what about now:
what about now:
If I may say something about this shot.
The background looks good… The theatrical version was red and was not tinted blue to make it purple.
The Special edition was Blue without enough red to make it Purple.
It should be purple but some reason it’s either Blue or red.
I would go with theatrical version and add blue tint possibly more shadow detail. Certainly despezialized has detail on 3P0’s black chest which I’ll assume was upscaled GOUT sourced.

any chance of adding the red lights to the moisture vaporator?
I like the addition of the missing targeting computer on Gold Leader pulling out the trench but It looks a little low in the frame.
Keep up the good work.
That video gave me an idea, I’ll retry the shot using the 4K Blu-ray source. it will probably have more detail and be easier on the eyes.
what was wrong with the original background from the movie
the background had no detail instead it was just a blob of color.

eh…I’m not sure. There’s not enough feathering I think. it looks too sharp. Again, it’s more noticeable on 3PO because he’s more out of focus.
If I add more feathering the halo would appear again.

I certainly appreciate you tackling this shot. It needed a bit more love years ago.
I’d say you’re pretty close! There’s still some halo-ing around the characters (I’m seeing specifically their heads). And the background seems maybe still too in-focus? I think it’s 3PO that’s throwing me off. Isn’t he kind of out of focus in this shot? I’m trying to remember now…
Yeah threeio really looks weird in this shot, really blurry really dark.
Does anyone own a threepio costume and a camera?
New background (WIP)
feedback?

I have been meaning to ask: what is different in these pics compared to the original?
The officer’s insiginia has been changed to make him a captain, as thats what he is in the books/credits.
I also added the targeting computor that originally was missing from the scene
Anyone have a link?
I’ll send you one i a bit, okay.
Wow! I’ve been going through all of your pages on this thread checking out the progression, and I’m honestly in shock and awe! This project of yours is going to be amazing. I can’t wait for the release or even more updates.
Thanks for the kind words man.

Amazingly made video man.
Any news on when this edit will be available?
Most of all the effects and editing changes are now completed.
Pretty much all that’s left is the lasers/Lightsabers.
after that’s done it’ll take me about 2 weeks to do the audio, and then the edit will be done! so hopefully this edit will come out before 2023!

Geez. Some of the users on these forums are insufferable. The entitlement in their questioning is unreal. This is a fan project. They’re gonna make it the way the way want. If you don’t like it, make your own edit.
well said.

Why exactly were Vader’s lines “Your powers are weak, old man” and “You should not have come back” switched in the original ANH:R? You never gave a reason.Yeah, he will be fixing all that.
and for the swapped lines, he has already explained that in a post right after the release of that sneak peek,
stating: “The lines were swapped around in the original ANH:R, so i kept it that way.”Why were they swapped in the first place?
Why do you even care?

What source was used to create the ANH_REVISITED_SD_x264.mp4?
The DVD-9 source if Im not mistaking.
Yeh, it was the PAL DVD-9
Great
