[aja5191]

Well, I do kinda have that authority...

But credit should also go to RTR, who have a contest like this set up for loading screens for 7.0, from which I got the idea.

You have authority? Where'd you get it? Tell Cherry to give me some.

[aja5191]

I thought we decided that you could have my raise, and I got your authority

UM did this in 20 minutes off/on at work so MAYBE 5 minutes of actual work went into it on "Paint" lol, but couldn't resist Roman heads on pikes and the dead sentry...

[pseudocaesar]

[pseudocaesar]

Nothin major, just some darkened skies, blurred soldiers but sharpened the central soldier.

Thats a good thing right??? as i said wasnt sure what i was doing was just messing around with a few filters and stuff and ended up with that so decided to just go with that

aja5191 ... or anybody else... how do u make ingame screenshots like this? i mean to zoom the soldiers without any buttons, radarmap, unitcards, arrows etc.

i know if you hit F5 and F7 you can hide the radar and unitcards and by pressing Ctrl+F2 you can hide the unit info! but it shows me always the selected unit highlighted, the mouse arrow aswell as the arrows right or left from the selected unit!

i tried also to play a little bit with the camera_fov in the preferences.txt file and changed the settings from 75.00 to 65.00! now im able to zoom more to the units but i think, it isnt the same as on your screenshots!

it would be nice to known, coz i want to make some wallpaper and perhaps some new loading screens and it'll help me to make it in a better way!

sorry for the questions beside this topic... submission to this competition from me will be follow asap!

OK, you need to run in movie_cam mode.
Add - movie_cam to the end of your shortcut.
Play a custom battle save the video replay.
Play the saved game replay.

Controls:
2 move forwards
4 pan left
6 pan right
7 move left
9 move right
8 move back
+ (on number pad) pan upwards
- pan downwards
* on num pad (I think - I'm on laptop at the moment so am trying to remember what the controls are!) move down
/ is it? (anyway it's the two keys above the numeric pad) move up
Enter play
Space stop (and removes interface if you hit it again)
Num lock (removes blue timeline)
Esc brings up interface / menu

Then obviously take your screenshots as usual with Fraps.

[Marcus Illuminatus]

I don't like this system, it stifles creativity from the users.
