just like the title says; I'm kinda messing around a bit with eve for artistic purposes. I used to, when younger do timelapses of Airports, Bus stations, highways, etc and found it to be quite enjoyable so when I sat there infront of Jita's 4-4 and thought "Oh, this looks familiar" I couldn't resists.
The first try at this isn't GREAT but I still think it turned out pretty nicely! I'll keep adding more as I get them, eventually making a montage :)
Here's a link
ENJOY! ----------------------------------------

Edited by: Admrl Cain on 17/03/2010 05:02:53 I'll get some samples of each of the places ya'll have thought of tonight and have them encode so they'll be ready by tomorrow :) Better get my speed rifter out, looks like I have some travelling to do hehe
One thing: AA isnt working in eve for some reason even though I have my settings on my card maxed. That normal? ----------------------------------------

I figured out the AA/AF problem, had to do with HDR being enabled. Fixed that. My first little video I'm putting out is just Jita 4-4 from some nice angles :) Starting small so I can become familiar with the process.
But yes, these files are HUGE when raw. ----------------------------------------

lmao yup, I realized the bobbing removal technique last night.
And yes, it was a very slow evening at Jita 4-4. The next one coming up tonight is a favorite gate of mine, has a nice view of the sun and a creasent earth like world with lots of traffic and often a gate camp or two. Give ya a hint: within 3 jumps of Jita. This next one is 3:45mins long and has music. I'm off to work now but I'll let it render up so it's ready when I get home :)
I tried for the Amarr hub... couldn't get an angle I liked no matter how hard I tried. I'll probably try for that again. ----------------------------------------

Originally by: NightmareX Admrl Cain. What graphic card are you using?.
If you use an ATI card, you can use Anti-Aliasing and HDR on at the same time.
Not for my ati card then ;)
Here's another one I whipped up last night. This one actually has something to listen to. ----------------------------------------

Originally by: Serpents smile Very nice! Shows how beautiful and how peaceful EVE on the surface looks. What music is that?
Track 22: Ocean Deep The Choice is Ours - BBC Planet Earth OST
And yeah, I'll whip up a orbiting at 1km/s video with SG as Interest in a while. Got some orders to fill ingame first ;)
Any suggestions for some good locations to play with ingame? |

Originally by: Apoctasy 1. Remove the fraps counter in the top-right.
2. Get some more camera angles
3. Needs music
4. GET RID OF THE SWAY. I attempted to do a timelapse vid of jita 4-4 as well a long time ago and was absolutely disgusted by the swaying. Since there is no way to turn it off, you have to do it through some tricky video editing. This proved too time consuming so I quit.
1: Wasnt fraps, was an ATI-Tray's Frame Rate Counter - Second video didn't have it, check that out.
2: Montage is being worked on after I figure out the essentials and efficiently record some good footage.
3: Second video I posted has music.

Originally by: slockna Edited by: slockna on 19/03/2010 12:18:58 to have a decent quality on fraps you end up recoding at a massive file size. 15 mins of fottage for me of the jita 4 undock was nearly 17GB 1.13GB per min.
15 = 17GB
one hour = 68GB Five hours = 340GB
Even a very good computer cannot consistently catch for 5 hours at that speed, :-(
First off: Needs more cowbell.
Secondly: Yeah, those compression ratios are HORRIBLE. Imagine the time it would take simply encoding 340gb/5hrs of raw video in something like craps, it would take roughly 5-10x longer than the video's length itself... ick. |

Yer it takes about 30mins to do a 2 - 3 min vid in HD I hate to think what it would be for that much fottage.
There's the thing though - you can take 5hrs of footage and compress it down to 15mins pretty damned easily, in which case it could be rendered in a matter of 2-4hrs. Which is doable, if you have the RAM required (Might be different requirements for different editing software; I use Adobe After Effects CS3) |

'Shame time lapse with blur is hard to do.
Let me see if I can work out how to do this in AE...
I was thinking that Echo might work. Gonna try it in a bit. ----------------------------------------
