Re: Corupted 4GB avi

in your mods\bf2\Demos folder most likely. If you rendered the video using another mod.. then probably in mods\<modname>\Demos

Re: Corupted 4GB avi

I found it, it was in the mods\bf2 folder instead of the mods\prmm_02 folder.

I do have another question, is there any program that will split up the 4GB avi into smaller avi's?

Re: Corupted 4GB avi

Well if you used battlelauncher you should of done one scene at a time and rendered one scene at a time would have smaller files that way. Must have taken you foreveer to render 4gb file on battlelauncher seeing how slow it renders.

Re: Corupted 4GB avi

lol, ye I realised that when i started but I just left it to do its thing (took about an hour)

Aslo any suggestions for compression, etc?

Re: Corupted 4GB avi

Well for compression you should search on google for ".avi compressors" i cant say you will find one thats free, as most i have found are trial and only do from 50 to 75% compression. So search into that and you might find a good one. And btw should also download the latest codecs. :)

Re: Corupted 4GB avi

I'll have a look into that, depending on how much im not that bothered to pay a few bucks for something.

I keep remembering questions one after the other. lol

When you are recording, when you pause it stops recording, what about when you fast forward?

Re: Corupted 4GB avi

It will record as well, fast forward, and slow-motion as well i believe.

Re: Corupted 4GB avi

hmm maybe i'm missing something then, how would you record each scene separately if you only have the one demo file?

Thats pretty simple, when you start your bfr file, record a part of the movie, dont go throught the whole thing, and pause it where ever your first scene ends, then click quit. Exit bf2 go to battle launcher and click refresh and your scene will be there. And just render it. :) If you need more help just contact me on msn "ahsan_yaar@msn.com"
