amazing, really
RE: ~Cinematic Main Menu Mod - WIP - No Author - 01-21-2013
Did you use scripts on the map or you used something else ?
RE: ~Cinematic Main Menu Mod - WIP - Statyk - 01-21-2013
No, I described it in the OP. Its an entire level re-mapped in Maya and attached to an animated bone.
You can't script a menu map =P
~~~
Experiment for tomorrow:
- Render errors could possibly be caused from the shear size of the model (its scale is 1:1 compared to the original level). I'm going to try to detach the bone, shrink it down to half its normal size, and re-work the animation. Hoping to get this fixed D:

Fraps slows it down a lot for some reason. When I don't have Fraps running, it gets to about 30fps. With fraps running, it gets to about 15fps... But I'll try changing the animation framerate in Maya and see if that fixes it.

Spoiler below!
But thank you anyways =P

Yea, Fraps is known to be very bitchy with the CPU.
RE: ~Cinematic Main Menu Mod - WIP - Statyk - 01-22-2013
Well, I made a smoother animation, a bit lengthier, added details I forgot (spiderwebs, level door, and fixed a ceiling texture clipping issue) and the size of the animated area is half the size of the original Entrance Hall.
The render errors aren't as consistent... But they still exist... And it's really bugging me because I had it without render issues ONCE, and had to fix something, and it never happened again. I'm so close to finishing this... I just want it over and done with D|
Lighting: Complete (edited brightness because Fraps likes recording things darker than normal)

Statyk with his creations never disappoints! Marvellous work again!
RE: ~Cinematic Main Menu Mod - WIP - Statyk - 01-22-2013
It's not marvelous unless it works DX lol But thank you, I appreciate it <3
RE: ~Cinematic Main Menu Mod - WIP - Rapture - 01-22-2013
Wow that looks great, the brightness is perfect.
In the far-far-far future, would you be willing to animate another map if we hosted a competition for the "best looking cinematic opening"?

You will finish it
I know that xD
RE: ~Cinematic Main Menu Mods - Finished: 1 - Statyk - 01-24-2013
FIXED IT, SOLVED IT. Finally... Turns out a joint can only holds 1-4 entities in the model. I had 1 joint in the scene and about.... 40 entities. So I had to add more joints so each joint can hold one entity. It all works now. Check out the OP for a preview and download. Enjoy! =]
I'm taking a little break on these for now. I'll think about adding more cinematics later. |D
