Movie making tutorial for Portal 2 / Source-Engine based games

The Portal DLC will be released on the 4th october, so I thought it'd be a good time to release it a few days before. Sorry for the wait. D:

  • Question: I have seen various Portal videos panning across the scenery and such, seemingly in third-person perspective, rather than first. Is it possible to do this, or have they just noclipped and removed the portal gun and such? If it is possible, how do we do this?

  • @Izzy41630 it's called Smoothing, google it. It works for any source engine based games

  • Could you please reply? I've followed your methods and steps as best as i can, but after a few attempts i still get the same result. The video footage is about 4X as fast as normal, but the audio remains the same. I'm not sure if it is me stuffing something up with the fps but i'd appreciate it if you could give me some advice on how to stop this from happening.

    I uploaded the video, watch?v=6l6qlsLoa-A&

    It also doesn't appear to be in 720p X.X

  • @TheBoredstiff To take care of your first problem, you probably forgot typing host_framerate or set the wrong framerate in VirtualDub, try to set them both to 60 and tell me if it works then

  • so I can play with lowest settings and get highest quality for video? or?

  • @StealthB90 yep

see all

  • @warnightify did you even watch the tutorial? 0:33 well fucking explained.

  • My computer lags Portal 2 on high settings and you are saying if i use this method the video file isnt going to lag as normally?

  • @MinecraftUnited Nvm i feel dumb. Didn't see the very end. Each factor is multiplied. So i would record at a high fps and put it into vegas at a set framerate and it will automatically resample it to my set fps in vegas. Like if my vegas fps was 30 i would record in 960 to get x32 resample.

  • Where are you getting the sampling settings from? like x4-x128. Is this in vegas?

  • When I play back the demo the textures are all screwed up. The recording is at the relaxation vault in chapter 1, when you first meet Wheatley. But when I play back the demo, all I see is cracked brown tile everywhere. Please help. What am I doing wrong?
