So both people who actually play it are competing for a prize?

Just thinking about Rebirth still makes me angry.

I went over the time limit, but this game is just too beautiful! It perfectly fits Hans Zimmer's sountrack from the Interstellar movie. Hope you enjoy!
Seems your video is set to private.

@Informer - already saw your video some time ago, a very nice showcase :), I'm afraid you'll have to do some cuts though, rules say it shouldn't be more than 5 minutes :wink: ...even if should is not equal to has to...

And nice to hear you did like the video. :) Indeed my video is to long. Didn't even remember how long it was. I will give it a shot to make it a 5 min video. :)

Axeface wrote:Thanks for the reply, thats not exactly what I meant though. The thing I want to hide is the hud, like the target reticules and the circle in the center of the screen. Pressing the numberpad keys and looking around the cockpit removes them briefly, but I'de like the turn them off completely to take the video.
Sorry, I know I'm coming a bit late, but the only way I know to completely remove the hud (I know because I just used it to make my video and some screenshots recently), requires you to have a Nvidia card...if you apply to the game the Helix Mod fix for X Rebirth , amongst the things not needed if you don't use 3D Vision, you'll still get two very convenient hotkeys (keys "7" and "9") for removing cockpit or the entire hud...it has a downside, that is that it seems to work by doing something with game shaders, so there are places (usually while very near to things, or at steep angles) where you'll see all kind of unpleasant artifacts, but for most of the occasions it works just fine :)

But, I'm afraid you really need to have a Nvidia card to make it work...I don't know if the fix applied to the game may prevent it from starting on AMD cards, but if someone can make a test...best case scenario, the game will work as usual, and these hotkeys will still be available ;)

@BigBANGtheory - sorry no bridge action this time (I wanted to, but can't remove the hud and crosshair from first person yet), but I have lots of others videos with that :)

:O That is so beautiful *-*
My favourite so far but all entries are very beautiful and great.
Now I regret that I have bought an AMD gpu to turn the HUD off :D
I am very impressed.

A few questions:
1.) Which video editing software did you use?
> I used Windows Movie Maker but I have the problem upon exporting that sound and video get out of sync, the music is slightly but noticably faster. I think it has something to do with the American NTSC system.
2.) Which video recording software?
3.) How did you manage that the Xenon don't attack you?
4.) And whats that cool music in the background? :D

Thank you :)
As for the hud question, as I wrote I don't know if the trick can also work on AMD cards, someone has to be brave enough to try :P

1) I used the VSCD Free Video Editor suggested by X2-Illuminatus (thank you for the suggestion btw!)...it has its limitation (some crashes, and the preview function was so slow to be almost completely useless...I had to render the entire video multiple times to see where to correct and adjust things :shock: ), but is simple enough that for the first time I understood how to work on a video montage, I always wanted to do one but I've never been able to before!

2) Nvidia Shadowplay, it's very good because it has a negligible impact on performance even at exceptional quality (the raw videos at full screen, were practically the same as having the game running!), it's very dumb because it records everything on screen, including mouse cursor, steam overlay and notifications, everything...had to use a joystick to have a completely clean view...

3) Well, the Xenon I was too busy chewing the Balors I threw at it :)...I cut before the thing noticed me and gave me its greetings :D

4) Waking Up by M83, part of the Oblivion movie soundtrack, as reported in description ;)...a bit underrated movie, but it's really worth it in my opinion, even for the music alone, go check it if you already didn't! :)

Your video was blocked (at least in Germany) because of copyright infringement.
"Sadly this video is not available in Germamy because it contains content from SME [...]"
Egosoft is a German studio so this might be a problem.
It is probably the music :)
