Have to say this is all looking very impressive. Dunno why its so hard to add an outline to that hovercraft, lol, but apart from that, top notch stuff.

Definitely looking forward to these now, especially as this one is dealing with the Real like all my favourite ones from the animated cinematics did.
Oh, I have a question: it is said that the cinematics will be "silent and subtitled". Does it mean that there will just be no voices in it or there will be no music as well?
I guess it would be great to have some kind of soundtrack, even if it would be provided by one of the tracks that have been used before...
It means no sound.
It's looking like the final result will be a swf rather than a gif, which I suppose in theory means that it could contain sound, but in reality, I have no sound experience, no time, blah blah.
Hm, do we still have that bug where the game music plays while the cinematic viewing window is open? 'Cause that would have the same effect as the best possible outcome of me trying to mess with sound (which I'm not going to do in any event). Ooh plus it wouldn't increase the cinematic download size. ... Oops, nope, looks like we fixed that one. Hm.
wow your up late. anyways from the screens you have showen us so far some of them are alot better than i thought they would be nice job rarez
Have Dracomet code up some sort of system whereby the loading area music still plays for these new cinematics but not the old ones?I know it's likely too late for this release but maybe include it in a hotfix or next time you can just add it retrospectively?
Music is magic Rare! =) Hm, I guess I'll have to find some soundtracks off my harddrive while watching these=) Looking good btw! *two thumbs up*
Can't say I like the look of that guy. Either it's a miss or he's actually that ugly.
Love the static effect, though.
Will these new fangled cinematics be using the "vp6" video codec, by chance? It seems pretty much impossible to convert swfs lacking that to a format that would lend itself to fan added music versions. *Shrug*
That so reminds me of the MxO-comics of the player, who got himself banned because of a huge scam.
Also, I like the developement of these. Keep it up Rare!

He's probably not as detailed so as not to draw attention to him. Probably a nobody redpill giving a breifing and what he's saying is more important then who he is.
Just my guess anyway.
Nah, it's an Oligarch.
Mystery Man #3: Defense control? These pathetic little E Pluribus Neo ships have been buzzing round our colony for days. Could you please shoot them down now?
Morpheus: Yes sir.

EPN already left the area. nice try though. A for effort.
I'm sure you could get mxo players to help with sound and voices.

As I said eh I think in the "New Approach" thread somewhere maybe, they'll be using Flash's 8-bit lossless image format, rather than any sort of video codec. The exporter I'm using calls it "Lossless-8" bitmap format, but I don't know if that's the official type name.
