00:28Welcome to a basic walkthrough
00:30of how to use the camera tool in World in Conflict.
00:32It will help you create your own movies from replays and multi-pair matches,
00:36and it's truly amazing what you can create if you put some effort into it.
00:40There's of course a lot more to do with the camera tool than I have time to show you now.
00:43This short is just to get you started.
00:47This is a situation I created that I think is cool to get on film.
00:50So now I just start off with activating the camera tool
00:53by typing scenecamnew and the filename in the console.
01:01When you've figured out which parts in your recorded game you want to film,
01:05just pause the game at the correct time using Ctrl-Z.
01:08Put out your first control point by moving the camera to the correct position and heading,
01:12and then press the I key to create the camera control point.
01:16It is possible to toggle the interface by pressing F10.
01:19When you are satisfied with your first control point,
01:22move forward in the replay using Ctrl-X for slow motion and Ctrl-C for normal time.
01:27When you are satisfied and want to create a new control point,
01:30pause the game again and move the camera to a new position and heading.
01:33Then place a second control point with the I key.
01:37Then just repeat this maneuver until you have covered what you want to record.
01:49When you are done, press F8 to save it.
01:54The recording is still paused.
01:56To see how the camera path will look and perhaps to do some changes,
01:59press F5 to get into the camera path.
02:02I like to remove the interface just so that I can see what it really looks like.
02:05Now use K and L to move forwards and backwards in the camera path.
02:11If you like to, you can adjust the control points.
02:13You can use arrows to pan and tilt.
02:19Banking is done with slash and asterisk.
02:23You can zoom in and out by pressing Home and End buttons.
02:28You can switch between control points by pressing Page Up and Down.
02:33Let's see what happens when I do some changes.
02:37And then go back and forth in the camera path.
02:42So let's say that I'm happy with this.
02:45Then I can save it by pressing F8 and exit from the camera path with F5.
02:51All the changes I showed you can be done in this mode too.
02:54Switch between control points with Page Up and Down or simply use the left mouse button.
02:59A downside with this mode is that you don't see the result of your actions right away.
03:03But you can jump into the camera path with F5 as shown before to see the results and save it
03:08again when you're satisfied.
03:10Then just create the rest of the camera path you need, repeating the same procedure as before.
03:15Okay, so next I'll show you how to turn this camera path into a film sequence.
03:20Now load the recording again and load your camera path by typing Scene Cam Load and the filename in the
03:25console.
03:26The camera will automatically find and follow the camera path you've created at the right point in time.
03:32You can toggle the camera spline by pressing F6.
03:36When the time is right, take the interface away if that's what you want and press the dot button to
03:41start the recording.
03:42You get a good idea of the result as the sequence is recorded.
03:45You will probably have to throw away a lot of material before you get that perfect shot.
03:50When the segment is over, deactivate the video recorder with the dot button again.
03:55Now I will show you a sequence from the same replay a few camera paths later.
04:00This sequence is edited together.
04:20As mentioned before, there are many more features available in the camera tool than what I just showed you.
04:25You can read all about it in the camera tool manual.
04:27So get started and create your own movies.
04:29I'm really looking forward to seeing some great movies that outshine what I've just done.
04:34Good luck!
