Project 117 episode 7 news

Now that episode 6 has been completed and released almost a week ago,
we can concentrate at the task at hand, getting the stage set for eradicaion act 2
That will take some time as the map Orbital is fairly small and simple,
so i'll have to see what i can change about that,
As soon as the map is done i can focus on eradication, untill then project 117 will be
released,.
Only three episode's left, home stretch i suppose, it's had a good run, had shares of it's up's and downs.
But in time new series will be made and ofcource project 117 will be archived so it won't go to waist,
i have learned alot from it's devellopment and will use that to my advantige in future shows.
But it's not over yet, episode 7 will be released fairly soon, i think a sunday release if i can get the voices done in time.
I will ofcource be looking into the three new maps and find out what i can do with them.
Sandbow is a huge map to play around in, everything you see can be deleted and remade.
But enough talk, time to get into action and finish project 117...

Time

It seems time is not on my side on this one.
And neither are the devellopers,
All games that i wanted are coming out at once
and i am a gamer at heart, just now i downloaded
gta the lost and the damned.
Wich is well what you would expect.
More of the same with some new weapons and missions.
Don't think that it's not cool, it is realy great.

But in the note of machinima.

Project 117 episode 6 status: Ready to film... Expected release sunday/monday, if i don't get interupted agian. Could be sooner i don't know what effect working monday had maybe extra money or saterday off.

Eradication is still on hold till i get halo wars with the new maps.
But i am writing all the acts getting the story together.
But i have to say it's getting intressing.
But that's my opinion you will have to decide on that yourself.
The characters are getting together and more actors are joining in.
So this will be angels of death bigest production up untill now.

unexpected development

So everything is done, all software has been updated
i was ready to go and bang...
I get a call from my boss and i have to go to work today.
That was unexpected...
So no time for project 117?
Maybe, i'll have to see when i get back, probably at 7.
I'll update you guys later today.

status update

I'm currently updating most
of my software to new versions.
And installed my vista 64 bit.
It will make full use of the 4GB of ram
in my laptop and will be faster with rendering
the new video's and ofcourse update sony vegas
from 9.0a to 9.0b wich fixes the problem i had with
mpeg files that they randomly corrupt in sony vegas.

if all goes like planned the episode will be far done at
the end of the day and out this week.

anather status update

So yea
project 117 has not been released yet.
Why you ask?
Lack of motivation and anather system crash.

The system crash was my fault i caused it, and i did not have a solution to it.
The lack of motivation speaks for itself, so many things go wrong in the procces
i need to find a way to make it easyer then it is now,
i need to film it in mpeg and convert it to Wmv then i can use it in
sony vegas or it will corrupt the file and i need to re-do it agian.
I did however save the files for the new episode.

maybe i'll have some time tomorow i want to finish this
i decided after episode 9 project 117 will end.
Then i can focus on eradication and keep working
with dellaro studio's and viperstorm.
There are some projects in the works from both side's.
I will keep you all updated on the progress with all projects.

some lack of time?

So you guys are wondering why
the new project 117 isnt out yet?

Lack of time, ive been hard at work
and basicly its really decreasing my
own free time, so its taking longer
then expected,
But some good news, i got a fourth controller
for eradication and project 117,
Some of the scripts were rewriten to fit
3 controllers, that can change now.

unexpected issues

I was working on the new
episode of project 117, as you
all know i have made a transition to
16:9 format instead of the normal 4:3.
This has lead to unexpected issues...
The new files are rendered in MPEG instead
of the normal AVI.
With this i did not expect sony vegas
to flip on me, and thus corrupting the files
as soon as they are rendered, so now i have to
film in MPEG and then convert to AVI.
Why not just film in AVI like i used to?
Pinnacle refuses to film in widescreen,
it rejects the 16:9 format while in AVI mode,
thus this will give me 3 times the work as it should be.
I have filmed a huge part of the episode and i expect it to be done
later this week.

On the note of eradication episode 2, most
of the dialogue has been done and now we need
to wait for the release of halo wars and the new maps.

transition from 4:3 to 16:9

As some of you may have seen, sinds eradicarion act 1
i made a transition from 4:3 format to 16:9 format.
Why you ask?
Almost every machinima and television series is 16:9 now.
So this helps in the cinematography of the machinima.
i will have to change the intro to project 117 to help it.
So yea there you have it.

eradication episode 2 release estimate...

It's pretty early to say when it will arive.
I can say that i NEED the mythic mappack
because of the map orbital.
As we all know it will come out with halo wars on the third of march.
I have pre-ordered the special edition a while ago so i will have it on release.
But release is pretty far away.

More on this later.

As on the project 117 side,
production can begin on episode 6
but i am feeling like total shit now so when i feel better i will begin.
