Hi, Gosh thanks. I was really praying and thinking about making songs for the game myself, after my music pastor walked away and did not want to help me. Tom Solanto did a great job singing it and Mike did great on rock guitars. Well, I just made up a script and Nitro777 wife did the Hannah voices and Dan Silverman made the Hannah lady and Rueben man models. Nitro 777 did the animations for both Rueben and Hannah. Anyways, I made a simple movie level, that ended when the she says "WHAT ELSE CAN HAPPEN?" and then the arkdoor closes shut. After that, I just recorded in FRAPS the game race shots from the actual game and it made large .avi files. Then, all the big .avi files were pieced together using windows movie maker that comes with XP. Now, for the actual coding that made up the beginning story, I basically made up a master variable called startseq that kept track of timing and stuff. You can see this variable below. As startseq changed, then so did the views. Code:
action moviecam1 // first camera view - turns on at ZERO { my.pan=90;my.tilt=35; my.invisible=on;my.passable=on; //while (startseq < 0){wait(1);} sound_vol=100; vec_set (camera.x, my.x); vec_set (camera.pan, my.pan); }
action moviecam2 // second camera view - turns on at 3 , may i ask, what book are you reading? { my.pan=40;my.tilt=0; my.invisible=on;my.passable=on; while (startseq < 3){wait(1);} vec_set (camera.x, my.x); vec_set (camera.pan, my.pan); }
action moviecam3 // third camera view - turns on at 5 , rueben, do you actually believe in...? { my.pan=310;my.tilt=0; my.invisible=on;my.passable=on; while (startseq < 5){wait(1);} vec_set (camera.x, my.x); vec_set (camera.pan, my.pan); }
action moviecam4 // fourth camera view - turns on at 6 , well yes, I do... { my.pan=90;my.tilt=0; my.invisible=on;my.passable=on; while (startseq < 6){wait(1);} while(startseq == 6) { vec_set (camera.x, my.x); vec_set (camera.pan, my.pan); vec_set(temp, girl3.x); // point cam at girl vec_sub(temp, my.x); vec_to_angle(my.pan, temp); wait(1); } }
action moviecam5 // fifth camera view - turns on at 8 , rueben? { my.pan=250;my.tilt=0; my.invisible=on;my.passable=on; while (startseq < 8){wait(1);} vec_set (camera.x, my.x); vec_set (camera.pan, my.pan); }
action moviecam6 // sixth camera view - turns on at 9 , yes hannah { my.pan=70;my.tilt= -10; my.invisible=on;my.passable=on; while (startseq < 9){wait(1);} vec_set (camera.x, my.x); vec_set (camera.pan, my.pan); }
action moviecam7 // seventh camera view - turns on at 10 , yes hannah { my.pan=340;my.tilt=0; my.invisible=on;my.passable=on; while (startseq < 10){wait(1);} while(startseq == 10) { if (my.pan > 233){my.pan -= 1.5 * time;} vec_set (camera.x, my.x); vec_set (camera.pan, my.pan); wait(1); } }
action moviecam8 // eighth camera view - turns on at 11 , no hannah, i like books about animals { my.pan=30;my.tilt=0; my.invisible=on;my.passable=on; while (startseq < 11){wait(1);} vec_set (camera.x, my.x); vec_set (camera.pan, my.pan); } Anyways, it was a pain to make, but it worked pretty good, hahaha!

Here is some Hannah code below for the girl. If anybody wants to see the entire .wdl file, just PM me with an e-mail address to send it to. Code:
action hannahwalk { girl3=me; if (d3d_shaderversion > 1119){my.material = PPSun;} var dir=0; var char_animate;var timeran; my.shadow=on; while (startseq < 2){wait(1);} // wait till book reaches top of height, then sound off hannah
//ent_playsound(my,hannah1,500); // hi rueben, may i ask what book are you reading? snd_play(hannah1,77,0);
while (startseq < 3){wait(1);} my.frame=10; while (my.frame < 27){my.frame += 0.50 * TIME;wait(1);} // hi rueben, may i ask what book you are reading? my.frame=31; while (startseq < 4 ) // was 5 { if (my.frame < 35) { my.frame += 0.10 * TIME; } wait(1); } // stand animation only
my.frame=5; // stand while (startseq < 5 ){wait(1);}
while (my.pan > 130){my.pan -= 12 * time;wait(1);} // turn ent_playsound(my,hannah2,500); //rueben, do you actually believe in the bible story...? my.frame=27; while (my.frame < 37){my.frame += 2 * TIME;wait(1);} // rueben, sleep(0.33); while (my.frame < 53){my.frame += 0.40 * TIME;wait(1);} // do you actually believe in the bible story?
while (startseq < 6){wait(1);} while (my.pan > 177){my.pan -= 12 * time;wait(1);} // turn my.pan=180; while (my.x > 600){my.x -= 7 * time;char_animate += 10 * time;ent_animate(my,"walk",char_animate, ANM_CYCLE);wait(1);} // move her to x=600, then turn around... my.frame=5; // stand
etc, etc...

But, has anybody ever made a game movie with 3Dgamestudio and get this type of hits yet on youtube? Amazing...
Your video was featured on tigsource.com (amongst others), so I think that explains the huge youtube hits.
Still, I've had a good laugh with this movie too, it's funny,
Cheers

Hey, maybe I should quit game-making and get into movie making instead, huh ?!
Or maybe come back and make a RTS game next? Hmmmnnnnn...
You should do both man! You're definitely quite good at the first and there's a lot of interest for that latter. A 'biblical-RTS' can be quite interesting and entertaining if you don't overdo the theme. I think mostly this movie of yours scored because it's hard to tell whether it's fun for fun or fun for mockery..

And Metafilter, and Kotaku!
It's quite an achievement to be featured on those sites, congratulations yet again,
