Not as good as the last one i think, rushed it coz i got fed up with it clogging up my HD

Youtubification absolutely ruined the music quality aswell, and i might render a high quality version to stick on UF at somepoint (as opposed to the low res one above)....

and its mostly TA based (CA, BA etc) with a few other things thrown in.

Not as good as your last two, but still great. Music was more annoying than anything else. A lot gundam footage in this one, which is good, but what was with all the nanoblobs stuff? I thought nanoblobs was abandoned. :S

Stop interrupting the nuke with your Spring logo!!!! It's very annoying!!!!

What's the map with the crenellated bridge?

What's the mod with flame chimney on mech?

Why just one frame of KP?

What's with the hobbit or whatever sliding?

Need less commander skating and more large battle like at the end.

wmv?

Oh. If I had the time.

What I think is, there needs to be a story, not just random stuff thrown at you. Look at the supcom trailer, it's the best thing about supcom by far.

The only other formats i can use means the filses ise is too big for youtube/UF etc

There was lots of KP in the last vid

I tried a story one (percy the peewee) with mized results

The hobbit thing (from B&W 2) seemed like a good idea at the time

commander skaiting - aye, whenever i make a vid i start out with a really detailed plan of what i want. I can imagine it perfectly, but then i come to do it and it takes so fgecking long i just get lazy and plonk a load of stuff in :p

Mods used were BA, Various CA reviosions, Nanoblobs, War evoloution and just the com from gundam (was planning on using more but i never play it so take alot of will power to sort it out) ^^

Edit: Opps, forgot comshooter

Percy the peewee was made of win, more vids like that pls (not that this one isnt cool)

nice work cabbage! :)

With story I don't mean silly little characters talking and stuff (that's cool aswell however), more along the lines of an unfolding epic battle or something, like the supcom E3 trailer vid. Some kind of connection between the scenes. Showing off different mods in the same vid makes it difficult of course, you'd have to make several small stories or something.

Here's a really good example of what I mean:

Benito's Tide of Darkness.

- the music in IV is: Danger (the bomb) - tontie only - cream anthems 2007

hmm, yeah not very interesting, I love watching ca :)..

anyway, the little guy falling down a hill was really odd and the com shooter stuff just seemed very... tech demo.

I liked the scenes where the karnageths were strolling through metalheck, the speedmetal flash deaths and I liked the battle tech stuff. I think largely though it was the music. It was kinda slow and repetitive. If the video built up to a dramatic ending it would be more interesting but it seemed like several clips stuck together without any direction to it all.

I definitely think doing something that has some more peaks and valleys would be good. That way during the slow parts you can show off effects and features and use the harder parts for units dying etc.

You know, I just happened to be thinking the other day "Maybe I'll steal Cabbage's thunder and make Spring Showcase IV for him," now you post this >.>

Like zwzsg said, the nuke explosion was nice, except that you constantly covered it with the Spring logo.
It got good near the end, but the music really hurt my ears.

Meh. It's not a bad vid, but it's not as good as the previous Spring Showcases.

Yay! My only map, Crossfire. The bridges came out really nice, I thought, but my newbishness on the natural bits of the texture really showed. Also, the bridges were scaled too small - as you can see on the video, it's hard to move many units accross them at once.

I did not like the intro. I did not liked all the commshooter parts. I liked the MH part. I like some some planes flying. I did not like that you showed stuff of another game. I liked the flashtanks driving @ speedmetal. I liked the commbomb. I like the view over comet. I liked the big battle on Artic Plains.
