K I talked about this one a few days ago but didn,t tell what it was exactly. Well here you go, it's an in-game screen shot that feels just as if you were watching a real movie! I simply changed the interface.

You also get to see the first scene 1 screen shot, showing another idea I called "Rootwalking".

Hope you enjoy.

soooo pretty much another skin rihgt?
And that means you could have pretty much anything you want. But is it possible to have more than one interface, for example using the human and night elf one, although i'm not sure how you could switchemote_sweat

I have thought about this alot and almost did it a couple days ago but i realized something. A black border is boring. The race interface is something that makes wc3 cinematics different from movies. It helps give the cinematic a certain mood. If you check the thread in the cinematic forum about which interface ppl prefer, many ppl are saying that it should fit the mood. When i watch a wc3 cinematic i want to see more than what a movie can offer. If you created custom interfaces it would be much more unique and enjoyable. Jut think you could have your company logo and stuff on it or maybe some new border that help intensify the mood of the scene. :D

You wouldn't believe how immersive it gets with these actually. The screenshot cannot really deliver the true feeling you get when watchin', trust me on that =)

Agreed.
What would be really cool is if someone voiced their entire cinematic, got rid of all the subtitles, alphaed out the interface, and made a full screen movie :ggani:

yeah, it would really be cool if DK can find some professional voicers (dunno if the word is right, my english is just bad^^)...but i think he don't have to cut the whole text out then (for a better understanding)...oh my god, i hope you understand this, once more: sorry 4 the bad english 8[

You shouldnt need a quiet interface to make your cinematic immersive.;)

Actually, voice actors outside your house aren't nessasary. Unless DK is the only sibling, anyone can get the sounds they need.

Like me, I can:

1) Sound like a little boy
2) Sound like a teenager (DUH)
3) Sound like a maniac
4) Sound like an evil person
5) Sound like I am going to die soon
6) Sound like Darth Vadar :D
7) Sound like a rapper (although no one gonna put them in anyways)
8) Sound like a drunken person

It's very easy to get your voice to your desire. The only thing that's hard is to get a voice with the opposite sex. You either need to get your sister or something, or get a sound actor thing.

So to conclude, you really don't need voice actors... Wow, that was a bull**** waste of time 0_o

Hehe, it's funny because usually only movies that wont fit or something in to the screen have the black borders, usually it's supposed to have no borders at all. So you made it look like a not in full quality movie to make it feel realer :p ingenious
