• Inventory Split Incoming

    MassiveCraft will be implementing an inventory split across game modes to improve fairness, balance, and player experience. Each game mode (Roleplay and Survival) will have its own dedicated inventory going forward. To help players prepare, we’ve opened a special storage system to safeguard important items during the transition. For full details, read the announcement here: Game Mode Inventory Split blog post.

    Your current inventories, backpacks, and ender chest are in the shared Medieval inventory. When the new Roleplay inventory is created and assigned to the roleplay world(s) you will lose access to your currently stored items.

    Important Dates

    • April 1: Trunk storage opens.
    • May 25: Final day to submit items for storage.
    • June 1: Inventories are officially split.

    Please make sure to submit any items you wish to preserve in the trunk storage or one of the roleplay worlds before the deadline. After the split, inventories will no longer carry over between game modes.

Almost complete! Before I make this video link public. I want to see what you guys have to say and what changes I need to make. Overall, I think that all this hard work of recording really paid off. This link is just an example of what the trailer looks like. In the end, I am going to be making a Recording Event where all of us stand at the front of the Tavern. I don't really have the time or date for this Event, but just stay tone in the forums. If you see me around on the server. Shot me a message for updates.
Again. Thank you all that participated in the Trailer. Loves and kisses -RandomMinez

 
I like it, but you asked for feedback so I'l going to give it:
  • The text overlay appears to wave a bit as you transition across areas. I'd also look into using the lime green MassiveCraft font that fits the server.
  • I'd change "From Feb. 4th, 2011" to "Since February 2011" or "Since Feb. 4th, 2011"
  • at 0:23 the transition swaps between the 4 hub signs very rapidly, causing a blur that makes it unreadable.
  • The rest of the video also has the issue of being too fast and high paced. It might be nice to slow down the motion so that a curious reader can suck in all that is being shown.
  • A smaller comment mostly revolves around the lack of a resource pack. It's designed with the server build theme in mind, and helps to highlight the server atmosphere instead of generic mineman server #2456. I recall you had an issue with running the pack with shaders, though if I had to pick one over the other I'd go with the pack and maybe a simpler shader pack like chocopiclight.
Overall it's a good video that showcases everything the server offers, and well done doing this.
 
  • Make sure you eliminate all typos from your video. It's the easiest way to make it look unprofessional.
  • Improve the colour space- maybe add a colour corrector when you're editing the video.
  • It's all about the bits- increase the bitrate to something like 30-40M, and make sure the video is rendered at 60FPS, or at least a very smooth 30. Also, since your video has a lot of quick cuts and movements, enable two-pass rendering. It'll increase the render time, but the quality difference will make itself known pretty quickly.

Fantastic! Then I got some work to do.
  • Again I do apologize with the resource pack, and if I was to add it. I have to start all over recording. Since I already recorded in default.
  • "From Feb. 4th" I don't know what I was thinking. Brain farted I guess.
  • Will try to slow down at 0:23 and some other scenes. Reminder that there will be an ending scene where everyone is standing at the front of the Tavern.
  • Will change all the text to a lime green to match the Massivecraft Logo.
  • Also going to try and fix the wavey text in the beginning.
Thanks for the comment. @FireFan96

Thanks for the comment @Winterless
  • If you can. Point out the typos that I missed or anything that I can change in the text.
  • Colour Corrector. I'll give that shot and see how that looks.
  • I use a program called Sony Vegas Pro 13 and After Effects. I'll do some research on how to make the quality smooth and increase the bit rate.
 
Alright! @Winterless @FireFan96
I just wanted to knock out the easiest quest that I fixed for you guys that ask me.
  • Added lime green text.
  • Fixed "From Feb. 4th 2011"
  • While rendering. I made bit-rate to full max. 40mil.
  • Added a color corrector for all the clips with mid color burst.

What do you guys think?
 
Hm?
Sorry did I miss something? If so, then msg me if you can. Give me your username so I can figure what I did wrong.
He's joking. He thinks he's old lel.
I personally like the default texture pack. If you re-do some scenes, I wouldn't mind the switching if you pointed out that a custom resource pack exists.

Also I think the section that goes "weekly - weekends - player events" would work better as "weekly - player events - weekends", which might have been what you intended, in all likelyhood.

Thanks for showing us this! very kewl
