Turkey Time

**Rarebit**

Just thought I should drop a note to mention that the SOE offices are closed this Thursday and Friday for the Thanksgiving holiday, which means that we won't have official Live Events on those days. I also don't have anyone in the office today who can upload images for me (:p), so there won't be an Image Retrieval this week (wasn't planning one anyway, conveniently--gotta save up for two particular ones just before the Winter Holiday update...), and I won't be able to put up a Live Event thread today for yesterday's event.

But that doesn't mean I can't sneak in a preview, I guess...

Yes! FINALLY!

Hee, starring Lezel and me, with Cerulean peeking over my fedora. Nice shot! :: Hugs Rare::

That's you and Nicks! SMILEY<img src=

I have a sneaking suspicion that Rarebit either has a way to automatically take screenshots every second, or he has some Dev tool to recreate an entire event and take screenshots at his leisure. 'Cos these shots are just too good to be taken by chance.

F12, n00b! :p

F11 for me, as it happens. SMILEY

I still wonder how you manage to get such good shots, though. You must sit there hitting F12 more rapidly than is humanly possible.

If this is about the Thanksgiving holidays then shouldn't this be in the News and Announcements section? n00b! SMILEY

I would've pegged Rarebit for a Fraps user if I hadn't seen all of the "screeny_00" in system chat with his other LE posts.

Nah, just about as rapidly. Also, I've mentioned this before, but I have a few useropts settings that help me get the camera around quickly:

CameraChaseDuration = 0.1
ILCameraMode = 2
CameraMinDist = 100
CameraMaxDist = 2800
CameraMaxSpeed = 1000
CameraUserKeyDistSpeedScale = 5000
CameraUserKeyPitchSpeedScale = 250
CameraUserKeyYawSpeedScale = 400

Those will seem very twitchy at first, but with practice they're very helpful for moving the camera around to different angles while things are happening, using CTRL+WASDZX. The default camera keyboard movement speed is maddeningly slow...I'm really not sure why it's set as low as it is, but I'm hesitant to change it for all users (the default, I mean) now.

Whatever the deal, I demand favouritism, so PM me a picture of one of the clothing items that you say yourself are unlike anything MxO has had before. Don't worry about the favouritism, I'll then spread it equally over the forums SMILEY

That's not *exactly* what I said...
