Nerv's entry for CBS scene contest

Septimus: I cannot give it a rating 3 at this moment due to the lag at the credit scene. Even our mini-moderator bounty hunter said the same thing.

You have 2 option.

1) Fix the lag at the ending scene.
2) This map would be rejected at 1/6/2009 if there is nothing been done to fix the lag.

Update News : Since Ralle have explain the new status information. The status of this map would be set to Rejected (until updated)

 

[Septimus]

1) Make the description at hiveworkshop better, all it ever written was how long the scene was and it was for contest.
2) Lack of map description, fix it.
3) Why the archer chase him? You could be more specific to tell us the detail.
4) Credit scenario was lagging, you probably have a serious memory leak in your trigger. I do not mind a memory leak at single player cinematic, but when the cinematic is lagging it was unacceptable.

3/5 from me at this moment and mini-moderator vote was REVIEW. Till you fix the lag at credit scenario, I don't think it was ready for approval.

80 - 89%	4/5	Approved
90 - 100%	5/5	Approved

The table may vary if needed.

Originality: 4 points -
Well it is a scene but just a random fight isn't original.

Scripting: 7 points +
Interesting and decent effects I must say.

Terrain: 4 points -
Need a lot more work on the terrain, to plain in parts, at the begging its realy bad.

Bug Free: 10 points +
Runs fine.

Gameplay/Fun Factor: 6 points +
Short nice battle scene. Although some things just can't get in my head, how can they miss so much, and then he defends from the imba ranger and the other chick kills him.

Lag: 3 points -
Credits laged quite a lot.

Proper submission and crediting: 3 point -
More info, images, credit the model authors here on the site.

Camera work: 7 points +
More then decent, too fast in places.

Dialog: X
No dialog cinematic, so I'l just put an X here.

Music and or voice acting: 8 points +
Nice use of music.

In overall: 52 / 90
57% minimal 50% met.
For the hive grade: 2/5 I suggest this map for: Approval
-------------------------------------------------
In overall it is a interesting battle scene. You need to add more info here work on it maybe a bit, the lag mostly. The story isn't neccesary that much since it's only one scene.

Good Luck, bounty hunter2

I don't wanted a approval for this scene^^
I just uploaded it caus... ye... dunno^^.. It's just made for the scene contest.. and I was the only one who participated before the deadline -_- ...

4) Credit scenario was lagging, you probably have a serious memory leak in your trigger. I do not mind a memory leak at single player cinematic, but when the cinematic is lagging it was unacceptable.

Leaks in this map?.. isn't really important in my point of view. and come'on.. leaks' can't be the reason for laggs in a 2min cinematik(including credits)... caus I've no period triggers with point leaks... well okay I've some^^ but I turned them off after using it... (and it doesn't lag on my computer... )

You need to add more info here work on it maybe a bit, the lag mostly.

btw... which lag do you mean? I don't get what u mean... when does this lag happen?..

Lag: 3 points -
Credits laged quite a lot.

ah now i see... well the credits won't be judged^^


The contest rules was to make a scene between 60 and 90 seconds... and I DON'T have to tell a story just a little scene fitting to the theme "hunt"

greets

Not only region leak, there is many thing else that leak such as unit group. And don't think a 2 minutes cinematic won't lag just because of it, even a 15 second map would lag if there is a serious memory leak occur.

I liked it very much.

You are inspirated by GreatNoob work, arent you?

Efects were very good, and it was original. But the camera in some parts was moving ugly.

But the credits were the best part, very interesting idea, it could be little bit laggy but it didnt have effect on watching.

Terrain is not very important in these battle cinematics, it was just average as it should be, but nothing special though.

4/5

I'm not a noob ... I know the sorts of leakin... ._.
One leak won't cause lag, it's geting noticeable when you come up to around 200 leaks The more leaks you stack up the worse lag you will get.
I just wanted to say that I can't believe that those leaks (I've got in this scene) causes some lags.. caus I DIDN'T notice any lags :C....

GreatNoob work?.. sry what?^^.. I don't know him

Terrain is not very important in these battle cinematics, it was just average as it should be, but nothing special though.

Ye I think that too^^
Thanks Restor for your postive feedback^^
