    This mod is looking great. Loving those helmets

    I agree that the mod and indeed the game itself is the star! I enjoyed your vid and the main difference between yours and mine is I spent a wholly unjustifiable amount of time editing it. Like me I suspect you do it for the enjoyment rather than the hope of an oscar so keep up the good work and keep sharing.

    Cheers Kevinkin. I have to say though... it's not talent. It's more to do with having too much time on my hands and no social life.... well, not since I started playing CM.

    Looking forward to the next module. In the meantime I'm still enjoying Red Thunder This is the next little vid with a narrative.
  5. PaulMD
    Yeah. It tickled me too Glad I gave ye a chuckle.

    My experience of raising the bar is that someone lifts it higher... and then whacks me over the head with it. Good luck with it mate. Like I say it's easier than it looks.

    It can be quite labour intensive, depending on how much you want to polish it. 'The Old' soldier took about a week to put together and then edit. What takes up a lot of time before you get to that part is continually recording the same turn from different angles so that you have enough material to put a story together. So, if the scenario takes an hour, you can times that by however many times you record that turn. Then you have to play that footage back to pick out the bits you want. That usually takes me a couple of days or three. Saying that, it's by far, a lot easier than it looks. The story suggests itself thanks to the immersive nature of the CM games, specially if you replay them and get close in. During the replay you see lots of things ou missed the first time round. I record it on Bandicam Import it into MAGIX Movie Edit Pro 2014 but there are lots of other programs you can use. To upload it, I compress it first with a program called Handbrake. What makes it easy to do, is the fact that it can be so enjoyable nad you REALLY get the juice out of any scenario you are playing. Give it a go

    Shouldn't that be Ukraine?

    First I get an Oscar from Reiter and now I qualify for the Award For Lowering The Tone of The Forum I'm on a winning streak here.

    Damn! I'm humbled. I suppose it's traditional to give a speech at this point and for me to burst into tears. Would you settle for this and this Oh... and if you liked that one you should like this one. I hope
  11. PaulMD
    I don't mind... just so long as they don't taste like p..s

    Doctor P? Makes me sound like a urologist. Here you go, take this bottle and come back when you've filled it up. Preferably with Guinness

    Now you know where the inspiration for 'Sitzkrieg' comes from. Also the Farterland...etc..
  14. PaulMD
    I quite like this one because it made me chuckle.
  15. PaulMD
    I agree Ringo. It should be kept a secret. i only discovered the Kyle because I went for a funeral... not mine...obviously. Before we went to Plockton i told everyone we were heading for Trumpton which put them off the trail. I've not hiked but i did the little trek over to the Lighthouse at Neast Point. Not a long way admittedly, at least not from the car park but far enough on the day. The rain was horizontal blowing in one ear and out the other. . Skye itself is amazing. i wanted to see the settlement where, so i am told, some of the veterans from the battle of Waterloo settled but time forbade it. Am hoping to go back next year. Enjoy your Munros George... whatever they are

    Thank you for saying so. I see you live in the highlands. Just came back from Plockton near the Isle of Skye last week after six days holiday. I've never seen anywhere so beautiful.
  17. PaulMD
    Found it. Thanks again
  18. PaulMD
    Yeah. I've used one before for other vids. I was thinking there would be one specifically for RT. Maybe that isn't the case. I'll have to go and look for the old one I used on a previous CM game. Thanks for replying
  19. PaulMD
    Actually, does anyone know if there is a mod to get rid of those annoying red crosses that come up with the casualties. They ruin perfectly good shots (no pun intended) when trying to film the action and they spring up.
  20. PaulMD
    Damn. I was just about to post a vid of this battle and find you've done one already. Looks like we tried a different approach (as the Germans) but both still got beaten. It looks like you have some mods going on in there too. Do you know what they are? Here's my version of TANKOVYI DESANT. It's a bit of a slow starter but hopefully the end is worth it. I also didn't put in a story line thinking on this occasion it was best left to the viewer. Another thing I left out was the music as some people commented on YOUTUBE they couldn't view it due to some issues with copyright in the country they were living in. Hope you enjoy it.

    HI BlueNoobs. Glad to see you're still making vids. I've got the commonwealth module myself and really like it. You HAVE shortened the shots which definitely makes this more interesting for me and gives it a better pace, I think it is an improvement on the first one for sure. One thing I like is to use the zoom function to get really close to the action. My Favorite shot is at the one minute mark beside the burning German tank because it gives me the feeling of being there, on the ground. The frame rate issue??? I had a problem with that at one point and it turned out I needed to defrag my comp and I also noticed the fans that keep it cool were all dusty. I unplugged everything and VERY carefully vacuumed away the dust. It might help but as I say... BE CAREFUL So... nice one mate, glad your working on and thanks for sharing all your effort.
  22. PaulMD
    Thank you very much. it really is gratifying to have such praise. Think I'll start another one for the pleasure of playing the game and also for the satisfaction of doing another little video. This time I'll do a version without the music and maybe one with.
  23. PaulMD
    High praise indeed. I'm quite surprised that we don't see more of the engine in documentaries. It would be great for explaining tactics. Seeing what advances CM made from the original game when it came out way back, I can't wait to see what the future holds for tactical wargaming like this. I'm sure it would be a great traing tool as well for the army. I think they already use a game called Steel Beasts to teach about the principles of armoured warfare.
  24. PaulMD
    I keep saying I'll do one without music but then forget. I'll try to remember next time and do two versions. One with and one without music. By the way, your wishlist for cm2 is is great! Lets hope it comes true.
  25. PaulMD
    Seriously.... it was an absolute pleasure
