Here you go Jim. This is a guide for IL2, but it's the same principle.

Warning! This will lead to hours spent in FMB setting up that scenario you always wanted.

There are much simpler ways though. I simply record a mission, edit the views and perspectives in the in-game track editor (but the one in Cliffs is very buggy), frap the whole edited track at full speed with sound, then cut bits out and swap them around in windows movie-maker, adding music or speech as required.

As with all things, it can be as easy as my way, or as complex as Joe 90, barfly and biltongbru's offerings.

It is very addictive once you see your first results though.

Here's one of my first attempts from years ago as a bonus, done in IL2 with a pentium 4 and a ati 3850 (agp). Spot all the terrible stutters and bad editing!

Sorry for the hi-jack Freycinet!

Be my guest, I don't mind bumping....

My movies are as simple as they get: literally captured on the fly as I play the missions (Because I saw some slightly annoying inconsistencies in the track files). I might move a bit beyond that simplicity later, but it won't be before the summer..

The light doesn't move there faster just because you point at something far away

Thanks, but others make movies that are a work of art, I don't! - That one would go to Tinus Le Roux.

Nice one Frey.

I noticed your spotlights seemed fairly still. Last time I made something with the spotlights (month or so back) they were spazzing all over the place when enemies approached. If this is fixed, night missions sound much more appealing
