Xonotic - Deathmatchers - The Movie

A Xonotic clan movie featuring my clan 'deathmatchers'

featuring: ai,cribozai,fruitiex,Justin,kojn,morfar,Unknown[NF]

Majority of the footage is from Xonotic 0.1 (alpha at the time), so most of the footage is without strafe jumping, so just the standard bunnyhopping movement in 0.1, some clips are from 0.5, but 90% are from 0.1 demos. Movie clips were recorded from a Xonotic 0.5 build (beta), the latest and current version.

I am aware of some errors in the movie, also CTF DOES have brightskins, just that because most of the demo's are 0.1 for some reason in Xonotic 0.5 they would not work with older demos, obviously something had been changed, I have had to increase the brightness in some scenes to make it easier for the viewer to see the player's due to this, but hopefully it won't detract too much from the viewing experience.

In this video you will not see mainly 'ZOMG' frags like in 'farewell' the nexuiz video by PCLizard, but you will see some funny moments, good frags, frag runs, and most importantly, team-work.

This movie features CTF team-captures by deathmatchers vs a pickup team and [BOT]. Every clip is either vs [BOT] in clan games in 3v3/5v5 CTF, pickup games, duel, tdm, or versus experienced Xonotic players, there is no public footage in this movie, so you can be sure that the skill level, co-ordination and teamwork is of a higher degree then if I had used footage from public games.

I hope this movie deviates from the standard Nexuiz/Xonotic frag movie, and that more people get into making more complex videos of the game.

This video is not only a tribute to the movies which helped inspire me but also to Xonotic, and my team-mates and the community in general.

Thanks to everyone who helped make this movie possible.

Credits for song choices and inspiration go to the UT movies 'Levitation UT Movie' by ninjagaz and Px UT CTF movie. I decided to use two songs out of these as they were my favorite when I watched these videos back in the day, and so this is also a tribute to these classic UT movies - therefore credit to be given to these movies for using these songs first. The credits song, I chose as I just wanted something high-tempo but something that was relaxing also to wind down the video and say thanks to the community and players.

Lastly, I hope this shows people a little bit of what Xonotic is like, and the potential in this project considering that it is still not even at a 1.0 build yet (will be the next release :) ).

I will be releasing a 'gold' edition, that will be in x264 once i can get it to encode properly, and fix out some colour issues etc, but for now I declare this movie complete :)

Any questions I can answer in the comments box or via message.

Enjoy.
