trophy2 chance of a lifetime render
Hi guys!
OK, you all remember trophy2, right? Well, I am going to render a video in trophy2 for someone. BUT, this wont be a standard movie...
A test frame render, click the image to make it full-size (1080p).
All I need are the head textures you want me to use (at one of the sizes listed - I can use the standard ones, but those with better textures will get priority). A .rpl of the fight, and an optional .pov of the fight if you want to control the camera angles.
As you can see in the preview picture, this will be on a trophy stand, so tight intense battles are what are needed, and they will also look the most awesome! The text sign will be removed, so you can fight over the whole trophy base.
In a few days, I will hold a poll and people can select which one they want rendering, I reserve the right to not include any entries which I think won't work.
Once a winner has been picked, I will render a fast preview video so that you can test that it looks how you want, and so that you can make any last minute changes to camera positions.
Once the final render has started, it cannot be changed. Each frame will take several hours, and I will be rendering on multiple computers to speed this up.
so... Happy fighting...

Checklist:
__
| | ... large head textures (2x)

As a side note, you could post a large copy of your own head texture, so that other people can use it if they are too lazy to make one

- This movie is going to be in 1080p (that is 1920 x 1080 - your standard 15 inch monitor only does 1024 x 768 )
- This movie is going to be done with full Anti Aliasing
- This movie is going to be uploaded to stage 6 so you can watch it in high quality at 1080p, or even download it and burn it to CD to watch on your DVD player
- This movie is not going to use the standard head textures. You can provide large head textures (256 x 256, 512 x 512, 1024 x 1024) so you wont be able to see any pixelation at all!
- This movie is going to be a full 500 frames long - a normal replay, from start to finish.

Reason: added the test frame
I has a flavour
single player is fine, but I would prefer a movie where both players are fighting (yes, this is still possible in single player).
I may increase the size of the trophy base, but it will not be by much. I still want it to look like a trophy
We could do with more head textures, we still only have Ishi's (I will be doing my own at some point).

I already have the 128x128 version.
POV-Ray can smooth a 128x128 version fairly well, there is no need to resize the image if that is all you are going to do.
The reason for a 512x512 or 256x256 version is that you can add more detail, resulting in a better looking image.
