Two SSM2007 movies
« on: April 06, 2009, 03:11:52 PM »
I have recently recorded two short SSM2007 movies (primarily for a bunch of GT Legends race simulation friends), but I thought that I would add links to them here. The first one is STS-47 Endeavour landing at the KSC, and is entirely from the 2D HUD perspective (a bit of a hot landing). The second one is a compilation of shots of the STS-1 Columbia launch from several different angles (this seemed to be a bit darker than normal for some unknown reason....the saved T-1 minute option seemed a lot brighter).

The shots before and during the initial launch phase are too dark for my liking. I ran the pre launch phase from T-1h50m, so maybe a glitch caused the light level to stay relatively low? In a normal launch, the shuttle appears quite bright to start with, and then reduces in brightness around the T+35s mark, but the exact opposite happened in this case!

Very strange.

I am also a bit puzzled as to why there isn't a HQ option for these videos. My two race simulation movies have this option, and the SSM2007 ones were exported from Serif MoviePlus 5 in exactly the same way (Best Quality; High Speed Broadband).

It just needed to be a touch slower  :)

Maybe Uri-ba will add the links to the Wiki "User Videos" section?

YouTube video of the STS-1 Columbia landing. I think that I nailed the speed and runway alignment this time  ;)

I have created a new version of the STS-1 Columbia landing, plus landing movies of STS-8-41C-51A-26-27. I will also be making a new, extended version of the STS-47 Endeavour landing movie (now that I realise that I can land the shuttle further down the runway than I had assumed; I will be able to bleed off the extra 40 knots before touchdown, which is something that I have done successfully in my other recent practice landings). I have also removed the STS-1 Columbia launch movie, because it was too dark.

As for the Wiki page, I have registered, but I am still not sure what I am supposed to do with respect to adding my movies. I can see the EDIT buttons, but I have no idea how I upload the movies, or where I need to put them.
