John Venema Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Well here's the thing ... you're not showing us any FTX scenery I guess. LHI is cool, but it's from Aerosoft, and this is the Orbx forums No offense intended mate; the vids are fine though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogdoor Posted September 15, 2008 Author Share Posted September 15, 2008 The scenery is an ORBX theme. The Aircraft - Mooney Bravo HD is FTX endorsed - check the free page on the main FTX site... Also I link the ftx site on the vid.. Your response is a more than a little disheartening.. I have purchased the full suite of FTX software and love YMML for the sheer realisim. Similarly this scenery takes my breath away... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SimFreak Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Dogdoor get your act straight mate. You're on the FTX forum. The HD Mooney is a nice freeware addition but still requires the payware Carenado. Lord Howe is Aerosoft. So basically 0% of FTX AU Blue or AU Gold is shown. We all know FTX main features aren't a HD repaint and a weather theme. I think John was being more than fair with you. That being said, try looking into programs like Walk and Follow. It basically gives you more panning freedom. Right now you use a lot of different panning movements within one take so to speak. It's usually best to avoid random panning. It's often confusing and hard on the eyes. This vids could use some polishing, though there surely are some nice parts in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogdoor Posted September 15, 2008 Author Share Posted September 15, 2008 Appreciate the technical advice.. I will try out your suggestions, I am still grappling with the fsrecorder thing so it will take a few vomitty vids before I get into the swing of things. Clearly my post is NOT applicable here.. Post with links removed. :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogdoor Posted September 15, 2008 Author Share Posted September 15, 2008 Dont seem to be able to remove my post.. I dont have the energy for the debate regarding applicable posting, so do as you will... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Venema Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 There no need to remove the links - the vids are fine, and nicely put together. Generally though, the community here shares videos using Orbx FTX addons, and the repaint and weather theme whilst being Orbx "bits", don't show FTX. Can I perhaps encourage you to keep going with your videos, because they show a bloody lot of thought gone into them and I know making them is a lot of work. So why not download the free FTX demo and try some videos in Tasmania? Sorry if we appeared to "slam" you, that was not our intention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogdoor Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 Yes, it did hit me as an unwarranted "slamming". I appreciate your encouraging response however. Just for context here, you should know that I have purchased the full suite of FTX software at the point each items release. So I do support FTX and the work they do. There are a couple of my prior vids (with ftx scenery) posted here somewhere: My first Vid: http://www.youTOOB.com/watch?v=YBHIvOR86WA change the above "TOOB" to "tube" to view... & previously unreleased here: http://www.youTOOB.com/watch?v=W-bjOxKzxPg change the above "TOOB" to "tube" to view... Note the Pilot and Co-Pilot in the 1900d. Who new that PMDG designers are Trekkies?? I fly with a Virtual Airline and I have nagged and pushed for the people I fly with to install the Tassie pack and the 160+ Ozx airports. One friend in Mt Isa (chopper pilot) is waiting eagerly for the nothern scenery bits, when these are released he will buy the lot. We recently did a VA (VAFS) coastal run of Australia and I regularly do hops of Tasmania in Twotters and 1900d's. The side trips to the bush strips from various hubs adds amazing realism to these flights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Venema Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Thanks for spreading the word mate Your YMML vid is nice, love the trekkies in the cockpit LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogdoor Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 No worries and thanks. I was taken back to see cap'n Kirk as pilot and Spock as co pilot in the PMDG 1900d! Still, if it was up to me it would be Data and Jean-Luc Picard... Geuss that rules me out of the "old School" geek category... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
