@SuperPontikka I used helicopter in first person view mode only in air and no airbreak. The still visible parts of the blades and the helicopter on top and bottom were cut out during editing.
it never seizes to amaze me how much detail, thought and effort is put into the environment of gta 4. it makes you wonder why the hell games like COD or Halo still remain the most popular. i mean those games only require the IQ of a monkey to play, and they are mass produced crap that is made one year after the other, and the attention to detail really isnt that good neither is the story, and gameplay sucks.... and yet those crappy games still rank their position near the top...
@Ulansananelan shut up shut up shut up SHUT UP!!! you wanker , even your dog thinks you are a wanker and it only hangs around you because you feed it , It actually hates you and wants you to die too. I looked up the word " wanker " in the dictionary and it just said " Wanker : Ulansananelan is a wanker "
@MachStudios Not really many views. I guess FSX is a much smaller niche than GTAIV.............it's just good to get all the homages to Koyaanisqatsi together..........we need more!!
Great video. I really only watched it to get an idea of how closely Liberty City is based on New York, as I haven't played the game, so to hear some Philip Glass was a very pleasant surprise, and you've reminded me to watch Koyaanisqatsi again so thanks!!
It's very good, but we've seen these scenes many times before. You should show more details, make the viewer feel like he's actually in the city interacting with people and the environment. Just my opinion...
I've used the Xbox360 version of the game to create this film. I loved playing the game and if you like that kind of games it might be worth upgrading your computer.
@MachStudios How did you use the Xbox 360 version to create this? Your scenes are perfect! The time lapse really gives it another level of immersion. But how did you do it? Namely, how did you work the camera movements and the time lapse? I'm intrigued!
@ncn8ochaser : For time lapse shots just record long enough sequences and the time compress with a video editor. Static camera shots where done in 1st person view from a bike or car. Aerial shots where done 1st person view when flying the helicopter. These were the most tricky since you have to fly very very very slow because of the time lapse and you are not allowed to do any control/correction of the flight during the shot, a lot of try an error and hours of recording went into this.
@MachStudios Jesus! That's exactly what I was thinking but good lord that turned out good! Damn perfect, man! I don't know how you managed to get it to look so smooth but you did an awesome job! Much respect.
This video is a reference to the movie/documentary Koyaanisqatsi of Godfrey Reggio, using one a compostion of Philip Glass that is written for that movie.
Great video man, I don't think many people have gotten a grasp of how vast and alive Liberty City is, it took me a while to realise the full scale of the game
Amazingly smooth zooms. The ground level shots that was sped up looked awesome. The traffic circle sync was very well done. Can you imagine some Narration over this after the intro. This could be developed so much from this point. Very inspiring. Music was excellent.
I've taken your advice, and begun a series of machinima inspired by the movie baraka, i made the first part last night, i'll send you a link when it's up here.
Wonderfully done. There were times in this that it was hard to see that this was machinima and not live action! The idea of making the city the central character was inspired! Well done.
Stillwater is better, but I love Liberty City to!

@FlippyDogLP longest recording was for 1 hour or so. Not a real problem since I compressed the video
from the Xbox on the fly to Mpeg2 so not too much data was created. Then I time compressed that shot and deleted the original to save disc space.
