ninjaholic Gallente Burn the Jolly Roger Phoenix Rising Alliance	Posted - 2007.10.01 13:52:00 - [1] I hope you guys like this idea, and it gets implimented! Similar to Battlefield 2, and Half-Life 2's Demo record feature, Eve Online should have a Battle-Recorder, so that you can just record detailed data on a ship fight, then edit, save and play it back at a later date, allowing you to Fraps it then, instead of in the middle of the fight, reducing lag and freeing up the amount of load your comp has to deal with. PVPrs in serious fights want high FPS, and low client-side lag, fast load-times and quick computers. Sometimes hard to do with a video recording program running in the background. The idea is the addition comes in two 'flavours' (I'm Irish, so it's spelled flavours ok?) The Battle-Recorder, and the Battle-Player. Features: BATTLE-RECORDER + The ability to pre-record camera tracks, for dynamic camera angles, pans & zooms. + Set camera views to any ship, and focus on any other ship, similar to what was already recently added to the EVE camera in-game. + Key-stroke and Mouse recording allowing user-controlled camera shots, and the option to exclude the mouse cursor and the in-game GUI from the final 'cut'. + Timeframe and key-stroke editor, allowing fine-tuned control on the where the camera is, doing what at any part of the timeline. + Snapshots, allowing those perfect Kodak moments to be captured. (Preferably in 24 bit Windows BMP format, or PNG's) BATTLE-PLAYER + Plays-back the previously recorded and saved battle, in full-screen or in windowed mode, perfect for anyone who doesn't want to Fraps at 1280 x 1024, and want to just capture a particular window.

ninjaholic Gallente Burn the Jolly Roger Phoenix Rising Alliance	Posted - 2007.10.01 18:52:00 - [3] Lol I KNOW Fraps, duh, but I'm suggesting a much more powerful way of making movies with depth and character, not just your gui and a screen full of squares red or blue stars on em. Up close explosions, camera following torps as they slam into a Moros or something. Any fool can blow things up and Fraps it, it takes skill, time and thought to make a video of the scale that the Eve Online guys make themselves.

Clansworth Point-Zero SMASH Alliance	Posted - 2007.10.02 18:39:00 - [5] Fraps has to be 'edited' real time, in that the camera movements have to be done at recording time. A true recorder would not record the video at all, but record the events/movements/actions, and save it to some sort of log file. This could then be used as a basis for much more robust video creating, as camera's could be positioned optimally, switched between locations, and generally kick the proverboal donkey.

Lou Takki	Posted - 2007.10.02 21:55:00 - [6] This could be implemented like what Halo 3 does, basically not recording any kind of video or such but instead recording "Game State" and then regenerating what happened using the game engine later. This results in extremely small file saves compared to what a video capture takes in terms of file size. However, you would have much more game state data to save than a Halo 3 file, due to grid size. I could see this being extremely difficult to implement if was not envisioned from the original design of the client itself. Lou Takki,
ninjaholic Gallente Burn the Jolly Roger Phoenix Rising Alliance	Posted - 2007.10.05 09:56:00 - [7] Exactly, just recording the state of each item on a timeframe, which you could then play-back, and make an amazing user-created video out of!

Basically an extended "logging feature" reacording each visible objects type, direction of travel and speed, plus some details on animation and weapons fire should do it. Once recorded, using the engine itself to "play" it back should simplify the job of the "cameraman". I like the idea, and have suggested a similar concept a few years ago. SIGNED

I could see this being extremely difficult to implement if was not envisioned from the original design of the client itself. Whatever game state data there is, it's being sent to your client, which not only limits it to at most a few dozen Kb/sec, but it also means that it's already going to you. All CCP would need to do would be to provide something that captured that game state over time (probably by plugging into the client somewhere), and saved it for later viewing. Doesn't seem that difficult to implement to me.

Greme Amarr Slacker Industries Exuro Mortis	Posted - 2007.10.06 23:53:00 - [12] I was thinking of this exact same idea a while ago. However, coding a feature such as this would probably take more coding than ccp have going spare :P

LETS ADD A FEATURE WHICH MAEKS EVEN MOAR LAGZ!1! LOL! It's hard to lag a server when you're not connected to Tranquility which you wouldn't need to be for this to work. ALL of the models and information is already on your computer when you installed it. You wouldn't even need to log in. Or be connected to the internet. And I'd prefer if you were going to argue against the usefulness of my idea, that you'd have the decency to speak English. This aint local in BoB space. These are the forums, and comprehension and grammar might be required. Originally by: lofty29 No. Deep. REAL deep Originally by: lofty29 Also, it would remove alot of the skill in Frapsing well. Now this is LOL material, skill in Fraps-ing? All I've seen is "F9 - Warp in - blow up - F9" material. Mostly in fast-forward. With bad music, and cheap captions, thrown together in Windows Media Encoder, and encoded using the Matroska codec. All this would do is massively increase the amount of skillfully Fraps'd videos. Might even open up an entirely new business in Eve Online, the role of a Director, to take other people's (lazy people or people without the skill or time to create it themselves) demo files, and make them into slick PvP videos. Maybe even Alliance propaganda videos. Your arguement is unsubstantiated to be honest.
Greme Amarr Slacker Industries Exuro Mortis	Posted - 2007.10.07 11:31:00 - [15] Originally by: lofty29 OMFG FLEETZ R 2 LAGGEH! LETS ADD A FEATURE WHICH MAEKS EVEN MOAR LAGZ!1! LOL! Technically, the only person who would receive more lag is the one who is recording the "demo", though even whether said person receives more lag would be questionable. The demo recorder (as with all/most in other games) is a data recorder which is client side, and stores a client side log of game events (for example, in FPS games it stores the level, location of all objects and players, and events such as 'Dude1 shot dude2'). There should be no increase in load on the server AT ALL, and only a slight increase in lag on the part of the recorder (who's choice it is to use the demo recorder anyway). Oh, and to ninjaholic's comment about all eve videos being just 'Hit fraps with hud up and record'. Go take a look at some of the higher quality videos, such as those done by Loxyrider, Dire Lauthris etc. They are far, far from what you describe. I believe it wouldn't remove skill from frapsing, but simply increase the tools available for new shots. For example multiple views of the same encounter (you could splitscreen a battle from opposing sides and keep it timelocked), or acquisition of shots that you may not have even realised were there before (even well seasoned frapsers can miss that great shot of an inty sweeping through the battlefield as they simply could not see the inty). As I said before, I would welcome the idea, but I believe the amount of coding required to create such a feature would be horrendous, and I would have thought that CCP would have already implemented this if they deemed it possible and not counter-productive.
Presidente Gallente Pirate Hunters Inc Exa Nation	Posted - 2007.10.07 12:55:00 - [16] It would be great to record game data which is send between client and server. Like what we now from many other multiplayer games. It's ofc great if you can re-play a whole battle with the client, switch cameras, ships etc. But I think that the recording will just produce too much lag. CCP should give check that and they know if that makes technical sense or not. Pres G +++ JOIN PAP +++
Erim Solfara Amarr House of Solfara	Posted - 2007.10.07 12:57:00 - [17] Recording clientside would create next to no additional lag on top of network lag surely, after all, your client is recieving all the information about people and velocities etc ANYWAY, all it needs to do is write down each snapshot to the hard drive, and it'd be less data than a screenshot. I'm not pretending to be an expert, in practise it may be totally different, but an official opinion would be nice (not that we'll get on in features and ideas) A new tool in the fight for balance?

With all due respect I hope you're not ^^ I suppose all we can do is see what CCP has to say But do you think it's a good idea? And one that, if possible, would benefit the Eve Online community? IMO it's a great idea to record a script which will re-play the whole battle by the client app. I know such stuff from +simple games½ like SSX on XBOX. It's just worth to implement if that will not cause more lag to all. With such a feature you should be able to create awesome cuts. Probably it could be possible to playback smooth and perfect then?! You can eg. turn off all HUD graphics and create as an spectator in a +camera ship½ incredible pure and beautiful battle stuff if CCP would implement an export to some movie formats. FRAPS works fine so far but it's not really flexible. It's more like shooting in +documentary½ which works great in many cases. It creates tons of data you need to filter an organize. Doing PvP and beeing a creative DoP at the same time is totally stressful. Works good with missions but not in PvP. For bigger battles you better use some cloaked DoP's to record as much as they can more flexible. The more material you have the more interesting the movie cut will be. A re-play feature in EVE by the client app would be super-nice. I doubt that CCP will implement it if that affects too much server side performance. Pres G +++ JOIN PAP +++

Techkraft Amarr Chickens with an Attitude	Posted - 2007.10.08 12:19:00 - [21] A game I played years ago (RTCW-ET anyone ) on Clanbase, had that feature. You could replay anything your client could 'see'. So if you went on the map to a place you weren't at the time, you couldn't see it (cause the data wasn't I guess). Made great movies afterwards and people used each other recordings, so you could share the experience of the actual player with very small file sizes and different angles (a demo what we called it was something like 1 MB for 10 mins...). The best thing of this was that it greatly decreased lag compared to realtime frapsing (FPS of 100-300 depending on pc and map instead of 30). Could you imagine watching the yesterdays fleetbattle, by just downloading a few mb's? What we stand to loose are the players that make great real time fraps, but what we gain is more and better footage. I know players that do top noch PvP, but never record it cause of there pc's can't hack it real time. Would dramsticly increase the skill requierd to make a really cool vid (your whole fleets send you there demo, scouts send them, cynopilots standing by, heck even the enemy etc.). /signed!

There will be no additional lag if the client is written properly. Likely there is time stamp data with each client/server sync and the client buffers this data in a heap of some predetermined size. Providing another thread can read from this heap and buffer to another heap for purposes of ordering the data chunks by time stamp, and then subsequently write the copy buffer to disk, it should work well enough. The problem is how is data buffered now. Is the heap locked by a sync object, what kind of object, is this object used for other things - does this cause the potential for access violations and other nasty surprises. The Eve client is currently sorely lacking in threads and has some resource management leaks here and there, though much better about that now than it once was. It is not tough to do this sort of thing, the issue is how to do it and not break something, something that was never considered in the design.

ninjaholic Gallente Burn the Jolly Roger Phoenix Rising Alliance	Posted - 2007.11.03 01:08:00 - [26] Edited by: ninjaholic on 03/11/2007 01:13:10 Edited by: ninjaholic on 03/11/2007 01:11:43 I'm actually surprised that this feature wasn't originally intended for implementation in the original client, as CCP could easily use this themselves for their own competitions and videos. I'm sure that if it was thought of, and attempted, then there must be a reason that it's not included in the final Eve version that we know, play, love and sometimes hate at present. And if it wasn't attempted? Well there are lots of parts to the Eve Online current client that I don't understand, and won't pretend that I'm going to in the short term, as my experience and understanding of how programs work is at best limited to nothing or less-than. However you make a good case Adunh Slavy. There must be somewhere for the data the client receives to go, and to enable writing of that cache of information to a file for later retrieval wouldn't kill the client, nor require any major core-code overhauls, seeing as it as to deal with that information anyway, the difference being that the information is just written to a file (on-demand of course) instead of [insert fate of cache here]. I'm STILL hoping that one of the programmers/code-monkeys spots this thread and takes the opportunity to explain it from the perspective of a person who stares at the bare bones of the client code on a daily basis, and would be willing (without disclosing too much technical information, or breaching copyright law/non-disclosure-agreement) give us a clearer picture of the possibility of having a battle-record tool in the client one day, and how that might work, without rewriting any of the core-code of the current client, creating a lag-free, powerful and useful tool for making those fleet operations into superb videos. Originally by: Adunh Slavy The problem is how is data buffered now. Is the heap locked by a sync object, what kind of object, is this object used for other things - does this cause the potential for access violations and other nasty surprises. Exactly what I was thinking. There must be something that CCP would rather not disclose, or open up, due to the possibility of a more insecure client. I'm sure that modified clients are already a problem, (as was mentioned in the ISK seller argument on a Dev Blod Podcast), and to allow write-caching of the current data might give the coders who created the modified clients a better understanding on how the client uses the data it collects. Allowing them more control over it, and a greater understanding on how to manipulate that data. Though, we could speculate this endlessly (or so I originally thought, it seems that many more people are beginning to think that this is clearly possible ...), the only people that would be able to clarify this are members of the coding team at CCP, and getting a member of the code-monkey staff, or similarly enlightened individual(s), to express their opinions on it here is proving much more difficult than I thought. I wouldn't be delighted, per se, if one of them came on and said: Quote: No! Impossible!! but at least it'd be some sort of closure. And I could then get over it, instead of being lazy and asking CCP to modify the client so that I, (though, many other people too) would have an easier time making videos than the Eve client currently allows ^^

Breal D'nie	Posted - 2007.11.03 02:50:00 - [29] Great idea! as for the program itself, to me its simple. it could be an external program that simply records all data transfered through the EVE Port (26000 i think). thats all it would do, therefore very little lag. essentially not interupting the data stream at all, and using very little cpu/ram as it wouldn't have any rendering to do, or sound to create. the recorder would autosave a new file with time/system/character stamp on it every time u jumped systems. after the battle is finished, you would open the recorder, load the time/system/character file you wanted. then the battle player/movie maker would then "emulate" the eve client, however instead of reading port 26000 it would then be recieving data from the recorder. in the emulation you would have control over all features from the op. Im not a tech by anymeans, but it seems relativly simple program to create, nearly all the major file work is there already. /signed

It's more like shooting in +documentary½ which works great in many cases. This is one of the best analogies I've heard of the situation actually. The "battle recorder" would allow a single person to grab multiple shots of the same situation, allowing true cuts in the action without the need for about 3 people frapsing the same battle and then spending a while sending compressed (read lower quality) videos to the editor.

Jaketh Ivanes Amarr Do Or Die And Live Or Try	Posted - 2007.11.09 14:51:00 - [39] Let it be a 100% client side tool. It should record the state every 5 seconds or so. Recorded info: Each players ship and fitting (like, typhoon with 4 800mm AC, 3 cruiser and 1 nos), 1 time event at arrival of either cameraman or player. Each player's location. Active modules and targets. Ofcourse the boom's. By only recording the location the tool should be able to extrapolate speed and direction of any ship, also orbits. Only true problem is, you don't know the damage dealt by the other players around you. So you don't know if a shot mis or hits. So the data you receive from the server has to include hit/misses from every player in the battle. Probably not the worst thing to send to the clients. So its not much extra data need from the server before such a tool could be made. The models can be extracted from the client along with graphical effects. The various ships states are already sent to every client. I wouldn't use such a tool my self, but would love to see the movies that enthusiasts could make with it Or in short: I fully support this idea, just wish I had some leverage in CCP.

Hit/Misses and damage per shot should not need to be recorded, simply that shots took place (the miss/hit makes no difference to the graphical representation of the shot). Similarly, ship loadouts should not need to be saved (except for guns, as they would affect the graphical representation of the ship), merely (x uses armour boost - show fancy green graphic). This will also stop the problem that would arise as people would use the tool to attempt to discover the setups of their opponents. If only events are recorded, the 'tactical' use of the tool would be kept to a minimum.

However, I realise it may be VERY hard to implement, and CCP probably have better things to be doing such as fixing bugs. Nonetheless, this would be much better than FRAPS, and could lead to some really cool videos. ====== Proud pilot of the 'Drainpipe of Doom'

Just want a tool with which to expand the horizons of the very talented people out there that already put a lot of work into their eve videos, and already do an amazing job! This tool would save them time and effort, and allow them to take the tedious nature out of user-controlled, in-realtime, mid-battle camera work! LAG-FREE fight-record tool needs your support!
