Scout Schwager Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Hello, this is my first machinima post. Recorded at Hope at Second Life. (Amancio II) http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Silver%20Springs/215/187/29Music: "Eastminster" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative CommonsBut what I really want to show off my my new pc rig used to record this:Dell Studio XPSCPU: Intel Core i7 CPU 960 @ 3.20GHz (3200 MHz)Memory: 18423 MBOS Version: Microsoft Windows 7 64-bitGraphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 6800 Series24" flat screen monitor, and 2nd 21" monitor, screen capture with CamtasiaI am capturing at 1280 x 720 for YouTube.The monitor is much higher rez than that. Perhaps I should reduce screen size for these.Using Space Navigator for the 1st timeEdited with Vegas Pro 9I've got about everything poss turned on in graphics - shadows etc.The long pole in the tent clearly is my Internet connection, which is DSL at 3.9-5.5 MbpsSo maybe to help with low frame rates is slow down the camera movement, and if need be speed it back up in editing. But that won't help with things that are moving in world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charolotte Caxton Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 awesome, gave me the last nudge needed to invest in a space navigator. can't wait! edit: you mentioned a second monitor. does that influence the machinima making process in any way?

Scout Schwager Posted June 28, 2011 Author Share Posted June 28, 2011 A second monitor gives me a place to put the Camtasia menu. But the 24" monitor is so hi res, I could make the viewer window smaller and fit the Camtasia menu under it. As mentioned in the SL wiki, a 2nd monitor is going to use more of the graphics card. So if I needed to maximize resources, I should disable it for recording. OTOH, if course its nice to have my email and stuff open in one monitor while I mess in SL in full screen on the other monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
