... I wonder how many people here play MXO on a screen that size.
I mean, we must have some, um... "tech devoted" people among us. SMILEY

Guess I'll throw this one in the mix - never got around to actually finishing it - but what's there so far shows off MxO pretty well - I think.

*sniff* *sniff* I smell a fanfest?

Walrus, are we limited to what types of music we can use, for example can we only use music from the movies or game, or can we use other non-matrix music?

Alright Walrus, ol' buddy ol' pal. Riddle me this:

1. Can we use any music of our choice?

2. Can we add sound effects (such as adding gunshot sounds and hit sounds from the movies)?

3. Can we add effects (such as explosions or slo-motion not created by the game)?

If these are all cool I'll try to whip up the coolest MxO movie ever over Thanksgiving break.

You can use the music you want im sure as long as it's not vulgar and riddled with foul language. And hell yea you can add sound effects. Also you can download the file from this website with all their official sound effects.

That's what i did in "Jackout" and i add special fx too such as explosions, bullets impacts and more...

Try to do better dude, challenge is open SMILEY

I have made about 6 movies, non-story comedy based so far, so hopefully we can get some good story thought out and produced SMILEY

WOOT back with an update, the video is lookin great, props to all those who have help so far.

We are shooting a massive battle scene on sunday, syntax server but we need a lot o ppl. Please send me a /tell in game or leave me a message on the Syntax forums on my post under Events called "Video Contest" This battle is not going to be scripted, it will be recorded with everyone fighting in pvp mode so it looks a bit more brawl like, multi fighting sneak attacks ect. It's doesn't mater what org you are you will be divided accordingly to fit the video. Plz PLz PLz contact me for this.

**Grace of Darkness**

Close to the mark but not quite there, no matter we can still succeed, the location for everyone to meet will be on the bridge at mara c, if you are a later comer you are still welcome in the movie this will take probably an hour to record so please be pateint with the instructions, Thanks again.

p.s. we will be recording downtown so make sure you aren't restricted

**Grace of Darkness**

WOOT thanks to all of you that helped today

Sup MXO I'm finally back with an update, The TNS video is finally finished it is being uploaded as I write this, the original file was 3.27 Gigs and that was an uncompressed avi file, but since I'm not a **bleep** and want everyone to be able to watch this vid I sacarficed some quality (after about 8 hours of trying to find the right codec) and I brought the size down to 336 megabytes, this is as best I could get it without it looking crappy like the agent fight vid. this is an mpeg file so it should play on just about any vid player.

Summary - The TNS has set up a meeting with a self aware blue pill for extraction, an agent intercepts the meeting and kidnaps the blue pill, Grace of Darkness is sent in to retreive him. He infiltrates the Kalt Chemical Government Buildings Park East location, but finds out that the machines have sent an agent to stop him. Grace flees the building wounded, he jacks out to heal, he calls for back up from allied factions, they set up a meeting to discuss the plan on rescuing the potential. The team decides to be a distraction so that grace can access the building once more. on the roof top of Kalt Zion and machine operatives fight meanwhile Grace infiltrates the building one more time to find that thew blue pills location is in midian park, gracce leave the building. A werewolf that was lying in wait seesd the dead gaurds he chases after Grace fo a battle to the death, Grace defeats him and teleports to Midian, he finds the blue pills and greets him so they can ready for extraction.

This mini movie has alot of music but I think only two matrix songs , Burly Brawl from Matrix reloaded and Wire Fu from The Matrix online

This took alot of effort and pateince and I appreciate everyone who helped with it. The video should be accessible by 8pm E a link will be posted on the Main boards and the syntax forums, please stay tuned.
