Uploaded as requested. Not to show off any skills since there isn't much to show here, but mainly I wanted to show people a small yet beautiful detail found in the world of Tera: fishes, something some tend to run by without noticing they excist. Finding small details like this makes for good material to shoot for video makers, and makes you realize how rich the virtual world actually is. There are even more details around to be found, even in huge scales, so those interested might want to keep looking up in the sky aswell as down under the deeper waters to spot something you might of not have known was there before.

======Q&A======

Q: How do you record your ingame footage?
A: I'm using an older version of fraps, set to capture 50 frames per second and record in half-size for this video.

Q: What do you edit your videos with?
A: Vegas Pro 8.0, I don't feel the need to get a newer version as of yet.

Q: What did you exactly edit in your video?
A: I added effects like...
COOKIE CUTTER: Darkish blue colour around the edges
GLOW: Brightest spots have a small glow effect on them
SPHERIZE: To create a fish eyeball effect, meaning the middle roundens up closer to the watcher
COLOR COLLECTOR: Brightest spots have a yellowish colour scheme, darker spots greenish, and even darker ones blueish
BORDER: You guessed it, black borders
MEDIAN: Not sure why I used it, but it's some kind of a general blur effect
BUMP MAP: Main lighting effect, you can see the light mostly coming from the left upper corner's direction
BRIGHTNESS AND CONTRAST: Didn't use this too much, but it's still there
WAVE: When I tricked my camera under the water's surface there were no underwater effects, so I had to add my own
BLUR: Sometimes I added a little blur between clips instead of just having it fade to the next one
WATER SOUND EFFECTS: Don't remember where I downloaded these but they were free sound effects
AND the more obvious ones, fade and small extra camera movement
My goal was to give a bit of a TV screen recorded feeling to it, like this could of been from a fish document.

Q: How long did it take to make this?
A: Around 1-2 hours were spent looking at the well animated fishes from several different angles (indeed I do enjoy staring at things for hours), and the editing part taking up to 6 hours the next day, mostly because I hadn't used my editor for a long time so I was freshening up my memory by playing around with all the effects and options first.

Q: Your computer specs?
A: Upgrading still in process, but right now my specs are...
Windows 7 Home Premium
AMD Athlon(tm) II X3 425 Processor 2.70 GHz
6GB RAM
ASUS HD 6950 DirectCU II 2GB GDDR5
459GB max space in both C: and D: drive, 918GB in total
... And my computer is around 2-3 years old. I think that's about all you need to know.

Q: What's the music used in this called?
A: Not sure it has a name, but you can hear it playing in the background of a lvl 45 village that's surrounded by jungle.

Q: Is this game out already?
A: It's currently out in Korea & Japan only to my knowledge, but it has been announced they're aiming for a spring 2012 release for NA/EU.

Q: How can I play this game?
A: Before it releases in NA/EU, you can't. Unless you're from Korea or Japan, or have a korean or japanese friend who owns an account and is willing to share his/her account info with you. Last option would be to buy an account illegally, but I'm not the right person to ask guidance from where or how to do that, nor am I suggesting you to do so. You're better off waiting for the NA/EU release.

Q: Will you be playing Tera when it comes out in NA/EU?
A: Most likely, it's the MMORPG I have and still am looking forward to the most of all what's coming out next year. Not exactly sure though if I'll be playing on NA or EU servers, but knowing I'd propably have less delay and more company on EU servers I've been leaning towards that decision.

Q: Will you be making more Tera related videos?
A: When and if I feel like it and have enough inspiration, and time, I might try making something for the heck of it.

Q: Do you take requests?
A: No, not really. If you feel like suggesting something, I can't really stop you, but don't expect me to make anything for you.

Q: Given the download link, can I use your video/s in my own ones?
A: If credit is given to the original creator of the clips you used, which in this case would be me, I don't mind you doing so. But even knowing this, let's just say it'd still be polite to always ask first.

  • isnt elinus resting place supposedly at the bottom of the lake?

  • @jessetrev0r According to Tera's lore, yes. I'm however not 100% certain it's this specific lake as seen in the video, I haven't paid too much attention to that part of the lore.

  • This is lovely.

  • @DilutedDreams Thank you, kind one.

  • Luxina is the man.. which is kinda ironic as she isn't a man.. but still epic stuff :D

  • @themindtunnel Don't they tend to refer to people who's gender they're not too certain of as "it"?

    ..... Bloody hell I'm a woman

see all
