Ambient and Reflection Occlusion

[Da_elf]

ok. can i ask a question. lovely animation awsome script (plugin) however. ive never understood why people use wmv files. its always jerky in playing for me.

[DaForce]

smooth as silk here

a properly encoded WMV can be pretty good on quality and filesize.
Plus i believe the encoding software is free.

There is no good way of editing a WMV so it kinda locks it down safe like

For those interested: Markus Jäck started a threat on cgtalk for the animations. He also posted some stills in better quality. You can find it

Da Elf -- you mentioned choppy playback with WMVs. Do you perhaps have an nvidia card -- a Quadro perhaps?

I have issues with some playback in Windows Media Player -- I have an FX 2000. I've found playback to be improved by turning off Use Overlays and Use High Quality Mode under Options/Performance/Advanced.

Maybe you are experiencing something similar?

[Da_elf]

actually its an old diamond viper 16mb card

[DaForce]

are you watching it under windows media player 9?

Try search on google for Media Player Classic , and see how it plays under that.
MPC = best thing since sliced bread

mpc seems to work really nice. seems the anim plays slower. but maybe its just mp9 that was messed up. how long is the anim?

[DaForce]

30seconds here for the bclass_3.wmv movie.

The things i like about MPC is space bar pauses playback..and again to resume.
Double click the screen to go to full screen and again to exit out.

These are the 2 things i liked about media player 6 which was destroyed when mediaplayer 9 came out...

MPC Forever

P.s. The movie length wouldnt really change, its probabaly just playing smoother, so it seemed longer in WMP9 ^_^

[analogueWay]

Klasse!

Very impressive work. If I fly over to Germany, will you show me how you put it all together?

[GeneCrucean]

Seriously dimo... you guys are freaks. That melted my puny little brain.
