[SoUH] Saga of Uthas Heldbearer​

Introduction: This is just a short cinematic I made. At first, it was just a small project, but then I got interested in real cinematic making, so I think I'm going to turn it into a whole series, hence the 'saga' part. This is my first cinematic so it won't be too good. I will have screenshots soon so just wait.

Episode One: Another Day
Episode One​
Another Day​

Summary: Uthas Heldbearer is introduced to us as a normal farmer, living in a corner in the forest. He journeys on another day of his life, but this time, one with adventure. Mystical powers are given to him through a spirit and he must use them in ways he sees best.

Characters:
Uthas Heldbearer - a simple farmer that lives in a forest clearing. He is just an average man, but when he receives his powers, his attitude changes.
Spirit - a poor spirit that is slain. He helps Uthas Heldbearer in his journey.
Death Knight - the 'bad' guy of this episode. He is the main enemy of Uthas and fights him in many battles.
Shadix - the Spirit's legendary horse friend, who aids Uthas in his long runs.
Assassin - an unknown assassin that, well, assassinates many.
Sir Naihme - a noble priest that is ambushed and escapes.
Sir Altalon - a knight that is caught in a fight with the Undead.
Alzagor - a demon that is seen to be the assassin's master.
Lord Valhim - a ginormous behemoth that is Alzagor's, and maybe more, master. ??? DOOM! ??? Hint, hint, wink, nudge.
More to come...


Episode Status:
Overall Story Planning - [|||||] 7 scenes are now completed. I'm pretty much done; just need a modeller/skinner. *HELP section for more info*

-I need some SOUND help. I added music and that works perfectly fine, but sounds don't work. For example:
Code:

Action
Sound - Play (HumanArchMage Attack1)

Is there anything wrong with that? Don't worry about the events or conditions because it's part of the same scene trigger. Unless there is something wrong with that and needs a new trigger...?

Try using:
Code: 
Sount - Set sound volume to 100%

It must be because your event is Map Initialization. Play Sound cant start off of that. Make it time elapsed 1 second or something like that.

1.) It's in its own trigger with the scene, not map initialization.

2.) I use 00.01 :p

3.) How come I don't have to change the volume for music? Thanks anyway, I'll try it.

A cinematic contest from TheHelper would be pretty damn awesome, I hope they make one. Maybe around June, when people are done with school and if they choose to can focus on whatever their making a lil more and not have to worry about finals and exams and such.

Ok, I added about another minute and a half to my cinematic to make it have a better ending. I'm going to release my cinematic when/if the cinematic contest comes. Knight7770 said he will host one after he's done with his hero contest thing. I'll try to get some screenshots in...

Well, exactly, in all "previous" contests. ;) And besides, I don't know about you but I do contests for fun. We'll just have to make new rules. :) It's not cheating if the contest isn't even made yet.

Don't worry about the contest. Worry about the cinematic. :)

Screenshots are up but for only scenes 1,2,3, and 6! They don't look nice because at that view, it looks like everything is on one spot.

Go to the first post and open the spoilers and spoilers. :)

All I can say is I would never join a contest as retarded enough as to allow anything that was started before the contest started..

Well maybe, unlike you, I'm not in for fame or money or prizes. I do it for fun.
And exactly, the contest didn't even start! How do you know there's going to be one? Because I told you! If I didn't say anything about this, I could've submitted it for the contest because no one would know. If I wanted to cheat, I wouldn't be doing all of this.

And you don't have to join. :)

You sounded exactly like you were trying to cheat for fame and rep, and then acused me of it. Things like that get me pretty mad..

And you don't have to join. :)

No, I would submitt my premade cinematic, since I allready made it it wouldn't be any bother. :) I do cinematics for fun, not for fame and glory unlike you, you getting a two mounth headstart wouldn't bother me..

Putting that aside, this cinematic looks very good, Cant wait for it too come out! :thup:

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
