value.

Anyone saying it was a bad fov is simply an idiot, it's the perfect fov.
Parent
oke doke, btw comparing to all these moviecfg pictures on here, my config is really blurry and shitty, I made it myself and it sucks. I guess I could get better quality if someone shared his nice cfg.. You seem to know something about movies, mby you can gimme some nice moviecfg? :\
Parent
just because I know a lot about movies doesn't mean I have a nice cfg :)

I can upload it anyway... or at least what I think is my movie cfg.

must be old :oD

you probably wanna change resolution and shit
Parent
btw, 2 pictures, fov 106 and 101.. imo 101 looks much better than 106.. 106 is too curved / compressed, whatever.. no way it's 90 on 4:3.

106: http://m1.freeshare.us/163fs419714.jpg
101: http://m1.freeshare.us/163fs419926.jpg

its a jpeg so the quality is degraded


also should I force z-buffer depth to 24 bits or 16 bits or should I leave it disabled?
Parent
I shall quote John Carmack (he did code the engine... so I think he is right :))

QuoteOn a normal 4:3 aspect ratio screen, a 90 degree horizontal field of view gives a 75 degree vertical field of view. If you keep the vertical fov constant and run on a wide screen, you get a 106 degree horizontal fov.


And yeah I wouldn't recommend my cfg, although my Q3 config is nice if you want to start making some of them!

oke. ill use 106 in my next movie. also yeah, i wont be using your movie cfg.. I have one question though - you have r_ignorehwgamma 0. Is that better for movies, aka more contrast between dark corners mby or what?
Parent
It's definately better... the specific r_gamma value I end up tweaking a bit, but defiantely ignorehwgamma 0, otherwise it can look bland.

And about fov... it's about what looks best, I was just stating that 106 is equal to 90, and that is fact, if it doesn't look good you don't have to use it :)
Parent
seta r_detailtextures "0" Might want to set that to 1.

seta r_ignorehwgamma "0" Might want to set that to 1.
Parent
Detailed textures I agree with, (obviously), not too sure about the gamma thing though. I prefer it at 0.
Parent
kk :DDDDD
grass could be more green
hmm i take blood because zaigon have it :DDD but muzzle flash hmm its good i think and i thinking too about gun models medpacks from rtcw and other stuff it will be good with this or not?
OHH BTW HEAL ME IM ON THE RIGHT!!!!!!!!
Is that everything on top GFX?

Btw; what fps u get with that?.
ye i put antialliasing and other stuff hmm dunno i dont have fps on hud :<
Parent
16:10 aspect ratio... its a movie (and my screen is that ratio xD)

edit: and maybe take the blood off? not many people like them... otherwise looks nice... can I have it? :D
config you mean?
Parent
remove popups + killtext, then it will look rly skilled if u put dignitas names + mystic and butchjie
imo, r_directscale 1.1 ; r_ambientscale 1.1
btw link to grass mod on radar please ;]
Parent
ultra private! jk, wait for "pk3" release (must be soon, just finishing a thing + giving a new look to et menus / background)
Parent
you mean chalpja mod?
Parent
since when is chaplja releasing a mod? :O as far i know, chalpja is releasing a hack, and im editing some stuff in et (u can call it a mod )
Parent
kk hack movie master :*
Parent
not bad for the beginning
Don't include frags where you just kill someone, they get revived and kill you right back.
