I think that it's a bit hard to do with SFM, but it may workOmniary wrote:I was thinking that perhaps the 990 segment could be a pre-animated short video that would play, not sure how or who it would be done by, though. Perhaps it could be an SFM animation?
Reminds me of those Games that have FMVs play during a Cutscene with Pre-Rendered Graphics rather than Real Time Models. Possibly a 3D Program could be used to do such a thing then have it rendered as an .avi or more compressed format. Blender was used to make Short Movies, after all.Omniary wrote:I was thinking that perhaps the 990 segment could be a pre-animated short video that would play, not sure how or who it would be done by, though.

never feels as good as analogue cutscenes but I suppose it could get a lot more out of it.pre-animated short video that would play
Yeah, the thing is that I don't really think the game could support an impressive monologue with dynamic lighting and close ups and realistic facial animation. Hopefully the pre-rendered animation wouldn't overshadow the contents of the game itself, that is.FireFox wrote:Reminds me of those Games that have FMVs play during a Cutscene with Pre-Rendered Graphics rather than Real Time Models.

I might be able to hopefully come up with something. ;)Omniary wrote:Yeah, the thing is that I don't really think the game could support an impressive monologue with dynamic lighting and close ups and realistic facial animation.

Also, music: will there be a track playing during the dream scene? I certainly think it'd be a lot more impressive with one. Something similar to the stuff in the ambience thread, maybe a bit less threatening, and more calming. (it is a dream after all)
I do think that the moving picture style cut scene may be easiest. It could be pretty stylized too.Omniary wrote:I was thinking that perhaps the 990 segment could be a pre-animated short video that would play, not sure how or who it would be done by, though. Perhaps it could be an SFM animation?

What kind of adjustments do you mean?Omniary wrote:To be honest, the 990 dream really fits the most in the beginning. The only ending that (even vaguely so) suggests D-9341 lives is the Gate A one. I still feel this one is the best draft anyways.SpoilerI'd like make to some adjustments and additions on this one, seeing as how it's the best one imo so far.
Nothing drastic, just some minor rewording and such, I'll do it soon enough, when I have the time to concentrate for just a short while. Of course, all of that is subject to adjustments too, it's just a suggestion for improvement. It's still a great draft to work off of in the first place.Popuphater wrote:What kind of adjustments do you mean?
