I know this has been mentioned before

"Experiences With Max Payne Graphics" from Assembly 02, presented by the lovely Skaven images/icons/grin.gif

The reason I'm posting this is I remember a few people were after it, and I just discovered today that it was available again.

So there you are:
ftp://ftp.scene.org/pub/parties/2002/assembly02/seminars/020802_1900_experiences_with_max_payne_graphics.wm v

I downloaded it and watched it and found it very very interesting, particulary the parts on animation.... very cool images/icons/grin.gif

Any chance we'll get to see some behind the scenes stuff after Max Payne 2 is released?

122 mb images/icons/shocked.gif

downloading now

[aavenr]

Yeah, I have seen this before. I think it's part of the conference material they shot at last year's Game Developer Conference. There were quite a few Remedy guys doing presentations there. It used to be available at some official site. Anyway, pretty interesting stuff but it's usually very technical for the most part, just so nobody downloads with the wrong idea.

[shadow_ninja]

that guy was nervous as hell. i could hear it in his voice!!!! images/icons/tongue.gif images/icons/tongue.gif plus it was hella boring,BUT
it was informational on how they did all the cool stuff im max payne! images/icons/grin.gif

122mb! Ok well *adds it to the dl queue*

I'll get to it once I've downloaded all 800mb worth of other files I've got in the queue.

[Wrathstalker]

That was really intresting...

[Maddieman]

Fantastic, I thought I'd missed out on this one. Just a shame it's going to take me 10 hours to download. graemlins/doh.gif

Thanks chimera. images/icons/smile.gif

Whew, finally finished downloading and watching it. Interesting.

I'd seen some of the video clips Skaven showed, but I hadn't seen this presentation before, I wonder if they've been released somewhere else too.

I bet Skaven hated having to perform in front of the class back in school images/icons/tongue.gif

[biXen]

Hehe, he seemed VERY nervous, but I know it can be hell to present something when you actively have to do stuff on a computer at the same time. Were some interesting bits in there.

[Champ32]

That army ops is double the download size isn't it?
P.S. The video was pretty neat

[KillJoy]

This video makes Skaven sound like he made the entire game.

Nice work Skaven, any chance we will see something similiar for MP2 perhaps?

[Kev_Hectic]

Cool. I'm Downloading it right now.

[shadow_ninja]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">As I mentioned earlier this stuff had already been available on an official source a long time ago. However, I was wrong about this being the 2002 GDC. It was actually ASSEMBLY 2002. You guys might want to check out the rest of the videos at ftp://ftp.scene.org/pub/parties/2002/assembly02/seminars

I think there's some stuff by Markus Maki (he's Remedy's president if i am not mistaken) on the business side of things and maybe some other Remedy guy i can't recall.

Not bad, there was some interesting behind the scenes stuff there.

[Nessus]

Thanks Chimera, I always enjoy behind the scenes gaming info.

[Qtipie]

(and gosh, does sam lake look young...)<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Well, he's not old, y'know. Then again, he's no young whippersnapper. images/icons/smile.gif But I digress, I actually watched this video again about a month ago. Good, good stuff.

I can't believe I just said "whippersnapper".

[biXen]

Whippersnapper? Reminded me of one of the guys in Jagged Alliance who called people snapperhead or something images/icons/smile.gif Damn those games owned... another dev. team gone straight to hell... prolly walking around in Canadian woods nowadays...
