This is not a true statement:

Quote:

Twighlight of the Gods by Doktorkop
This is the first ever IL2 movie to successfully integrate CGI humans to produce a creative and engaging story. A moving story about Luftwaffe pilots in the closing period of WW2. Even though the Luftwaffe had the awesome Me-262 "Schwalbe" turbojet fighter, they were facing insurmountable odds of Allied bombers and prop fighters. This is the story of two of these pilots.

Doktorkop did his first movie with CGI effects long time ago:

Twighlight of the Gods is his latest one...

DoolittleRaider,Joe, thanks very much , as ive already said , im quite surprised at the level of interest in a ten minute movie with NO action in it.
With regards to MMF , im not deliberatly not posting there , the fact is im very busy trying to sort out everyones instalation problems with my sounds,soon as this is done ill upload fullsceen version to download at MMF(two weeks.LOL).
For shure there dosnt seem to be any new material coming from the big guns or the peashooters at the mo , being part of the competition last year showed how much talent is out there , most of which are producing nothing which is a shame.

cheers
Jafa.

No problem, Jafa. Do keep up the good work!

Thor, the statement is a subjective judgement by the panal at Flight Sim Machinima, quote "This is the first ever IL2 movie to successfully integrate CGI humans".

While it is true that doktorkop has used CGI humans before, the integration was not of a high enough standard to be accepted on FSM.

We have very high standards on the site as we want the whole community and the outside world to see only the best of the best. There are also a whole lot of my own movies that were not judged to be of a high enough standard.

Ah, ok then Joe.

Thanks for the explanation.

Is there a description of what is considered a movie on your site? And if so I have probably missed it lol.

I'm sure Joe will respond, but I'm also sure he won't mind if I weigh in with a comment or three in the interim. The decision to place a Movie at FSM is subjective. The "Board of Directors" of FSM, consisting of seven individuals with wide and varied experience, but with a common interest in IL2 movie-making, discuss any nominated movie at length, taking into consideration such factors as:

Originality
Cinematography
Editing
Story/Screenplay
Use of Filters
Use of Visual FX
Use of Sound FX (and/or Sound Mods)
Sound Tracks (Music, dialogue, Mixing)
Longevity...Will it stand the test of time (Is it worth viewing more than just once, twice, or many times)

Icons: A very specific factor, the presence of Icons, subtitles, HUD, on-line text conversation, uncropped Fraps Logo, uncropped ping indicators, etc etc,etc, automatically disqualify a movie from inclusion at FSM.

The deliberation is subjective in that there are no points tallied per category/factor, no rating scales, no relative weighting of factors, etc. The final decision is by Concensus of the Board, with Joe 90 having the final decision. The strongest aspect(s) of each movie selected is usually expressed in the Text Synopsis for the movie at FSM.

Similarly, the Oleg's are awarded subjectively, after discussion, when some aspect (or many) of a particular movie are deemed to be especially noteworthy, and explained in the simple narrative accompanying the award.

Hope that helps a bit to understand the process.

Sounds are great but i got 1 problem with cannons sound - they are too quiet. Sound of machinguns are ok but sound of cannons are too weak.
How change these?

Excellent job Jafa as always

but you know what would've been awesome?

that some pilot get mad at other for flying to close and that initiates a fight! yeah, right in front of the people!

JU-88 colliding with the B-29, spitfire squadron chasing the P-51's, F4U and P-40's truning with the A6M's

F4F's desperate trying to get airborne before the fight ends, 109's and 190's getting alt to avoid the skirmish

ok just kidding, excellent job, a must download

regards
