I love it! Your timing on the hit effect is so flippin’ crisp, and the CG work is SUBERB!

This is teeny-tiny niggle from an animator who has composited WAY too many blast effects - you might wanna adjust the opacity/blending mode of the smoke effect that is sitting over the sparkler to better match the wide shot. I used to composite blasts the way you’ve got it now, but after doing a million of them, I switched the way I layered/masked them and the results were much better.

You don’t need to change what you’ve got, I’m the only one on Planet Earth who will notice, lol! But if you composited the effect in AE, I’d be happy to take a quick look at it. Bottom line, this is amazing work!!!

In what way? It’s not on any blending mode. The element itself has a transparent background, changing it to screen or lowering the opacity will just reveal what’s behind it. I did this composite in Resolve’s Fusion.

Re-did the Falcon shot without all that stupid added grain. I don’t know what I was thinking putting a layer of grain over the already over-grained Blu-ray:

Hey everyone, quick question… for the Greedo sequence, do you prefer the subtitles to fade in and out, or just to end?

Facebook Update from Adywan

---

Hi Everyone.

Just a quick update. Haven’t been able to be active online at all lately due to internet issues. Changed our internet from copper broadband to full-fibre broadband ( going from 60mb to 500mb for £10 less a month than i was paying for the slower speeds) and things didn’t go very smoothly . Had hardly any connection since its been installed. Engineer visits keep getting cancelled along with provider and installer passing the buck as to who’s fault it is all the time. Can’t even switch back to the old copper broadband because they removed the copper connection going to the house ( which they weren’t supposed to do).

Anyway, just want to say a big than you to everyone that donated. We hit the target to raise the $1000 so it has now been matched by the kind donator. It’s such a shame that the pound is so strong against the dollar at the moment with $1000USD converting to about £750.00GBP, so still a little way off the £2000 target for the monitor /drives. I have the wash and cure station and 3d printer all set up and the monitor , while out of stock at the moment, will be in stock mid next week so i will be picking that up the moment it is in stock.

Don’t know when my connection will get sorted so i may be quiet for a while if they cancel next weeks appointment again

Thanks again

Good news.

Here’s what I have so far, banged out relatively quickly:

Any pointers or things I should add/tweak?

PM’ed you.

No May the 4th update?

I cannot teach him. The boy has no patience.

He turn to the dark side…😵‍💫

Sorry. I have to be more responsible with what I say on here.

It’s ok. Don’t be too hard on yourself…

This is a call for help or advice:
There is a continuity error during the last battle after Obi-Wan is killed and Luke is firing his blaster like a madman… Han tells him to lock the door, and he shoots the door panel- fine.
The problem is that once we cut to insert the door panel, it is a completely different version, and it seems to be a zoomed-in version of a previous explosion during the Cellblock ambush. Using visual reference, I’ve constructed the door panel (which there is no example of online) using simple shapes. I need someone to create a 3D model of not only the panel but the wall so that I can comp in an explosion. If anyone has any experience with 3D modeling, that would be very helpful. Other advice or ideas are also welcome.

Correct panel vector illustration:

Thanks for listening. Any other comments or questions would be very helpful.

Hey, again apologies for the delay, I just restarted work on rendering the sequence, should be ready soon.
In the meantime, here’s another finished shot to hold you over until then…

I changed the Tie Fighter flight path to match the previous shot and replaced the explosion with a higher quality re-colored source.

Hello My friends. This is is amazing. I’m trying to get it for the Mac and @That guy with no name seems to have donwloaded it. May you guys give me the link to the Mac verison of the build. Thank you everyone.

Again, it’s currently in development. I have a testing version… It should be public soon. Williarob is working on it. apologies.

I just sold my sixth kidney. Hopefully that will do it.

What does that mean?

It’s a joke (I hope).

Sorry about the delay. Got sick last few days. will render soon.

Hello to all, I had a suggestion for a fix in RotJ:R if Adywan would entertain it. If someone has brought it up before, I apologize for the redundancy.

In the last shot of Vader’s unmasking and death scene when the camera pans down with Luke’s head, I noticed that Vader’s collar piece for his helmet is missing, and we only see Sebastian Shaw’s chin and the side of his face.

This is something that has bugged me for years when watching RotJ, and it would be great to see it fixed!

Side note: I downloaded both ANH:R and ESB:R this past weekend, and they were excellent!

Yeah, I one-up that! Great idea! ANH:R HD is gonna be even better!

I just donated another $50.

How did the change get into this mess? It seems to be made to suffer. It’s the change’s lot in life.

Seriously? Are you just trolling now?

There is a subtle change made to R2 in this shot in the 2019 transfer, in case you didn’t know. Will you be using it for ANH:R HD? I know it’s not much of a change, but it’s still a change.

https://i.ibb.co/hxsCs4gL/IMG-1239.png

Probably a “fix” more than a “change”, I’m sure Ady would have done the same himself.

I have logged it for examination for VisComps.

If Adywan was to fix a few more things in TESB:R, would he do what was done in the 2019 transfer, and fill in the dark spaces in the upper right corners of the shots of Luke’s X-Wing sinking?

I think he said he wouldn’t be doing more work on ESB. At least no new changes.

The first finished sequence of V.2 is coming tomorrow, 4/27.
Stay tuned.

hharlan23 said:

Never mind. I figured it out. We just have to read the thread.

You’re extremely rude. Please read your comments out loud before you post. unnesacary.

hharlan23 said:

Now we would like to see your progress posts on the Jurassic Park restoration that you’re making. But there’s a little problem with that, TWGWNN, isn’t there?

I don’t understand what you’ve just said.

hharlan23 said:

That’s just a song.

oops. Sorry, fixed it.

hharlan23 said:

Because whenever we try to get a code, nothing is there whenever we look on our emails. Can you help us?

Emails? What?

I think Tw1tchY is saying that he’s having a hard time getting into the forum, the same as I am.

If you need an invitation code, just ask. Why are y’all being so vague? “sign up limitation”.

They all look alike.

They don’t.
