Knights Reborn

Can anyone out there map? This will be a simple project, nothing fancy.
I need a map, of just a room with all the walls, ceiling, and floor one color green. Like a green screen set for a movie.

Why, you ask? Because Ive come up with a way for making special effects that will revolutionize the whole....well...my brain compacity.

I recently got a video compositing program which allows me to cut all the color out of a video so Im able to (insert extremely long explanation here) IN SHORT: Allows me to do alot of really cool stuff.

So what I was thinking, that if I had a map of a green room, I could composite Jedi Academy footage onto live action footage, hence giving me full special effects capability.

Im going to test this theory on my new live action project: STAR WARS: The Force Awakening. Ill post details on it later, but first things first:

I need a map.

i may be able to do it... i need the computer that i have the map making program on.....give me a few days!

Sure man, no rush. We havn't started filming yet so we might not need it for a while. But I would like to test it out though.

It has to be really big though, enough to fly a ship inside without crashing into walls.

this sounds like some project your working on... will this be tied in for use with the KR movie? Or something else your working on?

This "project" can be done in 30 seconds. Any noob could make this kind of "map". -just saying it.

Big enough to fly around in? You'll need to make a skymap that is green, also. The clipping distance will end up hiding distant walls so you probably will see blue sky unless you make a custom one or jack up the draw-distance.

I wasnt referring to the map Aki I was referring to what he plans to do with it... think a little before saying summit

Aww... sorry. That will take 25 sec.

Ok, sorry- lol.

Well Aki if any no00b can make it, then I guess youll have no problem at all.

But also - Is there a way to disable shadowing so it doesn't screw up my composite?

And Kane this can be used for the KR Movie as well but Im mostly using it for my live action project.

It's easy to:

-No shadows. (will make it hard if you are flying, you wont be able to see whats up and whats down... =_=)

Didn't realize that.

I don't think we will actually have to fly it though. I might just be able to move the camera around while its parked to make it look like its flying.
I won't be able to do anything extra fancy though.

Does this work?

(i haven't tested it)

Yes you really did say pathetic 2 times Aki.

It has a few glitches but theyre not a problem.

I tested a composite of me tearing Rosh Penins head off. It worked alot better than I expected. It could be alot better though...if only Jedi Academy had Anti-Alaising -_-

blabla, what glitches?

Well I suppose its the effect from being outside. Rarely youll see like a big black glitch pop up somewhere but if you turn the right angle it will go away.

That's just the engine's shitty rendering system. Kind of unavoidable.

I just got new programs. It works aLOT better than the one I had. I did a new test and it looks absolutely great.
Thanks Aki!

nO pR0bLem. =P

Haha once I finish rendering my test of me ripping Rosh's head off, I'll post it
