Marvelous!!! That shot has always bugged me, but now it looks great!!!

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

Adywan, did you get the fan on the north bridge fixed yet? Did/do you have to replace the whole motherboard or just the fan? Have you done anything to them to make the buildings look less CGIish? The problem that I have with the new buildings in ESB SE is the added CGI shots stick out like sore thumbs. You didn't do anything to make them the added CGI blend in better in ANH Revisited, or did you? Are you or have you done anything to the CGI shots in ESB to make them blend in better with the rest of the film?

How are you using your computer right now then? I added more to my previous post about the CGI buildings.

i'm not. i've commandeered my wifes netbook. I grabbed the pic from my  external USB drive that contains the backup of the finished ESB:R shots.

I did tweak some of the CG shots in ANH:R. the dewbacks had a green tint in the shadowed areas so i fixed this to match the real life shadows. A lot of the time the old CG does have a strange coloured tint to the shaded areas so fixing this does go some way to making then blend better.

Don't let it get you down Ady, I know it's difficult but the internet can be a tricky place.

Give someone a mask and an immunity to the immediate consequences to whatever they want to say and they can either act like saints (as do the majority of the people on this site) or they can act like devils.

I wish I could help you with putting back what Jeditray has withdrawn from what he seems to feel is the Bank Of Adywan but recently my spare change has been sent elsewhere.

I hope your family is doing better than before Christmas and try not to let this sort of person get through your armour.

You are doing remarkable work under astonishing circumstances and I think it says something that the recent Blu-ray hubbub barely got my pulse racing but when given the challenge of finding a tiny gray splodge which might someday assist you in making a barely noticeable improvement to one of your projects, I got into a genuine fluster trying to identify the thing and post an indicating picture up while the sighting was still fresh.

When visiting  a group of relatives of a certain age (like my age) recently all of which have rather nasty health problems, one of the things we talked about at great length was this site and specifically your work.

Whenever the subject comes up we all become excited children again.

It seems that you are so skillful at using a computer the you can paint a smile on a stranger's face from quite a distance away.

So chin up, KBO and don't take your eye off the prize.

Unreal. Just wow. Ady, hang in there man. Personally, I would have gone to the cops with that. Just sayin'. I'm now done with the subject.

So, at this point are you just waiting on the blu-rays? Just curious. =)

Hey man, just a quick question, are you planing on keeping the original project files for this so that you can do a 1080p version later by just replacing the source files?

Cheers!

I'm not sure it will be that easy, as newly created elements will only be in 720p...

Donation made. ady, you've got a PM (no rush).
I don't know how close you are to cancelling out that overdrawn fee, but I'm sure our combined efforts have at least tripled that JT's donation.

Gee, JediTray/Kenobius is kinda a butthole.

On an unrelated note, yesterday when I saw the new name for the ANH:R thread with "2016," I thought it was this thread, and ESB:R was due out in 2016.

My first thought was "damn, that Wampa is going to be impressive."

Hey Ady,

I wanted to congratulate you on everything you've done so far with both ANH and ESB.  I've been following the thread for a long time.

Have you found any use for cloud tank effects?  I've been shooting some cloud tank footage for a short film.  I have files at 720/60p and 1080/30p slowed down to 40% and 80% respectively to create 24fps cloud effects.  They composite easily with a luma key and could be a great resource for nebula and other cosmic phenomena.  Some of the footage could also spruce up cloud city a little bit (although I've seen the progress you've made already).  They're all in easily manageable .mov files that Vegas 10 takes like a charm.

neato looking nebula, eh?

Gotta say that one of the best things about adywan's edits is the improved look of his starfields.  But this kind of effect is not one that I'd like to see done to the original trilogy's style of starfields, personally speaking.

Reminds me more of the intro to Alien than Star Wars. I like the deathly colorless stars in the originals.
