Updated footage is just about fixed. Just have to add sound effects in the right places. And the Star Wars logo is starting further in the background than I'd like...have to see if I can adjust that. :)

"Unfortunately, even a transparency is regarded as a solid, so when the transparency is "on", any light source behind it is reduced to merely the image itself...the light won't shine through until the transparency is "off"."

I've noticed this too. Light and glow effects. Its a drag and more than once has screwed up a scene. Perhaps it could be fixed in a future version or update...? Looking forward to the updated scene Martok.

Hmmmm....I'm not so sure about that one, Colour. It's nice, but it would clash with the setup for my video.

BTW, I think you'll love the redux, once I get it posted. I've tweaked the lighting, the movement, and will redo the sound effects. I look at it now, and can see it is light years better than my first effort. :)

Re; My previous Post, here's a quick demo clip of Star Wars Title, where the stars are coming towards the camera. I can change text, Script, font, size  & colo(u)r, to match your's.

I should be able to Delete the Text & still have the Stars coming towards the camera after the Title has finished. Then you add the Starship zooming-away into the stars.

ok, now this is the point where iClone starts to SUCK!!!!!!!

I cannot change ambient lighting in mid-scene.
I cannot bring up Director Lights one and two in the timeline.

As far as the timing goes for the Star Destroyer, that's something that is quite a bit of give and take.

See, when they shot the movie, believe it or not the model for the Corvette was actually larger than the Star Destroyer.

In my shot, to refine it, I have to use two Star Destroyers at different sizes, just so I can try to come close to the imagery we saw on the big screen version. :) I think it turned out quite a bit better. Still have to do the laser bolts, which I've also refined for size as well as firing time.

I've only skimmed Warlord's Tut Space Ship Project. However he has some pretty mean Galaxy Images Content that go with.

I'll double-check  the Content. However, I wouldn't be able to Post Images on the Forum. You would need to purchase the Tut.

I'll check my proDAD Heroglyph Templates for "Twinkling Stars" If yes, I can Input your Text using Hero's Starwars Template. Render that to File DV-AVI & Upload to MediaFire Website for you to Download as a Full Screen Video Background? 

BTW - The StarWars Title should fade into the distance & not "Hang" as tiny indiscenerable script.

I'll have a dig-around, to see what I can come-up with.

ADDED - Ok - Had another look at the Clip.

It would look good if the stars are Zooming in, while the Logo, Title & Starship Zoom out. Then you'd get the effect of the Starship travelling through space. Heroglyph has the tools to do that.

I think the ships looked pretty amazing - good attention to detail there.

My biggest complaint (and I haven't compared the scene to the original to see how they dealt with this originally) is how flat everything looks, from the moon in the backdrop to the ships. I think part of it was lack of contrast or low-res background textures, and part of it was the lighting - hardly a shadow to speak of.

Good luck with your project!
