Future movie making will take place at the Chop Shop Duelers Mod 1.3 Test Server, IP address 12.225.192.16, NOT the main Chop Shop server. May I suggest you make the movie during the day on the weekend, rather than a weeknight. More people will be able to show up. And please make sure you have everything ready and working.
I was thinking a little about what's going on so far (what we rehearsed last night), particularly the scene where Jango shoots the swamp troopers. I thought it might be easier to do this using several smaller scenes. We could show Jango running, then the swamptroopers around the corner. Then we could change the camera to show the troopers shooting ("hey, you there!"). Then another change, show either Jango dodging or standing still as the shots miss. We could get a closeup of him sniping. We shoots three times. The camera looks back at the troopers. They are dead.
This would be much easier than having Jango really snipe them. We film the first scene up through when he sees the tropers.
Then we would film the troopers shooting. Then we would film the closeup of Jango. The troopers could be down the hallway shooting at him, but he would not have to shoot them.
Alternately, I suggest we get te troopers at low health, then line them all up so Jango can take all three out with one shot!
Good idea, the movie will be made up of shots just like that. It turns out that that motion capture card broke down due to the fact that my friend has the only chipset that makes the card malfunction. Luckily, the website had a fix for the problem and the card works fine now, we should have no more problems :o
I'm sorry I haven't made it to the past 2 shootings, I'll be on the CTF-FFA Server from 8pm - 11pm (Mountian Time) on Tuesdays adn Thursdays, that is the schedule right? :)

YES! THE QUEEN TAKES A STAND!-Claps-
I will probly use a weekend day to shoot the battle at geonosis that requires 32 players, however, the smaller scenes can be shot on tuesdays and thursdays evenings. Oh, by the way, we will need two more custom levels-Corusant Promenade (duel level), and Duel of the fates (known as dotf, ffa level). It also came to mind that Zell (who plays Jango Fett in the movie) has managed to set up a server, if Admin Amadala wants to use her server for other players, perhaps we could use Zells, although im not sure if his works yet, he and Amadala were discussing it last night before the motion capture card went down.

P.S, I have a hotmail account now, so if you must talk to me in private, my email address is lindseymr7@hotmail.com
Lindsey, since you have a hotmail account now, you should get MSN Messenger, it would be easier to work things out that way. :)
Do you mean DOTF Version 2? Done by Shadriss and another guy?
And...do we have 32 people? I mean, it's hard to find playing servers that large.
Also...just for the record...what's my guy's name (the prisoner skin/sith guy)?
We only need 32 people for the battle at geo, so we use Chop Shop server for that, as for names, since this movie takes place in the online world, all players keep their current names. Yes, DOTF version 2.
It won't let me download the files.
I meant my character's name. ie. Zell's guy is called "Jango Fett", my guy is called, "<name>"
You keep your name in the movie as well. Kinda makes you famous leter :)
OK...
Are we recording today or Sunday?
Filming takes place Monday, although im not sure if it will go through. My friends card is still acting up dispite the fix from ati, which we are starting to hate. He has about 10 zip files on his desktop from the company and none of them work, he always gets it to work the first time after he reinstalls the drivers, but then they go dead:mad: . So, filming may be postponed again, sorry fellas, ill let you know sunday night or monday morning if its a no show. Just to tell you how tricky this is-in order to motion capture from a computer, you need 2 computers, one with the game playing, and one with the card-connected together. The card has to be working 100% before he lugs it downstairs to my room to record. :(
The motion capture card has been fixed!! Filming is to begin tomorrow at 7 PM PST. We will be using the duelers mod test server provided by Chop Shop. I am currently writing up a script for all the actors in the movie-however, swamp troopers and droids will simply be asked to attack something :D . People playing the roles of jango fett, the sith guy, and the 2 jedi of the 8 jedi members in the film that play a bigger role that props will get certain directions to follow. So plz show up and play swamp troopers and jedi!! Everyone!! :D :D :D
When does yoda come in and kick some ass?
If it is tomorrow at Monday at 7 PM Pacific I can make it. Am I right in assuming I do not need any skins?
BigTeddyPaul
all you need is the yoda kinja skin which you can find at jediknightii.net and jk2 files.com.
Note: I now have a script written on the computer, email me at lindseymr7@hotmail.com for it, its in microsoft word format. Filming starts around 7 PM PST.

Can't you just post it up here? It would save you a lot of time, instead of sending it to everyone. ;)
Isnt yoda on the deathstar level?
yep, he gets the first saber fight. :D
What is the I.P. again for the server we are doing the movie on? Can't be too sure. :) :( :\
Your joking right legameboy, you can always flip back to previous pages of the thread and check them!
Server name is Chop Shop Movie Studio. IP address is 12.225.192.16
Your joking right legameboy, you can always flip back to previous pages of the thread and check them!
I had already checked them, but there was lots of talk about the Movie-Server and CTF-FFA and other servers so I had gotten confused and needed to make sure I would find the right server.
Oh, and thank you for the I.P. address AdminAmidala. :)
EDIT: Oh, lol here is was under my nose just under a different name. I'm sorry for being so pathetic. :(
It is Monday night (tonight) 7 P.M. PST. right?
In abotu 1 hour and 30 minutes from the time i posted this?
Like...right now, right? C'mon peeps, where are you?
im looking too, amadala seems to have disappeared or something, cause there are no servers under chop shop or movie servers. If you see her tell her to PLEASE get the server up and running. To all members of the movie, go to chop shop 1 hit saber kills.
I enter the I.P. to my favorites and it does notshow the server, only the I.P., I take it the server is not up or something of the sort?
we may have to use a different server tonight.
Which one? Only one shows up for me, and it's the Chop Chop realistic saber damage server.
P.S. at Lindsey, Do you have MSN Messenger? If not, it would help if you got it so we wouldn't have to post so much in LucasForums, and you could help clear stuff up that I am confused about. :D
It's UP! Use the "duelers" filter, it's got "movie studio" in it, Amidala and TeddyPaul are on it!
It wouldn't let me in. It gave me an error of something like:
Getservercommand error: a reliable command that was cycled out
Whatever that means. I will keep trying.
EDIT: Lindsey I just want to let you know I didn't have tha kamino place so I waited 20 minute to download it and then another thing came up that I needed which required 11 hours to download. I wasn't going to wait.

Let me clear up some confusion. Movie filming will take place on the server called "Chop Shop Movie Studio", IP address 12.225.192.16. Unless there is a technical problem, the server is always running. There is just one little detail: the server uses a non-standard port, and the port sometimes changes. Most JK2 servers use port 28070 at whatever IP address they are using. For instance, the main Chop Shop server's full address is 64.246.58.228:28070, which means IP address 64.246.58.228, port 28070. However, the Chop Shop Movie Studio might use port 33011, or 12.225.192.16:33011, or some other port. If the server crashes, a utility program restarts it, but usually at a different port. So the server might be using a different port the next time you try to connect. This causes a problem if you add the server to your Favorites list. If you add the server to your Favorites but then the port changes, you will just see the IP address listed, not the server name, and your Favorite wont work because the port is wrong. The solution is simple: DON'T USE YOUR FAVORITES LIST TO CONNECT TO THE SERVER! Use one of these methods:
1) When you get to the opening main screen of the game, the one that says Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast
Play Rules Controls Setup, bring up the console (shift and ~) and type
\connect 12.225.192.16
2) If for some reason that doesn't work, go to Play, Join Server, Source:Internet, Game:All, Type: All, View Empty: Yes, View Full: Yes, then click Get New List. Click the Server Name heading to order them alphabetically, then look for the Chop Shop servers in the section that begins with plain (no color) server names. You'll find all three Chop Shop servers in the "C"s.
Good job to last nights film helpers, the next few scenes will need 32 players, so ask around!!
My script is now on the web, this is at a http website, sorry bout that, its here-

Ah, so there isn't another shooting tonight like somebody told me. *smacksself* I shouldn't be so naive. :rolleyes:
Awww man, I missed the last shootings. Not the very last I know, I just know I missed my Jango part theme. :( Oh well, I guess I'll just have to wait untill next scene, at least I get to be something... I guess *Beats himself up for missing last time when movie server was up and he missed it*
Amidala who is that chick in your avatar?
Next filming will be this coming Monday at 7 pm PST. Someone else had to do jango, but we were pressed for time and the kamino fight scene didnt come out too well. So we will be doing that over. In the meantime, please ask people to join out project, as we will be doing the battle at geonosis this monday, we will need 31 people to show up that have droid skins-which you can find here

The jediknightii.net file server is down, Lindsey...so no one can download the model from that link.
EDIT: Look at the little post below and guess.
