Am I in the right forum? I am looking for the correct location to
post a 10-15 movie detailing all of the various bugs in Mxo so that
they can be viewed, understood, and acknowledged by SOE employees.

Are we allowed to go over 15 minutes? I don't know if I can fit everything into a 15 minute window...

Well Walrus, we've actually been both producing and collecting MxO player videos at Machinimatrix.com for several months now, not to mention the fact that we've also taught many new MxO players how to make the very best in-game movies they can. Most of the highest quality MxO player videos (old and new) ever created can already be found there and we're always adding new ones. My own latest MxO video was even chosen for screening at this year's Academy of Machinima Arts & Science 2005 Machinima Film Festival which wrapped up this past weekend at the Museum of the Moving Image in NYC. It and other selected works of machinima will even be shown on the Independent Film Channel in the coming months. If that's not already "showing off" the potential of MxO then I don't know what is!

But, I'm not saying that I'm offering up mine or any of these videos for your contest; that's up to each individual video creator. I guess I'm just saying that we've been showing off the creative potential of MxO (and its community) from the very beginning and no one "official" has ever cared. Heck, Monolith/SOE has never even seen fit to add Machinimatrix.com to its own fan site links. (Bad enough that our MxO video postings were all censored, deleted or banished to this garbage pile RSI forum when SOE took over.) So, would I be all a flutter with excitement to know that devs might actually *now* take the time to stretch a coffee break in order to view our MxO videos? Honestly - No. And am I eager to "prove" to "all of SOE" that I can whip up a mean little chunk of machinima when I want to - No.

Ever since we all first began playing MxO some of us have (without any help nor recognition from anyone "official") killed ourselves testing MxO, loving MxO, playing MxO, filming MxO, promoting MxO and finding ourselves heartbreakingly disappointed by its management time and time again. NOW that we've watched our community die off, now that we've lost most of our MxO friends to other games and NOW that some of the most creative MxO video creators who ever played this game have actually quit playing MxO altogether... NOW you want to see our MxO videos? You just don't get it, do you? MxO once had the most amazingly loyal, creative and passionately enthusiastic fan base I've even seen in an MMO. Now, sadly, all they've left behind of their love of MxO is that collection of player videos we continue to archive over at Machinimatrix.com. But y'know, feel free to pick through the spoils of our heartbreak.

Here's my little vid, please note there are no credits, but the people i worked with were okay with that..

Please also note this is one of my first vids and the voice acting was
done at 3a.m. so yeah... i sound like i'm stoned... but i'm not, just
VERY tired. I'll work on one
for the contest just as soon as i can get some time off from college
work :smileymad:

Very nice site you have there Neuronomicon. I'm pretty sure some of your clips will make it. And After the SOE transition I think the Player links went away because I remember they used to have a very update list of nice links. If it was there and useful like it was before I'm sure you'd be on there.

Neuronomicon, i completely agree with you.

Since the beginning, you brought a great support to all movies creator in the MxO community with your website. And since the beginning we all stayed away from the eyes of Monolith/SOE teams.

Some quit, i did then i came back few weeks ago. Why? ok events coming up soon that s a fact but beyond this, the passion to make others movies SMILEY

(yeah MxO offers a universe, great emotes for acting, but not a First Person view yet >.< to make great travelling shoots :p)

Today, official team wakes up. Let s say it s better late than never. Let's show'em we're still here cause we have no FEEEAAAR!! hmm sorry ^^

A new video from Wens team is coming up today (hilarious i hope heh) i ll post the link here.

Let's keep up the passion feed our hearts Neuro SMILEY

I'm creating a massive video on syntax so if any are interested just conntact me and I'll fit you in the movie. So far the opening has been finish, were looking for ppl to play agents, bystanders, fighters, exiles, and dancers, so if you are interested in this contact either myself or Kawari on the syntax server or on the syntax forums

yeh if there was an actual first person "moving" mode there would be some genius movies i think...

wens

Sneak is the trick SMILEY

Rowley920

Yeh i know about sneak but thats kinda like a trick...i meant like they make something like "Spectator" in like a first person shooter for instance..where you can just go n e where u want at any height or something.

Primordia

Hit alt+j, zoom in all the way to your char, and use the scroll wheel to move a little above your char's head. Easy first person running view, although it seems a little too high for doorways and stuff.

When you say big screen Walrus, are we talking about movie trailers to
use to remarket MxO? Or are we talking inner-office big screen for SOE?

QforQ-MxO

Sounds like big screen as in the big meeting that he described in his post....as in the meeting that he needs the videos for.

**Walrus**

Think of a projection screen big enough to show to a large meeting room of people--Not as big as a movie screen, but definitely larger than your average TV.
