There has been no bashing going on towards him at all. If you think that peoples replies have been "bashing" then this would mean that he has been bashing people too then wouldn't it with some of the things he has said towards people who haven't agreed with him? I'm pretty sure that Angel is big enough to take some criticism or do you think that everyone should be worshipping him?

This is what happens when two very creative people with integrity clash.

I do feel that Vaderios is being spoken to a bit harsh here Adywan, I think these boards would be at a loss without him.

All of his views and suggestions are purely from an artistic stance.

I haven't spoeken to him harshly and it certainly wasn't meant to come across that way. And i didn't say anything about him not being or not wanting him on these boards either. I think you have read something into my comments that weren't there

It's all gone mad in here.:) All this talk of re-framing and zooming shots to make them "more interesting" is madness and plain pointless.

vaderios said:

Make a shot from good to better and from better to best. Eveything nowadays has to prevized before the final product. So they calculate everything to the best possible result rather something simple.

And that's why most modern movies are crap. Just overblown music videos. You say that the OT cinematography is boring and needs to have all these weird re-framings etc to make it more like modern day film making, well no thank you. I find it pretty strange that you want to change all this to make the movies more interesting yet you are a huge Michael Bay fan? This is the guy who uses the same cinematography in EVERY MOVIE HE MAKES. He uses identical slow motion shots, slow pans, zooms etc every god damn movie. This is shit film making at it's finest. yes, some of his films can be entertaining upon first viewing but they are throw away films and i get so bored of using the same filming format over and over again. Give me the old '80's camerawork any day over this modern crap. You over-think something and it can turn into a turd. Sometimes the simplest option is the best.

And this is why i could never work with you on any of my edits and why 99% of your mockups i would never even consider, Vaderios. We have a totally different mind set. I'm also quite surprised at just how defensive you get if someone says they don't like one of your mock-ups.I think it's very disrespectful saying someone else's work is "crap" just because it wasn't done with today's technology. The matte work on the Star wars films was very good . It looked great and very convincing in the cinema first time around. the problem is that some have gotten use to the computer done mattes of today and forget that back then everything had to be painted by hand, with a brush and not on a computer.

I really hope notoriety is not the real motive behind your ideas.

And this is what is resulting in your defensiveness. I can say that he isn't the only one who mentioned this, although he is the only one that's spoken out in the forum. I've had a LOT of people contacting me about the same thing. Now this probably isn't your true reason for being here but i thought i would just point out what is being said because of how you sometimes come across. It may well be down to the language barrier how you come across at times and i really hope it is.

I have been asked quite a lot as to the reasoning why reason why i am not  working with you on Revisited and  why i wouldn't give you a copy of the workprint. Also people have pretty much tried to tell me that it's down to artist jealousy. Well that isn't the case at all.  I really do think you are a talented person but we're working from two completely different ideals. It would just never work on a professional level. But the main reason i won't is due to other matters, which i was never going to speak about, but with so many emailing or PMing me accusing me of being pig headed, jealous and other stuff, i think i need to set the record straight. It  is because of the underhanded things you have done behind the scenes. I really do not appreciate someone who tries to trade clips or his work in order to get the exclusive clips etc i have posted in the past for donators (and this isn't just hear say because i have been sent your correspondence). I have kept quiet about this for a long time but too many people now have been contacting me telling me that i should give you a copy of the workprint, so i needed to explain why i wouldn't. I'm sorry, but i just couldn't trust you. I need to be able to work with people that i can trust completely not to let things slip out. You also seem unwilling to help anyone when asked. So many times have i seen people ask how you have done things, and this includes me asking you also. You just give a sarcastic or cryptic reply but not once have you given a proper reply. IF you are indeed here to help out with the project then why do you keep your methods so secret? It could really help others with their edits. This is another reason why people are starting to feel that you were just here for notoriety only.

 

Now i really need to catch up with all the comments made since the clip was posted before this thread got bogged down with the dagobah matte.

There are a lot of very talented and knowledgeable people on here but i haven't come across any that can read minds. So how did you expect to get help when you just say crap like " it just doewnt wrk"? Then become a rude little kid when people are replying to you. Isn't that what a forum is for? You brought all this upon yourself with your crappy attitude after people tried to help you or answered you.....Oh, hang on. After reading your posts i see there may be a lanuage barrier so i better explain it again in your own language:

no my bad atitude came after people started talkiung down to me like im some child that doesnt know that theres guides to certain programs then continually copying and pasting what ive said to makes ones point........... in the other post the help was given and it was made clear that  what i was asking to do was probally impossible..so therefore was no sense in pursuing the matter anymore..also with this post...it was clear after few comments from some of you that it wasnt not worth my time to pursue as all i was gonna get was " go find the guides on their site and figure it out yrself" other than that most everyone on this site has been vry nice and helpful..im just srry this has gotten so far out of hand.....this is my last comment on the matter ....im not plaiing on posting anything again if i need help il go do my own research to save myself and yall any grief

No one talked down to you like a child at all. But you are certainly acting like one. You gave no indication of what the problem was other than saying that it doesn't work, yet you expect people here to magically solve it for you. I pointed you to Jdownloader's own forum where you would most likely find the solution to your problem so how the hell is that not helping you? And in your other thread it was not made clear that is was probably impossible to do what you wanted either. You really need to read replies properly. I pointed out to you that you would "struggle" with the editing you wanted to do because of the low specs of your PC and that you would be better off using Sony Vegas rather than premier because it's not as memory/processor hungry. Not once did i say it was "impossible", nor did anyone else. Hell i started doing my Revisited edit on a PC that had almost the same specs as you so it certainly wasn't impossible.  But your reply was "just forget it".  That was just plain rude after people were helping you. If you're going to act like a child then you shouldn't be surprised if people start treating you like one. You certainly need to go back to school and learn how to read because you seem to be reading things in peoples replies to you that aren't there.

ive already been made aware of that  and ive still cchosen not to use the program or ask for any help...yet stilll......

Are you for real? You haven't asked for any help? Well let's refresh your memory shall we:

jswert123 said:

yes can someone please help me with jdownloader ive never got that program to do anything

Well i can clearly read that you asked for help, which we gave you, then you suddenly change your mind AFTER we had given you the help. So why become such an ass towards people that replied to you?

In another thread you started you asked for help/ advice about video editing and it was given but you suddenly turned around and said "just forget it", now you do the same in here once someone has taken the time out to offer you the help YOU ASKED FOR.

You will find that people here can be very helpful, but peoples patience can only be stretched so far and you have shown an really bad attitude that will just get you ignored in the future.

I noticed that the TPM space battle scene shown in the documentary didn't received any kind of treatment. It was like the DVD version.

Yes, it has received the same treatment. The pink tint is gone and it also looks like Lowry have done the clean up because the colour of the engine glows have been almost lost, the same thing that happens in the 2004 OT set

and also theres no need to be like that toward novices who dont know everything

Be like what? I provided links that would help you with your problem with jdownloader. You gave no information apart from "it just doewnt wrk" so i'm really not sure how you expect people to be able to help you out when no one knows the problems

jswert123 said:

nope dont want any help

And if you're going to be like that then you won't receive any help either.

for those that want a less compressed version you can download it from here:

http://hotfile.com/dl/88901970/73c4bc6/RAISING_XWING_XMAS_new_link.mkv.html

There's another shot in the clip that is unfinished and that one is when Luke walks away from Yoda. The shot is actually finished but it was accidentally left out from this clip because i had the layer it was on in Vegas disabled when rendering. Not a biggie really but the floor replacement to cover the moving floor isn't complete in the online version.

I dunno if this has been mentioned or not, but it seems like after the SE was coloured all blueish, Yoda's eyes and skin become one exact colour tone - were you planning on making his eyes slightly more vibrant?

It might be just Youtubes compression because his eyes certainly don't have the same colour tone as his skin. The whites of his eyes have a neutral tone because i rotoscoped his eyes in almost every shot to eliminate this. if you turn the saturation all the way up you can see that the eyes remain virtually neutral:

guides and "how to" use the program isnt the problem it just doewnt wrk  like people say

Which is why i said there are "plenty of guides and help out there". Jdownloader has it's own forum and you may be able to figure out your problem there:

http://board.jdownloader.org/

But, as none said, without explaining what problems you are having then you can't really expect anyone to be able to help you

STAR WARS: EP IV 2004 <strong>REVISITED</strong> ADYWAN *<em>1080p HD VERSION NOW IN PRODUCTION</em>
Time

I didn't use any HD footage for the edit. I was too far into the edit before a HD source became available and i didn't want to start from scratch. There wouldn't be any benefit for me to release an upscaled version of ANH:R and i won't be doing a HD version of ANH:R unless a restored HD version of the theatrical edition miraculously shows up and we all know that isn't going to happen. You are better off letting a good player upscale the DVD

Speaking of which, having seen your pics V, I guess another question for Ady:

Are all of the TIE fighters going to have red engines visible from behind?  I'm not sure if all of the rear shots of TIE fighters/bombers/etc retain visible red engine glows.

I'm trying to add the engines to all rear shots of the TIEs but some are just too difficult to track so it's likely that some TIEs won't have them

vaderios said:

Ady I think (not sure) you mentioned that you will reuse the same shot that piet says "yes my lord" in the tractor beam shot because when Piet says for the first time Yes my lord its from an other shot and the officers and the BG is not match.

So i have to ask if this is true. Logically you will replace the background from vader too in the close ups because its the same/flipped from the hoth scenes

Also when piet later says "alert all commands" will you replace its BG to be next to vader because he clearly talking to the crew in the pit of the bridge?

The "yes, my lord" scene has been fixed and it no longer changes to a shot of Piette in the command centre, and the background is now correct when it switches to vader, again instead of the control room.

The pit shot is another thing. There isn't a shot of the correct pit to use apart from in Jedi, but that's when the bridge deflector shield gets destroyed and it's too chaotic to use.

Lord Grievous said:

Is this amalgamation still in ESB:R?

No, That's gone.

Monroville, I actually like that idea, but i don't think it's something i'd want to do for Revisited.

Hmm i see no big difference there ady apart the clarity of the falcon and some fixed colors.. pity the engine had more detail to the 2004 version. I think the overdone white boost made the engine looks more like GOUT..

OOps, posted the wrong snapshot. That's the 97 SE AVCHD, not Revisited, which is why the engine is so overblown. Too many layers in Vegas & enabled the AVCHD layer by mistake when taking all the snapshots. Here is the proper revisited version
