I’ll make this deal with you G&G-Fan, when Adywan releases his edit in HD, I’ll consider incorporating limited parts of his edit. If he only releases a 1080 I’ll be very selective about what I would upscale.
That sounds awesome! Thank you!

Will there be a 1080p version of this? My computer can’t watch 4K videos.

I will release it in multiple resolutions.

For me the two big issues with SC38 Reimagined are the shakey cam and the lens flares. Not only they just a bad thing in general but they stand out like a sore thumb in the context of this 70s film. If those can be rectified I’ll be happy.
Do not DM me for edits. Whatever you’re looking for I don’t have it.

Ok. I’ll see what I can do with those two issues. Some of the shakiest camera fighting has already been removed because it was too over the top. I do want to tone down SC38 significantly. So no levitating crates on fire.

Red Leader death - enhanced test: https://streamable.com/m1ccvu
Changes:
added shot of Red Leader’s plummeting X-Wing
reduced shot of him yelling
moved and sped up POV cockpit shot
reduced shot of Luke looking out the window
Red Leader now screams right up until his death (heard over radio)
the X-wing colliding with the Death Star is now visible
enhanced explosion vfx and sfx
heil Palpatine!
Looking good!
Looking good!
Thanks. Cuts are so fast though. Will remove one of the shots probably to let it breathe slightly.

I really love the color grading, it actually makes the movie look almost new.

that is a combination of the 4k release and oohteedee’s amazing grading on D+77.

Love it too, never would’ve come up with this idea myself^^
The added vfx/sfx and impact of the x-wing is great. Very excited for your finish.
2021 could be great, your work and some clips of adywans ROTJ revisited.
I have a couple of questions!
This whole thing is looking neat. I’m very hyped to watch your renewed version of the space battle.
I have a couple of questions!
- Are laser shots throughout the film going to be enhanced (colored edges, white centers)?
- Have you considered to have the hyperspace tunnel visible from the Falcon’s cockpit when the heroes travel to Yavin? I believe Adywan and Hal’s edits feature this.

No I won’t be tweaking any laser shots. But if Adywan releases at least a 1080p, I might update my release a bit more later.
I was not aware of or considering the Falcon Hyperspace shot, but I’ll double check Revisited to see what Adywan did there.
In the final space battle there are a lot of new replacement shots. I’m working on the re-foley for that. Thanks for giving me some ideas!
heil Palpatine!
I think having the Falcon’s interior look like it’s in hyperspace is very important, it’s a pretty glaring mistake, I’m surprised none of the special editions have bothered to fix it.

I went back and found what Adywan did with the hyperspace tunnel. That’s a very easy fix, especially with the static cockpit; I can matte out the windows and replace the background. Plus it would be in 4K.
EDIT: I did something similar in the blade runner n-7 cut. Here I matted out windows of the spinner to add clouds: https://streamable.com/8gwf19

If you can do this it would be perfect. This is one of the most jarring genuine errors in the original and it’s good to hear it’s not difficult to do.
Since Adywan’s fixes are being discussed, there’s a little nitpick he does in his edit that I haven’t seen adressed anywhere else yet.
After the inspection team boards the Falcon inside the Death Star and Han and Luke lure in the troopers guarding the hatch, the off-screen altercation that ensues, originally heard with blaster fire, is replaced by a corporal struggle SFX.
It makes way more sense after that to see their stormtrooper guises looking completely pristine (more than assume the troopers missed once again at point blank, that nobody else heard the shooting or that our heroes would execute grunts so frivolously anyways).
I don’t know if its worthy including just that bit of the track but I figure it would be another one of Ady’s fixes to note (that and the wobbly doors, of course 😃).
Looking forward to the completion of yours!
Any updates Krausfadr? I see that Adywan is planning to release his episode IV edit in 1080p, so that might be helpful, eh?

Nope, he is using D+77 in 4K as his base.
I’m a huge fan of what Adywan has done. I believe he is upscaling his 720p release to 1080p. I’m working in 4K and for me, personally, an upscaled 720 is not high enough quality. I prefer a minimum of source 1080p. I’d incorporate such 720 source material very sparingly. Also sorry for the slowed progress but I took a short break from ANH to focus on a different fanedit project I’ll be releasing in the coming weeks or so. If you are a fan of Batman Begins the Dark Cut and wanted something similar done in 4K, you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

Awesome news!
And for ANH, take your time, don’t rush it 😃 I think it’ll feel great regarding vader/anakin and Ben will fight each other again in the series. For sure it will be more dynamic than in the original ANH therefore you edit fits well. some would say your edit doesn’t stay true to the original trilogy but I’m fine with that. Never liked the vader/Ben fight in the original.

What´s the status of your project krausfadr? Do you intend to wait till 4k77 v2.0 is finished or are you still using othedees v2.3?
