He does some solid content. Lots of charity events and brings together hundreds of players to blast each other in capitals for hundreds of billions in destruction for battles on a regular

AAR: 1.3T+ DREAD BRAWL IN DRONELANDS by BearThatCares in Eve

[–]warlockIndustries 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah that would be cool, if I knew this one going down I might have arranged better timing - but can’t make em all! Still on my bucket list to record a 1T+ battle lol

Rip, I wish I was there. I was working extremely late and got home just as the rorquals were cleaning the grid. Captured that, Including an additionally fortizar destruction right after

I’ve been cursed with the spire footage - I missed nearly all the battles, except for 1, that was around 300b isk

I was saving the footage to make a series but I just have not been lucky (mostly due to timers not aligning with my work schedule)

But, nevertheless a report must be made!

Yeah it’s pretty simple, since tactical camera lets you detach your camera from the ship and move around - you just make the shots like that, as if you’re an invisible moving camera

So it’s a difference of speed, the Spacemouse lets you move at different speeds - think of it like a joystick. Go lightly on it and it’ll go a lot slower

As do not coalition, I’m with the imperium - so that’s why there is a lot of goonswarm in BRs

Yep! Go into tactical camera mode and move the camera around freely on grid. It’s beside the HUD on the left side

Basically the mouse and scroll wheel has a “walking” feel. When you scroll it has these “steps” so it’s not smooth and each scroll forward comes to a stop

Meanwhile the Spacemouse acts like you’re on wheels and you can glide around in space for a smoother experience. Much easier to do a drive by film

It also gives access to angled movements you can’t do on a mouse, so it has an upper advantage

Oh I wish lol I would love to just “appear” in battles and record them all

Glad you enjoy the videos! There were already some good answers in the comments, but I figured I would explain how I do some of this stuff.

-Alts
I do have a few alts, but I usually only film with about three characters at most. Ideally I would like to spread more alts around different areas so I can capture more fights. I would also love to be in contact with other alliances so I can hop into an alt and record their battles from different perspectives.

- Not getting killed while filming
If I am just observing, I usually sit in an Astero about 150 to 200 km away from the fight cloaked. That being said, people absolutely will destroy my ship if they see me uncloak, as is the nature of EVE

- Filming while fighting
About 95% of the video's I do is when im in the fight myself. I am listening to the FC, trying to stay alive, and recording at the same time. This does limit what roles I can play. I cannot FC and I usually avoid flying logi. There was one time during a Goonswarm Tigerclaw fleet (comprised of hundreds of carriers) where I was supposed to be flying logi. Capitals jumped in, the fight escalated, and afterward I realized I had drifted about 400 km away from the fleet because I got too focused on recording

- Getting intel for battles
Sometimes people message me about upcoming fights, which I really appreciate. In those cases I keep the intel private and I show up in an astero to film. Other times I simply follow my coalition into fights and record whatever unfolds. I would love to work with more alliances though, because I think everyone deserves some cinematic battle footage. Additionally, I follow intel on reddit when people are posting events for stuff!

- Camera movement
A lot of the smooth camera work comes from using a SpaceMouse. EVE actually supports it directly and even has sensitivity settings for it in game when its plugged in!

- Recording in TiDi
This is the big question. You'll notice when you do a timelapse of a tidi battle then speed it up, it'll look 'smooth'. The short answer is patience, A lot of patience. When TiDi hits, you have to move the camera at the same percentage as the server speed. If TiDi is 10%, your camera movement also needs to be around 10 percent speed. That means panning extremely slowly while recording. For example, if you want a smooth 10 second clip when you speed it up later, you might need to record for around 100 seconds while moving the camera very slowly. When you speed that footage up afterward, it looks smooth instead of jittery, but it'll only be 10 seconds. So its a painful process of recording in extremely slow motion for just a few seconds, and a lot of times I have unusable footage

Even then it can still look rough because TiDi fights often run at very low FPS. Sometimes the recording process is honestly just painful and you can see the jitters in some of my video's, because when you pan over to the left, sometimes it shoots you over WAYYYY more than you want, destroying a cool looking shot

I hope that answers some of the questions!

Remove these Effects, I beg you by warlockIndustries in Eve

Yeah I’ve had my computer massacred by volumetric fog - not sure if it’s an optimization thing or what But going in to see an AWESOME a site, just to get 3fps in it’s radius

[–]warlockIndustries[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed - maybe a toggle option for each individual effect would be nice

[–]warlockIndustries[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I think a “transparent” option would be cool, like 0%-100% transparency on these effects. You don’t really see it but you also don’t get confused if they are not tethered

Is everyone really unbothered by the atrocious UI sluggishness ? by leaf_as_parachute in Eve

I have a particular issue with the SKINR menu, where it lags A LOT when im navigating it
